   Had the best time at avec! The food was phenomenal - we had the short rib hummus, herby falafel, beef tagliatelle, and whole roasted branzino. NO skips. Highly recommend!

   The food was absolutely amazing. Service ( Devon) was on point- very courteous and attentive. He gave excellent recommendations. Will most definitely return with friends.

   Food and service were excellent, truly outstanding. But this may be the most deafeningly loud restaurant I’ve ever patronized. We loved all of the food, especially the falafel, the calamari and the brandade. The wine list was fairly priced, and there were plenty of options. Our server was absolutely top-notch, as professional and helpful as anyone could ask. We just couldn’t hear each other!

   Searching for a comfortable atmosphere for family, social or business dining? Avec should be at the top of your list. The staff are very attentive to detail. The food was delightful and busting with mouth watering flavors. Food portions are sizable amounts which allow for sharing. Give it try, you will be glad you did.

   We recently dined at Avec for Mother’s Day, and once again, it was a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by our server, Ian, whose professionalism and attentiveness set the tone for the evening. Malorie also provided outstanding support throughout our meal, making us feel well cared for. Their combined efforts helped us explore new dishes that exceeded our expectations—everything was absolutely delightful. Ian and Malorie’s friendly and knowledgeable service made the evening not just a dinner but a memorable celebration. Thank you, Avec, for consistently delivering excellence. We look forward to our next visit!

   Wasn’t a fan of Mothers Day brunch compared to menu ordering. Many items on the menu were missing and it was hard to find a server for beverages.
