The food was good and so was the service. We enjoyed our time. Strange to me that they do an auto gratuity for 2 adults and 2 kids and then explain the tip pool, emphasizing that if we want to leave money just for the server, we need to leave it in cash.

The food was good. The wings especially. The service was just ok. No wine menu offered and the wine knowledge of the server seemed ok at best. The bread pudding was really good but the only dessert option. The over all bill was pretty high given the overall experience. I would go back for the wings and happy hour.

Everything was great. We were there for happy hour and there were half priced drinks and food. We got Brussels sprouts, quesadillas, truffle fries, and blackberry tequila lemonade crushes for happy hour prices and a chicken sandwich and left with food. It was all amazing.

The food was good, but lukewarn. I think it sat for a few before it was brought out to us. Service was a little slow. I would have expected them to have more than one bartender for happy hour, especially during the holidays.

I made a reservation for brunch for my husband's birthday on October 19th. The food and drinks were excellent. The bartenders were very friendly. Every time I go to the Avenue for lunch or dinner the service is always great. Making a reservation was so easy. We'll definitely go back to The Avenue Kitchen & Bar. Thetius
