    Finally got the chance to dine in after just getting take out a bunch of times. The service is always good, no difference today. The place is set up really well. Very comfortable, clean, relaxing environment. With tv's all around and reggae music playing. A lot was put into the set up because you don't typically see this in Carribean restaurants. The food is always delicious. They recently took over the place next door and expanded their operations to accommodate large groups etc. Plus I love the fact that they offer take out up until like 4 a.m. everyday.

    A surprise experience. I recently found The Avenue, a newly expanded and renovated Caribbean cuisine restaurant. The experience and hospitality was beyond expected in every way. From the planning, following up to the day of service, Brandon and his team made us all feel important from the time we arrived down to the last person that left. By the time we got to appetizers everyone was sold and the rest of the night was just a bonus. Thank you for making my wife's 40th and her father's 90th an experience to remember. We look forward to sharing this kind of experience with our circle of friends.

    I got the regular chicken wings with extra pepper sauce here and the special chicken fried rice for take out and let me tell you these wings are delicious!!! Really well seasonsed and crispy tender wings and the pepper sauce just lights it up!! Excellent chicken fried rice haven't had it in soo long and it was well worth the wait. Perfectly cooked and seasoned and just right! Great to go spot in Scarborough a must try for sure and they have a variety of selections of wings and a big menu to suit everyone!!!

    Great restaurant. Fast service and tasty Caribbean food. Can't go wrong with pepper shrimp, chili chicken, or fried rice. Come in the evening and enjoy the nice music. It can get busy in the evening, so make sure to call ahead for a seat.

    Great atmosphere. Great food. Great service!! We had the trio platter with pepper shrimp, pepper wings and pepper fish. Everything on the platter was excellent. We also tried the avenue fried rice, chow mein and beef with broccoli. Let's just say all four of us were very satisfied. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back!

  • 1/5 Nezaam J. 3 years ago on Google
    I've been ordering food from the Avenue Restaurant every Wednesday for numerous years. I always order the same items. My mother is allergic to shrimp, and I always ask to have the shimp on the side instead of in the noodles. The owner "Brandon Jay" told me there is an extra charge to have the shrimp on the side. I've never had to pay an extra change for having something on the side. All in all, I am paying the full price for the dish. This is horrible, knowing that I am a regular customer who orders from the Avenue 1-2 times weekly. Well, they have lost the business from my family and friends.

    I give the service a 5, atmosphere a 4.5 and food a 4. The spicy shrimp was the star and veggie spring roll really good too. The chilli chicken was good but not great. Overall satisfied

    I am recommending this restaurant to the public. I was on board the Enterprise 2000 J & B masters annual boat ride Aug 19th 2023, Avenues was hired to do the catering. The food was exceptional and in abundance but what I was extremely happy with was the service, five star service from the staff.Thanks to Savi, Shelly and Rudy who ensured all passengers were satisfied!!!! I love how they work as a professional team and greeted us with a smile. These servers made a difference and should be recognized.

    Great atmosphere, service was attentive and great. The pepper shrimp is definitely a must order item. There could have been more fried rice with the fried chicken and the beef with vegetables was very plain.

    Ordered the chilli chicken combo on uber eats, when my order had arrived it had ZERO sauce on the chilli chicken it was literally soggy,unsalted,breaded chicken.how do you miss the sauce on chilli chicken i dont understand how that slipped by the cook.i pushed it to the side thinking i can enjoy the rice only to find there is ZERO SALT in that too. Took one bite and threw it out.

    Great apps and food, especially when you're feeling snacky (wings, pepper shrimp and fish AND poutine is a must try)! Food is served hot and delicious. Staff are attentive and genuinely friendly. Mosdef recommended!

    I'm truly amazed with Avenue's food, there is no West Indian Chinese food that can compare in Scarborough. The portion, the toppings/ingredients, their hot sauce, the presentation and quality of food is superb! They are absolutely not stingy and don't hold back when it comes to your food compared to other restaurants. Their restaurant is clean and well taken care of, the staff are nice and friendly. I highly recommend Avenue!

    A very relaxing and chill restaurant to come out too for a nice social setting. The food is amazing! So much flavour and the hot sauce is very flavourful. Pepper shrimp is a must! I love the chicken wings here! It’s my favourite. Everything I’ve ordered from her taste so good. I highly recommend this restaurant

    Best chilli chicken ever. Has Caribbean flair to it (spicy!) and the portions are massive. You can tell it's made with passion

    Ordered a vegetarian meal as the food is generally good. However I do have a problem when there is chicken on my vegetarian meal. Please train who packed this not to cross contaminate.

    Anytime visiting The Avenue is great he food is great the atmosphere/ambience is quite nice and relaxing. Also had some catering done for our work. Brandon and his staff ensured that everything was done in time and of course the quality of food kept high . I suggest everyone looking for a great place to eat or just have some drinks and appetizers that this is thebplace to be.

  • 5/5 Ziba R. 1 year ago on Google
    The pepper fish was delicious. The macaroni pie was good but it had a sweet taste and generally speaking I don't like sweet flavours. Either way I'd go back for the fish By cay.

  • 5/5 Demi L. 4 months ago on Google
    We had our work Christmas party and we all enjoyed everything. From drinks, to food, place and the amazing DJ the owner arranged for us. For sure, we will go to this wonderful place again. The owner and his crew are amazing. Parking is not a problem too.

    Carnival Spice had our 10th Year Anniversary Dinner Event, “Dine & Lime” at the Avenue earlier this Spring - and it was such a beautiful experience. The venue is clean, cozy and intimate and the delicious Caribbean food was a hit! Highly recommend it if you are considering spaces to host an event.

  • 5/5 Jen K. 2 years ago on Google
    First time trying this restaurant and so very impressed! Delicious food, huge portions and the pepper sauce was out of this world... I will definitely be back!

  • 5/5 Natasha K. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Trejan S. 7 months ago on Google
    Hidden spot in Scarborough for Hakka. Love the fried rice, sweet & sour pork, and bbq chicken. Best part I would say is the environment inside. I really like how it dim and calm.

  • 5/5 Ron M. 2 years ago on Google
    Was going next door for a roti but craved Chinese and stopped in. Judy explained the menu. Wonderful food and great service. The craving was satisfied. Very impressed.

  • 2/5 A S. 11 months ago on Google
    Food quality and portion are not as good lately though prices continue to climb. Customer service is mediocre. Used to be a go to spot, there are better quality/priced meals out there. Last order, kitchen made mistake and sent wrong dish.

  • 5/5 Andrew Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Felt for some fried rice at 1am and the Avenue came through. Ordered mixed fried rice with quarter chicken and spring rolls, large portion good for 2, includes hot scotch bonnet pepper sauce. If you want some late night eats this will satisfy.

  • 5/5 Jaya D. 2 years ago on Google
    The appetizer platter! We usually get the pepper shrimp, calamari & wings. Wantons are also a favourite. & the fried rice .. & the, you know what just try anything you won’t be disappointed. Customer service excellent⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • 2/5 Pria 10 months ago on Google
    First time to this place tonight. The food was all right. I ordered chilli chicken and fired rice and the pepper shrimp, which was the best of the dishes. The child checked was dry and not hot, but they do have some great pepper sauce!

  • 5/5 Shyann J. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing food! Large portions- enough to feed 2-3 people. I've only ordered their peppered shrimp and chow mein so far and food is absolutely delicious. Pepper sauce is on point as well. Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • 1/5 Ovi P. 2 years ago on Google
    Got the Chilli Chicken on Vegetable fried rice and honestly the chicken had 90%fat and 10%meat, mostly chewy. Rice looks and tastes super dry and no flavor. Took a couple of bites and couldn't eat the rest.. what a waste of 15$.

  • 5/5 Pranavan E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food, portion sizes, service, and prices. Got the chilli chicken combo, added a chicken leg and 2 spring rolls - total came to $22.90 before tip. Chicken was ok, veggie fried rice was bomb!!! Coming back for sure.

  • 5/5 Hennessey B. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is the bomb! Food always fresh and made to order. And they open till 4am. Always great after a night of drinking

The crew helped in a splendid manner, the meals were tasty and my guests were very delighted. We shall no dout return for more events. Thank you very much.

  • 1/5 Irenes K. 3 years ago on Google
    Wednesday December 09 @11:35pm So much for half price chilly chicken on Wednesdays. I called at 11:10 pm to order chilly chicken and when I went to pick up my order they tell me its full price after 11. If their day ends an hr early they need to clarify that on thier website or on thier instagram account. This was a waste of my time and gas. Hope no one else has to go through this dissapointment.

  • 4/5 Winfield R. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Bruce A. 3 years ago on Google
    Great. Tasty, fast, economic , good portion size, still just take out but sure beats a big mac.. had mild chilly chicken with 1/2&1/2 veg fried rice and chow mein...great lunch.

  • 5/5 Alphy A. 3 years ago on Google
    I ordered via face drive from here. It’s one of the late night restaurants. I tried chilli chicken with fried rice and hot and sour chicken soup. It was totally worth the price. Great quantity. Everything was well packed.

  • 4/5 Tasneem A. 3 years ago on Google
    I got the fish with fried rice. I really like this place because they give a great portion for a reasonable cost. I am not a heavy eater and I was able to take my one portion and divide it into one dinner and two small lunches!

    Haven’t gone to Avenue in over a year. As soon I enter this establishment, I was greeted “long time meh nah see yuh” by the owner. She is always friendly and chatty. Food always good as usual. Too bad I couldn’t enjoy a stag while waiting.

  • 5/5 D E. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent food and service. I called ahead and the food was ready on time. Both chicken dishes were tasty, rice and noodles were on point, spring rolls were delightful. Adding this place to the roster!

  • 5/5 Donna L. 3 years ago on Google
    I constantly receive great service when I visit The Avenue

  • 5/5 DK L. 3 years ago on Google
    Full disclosure, I have done some promo work for this restaurant before. But the reason I did so is because I love it so much! So this opinion is completely my own: this place is great for Caribbean Chinese food. Super friendly staff, and a pretty kickin' patio make for a wonderful place to chow down some chicken in the ruff fried rice or even some chili chicken poutine! And ya gotta try their lo mein noodles as well as the pepper shrimp. Trust me, you'll want more. Plenty of parking too, and they open SUPER late!

  • 5/5 Mars D. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Basilhea W. 3 years ago on Google
    Good food, the reviews seemed mixed and I was hesitant at first but it’s good Chinese food. I got the sweet and sour chicken

  • 2/5 Aliphossin D. 2 years ago on Google
    Got the chili chicken and sweet and sour chicken. The chicken was soggy, not seasoned, and the portion of rice/noodles was too big. Vegetables were just thrown in there. Most likely will not be getting again.
