"The menu is impressive, offering a wide variety of choices. Some of our favorite appetizers include the mozzarella sticks and mushrooms, and their garden salads are always fresh and crisp. For main dishes, we love the homemade lasagna, tortellini with meat sauce, and baked cod with Italian vegetables. If you're in the mood for a cold sandwich, you can't go wrong with Avanti's Famous Gondola, featuring lean ham, salami, American cheese, and fresh salad. For a hot sandwich, the roasted ham and cheese or my personal favorite, the roasted turkey with Swiss cheese, never disappoints. My go-to appetizer is their fried mushrooms served with ranch dressing—so delicious! With numerous menu options, Avanti's is one of our favorite Italian restaurants for family meals. Their bread is always fresh and tasty, and having dined here for over 30 years, I've never been let down by the food or service. For our Christmas party on December 15, 2018, we opted for their buffet, which was absolutely fantastic! I think we've found a perfect venue for future family Christmas gatherings. Everything was just right, and our little elf of a waitress did an outstanding job. The buffet included spaghetti with meat or Alfredo sauce (the best I've ever had), salad, Italian vegetables, gondola sandwiches, and their famous bread served at the table. We all had a wonderful time, and with our large family, it was great not to have to worry about cooking!"

I hadn't been to Avanti in nearly ten years, so I was thrilled to find that it was still here and just as good as I remembered! The staff was extremely friendly and attentive, ensuring that all health precautions were in place. The food was delicious and generously portioned for the price, and I couldn’t resist buying two types of bread to take home because they were just irresistible.
