Yummy pizzas!

Avanti is my local pizza shop, and I eat there fairly often. I haven't tried anything that I just didn't like, but pizza is definitely their forte. The lasgna is yummy, I love the flavor of their sauce, but actually wish for more noodle, since the majority of the dish is just sauce and cheese. The portions are generous so you could actually split the lasagna for 2 people or take home leftovers for a full meal (since it includes a pretty basic salad and some bread). I'm a BIG fan of the sicilian style pizzas- artichoke and ham is the best!

This restaurant is more fast-food style even though it IS a sit down restaurant. You order at the counter and then seat yourself. They'll take your meal to your table.

• Pros: Pizza is good, staff is friendly

This is a great place to eat even for families! I have 3 children and the lady that waited on us went out of her way to make us comfortable. We ordered 2 large pizzas and she even plated them for us, as i was busy with my 2 year old! She was very helpful and the pizza was to die for! Thanks Ashely!

• Pros: best pizza and wonderful service
• Cons: restaurants a little small

I have ordered pizza from Avanti's several times, and I have always been beyond happy. I love New York style pizza and that is what you get. The last time I ordered a pick-up and my friends and I got three different entree's. They were awful! I would have been much happier with Chef Boyardee. The pasta in the dishes was overcooked and mushy, the sauces were bland and under seasoned. They also messed up the order, and we had to return to pick up some things. One of those things was the garlic rolls, which ended up also not being good. If you go here stick with the pizza!!

• Pros: Best New York Styly Pizza
• Cons: Other entrees were flavorless and boring.
