| - The food isn't worth more than 3 stars but we were very fortunate to be serviced by Jose, who is truly an outstanding waiter. He took care of our extremely large party and handled our requests and orders with nothing short of grace and professionalism. Furthermore, our party was split into two tables (one of which wasn't even in his original area to cover) and he managed this additional load with no issues, even taking the initiative to provide refills on everyone's drinks before we even needed to ask and making sure the bill was handled efficiently. He made the experience dining here very enjoyable - thank you Jose!
As for the food, it's fine but nothing special. I think it's nice that they offer breakfast foods in the afternoon. My recommendations include their club sandwich, Frisco melt, omelets, and sourdough toast. Avoid the chicken & waffles, wings, and poached eggs (I'm not sure how anyone can mess up poached eggs, but my order looked like snot). Avenue Cafe is obviously not the type of place one should go to eat unless they're staying at the MGM; it's a convenient option and with a waiter like Jose, a pretty pleasant one at that.
