About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for creative cocktails
At Avenue Club, we aim to honor the past as much as we strive to reinvent it
The first supper club in the US was established in the 1920s in Beverly Hills by Milwaukee native Lawrence Frank. In their heyday in the ‘50s and ‘60s, supper clubs were social hubs; comfortable places to gather and enjoy great food, drinks and company. Traditionally supper clubs were considered a destination where patrons would spend the entire night, from cocktail hour to after-dinner ice cream drinks. We salute that supper club spirit by serving up creative variations of classic food and drinks in an updated mid-century modern setting.

    We celebrated my daughter's 19th birthday as a brunch there and the food was outstanding. I had a gooey Eggs Benedict and others had variations of eggs and waffles. Bloody Mary's were great. My only complaint would be how skittish our waitress was. She stood far behind us during any interaction and made infrequent trips to our table. I understand COVID-19 concerns are around us but she acted as if we all just tested positive. We were not comfortable. This was very off putting. Perhaps she belongs in the kitchen or in some other vocation. We will return but probably request another table server.

    Pretty quiet with limited seating and social distancing. All tables were seated. Had to remind server about soup and salad when entree was brought out. Ordered salmon with Pasta Primavera, but didn't get the salmon with the pasta. Had to ask server for this also.

    My sister and I came to dinner because it was the anniversary of our mother’s passing and this was her favorite restaurant so we were there to celebrate her. Service was amazing and the food was great.

    Food and drinks are amazing. If you order food during happy hour the old fashions are only $1.99 and they are perfect (also enjoyed the tiki drinks as well). Wonderful fish fry (on fridays and Sunday brunch) and extremely friendly service. Always are great meal and is constantly viewed as one of our go-to restaurants.

    Very friendly service, food was outstanding, but as I had indicated it was a Birthday I expected a bit more than a casual “happy birthday hope your day is going well”. The offer of a drink or a dessert would have been appreciated. The person celebrating chose The Avenue over any other restaurant in Madison, a lifelong resident celebrating 84 years! I will return to The Avenue, but not for a special occasion. Some of the personal service that was present before this became another of the Food Fight acquisitions has now been lost in my estimation.
