• French • Long Branch
Booked 3 times today
Discovering the experience of dining in a place such as Cannes or Nice was never easier than now with the opening of the French Bistro and Raw Bar, Avenue. The only difference between dining at Avenue and dining along the Côte d'Azur, is that your gaze lands on waves on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Avenue is located along our side of the pond, on our own eastern shores in Long Branch, New Jersey. This gleaming new restaurant is designed by the internationally renowned architect David Collins, and the collaboration is nothing short of amazing.

    Last night, my lady and I had one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional—especially from our waiter, Danielle, who went above and beyond to make our evening unforgettable. The food was beyond delicious, easily ranking among the best meals we’ve ever enjoyed. What truly blew me away was the thoughtful surprise from Danielle: champagne glasses to celebrate our anniversary. That personal touch made the night even more special. Honestly, this was one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had at a restaurant, and we’ll definitely be coming back.

    Had an amazing dinner with Girls Night Out, there were 7 of us. Wonderful service, food was great, but I have to put this here: The French Onion Soup was to die for, the best I have ever had.
