By far the best breakfast/brunch/lunch restaurant I’ve been to. There wasn’t a wait to be seated. I ordered a Carmel Macchiato, I really enjoy coffee and their macchiato is one of the best I’ve had. I recommend that or one of the Italian creme soda. Ordering our food was difficult bc I wanted to try multiple things. I can’t wait to go back and try the chicken and French toast. I decided on the breakfast poutine with the cheesy bacon grits, and my wife had the banana foster and of course it was incredible. Aviary’s is at the top of my list.

When you want to feel fancy, eat fancy, and just be fancy...for breakfast! This is the place!! I think my kids love it more than me. The Funky Monkey! It's not for the faint of heart...but for sure do it once! Pro tip; get a mimosa while waiting for your table!! They use top shelf everything!! Amazing atmosphere; matched with amazing food! 6/5 stars recommended! Of and yes! Gluten free, vegan options, and for all the Ron Swansons!!! The "meat and cheese" omelet! Just order 1-2-3 meat and sit back and wait!! It's amazing!

The wait was long as it was a very busy day, but our waitress was so nice and kept our drinks filled and checked on us frequently. She even helped us switch tables when the sun got too hot. The food was amazing! We tried both savory and sweet crepes. The Brussels sprouts were our favorite.

It was my first time here and was not disappointed at all in fact it was beyond my expectations. My server Anna was amazing. She recommended everything and it was excellent. The two drinks were an almond joy latte and a raspberry mocha latte. For the meal it was the black and bleu crepe with loaded pomme frites. It was possible the best savory crepe I have ever tasted. The only thing I would critique is the pomme frites could’ve been seasoned or coated a little more for me but frankly that’s such a minimal issue. All in all I will definitely come back and next time I’ll bring my family.

Great place for breakfast or brunch! I got the Funkey Monkey crepes with banana, and it did not disappoint. As much as I loved the crepes, the Smoked Salmon Toast stole the show. This appetizer could pass as a meal. I was impressed with the taste and quality of the food. They didn't go cheap on the salmon either. That toast was loaded and delicious! The service was also good. I'll definitely be returning to Aviary. If you go around lunch hours, I would definitely recommend joining the wait list online if you plan on dining in.

Aviary by Lavender Falls Cafe was nothing short of perfection! The food was hands-down the best I’ve ever had—every bite was a burst of flavor, beautifully crafted and unforgettable. Our server, Jasmine, was absolutely outstanding, making the experience even more special with her warm, attentive, and genuine service and truly elevated our dining experience. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive—she described dishes with enthusiasm and offered perfect pairing suggestions, tailoring recommendations to our preferences. Jasmine was attentive without being intrusive, her upbeat energy and sincere care made the evening feel personal and memorable, her professionalism and passion for her role were unmatched! Aviary is a gem, and I can’t wait to return!

Hope to see her next time, enjoy the tip and have a great weekend! - B. (Fall 2024) Our waiter Bria was awesome!
