About

Sophisticated decor, delectable cuisine, and first-rate service have led the way in Avanti winning numerous awards since it first became a valley tradition in 1974. Step inside a sophisticated atmosphere and discover a world of refined black and white decor, curved patterned booths, stunning art, a magnificent lounge area, and candlelit dining. The upscale table settings provide a perfect stage for an evening of gourmet appetizers and entrees and Italian favorites with a breezy Mediterranean influence. From seafood lovers to the vegetarians in the party, Avanti's provides a wide range of flavorful dishes to dig into including homemade pastas like the Gnocchi Alfredo, the always-classic Ossobucco, and a parade of steaks, chops, and other robust selections. There is bound to be something on the wine list to perfectly complement your meal, while one of the decadent desserts and a cappuccino are great ways to end your visit. Avanti also offers several options for in-house, private and group dining, including several private dining and party rooms. Avanti's offers Happy Hour Monday thru Friday from 4pm to 6:30pm - drinks and appetizers are all 1/2 off!

  • What a fantastic meal! I had the pappardelle with braised beef ragu which was very flavorful and the pasta was soooo fresh. The lentil soup (soup of the day) was clearly homemade and very good. I also loved the ambience. Being originally from the east coast, this reminded me of a quality Italian restaurant I would find in Philly or New York. Professional and attentive waiters just added to the quality of the experience. This is definitely a restaurant I would go back to.
