Who doesn’t like an Avanti’s gondola. When family comes to town it is a must have! And it never disappoints…..

This is a good place to eat, but wasn't what we were expecting.. I thought sit down Italian restaurant.. nope, order at the counter. Seat yourself. Get your own drink. They bring food to your table, but no other interaction w/staff. Had to go back to the counter to get boxes.

My food was expired and undercooked....the manager Rick embarrassed me and my family in front of a room of people...after bringing it to his attention...

Am I the only one that is starting to think the only reason I still come here is because of the memories of when it was a walk up restaurant with a pickup window and the food was really good . I’m really starting to feel the nostalgia isn’t enough to keep my business. The food quality is going down hill about as fast a the proportions . So Anyone know where to get a decent Italian beef sandwich in Bloomington normal because the last the last two I have gotten from here we sub par at best . It’s sad the place I remember and what is has become are so different . the only thing Avanti’s has going for it is friendly staff and a clean dinning room with no concerns about loosing food quality .

I love Avanti's. I come here everything I am in town. The food is good. I was disappointed this last time though. I ordered a turkey and cheese sandwich no lettuce for my trip home, and when I opened it up it was a turkey and tomato sandwich. Maybe someone else's order, but it wasn't mine.

It made me sad, but I was able to give it away. It did not get wasted.

I ordered a deluxe gondola with mayo. It was supposed to have extra ham and salami but I don’t think it did. They forgot my mayo and my fried mushrooms were very soggy. They didn’t even put napkins in the bag.

I have been here only twice and got the same thing both times. The Gondola sandwich is very good and way worth the price. Nothing there seemed to be too expensive. The 1st time we went was with my family of 5 and my daughters softball team and their families. They were loud and playing around but the staff was very cool about it and let them have fun even though they could not even hear us order. Anyways, I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone
