Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
AVI | Seabar & Chophouse runs a broad drinks program that covers cocktails, wine, beer, spirits, and nonalcoholic options in one menu. Cocktails include named classics and house drinks with specified brands, while the wine list spans major varietals by the glass and bottle. Local Kansas craft beers sit alongside domestic and imported standards. The spirits list moves from well-known vodka and gin to aged Scotch and mezcal. It is a comprehensive, crowd-pleasing beverage selection rather than a narrowly focused bar program.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Avi Classic Martini, made with Ketel One vodka or Hendricks gin and served up or on the rocks with blue cheese-stuffed olives. For a lighter cocktail, the Paloma uses Don Julio Blanco with grapefruit and grapefruit soda. Wine drinkers can choose from more than 20 by-the-glass options, including Decoy Pinot Noir at $17.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- This program suits groups with mixed preferences: cocktail drinkers who want recognizable brands, wine drinkers who value by-the-glass variety, and beer drinkers looking for local Kansas craft options alongside domestic standards. The nonalcoholic selections, including a mocktail and Heineken 0.0, make it workable for those skipping alcohol.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails are $10 to $15, with most named drinks at $12 to $15. Wine by the glass runs $6 to $17, and bottles range from $29 to $160. Beer is $3 to $7. Spirits are $6 to $45 per pour. Nonalcoholic beverages are $3, with the mocktail at $8 and Heineken 0.0 at $6.50.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The drinks menu is organized into Beer, Wine, Liquor, Cocktails, Martinis, and N/A Beverages sections, giving each category its own space. The wine list stands out for its range, with 20+ by-the-glass options and a bottle selection that moves from a $29 Chardonnay to a $160 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon.
