The food here is to die for! My husband and I love coming and trying new places. This little gem is hidden away and somehow we went by this place for a couple years when we came to town but happened to find it one day after a friend recommended we try it next time we come to town. Our staff was top notch as well!!

First time here, it was good. We had the specials, halibut dish and seafood linguine, I felt like the sauce for the halibut was a little fussy but the fish was good. Seafood linguine was a hit, good flavor with roasted red pepper. It was a little pricey, so definitely a splurge type of night out. Might be back for the creme brûlée though!! Definitely save room for the creme brûlée, you won’t be disappointed. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Nice place, it’s a little loud, hard to have a conversation without speaking up, but a relaxed atmosphere.

Kelli was a rockstar waitress! She was helpful, honest and had strong opinions about her favorite dishes which I really appreciated as someone who struggles to make decisions. The dishes she suggested were amazing. A little pricey, but a great valentines weekend splurge!

This is one of my favorite Italian restaurants. The environment is very warm and elegant..the service has always been great and consistent. The quality of food has not yet been disappointing. Friday nights are very busy, almost guaranteed. You will have to wait for seating if you go on Friday.

Oh, Avanzare; where do I start from? I had my birthday here, it was nothing short of awesome, the staff were the absolute best, everyone that came to my birthday loved the food and had positive things to say. I had a reservation earlier, but the party before me wasn’t leaving on time; they made sure to work with me and gave freebies to accommodate for the delay, they even attended to us more than hour past their closing time. My birthday dinner was converted to a big time African/Latino party, the staff plus my guests were all turning up; thanks to the staff at Avanzare. Tony was nothing short of an amazing host.. made us feel really welcome, accommodating. I can’t rem my servers name, but if she does see this; thank you for being wholesome and attentive to all of our needs.

I came to this restaurant maybe 3 years ago. And the food was delicious and the service was awesome. I felt today. It definitely is not the same. Maybe because more people are there. They have the kitchen right in front of You to be able to see when a server picks up a decoration leaf off the counter and just put it into aomeones potato salad. The chefs don’t use gloves and grab everything with their fingers, even the spices.. I ate at the bar, and the bartender treated me like I was at a bar.. He had to try hard to be nice. His serviced sucked to say the least. It’s sad that the place has changed so much. I want to thank the cook, though, because his fingers tasted good.. ✌️

This place is an absolute pleasure to go to. Me and my wife have gone twice so far, and each time has been a wonderful experience. It was a little loud, but good times call for that environment. Sam was an exceptional waitress, always checking in on us periodically, with speed and precision.

The stripmall was shady and almost kept us from going in. The ambience inside was what you’d expect from an italian restaurant. The ac was going on too strong which left me freezing. The food wasn’t great, some Ragú sauce from home would’ve cut it. The lasagna tasted off but was okay. I very much liked my drink. Wouldn’t personally go there again.
