The restaurant staff met us at the front door and escorted us to our table. The staff was friendly and courteous. We had cocktails and then Steak tartare for an hors d' oeuvrewas. it was prepared tableside. Following that we ordered mussels served with three delicious sauces along with frites. The wine was very good and the decor of the restaurant was modern and contemporary. We plan to return.

Had a really nice meal at L’Avenue. Sean was our waiter and was excellent. Made good recommendations on beer and food. I had the Caribbean Sea bass and my husband had the grouper special. Both were very good. Also tried the mustard soup. Who knew there was such a thing! Finally had the Crepes Suzette for dessert. This was made at our table and was excellent. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

The most unique cuisine on the island. 5-star service at a relaxed pace for a pleasurable dining experience. Fairly priced with excellent variety of menu choices from mussels, to Belgian stews, to exquisitely prepared seafood and beef entrees. Don’t leave without experiencing the tasty, table-side prepared Crêpes Suzette. Most reasonable evening meal out that we had. Full bar, wine list, and selection of Belgian Beers. So good we went back two nights later.

The restaurant offered a series of off the menu specials and the carrots soup, in particular was excellent. The bone marrow was also excellent with notes of garlic and herbs. Drunken rabbit was an experience.
