WOW... what an experience... The Avenue is definitely a place worth trying. It was my birthday, so it justified the special occasion dinner. The restaurant was jam-packed and had an exciting buzz - we had a reservation, so we got seated right away (I would strongly recommend having a reservation). The place is very noisy but in an exciting way. Steve, our server was awesome. The service was spot on, and the whole staff was very friendly. The food was very delicious. I had the ribeye with the house salad and the mushrooms as my side while wifie had fish with the house salad and Brussel sprouts. The steak was spot on - cooked correctly and delicious. I really enjoyed the mushrooms and the salad. Wifie absolutely loved the fish. The Brussels sprouts were a great choice for her, and she raved about her salad. The rolls were hot and very tasty. Because it was my birthday they gave me their chocolate cake which I thought was amazing. We parked in the parking structure, and they validated the parking, so we avoided the rain because the elevator let you off at the entrance to the restaurant. It was an awesome birthday...

Overall, we really like this restaurant. It just is not quite as good as the Grandview location, which is why I cannot give this a five-star review.

The Avenue was incredibly accommodating for a vegan diet. I had an off-menu ravioli with cashew cream and tofu, the waitress provided bread with oil instead of butter and vegan dressing for the salad, and finished with raspberry sorbet. Everything was fantastic!

Went in earlier today with family to celebrate my birthday. I have never been to the Avenue even though I work at another Cameron mitchell restaurant. I AM SO GLAD I CAME TO THE AVENUE! First and foremost, our server, ALYSSA along with all her teammates who touched our table, made my birthday experience even more MEMORABLE! Now a disclaimer, being a server, I go to a place to enjoy the food but more importantly, having a great dining experience. And I HAD ONE OF MY BEST DINING EXPERIENCES! Thank YOU ALYSSA, NEIL, the hostesses, manager, the chefs in the kitchen and everyone working tonight for making my Birthday MEMORABLE!

A Cameron Mitchell restaurant that doesn't hit the mark. Four of us dined together, and nobody was impressed. The service was mid-level. The food was mid. The atmosphere is beautiful. The Scallops I got were the best part, but they were nothing special. We also got Ceasar salads that were mid. We won't go again, nor would we recommend it (especially with The Pearl next door)

We drove in from what should have been a 1.5 hour trek and were delayed by a winter storm. My fiance called ahead during the drive to inform them of what would likely be a fairly substantial delay relative to our initial reservation time, and Avenue staff were very understanding and accommodating. We were seated within minutes of our late arrival. Our meals were spectacular, and service was outstanding. The environment was loud but not overbearing. One of the best ribeyes that I have ever enjoyed, and the drinks were (much needed and) fantastic. An excellent experience, and we will certainly return the next time that we are in the Dublin, OH area. Bonus points given that the parking garage connects directly to the restaurant so we didn't have to walk outside in the snow.

Very disappointed. I ordered the twin filet, Oscar style, medium rare. The steak was extremely tough. I ate one piece and could hardly chew it. I cut the other piece and I had to saw through it to cut it. That should not happen with a filet. I told the waiter that it was very tough and I was not going to eat it. He offered to have it remade but my daughter already had her meal so I did not want to wait and then be eating when she was finished so I asked for a cup of soup. The waiter brought it and advised “I am not going to charge you” as he sat the soup down, to which I thanked him. Well imagine my surprise when I got the bill and the $60+ charge for the steak was still on the bill. He did remove the soup though! Very unprofessional and not how a high end steak house should treat a customer. I am not a complainer. I did not say anything about them charging me, and I tipped him well…. but I will never go back again because of this. And we have had many corporate dinners there in the past. Not any more.
