    Roasted Chicken with fries and steamed vegetables.
    Sheena M.

    Avenida Diner serves good food, has fast service, and has a friendly staff--an excellent, clean environment for sitting and enjoying your meal.

    Great food great atmosphere and great prices it's always a wonderful experience when we go there.

    Thanksgiving Turkey Lunch special
    Sam M.

    I ordered the Thanksgiving lunch special and it tasted okay. However, the stuffing came out burnt so I had to eat parts of it. The turkey was also incredibly dry in some areas so I couldn't eat all of it. Was it worth $13? Absolutely not, but at least it wasn't terrible. So I would have given them a 3 but I have to take one off because of the service. It is a very basic thing to ask the customer, how was the food, and if they would like a refill. That alone could have made all the difference for a returning customer. I would have also tipped more. But without that hospitality, there's no heart to come back to.

    Western Omelette Vegetarian Omelette

    My friend and I came here for a quick Sunday breakfast. The food and service was AMAZING. Thank you Alex! I got the vegetarian egg white omelette and I added jalapeños & cheddar cheese (that came with home fries and toast) w/ a side of turkey bacon. My friend got the western omelette with a stack of pancakes w strawberry. Everything was fresh!! It was DELICIOUS!! I found my new diner spot!

    Wow, this place is underrated! I can't believe the coffee is one of the best, almost the same as most expensive coffee places in the city. However this Diner doesn't squeeze your wallet. We came here with Mommy for lunch. My husband and Mommy came here before but it's new to me. They used to open across the street and now moved to this side of the street, as reported by Hubby. Due to something new I didn't want to order anything extravagant, so I kept it simple, Avenita Omelette! Sounds fancy but it was really a veggie omelette that includes spinach, mushroom, tomato and onion. Mommy ordered the same. It served with potato. I usually substitute potato with lettuce and tomato but forgot to do it this time. I tried the potato and it was pretty good. My omelette? It was awesome! With not much oil and great ingredients and fresh veggies, they got my vote. Hubby ordered two eggs over easy with kosher salami. That's right, they carry kosher salami here. This is definitely a plus. Mommy and I had whole wheat toast with our omelette. I would prefer grain bread but they don't have this. However, the whole wheat was very good, harder texture than most whole wheat. So ok, I liked this place and I wouldn't mind stopping by just to have some good coffee!

    Chicken Caesar Wrap & Sweet Potato Fries
    Jonathan V.

    I came to this diner expecting typical diner food but let me tell you, once they hit me with the BENDY STRAW!!!! PHEWWW that made my day. I ordered the Chicken Caesar wrap and Sweet Potato Fries, they were delish but the bendy straw is what really made my dinner better.

    I visited today with a friend, expecting to enjoy a pleasant breakfast, but unfortunately our…read moreexperience was disappointing for several reasons. I dine here frequently, so I am familiar with the typical portion sizes. The meal I received was noticeably smaller than what is normally served. To the server's credit, she acknowledged the issue and offered to have it corrected without hesitation. The more concerning issue involved my friend, who politely requested plastic utensils. She was told they were only available for takeout orders. Due to a medical condition, she does not use reusable utensils in restaurants. We have never encountered this issue at any other restaurant. As a result, we were unable to comfortably dine in. When I spoke with the manager, I explained that refusing a reasonable accommodation was inappropriate. His response was, "You never told me that," referring to my friend's medical condition. To be clear, customers should not be expected to disclose or justify their private medical information in order to receive a simple accommodation. We ultimately packed up our food and left because no effort was made to resolve the situation. Additionally, I had placed a separate takeout order before all of this occurred, but it was never entered into the system. When the check arrived, I was confused as to why the order was missing. To make matters worse, I was informed that I could not order an item from the children's menu as a takeout meal for my daughter. This policy was surprising, as I have never experienced such a restriction at any other restaurant. Overall, this was a very disappointing visit. While I appreciate that the server was willing to correct my meal, the lack of reasonable accommodation, poor communication, and multiple service issues left us with a negative experience. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and reevaluates both their policies and their approach to customer service.

I had the mistake of walking in here for a family Sunday brunch with 2kids before going to the movies at Cinemart Cinemas. Service: no one greeting guests or walking them to a table with menus. I waited 10 min sitting down before anyone even noticed us in the largest booth available there. The entire time we were there, not one glass of water was provided. I had to flag someone down to get menus and the young man nicely came over and took juice and coffee orders. He was kind enough to apologize for that. I wanted the "special flavored lattes" they had pictured at the table but ofc that was not available there. Food: I ordered my favorite brunch menu - Huevos Ranchero and it was the worst I've ever had! Like who the hell came up with that recipe! There was NO sauce/salsa, half the plate covered in pinto beans (unseasoned) with melted cheese! When I asked what happened with the salsa and sauce that comes with the mean, the waitress says oh she forgot - like wtf that's part of the dish! She came back with a side of store bought salsa usually for a side of chips! So disappointing! The thing is that the place was not even packed or loud. No idea why guests are overlooked. And the simplest food to make - plain toasted bagel with cream cheese.. they couldn't even spread it in the bagel. They have my daughter a block of cheese instead for her to do herself.

The meatloaf was probably been around too long and reheated to death. I wanted mashed potatoes and peas in a separate container and the peas were hard like shotgun pellets. So my experience was that they managed not to kill the mashed potatoes. Do do you need any more warnings?

    The "literal" embodiment of IYKYK, this classic old school neighborhood institution, the type of…read morewhich are becoming increasingly rare to the point of near extinction, is certainly on my shortlist of the best bars in the city, let alone the borough. The gorgeous, ancient building, Fillmores for close to 50 years now but home to a bar for many years prior to that, is perennially packed with a cross section of local regulars representing many eras of the neighborhoods varied history and populations, from old school working class joes in Union Jackets and hardhats to more recent immigrants from every corner of the world befitting it's location smack in the center of the worlds borough. They're all most definitely having a great time, soaking up the fantastic atmosphere and character and being served by seasoned pros with a level of old school care and camaraderie, and focus on loyalty to the regulars that is also sadly rapidly fading away (how many other places in this town still know the meaning of the words "buy back?") Where the place really sets itself apart from all the other local watering holes however charming they might be on their own right however, is the food. Its lives up to the original designation of a tavern as a place that places a priority on the cuisine, and indeed the offerings rise far far above the bar-food norm. This is the type of spot that not only serves one of the great, deeply satisfying under-the radar burgers, non nonsense but deeply meaty uniquely presented on a long hero-type roll, but also one of the best, and cheapest NY Strips in town and a killer prime rib special. Also has some of the most reliably crispy wings, even if the propriety house sauce is just a tad sweet for my tastes, and a rotating list of delicious house made soups (particularly a marvelous lobster bisque) that can be paired with said wings or most other options as part of the wonderful lunch specials. I've heard many other patrons praise the grilled chicken wrap but have never had the chance to give it a try as of yet. I'll have many more chances because I plan on continuing to visit the place often for years to come, and here's to hoping that this place remains a constant in the ever changing borough as it's miraculously been able to all these many many years.

My chicken tenders and mozzarella sticks were solid, but my pub pretzel was amazing, and made to perfection! The staff, to include the bartender and waiters, were all very nice, welcoming, and attentive, and I loved chatting with the other patrons as well. I'd definitely recommend Filmore's to anybody passing through the neighborhood, and I'll assuredly be back in the future!

I heard him making jokes with customers and asking people for feedback. Now to the rest of it: service is weird and slow. When we were seated, we had to wait a little bit until receiving menus. Water wasn't automatically given to us also, so you have to ask. A woman took down our order, but later asked if we got waffles, even though I said pancakes - overall took 25 minutes to get our order of a salad and pancakes. Pancake platter came with two pancakes, two eggs, and a couple berries on the side. There's also an option to add sausage or bacon but no price there, which adds to the confusion. When we pointed it out, they removed the charge from our bill. There were maybe 3 people who stood behind the coffee bar which is kind of around a corner, making it hard to get service if you're not in their field of vision. Kind of strange there isn't a clear welcoming desk or something like that. Also, I think the menu uses AI as photos - there's a picture of a burger with fries and chips, but I don't think they serve chips. There's also a picture of cake with garlic next to it, which could be an artistic choice. We didn't get any drinks, but there was a table next to us who abandoned their full cups of Nutella lattes which was interesting.
