Reviews for Avanti Restaurant in Phoenix, AZ
The food is so good and the service is amazing! I got the Halibut and the flavor and everything was perfect. The place is also... beautiful, great for a date. However, it's going to cost you a little more than the Olive Garden, but it's totally worth it!???????????????? Read more
Delicious food and outstanding service. We had the Escargot de Bourgogne and Italian Antipasto, then the Scampi and Scallops Fra... Diavolo, and the Cioppino Mediterraneo. No room for dessert but I would like to try their tiramisu next time. The escargot atChristo's is still my hands-down favorite (entire pieces and then some and the garlic butter sauce is way better balanced andtasty), the antipasto was okay but didn't seem to fit the price, variety-wise. The Scampi and Scallops were very tasty but thebright star of the evening was absolutely the Cioppino. I was craving Cioppino for weeks and Avanti's Cioppino definitelydelivered. Yummers!!! Beware the cocktail prices, they're ridiculous. Two Manhattans were over $50 alone with tax and tip. Juststick to the food. Read more
Mother's Day brunch was excellent. The host was amazing, the wait staff was amazing. Very pleased with the food options. Very... authentic Italian dishes. One downside to the entire experience the meal did NOT include drinks, no bottomless mimosas or softdrinks. Read more
Came here for a Birthday celebration! Beautiful private room, wait staff very knowledgeable of the menu, personable,... professional and patient. Food delicious, nice selection of wines as well as mixed drinks! We were approximately 30 ppl, notincluding a photographer, and a magician! They even allowed our cakes from the outside and brought us plates! Read more
Absolutely the best authentic Italian food I have ever had. The staff and the owner are amazing hosts as well! I am adding this... restaurant to my top places to eat. Update: 2/16/21 The food is still just as amazing as it was every other time we have eatenthere. It is freshly made every day and you can certainly taste it. The staff is still awesome and the owner loves to jokearound with the customers. Just so you know, they are only open from 4;30 pm to 10:00pm but definitely worth the trip. Read more
I’ve never had lasagna that was made so masterfully before!!! This is one of the best establishments I have ever been to in my... life! It’s a great spot for date night, and nice ambiance!

Came here with a friend for a birthday dinner, rolling the dice because the restaurant originally selected was closed. We were... not disappointed. As soon as I had the bruschetta, I knew we were in for a good time. As for entrées, my friend scarfed downthe lasagna and the cocktails our waitress made. My spaghetti was also delightful—wonderful marinara sauce, soft noodles,savory meatballs… What’s more, all the dishes came out hot and beautifully presented…and the staff was very kind. Eventhe Italian owner introduced himself and asked if we were enjoying ourselves. :) My only regret now is not having enough roomfor dessert! Would go again or recommend for a birthday/anniversary/special occasion. Will come back! Read more
