Avenues Proper

"While this place is nice, the food is mediocre. My pasta came out all clumped together tossed in the sauce. The flavor was not desirable and I didn’t finish my food. I will say the lemon ricotta was great. The waitress did make it a point to come over and say she only make $2.50 an hour and that she relies on tip. I would say pick another place to eat. Avenues proper either pay your staff more or teach them some manners. Tip is dependent on how much the customer wants to leave not what your waitress is wanting them to leave."

"It took a minute to be seated as no one was up front. The flights were great. The food was tasty but came out way fast. It’s impressive I also wonder what was premade. The server Beau was on point even when there were tons of issues with the beer tap. I’d come back. Try it for yourself."

"The food is really good here. It looks like they take time and make sure an item is done right before putting it on the menu. The beer offerings were decent and they have a nice selection of mixed drinks."

"2.5/5 First, the server we had was great! The food was definitely not “made from scratch with local ingredients” as the menu describes. For the prices, the quality is just not where it needs to be. The Mac & Cheese was good, but the noodles were from a box (we asked). Still, tasty. The kitchen really struggled with the clams. Five of them were still closed when served. Not sure how that is allowed to leave the kitchen like that. The server was awesome, and she asked for fresh clams, and this time only two were under cooked but the reduction was burnt. Maybe a bad night for the clams? The stroganoff was fine, but again boxed noodles. Not from scratch, big chunks of fat (pictured), not really worth the $27. The server comped the clams, which was very generous. Seems like a tug of war between brewery food and fine dining, but the brewery is definitely winning and the food is losing."

"Okay so we tried to go to Avenue’s Proper three times & finally got in!!! No wait on a Thursday night, which was fortunate. We sat on the bar side. Our waitress was great, very helpful & attentive. We tried a few cocktails: The Proper Daily & the Pomegranate Margarita. Both were really good! I always love me a good margarita! We grabbed two appetizers, the Pommes Frites (basics fries) with the best proper beer aioli sauce!! It was delicious! We also tried the brussel sprouts. For some reason in my head, these were not going to be shredded, even though the menu is clear that they are. The dried cherries were a great touch to this appetizer. Food wise, I didn’t feel like they had great vegetarian options except like a veggie burger or a salad. I ended up getting the carbonara pasta, minus the bacon. The pepper was really strong & overwhelming for me with this dish. My friend wanted salmon but with Valentine’s Day a few days before we went, they were fresh out of both the fish & chips & the Atlantic salmon option so he opted for the chicken & waffles which ended up being really good. We also had a puddling type coffee dessert. I can’t remember what it was called & it was okay but I probably wouldn’t get it again. There was a jello texture to the middle layer. It was different. I was more excited to try this place, then I felt leaving. It was cute & I’m glad I got to try it with all the hype I hear about it."
