The service was amazing.
We made a reservation for 6 people on a Wednesday for lunch. When we arrived our table was ready and we didn’t have to wait.
The atmosphere was ok; I wish it was more quiet but the location plays a big part.
The decor is very warming and welcoming. It gives the idea of being on a family dining room with open floors to the living area.
Once we were seated, a server came right away to offer us water. Then, when the rest of the party arrived they let us settled in.
The servers were very nice and took their time taking our orders without rushing us.
All our food came at the same time and they had it perfect. I ordered the Morel Rigatoni and I was amazed by how delicious it was. They surprised us with some sides on the house and later with 3 desserts on the house too.
They went above and beyond.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Food was delicious. However I was disappointed that they never acknowledged that I made a reservation for my friend’s birthday when I checked in, even though I specifically wrote that it’s a birthday dinner in my reservation. The dessert did not come with a candle or birthday message. I just expected better from such a pricy restaurant

L’Avenue is a wonderful, perfectly elegant restaurant on the 9th floor in Saks. It was such a nice experience. Definitely the nicest of all the store restaurants in the city.
The bread they serve is warm with perfect room temperature butter.
The salmon was cooked medium rare wth a delicious miso ginger sauce with sesame seeds. I loved it.
Vegetables were extra and while the spinach was good it could use a little garlic and butter.
Osetra caviar
Lobster and fries
Burgers
Filet mignon
And a few other options .
Great restaurant in a gorgeous setting across from Rockefeller Center. You enter the restaurant through a long hallway decorated with beautifully lit Christmas trees. It was enchanting.
Wonderful experience.
There is a balcony in the warm months.
Update
Liked it so much we went back. The filet was delicious but I didn’t care at all for the sea bass. It wasn’t awful it’s just that the salmon is so much better there is no reason to order the bass. (Truth be told the bass, the fish itself, tasted like a wafer in church…. no flavor and no substance). I was very disappointed actually because the waiter recommended it and I shouldn’t have listened to him.
Then, he never came back to see how we were.
Still a wonderful restaurant and wonderful experience.
Highly recommend for a nice occasion but definitely expensive.

I’ve been here three times and I really enjoy the restaurant and its ambience. The location is big, with plenty of beautiful spots for taking pictures. My most recent visit was in early January, where I tried their C’more dessert for the first time. The presentation was great, and the dessert itself was out of this world, though the portion size was a bit small. We also had a wonderful view of Rockefeller Plaza and the Christmas tree, which was a nice touch. If you’re looking for a great view of the tree and Rockefeller, this is a must-visit during the holidays.
As I mentioned, the atmosphere is superb, but the food is decent, though not particularly extraordinary. For appetizers, we shared avocado with tuna. For the main course, I had the spicy Thai beef, and my friend opted for the morel rigatoni. The fries are definitely a highlight—crispy, not oily, and delicious. Overall, while the food is good, it’s the atmosphere and the view that truly stand out. If you’re after a unique holiday experience with a view, this spot is worth visiting.

Smack dab in all the hustle and bustle of Manhattan but overlooked!
Cozy loft restaurant with a cozy lodge themed bar downstairs with a great patio for views
Nice a quiet and well made western classics with some international flare

The view of the tree was why we came but the food/service was why we stayed!! Very relaxed but high end feeling restaurant, coupled with atmosphere to boot!

I had an unforgettable experience at L’Avenue. The food was not only visually stunning but absolutely delicious—each dish felt like a carefully crafted work of art. What truly elevated the evening, though, was the exceptional service. In a setting where the ambiance and overall dining experience are already a solid 10/10, Mirko went above and beyond to make our visit truly special.
The Miso Salmon and Tom Yum Chilean Seabass were bursting with flavor—every bite was a standout. I don’t usually have a sweet tooth, but dessert completely won me over. La Pavlova was my personal favorite for its taste, while the Saks S’mores offered a playful and memorable tableside presentation.
L’Avenue is more than just a meal—it’s a full sensory experience, and thanks to Mirko and the entire team, it’s one I can’t wait to relive.

Service was impeccable, and the fries are to die for, not oily and extremely crunchy. My wife had the sea bass and side of salad, which were delicious. My veal chop was a bit chewy, but the mushroom sauce was tasty. I expected better quality meat for the price tag, I will try another main next time.

Eeesshh. I mean realistically you know you are not coming here for the food, but woah was it flavourless. The last time I had their famous tuna tar tar was in Paris years ago and I enjoyed it. This time around was literally flavourless as well as the artichoke salad. I came here because my bougie brother was in town and likes to feel lavish and wanted to go shopping at sacks…but for me there is nothing less lavish than flavourless food. I will say the service was great and the ambiance does feel nice clean and elevated in there.
What was ordered:
Tuna tar tar: 4/10
Giving a 4 because at least the fish was fresh. Sauce was not enough and also lacking in flavour. Same with the avocado spread – zero flavour. Scary stuff, no spice, no zest, no salt.
Artichoke salad: 2/10
Unfortunately, we ordered two of these because we had just come for a quick little bite, even less flavour than the tartar. At least they were generous with the Parmesan cheese. Skip.
Fries: 10/10
Thank the Lord that these fries were at least crispy and skinny, and came with a generous amount of mayo and ketchup.
Overall, if you were looking to walk around and go shopping and need a quick bite, that’s fine but if you’re looking to save up your paycheque and go for a nice meal or really, just enjoy the food that you’re eating I wouldn’t recommend this place to go. The ambiance is nice and elevated and the service is indeed great. Now I’m just left wondering if I really enjoyed the tuna tartare in Paris or if I was just jaded by all the hype?

Went here for to celebrate two friends birthdays. We had an awesome time. The atmosphere was luxury and demure. And the service was top tier. The ginger shot was incredible. Food was just okay. I will definitely visit again.
