| - I come here because its location is very convenient for me. I'm surprised I haven't reviewed it before!
In the past, I was thankful for avenue because it took a rather large reservation on a Saturday for my birthday. They were able to seat like 10-12 people. The service was good, and our party liked what they got.
My issue with many of the dishes I've had from here is that they tend to be on the saltier side--the curds, dips, chicken (when I ate it) and fish. It's been a consistent issue during each of my visits, but normally another component of the dish makes up for it.
On my most recent visit, we just went for drinks and a snack after work on a Friday. The place was packed, but the bar is first come first serve. Luckily there were two seats available. I ordered the mulled mule. This tastes like those little cinnamon candies you used to get back then. It's pretty good, but I got tired of the taste after awhile. We also ordered the curds. Besides being salty, the cheese did the thing where every bite you take, it stretches and stretches. Yum! The bartender was hard to get a hold of to get water and order more drinks, but it was a Friday after work so he was pretty busy.
I noticed they had a veggie pot pie which was interesting to me because you can never find that in restaurants. Will go back to try that next time!
