We dine here almost weekly. They are consistently great and hence we go back. We’ve been going for a couple years now and every meal was just as expected. They have specials in the weekends and some seasonal menu changes. Drinks are made correctly. Staff are hard workers and stay. I notice when staff stay with an employer in the restaurant business-it says a lot for the chef/owner. I always recommend Avanti to people I know who want a great meal without an upcharge for ambience. You aren’t paying for a view or fine linens here-you are here for the food and drinks. The service is top notch.
