The Avenue, located at Van Ness Ave. & Geary in San Francisco, is a highly regarded assisted living facility praised for its clean, welcoming environment and attentive staff. Visitors and residents appreciate the thoughtful care provided, with staff members being described as polite, caring, and respectful. The facility offers a range of services, including assisted living with medical support, memory care, and retirement living. It features a variety of amenities such as a sunroom with stunning views, a salon and spa, a computer lab, and a clubhouse for recreational activities. The rooms are mostly private and upscale, with some shared options for couples. The Avenue is noted for its engaging activities, including bingo, card games, board games, painting, and memory-focused programs like daily trivia and reminiscence groups. The food receives mixed reviews; while some find it excellent and comparable to a first-class hotel, others, like one resident's grandmother, have complaints. Meals are priced at $10-$12 for guests, and the facility offers a Bistro Café for lighter fare. Despite its higher cost compared to other facilities in San Francisco, many believe The Avenue offers good value, emphasizing that you get what you pay for. The location is considered prime, with easy access to public transportation and proximity to CPMC hospital, which is reassuring in emergencies. While one reviewer had a negative experience with phone communication, overall, The Avenue is recommended for those who can afford it, especially for residents who are more independent both cognitively and physically.

Clean, caring, wonderful, nice people! Everyone is very thoughtful and cares about your well- being. They like to have client’s input and listens to them for any concerns. They love families to visit (we park in their enclosed gated underground lot). The parties are so fun, bingo, card games, board games, and painting with a real paint brush and paint. Some of the residents are talented and their art is put up in the hallways. I always see outside social workers checking-in with their patients so thats a good thing. I like the food here (excellent view too!) and it is a step above hospital food and not overly salted and I don’t detect msg. Everything tastes freshly made, especially the cookies! We made a very good choice picking “the avenue”which is on Van Ness Ave. & Geary. It’d across the street from CPMC hospital so no worries in emergencies. Keep up the great work!
