Recently I tried the vegan burger and was pleasantly surprised with the flavor. It is a vegetable patty rather than a meat-imitation patty, which I prefer anyway. I would order this item again! I upgraded my fries to curly fries, and I kinda felt like the portion of fries was smaller than I am used to, but they were decent. Burger fixings (lettuce, pickles, condiments, etc.) are self serve. Also a major highlight of eating here is getting to see and interact with their cats! :)

It's amazing! While we were going through, we decided to stop for lunch and stopped in at the Avenue Cafe. What a great experience! The food was great and the staff made us feel welcomed. When we arrived, we walked in the front door and found it packed. So packed, in fact, that we had to eat at their outside tables. We chose the fully outside table (versus under the cover) and found that it was a mistake...when it started raining on us. Trisha didn't even mind that we resat ourselves in the covered area. We will definitely stop there again even when we don't drive the Ave itself...the food and service was that good!

I ordered the lost coast burger and with tax it was $20. It came with a small portion of broccoli coleslaw that I really liked- and thankfully my two companions did not so I got a triple portion. The burger was fine. Not the greasy smash burger experience I was craving, but it tasted fresh. Served on a ciabatta roll... from Costco? Unconfirmed, but that's what it tasted like. I would have preferred brioche or something more fluffy. I ate every crumb because post hike hunger. I wouldn't come again though. The service was good and everyone was nice- just overpriced for the product, IMO. The outdoor seating was nice and it looks like sometimes there is live music. The bathrooms were gross. Smelled horrible and dirty. There is a campground or some sort of rv park right behind that may also be sharing the restrooms.

Our service was 5 star which helped since we were exhausted. I have a super strong recommendation for the Cali 101 sandwich. It might be one of the sandwiches I've ever had. The fried parmesan on the tops of the bread sealed the deal. My wife asked for a custom burger. Mind you, the kitchen was closing but chef pulled off a beautiful dish. I don't normally photo food but wish I did. My wife goes bun-less and they served the dish on a bed of spinach (which she requested and they had to dig for it). To do all that as the kitchen is closing says something. They could have just thrown it on top. I am completely stealing that one. I love amber ale and they make a good one. I hope we can squeeze one last visit in before we leave.

September 10, 2025 - Fortuna, CA…read more Service was fast and friendly. We were greeted almost immediately, even though there was a line of people waiting for to-go orders. We seated ourselves and were quickly given chips, salsa, water, and menus. My husband ordered a Negro Modelo, and our server brought it right away while taking our meal order. I went with the Quesadilla con Carne a Elegir ($10.99) and chose chicken. It was simply chicken and cheese--no seasoning, sauce, guacamole, salsa, or sour cream--just the basics. The chicken was tender, but the quesadilla felt a little plain, and for the price, I thought it could have included a few extras. My husband, on the other hand, ordered the Chili Verde burrito. I found it too spicy for my taste, but he really enjoyed it. The seating was casual, and the restaurant was clean and pleasantly decorated. Overall, we had a nice meal with generous portions--enough leftovers for lunch the next day.
