Whenever my husband and I go looking for breakfast places, we have to find something for me and something for him. I prefer a more bougie breakfast, and he prefers a country breakfast. I had a spinach and feta cheese omelette which was absolutely delicious. Lots of feta in it, lots of spinach, and I requested mushrooms. The mushrooms were fresh, not from a can. The breakfast potatoes were awesome. He loved his food: pancakes, biscuits/gravy, eggs, and bacon. Staff was great. Large portions. Sourdough toast had lots of real butter on it. 💖

If you're on the hunt for one of the best breakfast spots around, Avenue Grill should be at the top of your list. This place consistently serves up hearty, satisfying dishes that hit all the right notes—especially if you're a fan of classic American breakfasts with a twist.
Let’s start with the Potato Platter, which honestly might be one of the most crave-worthy breakfast plates you’ll find anywhere. It’s a generous helping of crispy country-style potatoes mixed with grilled ham, smoky bacon, bell peppers, and onions—all topped off with a layer of melted cheese. It’s everything you want in a breakfast dish: savory, cheesy, filling, and just enough crisp on the potatoes to keep you coming back.
Another standout is the Chicken Fried Chicken—perfectly fried, juicy, and paired with a savory country gravy that brings the whole thing together. It’s comfort food done right, and they clearly know what they’re doing with their gravy here.
Surprisingly, even the Carnitas Quesadilla holds its own. Now, I wouldn’t normally order a quesadilla at a breakfast place like this, but I’ve tried it, and it’s genuinely good—tender carnitas with just the right amount of seasoning and gooey cheese in every bite. If you're in the mood to mix things up, it won’t disappoint.
The Poorman’s Benedict is another favorite—it’s a creative and delicious take on the traditional benedict. A fluffy biscuit and rich gravy serve as the base, stuffed with a sausage patty, a perfectly cooked egg, and a handful of those signature country-style potatoes. It’s messy in the best way possible and absolutely delicious.
They also serve some of the best pancakes I’ve had—thick, fluffy, and golden. The only knock? They serve them with syrup that contains corn syrup rather than real maple syrup. It’s a small letdown in an otherwise great dish, and I really wish they’d offer a pure maple option.
The coffee is solid too—bold, hot, and just what you need to round out a great breakfast. It's nothing fancy or artisanal, but it's good, and it keeps coming, which is all I ask for in a breakfast joint.
Be warned: weekends get busy. It’s a local favorite, and word has definitely gotten out, so expect a bit of a wait. That said, the staff is efficient and the kitchen moves fast, so even when it’s packed, things turn over quickly.
Overall, Avenue Grill delivers on every level when it comes to breakfast—huge portions, tons of flavor, and a menu that offers comfort food classics with enough variety to keep it interesting. Just come hungry and bring your own maple syrup.

If you have ever been to Chucks back in the day or enjoy the mom and pop dinner feel this place gives it to you. Friendly service and amazing food. Busy busy with people just shooting the breeze and catching up with their friends and family. I was amazed at how fast the food came out for as busy as they were on a Friday morning. You have to go and keep going back because I know I will.
