Customer Reviews
You get what you pay for. Its cheap italian. Good sandwiches though. If you order something online order it open face otherwise you're getting a crappy hot sandwich. Ordered cheesy garlic bread and the 2 pieces came sandwiched together. So they sent me a garlic grilled cheese not cheesy garlic bread. And there must have been a lettuce shortage. See pic of Gondola "Deluxe". Deluxe in parentheses as theres nothing Deluxe about it.
I grew up on Avanti that’s hometown flavor right there. The kind of spot that raised half the city off that gondola bread. Their pizza bread? Man, that’s the one. Extra mozzarella, extra memories. I don’t even eat it like that anymore, but back then? It was unbeatable. They’ve been consistent for years same familiar faces, same warm service, same bread that keeps you coming back no matter how far you’ve gone in life. Louie K’s Up some spots ain’t just restaurants… they’re roots. 🍞🔥❤️
Hard pass. This is basic good at best. I see all the reviews and two things are missing from this place..HEART and QUALITY. I was hoping for some great food at a reasonable price. On a positive note, the fried mushrooms were great! I tried two different sauces with my spaghetti and both are crazy acidic…doesn’t need to be. You can tell the sauces are not homemade, but almost seem more like an after thought for what should be a main focus. My sever was nice! That’s a plus. The hostess seemed to not care if she was there. Had her head down and looking at her phone…that’s basic, no phones allowed while on shift. Like parents say…I’m not angry, I’m just disappointed!
Food is great and employees are nice. The Gondolas we got were good and the fried ravs were amazing. Did Carry out and the space was small which was a bit claustrophobic but not a huge issue.
Mother's Day Buffet 5/25 Serving plates were hot and wet had to call for someone to come fix that. The on the Buffet was spaghetti w 2 types sauces were ok. Ham was good but loaded with pineapple. Broccoli was mixed with a few green green beans. Homemade whipped potatoes looked OK no taste though, the gravy along side had huge lumps, which needed to be strained before serving. Salad was good, 3 types of dressing. Gondola sandwiches were usual. Macaroni n cheese made rigatoni n absolutely the worst. Fried Chicken was burnt to fist layer of chicken, inedible. Everyone complaining. They are doing nothing to fix any of it. Everything was cold or not up to tempature at all. I told waitress, bus boy, cashier, no manager around. Service was nill. After 15 minutes sitting had to ask buss girl to p
