"Except for the Private Dining Room being a little on the cool side, it was a definite fine dining experience. Awesome staff and the ambiance was much better than you would expect for the locale (strip mall). The Calamari was an excellent appetizer and both my wife and I loved the dishes we were served in perfect timing."

"The food was good as always. They wouldn't make my son his lobster ravioli like they always do. The place was so noisy that we all had a headache before we got our food which took forever. It was the worst experience I have ever had there. Noisy, slow food and service."

"Avanzare's was excellent. The wine list is very nice and nicely arranged with a great selection of wines under $30. The lasagna is the best in town. They make their own sausage and noodles for the lasagna. It has a little spicyness which is really nice and it just melts in your mouth."

"The food was excellent as always. Our waiter was exceptional. He did not hover or interrupt conversation. Yet, we were served wonderfully which can be a challenge on Valentine's Day. We were given a nice, secluded booth which added to the ambiance."

"Having lived in Italy for several years I am always looking for authentic Italian dining. Although I prefer southern Italian (Napoli) to northern I love it all. Avanzare's is a unique and very pleasurable dining experience."
