Discovering the experience of dining in a place such as Cannes or Nice was never easier than now with the opening of the French Bistro and Raw Bar, Avenue. The only difference between dining at Avenue and dining along the Côte d'Azur, is that your gaze lands on waves on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

    Food and drinks were excellent! But you better wear a winter coat and gloves because the place was absolutely freezing if you get seated near the front windows. There was a lack of heat in the place as I looked around everyone was wearing their coats. The waiter wasn’t the best never asked if we wanted another drink and after dinner bought us the check without even asking if we wanted dessert or an after dinner drink. Wait staff need improvement.

    10/10 experience across the board. The ambiance was great, we were seated in another room away from the bar (which other reviews have mentioned) and the noise level was not an issue! Everything we ate was phenomenal and the service was perfect, cannot recommend this restaurant more. We came for our anniversary and they made it a very special evening.
