   Always love this place. Casual or dressed up you feel comfortable. Low noise level makes conversation easy. Food is fantastic!

   Great food, drinks and service as always! The lamb shank special was fantastic. Nice touch making the side door the entrance with a build out with another door to shield the indoors from the elements. The front door is so close to the tables that you’d get a rush of cold air every time it was opened.

   What a wonderful surprise! First time customer and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Every aspect of the place was perfection. Our server was very attentive, and provided great service. There was a 2 hour time limit for our table (it was New Years Eve) but we never felt rushed. Started out with several appetizers...including fried calamari (not greasy and very crispy), crab cakes (the best I have ever eaten with lots of crab), and the mushrooms soup that came highly recommended and was to die for! Our entree's included a wonderful, brothy prawn and angel hair pasta dish, and bouillabaisse, where both had a touch of spiciness, but not overpowering. The ambiance was very warm and inviting and sound level was low and very easy for us to converse. We will definitely become regular customers, even though it is a 20 minute drive from our house!

   Good food but a cold environment - seems more like a pub setting than a nice restaurant Wait staff was okay - again, fine for a pub but when you are paying $36 for an entree you expect some warmth. She was pushy and cold I will likely not go back - better service and ambience at 503 or Chanterelle for a comparable cost & quality

   Avanti is my go to happy high end restaurant. The servers and owners are wonderful people, the food is always amazing, and they actually likely could charge more than they do for the quality. They have a diverse menu in the classic American style with strong French and Italian influences on many dishes and the sides with various entrees are always beyond surprising in their flavor. Mark’s crab cakes are probably the best you will ever have in your life and if you are there when they have mushroom soup available it is an absolute must.
