    We came to celebrate my dad's birthday a few nights ago. The waitstaff was exceptional, Chris and David were the best! Very attentive service despite how busy it was. The drinks and food were great, too. I had the Aristocat which was delicious. The bacon and arugula flatbread and bucatini pasta were top notch. My dad's salmon was a bit bland and the steak frites had a small portion of steak for the price. However, still one of the most decent meals I have had in the area in awhile. I can't wait to go back. You definitely need a reservation. The restaurant was completely full until closing time and the bar is rather small so not a ton of room to wait over there. The hostess was very sweet and seated us right away. A great place to come with friends, family, or for date night. Kudos to this lovely restaurant and the amazing servers.

    This is our first time at Avenue. It is by far one of the top restaurants in this area. The food was superb. The waitstaff was exceptional. We will certainly make this our go to restaurant for a nicer dining experience.

    One of my favorite places in the area. Food is delicious and we were able to snag bar seats (the bar space isn't huge but the bartenders are good about having people move down so more can fit!). Also love that they're one of the only places I've been able to find a decaf espresso martini!

    I've been to Avenue a few times now and like it very much. It's a bit of a drive (from home), but as it happens, it's a good half-way point for dinner out with some friends who live southwest of Medfield. Reservations are essential here. Every time I've visited, it's packed! I suppose that's partly due to the fact that it's probably the best dining out spot in Medfield; but also because the food, the service and the setting (a former hardware store downtown) are top-shelf. Speaking of top-shelf, the bar is on the small side but it's an option if you can't get a table and can squeeze in there. Note that that area of the restaurant is rather crowded and louder than the back half of the dining room. No pictures this time, but our party of 4 really enjoyed our entrees -- and our appetizers, too. There were several imaginative cocktails on the menu, and the "right" kind of white wines for our companions on the wine menu. There's no doubt "Avenue" will remain our go-to spot when meeting friends southwest of where we are.

    Never disappoints! This place is quaint and hopping! We are from New York visiting our son and his family and have eaten here before. Service was superb. The chicken and broccoli flatbread...definitely tasty. Bolognese and chicken Parmesan were both delicious. Will absolutely come back on our next visit!

    Made a reservation at Avenue and it did not dissapoint. It was packed, so definitely make a reservation! The atmosphere is trendy but casual with a few TVs for sports. The service was spot on. There were so many people I was expecting to wait a while for the food, but it came out quickly and the server was attentive. The food was very good! I recommend the steaks (with fries of course) and all of the apps have been good. Will definitely be back!

    Another great night at Avenue. I will focus on staff this time, we had Ben. We have to say he was one of the best waiters we have had in a while. He was extremely attentive and personable without being overbearing. It was Valentine's Day, so he made sure that we were able to enjoy each other, but always came at the most opportune time to make sure everything was going right when we asked him questions about the food or drinks. He was very knowledgeable, gave us his personal opinions, but allowed us to make our own choices, the manager Mark also checked in on us at the beginning and midway through our meals to make sure there was nothing we needed. This is also a big plus showing that CUSTOMER SERVICE is one of their main priorities. I will also, of course rant about the food my wife had the chicken Parmesan, which came in a beautiful Bolognese sauce on perfectly cooked chicken, and a very large portion . I had the veal Bolognese and it was also extremely tasty loaded with veal just enough sauce to complement.. although we were full, we had to have dessert because it was Valentine's Day so we went with the butterscotch brownie dessert. The brownie was warm and felt like it came out of the oven ice cream had such a strong butterscotch flavor combination of both terrific..

    The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It's so nice to have such a great restaurant so close-I don't have to go all the way into Boston for a good food. I love that they have a mock tail menu. I highly recommend their Olive Oil cake.
