When you come to the
Red Avocado for dinner, be prepared to change the way you see
dining. Whether you're looking for great atmosphere, friendly
faces, or just the best tasting and healthiest food in the area,
the Red Avocado is the place to be. Get away from the downtown
bar scene and take in some true hospitality. Enjoy a quiet evening
of great food and great company, whether you come alone or with
the whole family. In the summertime, the front patio and back
garden area provide great atmosphere for one of the finest dining
experiences in Iowa City.
Come on down and experience
the Red Avocado. |
