Avanti Cafe

We love this place and think the food and service is just great!
We love the garlic rolls, the pizza and pasta. Its the kind of place we return to often. The owner is usually on site and keeps everything in great shape.

the food at this place was terrific! loved the pizza loved the garlic knots. the salad was pretty good. service was a little weird and slow but they were working as hard and fast as they could and were friendly enough. this is a good place to go if you aren't in a hurry. tasty gourmet pizzas!

PROS: wonderful food
CONS: slow service

This place is very small but has good food. There were only two waiters and it was pretty busy so it took a while to get everything. They have good garlic knots that most people order. They have gourmet pizzas that are different and really good. Like I said it is small so it was a little stuffy and you kinda felt like you were eating on top of the person sitting next to you. Good food and not too expensive.

The last three times I have gone there the service was really bad. The waiters don't seem to check up on you after you have been seated. One time I waited 30 minutes and after a difficult time trying to flag down a waiter/server I left. It's really too bad because the food is good.

PROS: Good Food
CONS: Really bad service and parking.

Probably as close as one will get to authentic Italian pizza in LA. The food is good, and the chefs have some great pasta specials. The cappucinos are bellissimo! The only problem is the service. For some reason, the wait staff is incredibly slow, and not particularly attentive. Go if you're not in a hurry. Otherwise, just order take out.
