Incredible food and amazing service! The live music was wonderful, being loud enough to enjoy but quiet enough to still have easy conversations with my party. The special was surf and turf. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The menu isn't huge, but has great options for everyone.

Avanti was one of my favorite experiences at an Italian restaurant. Everything was pretty much perfect. The staff was friendly helpful and very attentive. The food was beautifully presented and as fresh as you can get. The pasta was delicious. The beef was so tender you can cut it with a butter knife. Overall it was a perfect first dining experience in Dallas. 6/5 stars if it was possible.

We celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary here. We were happy to finally get a vegetarian options. My wife ordered spinach ravioli. Good ambience, service live music. Free street parking was not an issue, probably because it was late evening. We ordered 3 items and total came out to be around $53 + tip.

Absolutely, positively the best Italian food I have ever had. We ordered the Garlic loaf, Chicken Limone, Linguine & Meatballs and last but certainly not least, Wild Mushroom Risotto. We finished the night with Tiramisu. Every dish was perfection and packed with flavor. Avanti is AMAZING!

Everything we ordered was awesome! The garlic bread and burrata were great appetizers and the lamb and carbonara were amazing. We’ll definitely be coming back. Thanks!

Great place. Service was on point. Food was really good. Calamari for all then i had crab crusted sea bass which was amazing. We also order mushroom risotto n 2 other dishes which i forgot the names. Every dish was really good and the vibe was amazing. Make sure to reserve though.

I really loved celebrating my 30th birthday here! I got a beautiful Tiramisu. Scallops were the special and they were so good! Very impressed with the service! When you go make sure you ask for Martin!

This place is SO good! I got the crab crusted sea bass which was the best sea bass I have ever had. So fresh and perfectly cooked! My mom got the seafood ravioli which was amazing as well. The mussels appetizer is phenomenal, and their garden salad was tasty as well with balsamic vinegar. I got their “chef’s choice” special dessert which was Italian Cream Cake tonight. Perfection! The wait staff (CJ) and manager were so friendly and kept in contact with us throughout the dinner - everything was perfect! The vibe in here is awesome and the decorations are lovely. My only wish is if they had a real mock-tail menu.

Went here with a couple of friends for a girls night out and everything was amazing. For those worried about parking (I always am when on this side of Dallas!), the restaurant offers free valet parking. The restaurant itself is small and quaint, definitely good for a romantic night out with the mood lighting and the live music (the music isn't too distracting either because it's all acoustic). Because the tables are close though, you will have to talk above the noise so keep that in mind. We had a few cocktails at the bar before being sat at our table and they were really good - shout out to our bartender Emma who gave such amazing recommendations on the menu and really broke down everything for us! When we sat down at the table we then started with the Avanti Garlic Loaf, Calamari Fritti, and a Greek Salad to share. The drinks and the apps tasted great, the Calamari was perfectly cooked and not too chewy, the bread had a lot of flavor, and the Greek Salad was really good. For mains we had the Chicken Limone, the Fettuccine Avanti, and the Carbonara. All of the dishes were really good but my Carbonara was the star for everyone. I had subbed the Farfalle for Angel Hair pasta and had some extra carbonara sauce to add to the dish and it was so delicious 🤤 The medallions that came with the Fettuccini Avanti were also well cooked and very tender. The Chicken was really good as well, not too over done but juicy with flavor. For dessert we had the Creme Brûlée and the Peanut Butter Chocolate Pie. The Creme Brûlée was amazing, just the right rich consistency. The Pie was good as well but it was very thick and rich - you definitely have to share that because it's hard to finish on your own. The Pie wasn't really my favorite but that's only because I'm not much of a chocolate person - but everyone else liked it but again, it was just very rich. I've had this restaurant saved for some time now as a really good Italian restaurant to try in the metroplex and I was not disappointed! Would definitely love to come back again for dinner.

Ashley was amazing! Went above and beyond to make sure we had a nice evening. The food is great, the music so calming and peaceful. And the cucumber martini was spectacular. Definitely recommended.

This was amazing. From the impeccable service that first started at the valet. To the incredible atmosphere and impeccable service. The food was delicious, the cocktails delightful, and the dessert made my tastebuds explode. If I could rate higher I would.

Food was tasty, good portion size, service was good Salem was our server, she had great timing and recommendations. Great date night on a Thursday. Presentation of the food wasn't too pretty but tasty.

Came here for my daughter’s birthday and we WERE NOT disappointed. Everything and everyone was so pleasantly pleasing😉.

We have a list of restaurants we need to try in the Dallas area, yet we keep coming back to Avanti. The food is amazing, and I say that as someone who has never had the same thing twice here. EVERYTHING on the menu is top notch. The service staff is also so welcoming, prompt and communicative. The live music is soft enough that you can have a conversation with your party, but loud enough to create a lovely atmosphere. Oh! And the Wednesday date-night menu is unbeatable!!

Avanti was great! The food was authentic and fresh. The service was top-notch. Our server was probably the biggest man in the room but was a total gentle giant. Great personality and sincere service. Atmosphere was great with the live music as well. I thoroughly enjoyed dinner here
