" Had a lovely brunch at L’Avenue! The atmosphere is lovely, and the brunch menu was delightful as well, though on the pricier side. My French toast was divine but lighter on portions than I’d hope for. The service was exquisite, and the experience overall was quite memorable. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband surprised me with a dinner at L'Avenue for my birthday, and it was a good choice! The ambiance was romantic, with soft lights and beautiful decor. I loved the escargot as a starter. To follow, I had the duck and my husband had the filet mignon. Both dishes were cooked impeccably. The dessert selection is superb as well! The service was attentive without being intrusive. A great spot for special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to have dinner with my girlfriend here after shopping at Saks and it was nothing short of delightful! The chic atmosphere, paired with attentive service made our special evening even more enjoyable. We shared the yellowtail carpaccio and that was a big hit! For mains, the duck was tender and packed with flavor. Plus, don’t skip the dessert! The s'mores were exceptional. Overall a fantastic place to make new memories! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here on a Saturday night with my partner and had a delightful experience. The ambiance was classy, with beautiful lighting, and our waiter was very kind and attentive. The duck I tried was one of the best I've had. However, I didn’t feel that the portion sizes were quite enough for the price. Still, the enjoyment we had overshadowed this one shortfall. Definitely going back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Took my parents for dinner at L'Avenue and they absolutely loved it! They were very impressed with the decor and the ambiance. The staff were very welcoming, and the food was exceptional. I had a taste of the duck liver and my dad ordered the Filet mignon. Everything was delightful, especially the s'mores dessert. I'd rate it a 9/10 experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful experience! This was my second visit to L'Avenue, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere feels luxurious without being too formal. We enjoyed the buttered popcorn as a starter, which was an intriguing choice. My husband ordered the steak and was thrilled with the cooking, while I had the pasta that was just divine; also, they knew just how to pair our wine! The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and the dessert options were endless. A truly memorable dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at L’Avenue was very nice. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, creating a classy vibe. I had the duck breast, which was done very well; it was tender and flavorful. Definitely recommend the cocktails, as they were quite creative. I didn't love the dessert selection; I found them slightly overpriced for what they offered. However, I’d still return for the ambiance and main dishes! " (*Curated Review*)
