Nice bar with beautiful outdoor patio. Visited for a poetry Slam even which was awesome! Device at the indoor bar was very slow. It was cold outside and the heaters where not on. Very limited parking. You'll most likely have to park about 2 or 3 blocks away at the neighborhood behind. Just double check it is not a tow zone. Dog friendly.
Had our wedding and reception here on a Saturday and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Mariana is an absolute all-star, and her venue is unbeatable for 100-125 guests. All 3 bars were stocked and staffed by fantastic bartenders. Her DJ was outstanding and easy to work with - I sent him a list of songs for each phase, he picked up the vibe and rolled with it. The lighting, decor, flowers, succulents... literally everything Mariana put together was amazing and I'm eternally grateful to her for putting it all together and coordinating all the fine details. 11/10
Nice low key spot. Small so can sometimes get quite full but very fun. They had a love jazz duo when I went. Limited parking
Crazy parking but the vibe on a Monday outdoor patio seating. I got to meet and converse with the live jazz band as well as Horace Grigsbylegend They were all absolutely amazing. Looking forward to dropping thru again in the near future. Early arrival suggested for days later on in the week due to parking/ seating
I could not say enough good things. Mariana and her team are exceptional! She was so calm which kept me calm the day of the wedding. We went the with more expensive all inclusive package and it was worth every penny. Our friends and family loved the venue and the tacos were amazing. We can’t wait to go back to celebrate our many anniversaries!
My husband and I could not have dreamt up a more magical day! Mariana and her team did an amazing job executing our vision. Our friends and family are still raving about what an amazing wedding it was! I would 100% recommend AvantGarden for your big day.
This place was nice. I was there for a private event in their garden area so I didn't get to experience the bar or the inside of the place but the outside atmosphere was good. It was like a little hidden gem. This would be really nice for any outdoor events like a wedding reception or a private event. The parking lot is super small and you have to find parking and walk over.
Cute venue with a lot of different events going on jazz, hookah, poetry nights, etc. - I went for a poetry slam and was not disappointed! Such great performances from the poets.
Our guests had the best time at our private party on Monday. Many thanks to Mariana and Minerva the authentic wood fire pizza along with the bubbly lite bites and apps were great. We will return soon!
We absolutely recommend AvantGarden for couples who are looking to have an authentic, colorful, and relaxed wedding! The music, ambience, and charm had our guests raving about the fun and beauty of our special day. I was drawn to this venue because I spent many years living in the heart of New Orleans, embracing the richness of courtyard gardens and classic architecture. That made AvantGarden such an easy pic. I also loved that we could provide our guests from all over the United States a chance to experience a touch of the classic and authentic feel of this diverse and cultured city. I must also add that our day was very cold and rainy. This did not disrupt our experience in the least. Mariana and her team did an exceptional job reassuring me throughout the day leading up to our ceremony that all would be marvelous despite the terrible weather. The patio where the ceremony and dinner took place was covered and heated well. Lastly, the food truck was awesome! Efficient and incredibly tasty.
