Come for the casual vibe and an excellent fish sandwich.I stopped in on a Sunday late afternoon and sat at the bar. The bartender was friendly and accommodating. When I requested a bourbon cocktail, he whipped up a delicious (and super cute) off-menu drink that included lemon and elderflower syrup.The Crispy Catfish Sandwich was excellent. The fish was light and flaky with a nice crispy crust, served on a soft, buttered bun with a good sauce to tie it all together. Fries pretty standard.

We had great service from the waitress team Aleysha and Sugoi who were both amazing...and then towards the end of the night we met Dave. Talked to Dave the "owner" who was super rude and disrespectful. Asked us if we were having a good time and how the restaurant could improve ...but then insulted us when we made recommendations. There were multiple items on the menu that were not being served. The corn was topped with mayonnaise. The chicken was not cooked properly. The bathrooms were disgusting. The 'owner' as he told us he was.. " Dave" after he didnt like our feedback, ... told us to just leave and summoned the waiter to get our check. We had just ordered a bottle of wine. Another insult. He also told us the restaurant only made $1Million and was going bankrupt before he showed up and now he has made the restaurant over $3 Million. He told us that leadership doesn't know how to train people so they rotate staff and he is changing the menu because his partner is clueless to what the restaurant needs. His actions were distasteful and offensive. We visit here often because of location and convenience but honestly there are several other places we can visit in Hampden and so we don't plan to return. It's a shame. The restaurant is located in Hampden so parking is a challenge but usually worth it...unless you meet Dave. Ambiance was cool. Music was not too loud and food is not spectacular but what you would expect from a bar. Wings are good. Fries were yummy. Wine...they had a Bourdeaux that was awesome but no more. The Cab was okay. Merlot gave rale energy- do not recommend. Not planning to visit again after Dave.

Spontaneous stop here as I've been meaning to try this spot for some time. Checked in and surprise there was an offer for a glass of their House Wine. My Server double checked and, surprise, offer can't be honored as they don't work with Yelp anymore-c'mon now.Noticed they have Saturday Brunch from 11-4 and ordered the Breakfast Burrito-to go. Checked out inside while waiting-walked down an incline to a dining area with a Bar area on the left and tables on right. Dimly lit. It was a day to sit outside and they did have some lounge seating with umbrellas as well high top tables which I liked.Brisket Breakfast Burrito came out with a side of home fries. Brisket was very good but was missing the smoke in the meat. Overall, ok. Service was good-my Server apologized for the Check-in offer miss (would've been better to honor the offer and make the change on the site). I was also asked if I wanted water or if I needed any help by other Servers while waiting for my order.Saw some interesting Brunch drink specials so might be back for that and to try some of the other items.

My husband and I dined here for the first time and I enjoyed it. The dining area gave a warehouse feel as opposed to a stuffy dining room. It was open with a partition that separated the seated area from the bar. The music was nice, the servers were welcoming and accommodating. The meal was plentiful and tasty. I left the restaurant beyond stuffed! Now for the drinks. If you've read any of my other reviews, you know I love a classic, sweet margarita with a sugar rim. I had to give a thumbs down to my first margarita but our server, Joe, upon my request, was able to have another one made with Don Julio tequila, which was delicious. Thumbs up to the bartender! We will definitely be dining here again.

I haven't been here in a while. This was my first time trying this breakfast brisket burrito. All I can say is that I am sad that whenever this was created here, I didn't know about it on the first day. Omg it was so darn good. The brisket was extremely tender, there were peppers and onions in there and egg. They were very accommodating because I'm a dairy free foodie. So no cheese on mine. The original does come with scrambled egg and cheese on it. And there is a side habanero sauce that comes with it... kinda hot. Additionally, you get a side of potatoes and these potatoes must be sprinkled with heaven because I relished every bite. By far (no cap) this was the best brunch meal I have had in years (that I didn't make). I'm definitely coming back again. Drinks: brunch has an unlimited mimosa deal which does not included margaritas for 30$ each person. Keep in mind if you get the unlimited everyone at your table needs to purchase that deal . But the drinks were pretty good 7/10. And the prices in general were reasonable. FYI Seating was nice and in a summer day you can eat outside on a patio table or the couch.

If you haven't been to this place but want to, I strongly suggest you go during happy hour or on a Monday (all day happy hour!). I went with a friend during happy hour and loved the selection of food and drinks. We each ordered a sangria (available red or white) and split 4 apps. Even with the auto-gratuity of 20%, the meal was still very affordable!We ordered the bang bang shrimp (not part of happy hour), crab dip, smoked wings, and roasted brussel sprouts. The wings and crab dip were okay (I could've sworn it used to come with pretzels) but I loved the brussel sprouts and bang bang shrimp. The food also came out really quick, which was a nice plus.

Avenue Kitchen, this time you did right! Shout to the manager Ali who really made our night. He shared his story with us and I really appreciated his conversation. Ali complimented us a bottle of wine for the table, and for that I give him 5 stars. That was very kind of him. The outside patio was definitely a vibe and I loved the playlist, a nice mix of 90's RNB and Hits from the 2000's. The night was beautiful, it was perfect for hanging out with friends. Our server was great, she worked with me as I couldn't not decide what to eat lol They were out of the fried oysters, so I opted for their burger. It was fire! Cooked to perfection and oh so delicious lol. My husband and friends all enjoyed their meals as well. This wasn't my first time here , but it was definitely the best time I've had here. Looking forward to visiting again soon. Cheers!

Friday night out in the Hampdens My friends and I decided to give the avenue a try as we were around the corner by the rotunda and decided to grab a quick bite. When we checked in, we saw that there was a free wine with our entree however the manager mentioned that was long time ago however he did decide to give us a free bottle of wine which was very nice of him. Thank you AliOutdoors was a bit chilly but a vibe, the seats were comfy and people were outside smoking hookah and enjoying the weather.I ordered the crispy catfish sandwich. It was good the breading was seasoned well and very crispy. However, the sandwich itself lacked a lot of catfish. So the bread to catfish ratio was off. Overall It was fun, good and I'll come again for Happy Hour

We just found this place on a whim. We were trying to find somewhere that stayed opened after 10 in Baltimore. Everybody kitchen close early! So Google led us to this spot. The directions brought us up this dark alley so we were a little skeptical at first, but once we entered it felt like home! They were friendly. We were sat immediately. The waitress had a down south feel to her. The food took a minute coming out but it was worth the wait! That dog on fish was sooo good.. crispy and seasoned! Will definitely have to go back there for a visit
