We have been to Avenue Bistro many times and tonight was another great experience. James was our server, very attentive and helpful. We had the chicken Milanese and Salmon special which had risotto and shrimp scampi. Probably the best salmon I have had anywhere. Drinks were delicious loved my snow cosmo and dessert was pistachio tartufo. Highly recommend and definitely will be back.
Great little spot for Sunday Brunch. Mimosas with some NJ style breakfast with a twist. The atmosphere was cool, the food was great, the service was on point and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Will be back for the dinner menu and other specialty drinks on the menu. Very casual and relaxed atmosphere that we enjoyed.
Good vibe and dog friendly with a dog menu.

To start out positive the menu offered is a varied selection of food for everyone. I was disappointed in the portions of food, we ordered the calamari to share was half of what most restaurants give you I ordered mussels and clams in a pot which I thought would be plentiful to share but there was only six clams and six muscles for $20 although the red sauce was good The burata dish was a nice dish and tasty, the potatoes chips were also good
If I go back I will order some of the other dishes I saw coming out of the kitchen that looked a lot better and plentiful. The waitresses were on point although the the busser staff tried to take away our dishes three times while we were still eating and offered no ice for our water glasses on a summer day. I hope management will address these issues. It was not busy at the time we went on a Sunday afternoon.

We were so lucky to host a private event/engagement party at Avenue Bistro with all of our family and friends. Trevor was so helpful in organizing the event and our bartender Emily was so wonderful. All of our guests had a fantastic time. The whole team there helped make the day so special.

Horrible service and the new management is even worse! At least The flat bread pizza was so good but now they changed that and it’s awful.

Excellent food, burger was cooked to perfection. The mudslide fries are the best thing to eat any day of the week.

I arrived for happy hour and tried the happy hour menu but the sliders were not good at all. The buns were over toasted, which I didn’t ask for, the buffalo slider was hard over cooked kid style chicken nuggets. The burger was just Ok. Maybe it’s an off night for them.

I went with my wife and 3 year old daughter for my birthday brunch about a week and a half ago. Our server was Charlie who attentively took our order and had such a great attitude. He made sure we had all we needed and kept my mimosas flowing. The food was excellent and we enjoyed our time there. It's people like Charlie who make a simple brunch that much better. We will definately be back soon!

Our wait was great. The seared tuna done perfectly, and we really enjoyed the lightly fried calamari with aioli instead of marinara. Only problem - the tables are sticky, like they need refinishing. Overall a great experience. Friendly place.
We took a little drive to try out Avenue Bistro—and we’re so glad we did! My fiancé and I were looking for a place to enjoy a date with our dog, and this charming hidden gem was the perfect pick. The outdoor seating is beautiful and incredibly pet-friendly.
From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. They even brought our pup a cold bowl of water and had a special dog menu, which made the whole experience feel extra special. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Avenue Bistro is a cornerstone of the new focus on Verona restaurants. It's a really large space offering open window seating in the front bar seating, bar table seating, outdoor seating with TVs and even further outdoor seating under a canopy. Parking isn't a problem as there is a large lot behind the place.
The food is fantastic...almost anything you can order is great. I'm a vegetarian but I have been there four times in the past two months and have not been disappointed in the food options.
My cousins got the pork chop and it was enormous and they said it was fantastic.
I had the Drunken mudslide fries this last time.. basically, pasta vodka fries.
The atmosphere in the front area still needs some work...theming perhaps, some background music maybe. It was very loud, but mostly because of the acoustics.
The place can accommodate any size party...so I do recommend it for those happy hour times...
