Avanti Italian Bistro and Bar

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

Seating was easy and fast. The waiter took our drink order quickly and shortly afterwards our complete order.?Foods Arroyo Ahhhh and Tower The and hot. It was great. We had a difficult time getting our check, but otherwise I will definitely go back

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.
