Feedback
Once a beloved staple in Bloomington-Normal, Avanti's has faced significant shifts since the pandemic, leaving many longtime patrons disheartened. The dining experience now leans towards a cafeteria-style service, with limited menu options that fail to capture the restaurant's previous charm. Patrons have reported disappointing food quality, including inadequate portion sizes and unremarkable flavors. Although the nostalgic Italian ambiance remains, with some positive mentions of certain dishes, the overall atmosphere and service have struggled. Avanti's legacy as a community favorite hangs in the balance, marked by a blend of fond memories and recent disappointments.
Came from Omaha for a Gondola I had as a kid when I lived here. Love it! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
This has gone to cafe service instead of a wait staff but that isn't posted anywhere and no one working there was kind enough to tell us as we went in and sat at a table and waited. We finally figured it out on our own and decided to go to the take out section to just order to go and go eat at a park. Then the food was super disappointing too. Our order was wrong, the portions were small, spaghetti was mushy ...... so sad. We have always loved Aventis but this was super disappointing. Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
