   After hearing glowing reviews from coworkers, I had to check it out for myself – and I’m so glad I did! I highly recommend making a reservation. We visited on a Friday night and were lucky to have one, as the place was packed! We started with the bread service, which was warm and delicious, and the crab cakes. Just a heads-up—if you're dining with more than two people, definitely order extra crab cakes! They were so tasty, but we each only got one. For our entrees, we chose the prime rib special and the scallops. The scallops were perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the broccoli had a crisp, flavorful touch without being overpowering. The prime rib was massive, cooked to perfection, and practically melted in your mouth—it was so tender you could almost cut it with a butter knife. To top it all off, the key lime pie was hands down the best I’ve ever had. Given the quality of the food, the pricing is very reasonable, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The aesthetic is elegant but has personable touches to the brand. A truly fantastic dining experience!

   Seated by hostess then waited over 10 minutes for service. Finally went back to hostess to ask if our table had a server. Once the waitress showed up, my son and I both ordered. Sautéed Prawns with capellini pasta. The waitress asked “are you okay that’s it’s little spicy?” and we replied “yes.” When the meal was served there was no spice whatsoever; no chilli flakes as described on the menu. We told the waitress and she just said “oh, they must have forgot.” No offer to replace nor any ‘make good’ like a free drink, dessert or discount.

   It is the best Porkchop in the city if you like traditional chops.. Dame has the other great chop but they are very different. Dame has that spice and Carmina chile while this is a giant piece or perfectly smoked bacon

   The prices are a bit on the higher side but the quality and amount of food served is certainly worth it.

   Avanti Restaurant is one of our favorites. When we have family or friends in town, we love to take them to Avanti's. The food is always delicious and the staff are so friendly.

   Dependable, consistent excellence from the cuisine to the staff. Menu offers a nice variety and drinks are spot on. They offer dinner and wine specials on Friday-Sunday. I’ve had most of the items on the menu. Menu changed up by a few offerings seasonal which is nice too. Staff are very responsive and attentive even when full-which is most nights. My advice is -give them a try because once you do you will find yourself being a regular. We are foodies and frugal. However when the meal is this good-it’s money well spent. ♥️.
