Avanti Italian Bistro and Bar

Our first time at the restaurant. We got seated immediately. There was a slight delay in taking our food order. Food was hot and very tasty. One issue with the shrimp plate my daughter ordered. Shrimp was not devained. Our waitress was quick to offer another dish and placed the new order as '911 ' which was great. We will definitely return again.

Always great food! Always great service from Nidal! This place is a family favorite and we love coming here. Gorgeous aesthetics and very elegant.

I am saddened to hear that the owners of Avanti's are retiring and have sold the restaurant. It is unfortunate to see another longtime establishment in Pasadena go. I have been a fan of their food ever since they had their pizza cafe on Lake Avenue. I have great memories of celebrating a big birthday party there, where all the guests enjoyed the atmosphere, service, and menu. I wish Bobby and Mina all the best in their retirement and future travels.

The dinner was fantastic, as always. I absolutely adored the lasagna!

Always a lovely dinner and experience. Presentation, taste, service, just delightful
