Long review coming: a friend took us to this place. The selling point was pizza and boba teas under the same roof. In the rain.... What came after that was a lovely surprise! The most amazing pizzas! Not overloaded with stuff. Medium thin crust with just enough flavor, bought suffocated with cheese, amazing flavor combination of organic fresh ingredients. Best. Pizza. Ever. Eat your heart out, Joe Ciolli! The teas: when you order these teas you always cringe inside because you anticipate a syrupy concoction. We ordered passion, lemonade, strawberry milk and we got to taste the mojito, which was in evolution ( recipe perfection) . Wow! You taste the tea....not the syrup. Very smooth and tasty! Then we met the owner, Arash! He sat with us, chatted with us, told us his story. What an incredibly amazing holiday treat this visit to Avanti Pizza this was! I highly recommend this place, my foodie friends!!!!!

Best pizza in the region! And it travels really well during delivery and take out. It's just perfect. Although we love the pepperoni pizza, we've also fallen hard for a simple Italian sausage with honey. Fabulous pizza.

Excellent pizza. The crust was absolutely perfect! And I am a very picky eater. I loved it! I also had the spaghetti with meatballs. Loved it all, could have used more marinara but I like mine with extra, extra sauce. The flavor of their sauce was very good. Tasted authentic to me I would definitely recommend Avanti Pizza for anyone looking for an authentic Italian pizza or pasta.

I've bought pizza here twice, the first time it was perfect, my favorite in the area. Strong undercarriage, good quality cheese, crispy pepperoni. But yesterday it was overdone, burned in some places and the crust was tough and crumbled like a cracker upon biting. My impression is that Avanti can make great pizza, but it's inconsistent.
