Took my mom to Avanti's last Wednesday for lunch. Received a friendly greeting at the door and got seated right away. Atmosphere was pretty nice - the bar looked pretty thought out, but the dining area was plain. Not bad, but basic. Waitress was very nice and made a few jokes or two. Menu had a good variety and there was a board of specials on our way in that listed at least 4 different things they were offing that day. I got a special - 8" pizza and salad, while my mom was set on beef filled Ravioli and ordered off the menu. Both were quite tasty and good sized. Ingredients tasted all fresh and homemade - Yum! The Ravioli came served on a bed of spaghetti - which sounded weird when the waitress told us - but didn't seem to cause any problems as my mom at every last bit of it. Good prices, good food - and very friend service.
The only complaints I had was I wasn't sure where to park - I think there was a lot in back of the building but was unclear how to get there. Also they misspelled Guinness on the drink board by the door. (really?)
