Honestly, I didn't want to like this place. Why mess with the legendary Avenue Bar? I'm glad to say that, at least this one time, I was wrong
We came for brunch on a Saturday around 10:30 and it was relatively empty. Really good, fast, friendly service. The coffee tasted like Starbucks to me, for good or for bad. My wife had the divorciados and loved every bite of it. But my croque madam (Monsieur with an egg added) was agreed to be the clear winner between our choices.
Maybe we'll have to try dinner and drinks sometime soon.
