The food was innovative and sensational. Service was first rate. The entire staff was attentive and responsive. Cocktails were imaginative and well balanced. We tried many items on the menu loved almost all of them. My only complaint is minor, the tables are the small ones that are prevalent at so many trendy spots.

You can't go wrong at Avec. I have eaten here a dozen times and have never had bad service or something I didn't enjoy eating. Ever. It is all top-notch. The wine program is genius. There is something new and exciting to try from all over Europe. You can trust that what is offered has been well thought out and works with the food overall.

I’ve been wanting to try for months and I’m so mad it took me this long, hide + seek was amazing!!! The French loaf was so fluffy and flavorful and truly tasted like French onion soup in loaf form. The pastas were incredible and the brownie sundae was a great ending. Vibes on point but it’s a bit loud
