First off THANK YOU for another wonderful dining experience. We just visited your restaurant on Aug. 26th for our anniversary dinner. At that time we purchased one of your cookbooks in hopes of recreating some of your magic.

Some of your receipts call for white wine… Problem is neither of us are big wine drinkers. So the question is what do you recommend we stock our kitchen with? Also what is a good Marsala wine

Thanks and we look forward to coming back SOON.   


Hey there, We just finished dinner. Scallops Casalinga. From your seafood "Italian Style" cook book. Simple but elegant. Great sauce. Love it.

We just ate at your restaurant – loved the chicken soup.
Looking forward to the cookbook.

Thank you

We love your restaurant! and recommend it to everyone we know on the coast. We live in Seattle and do not get down there often enough although we have had a home there for many years.

We consider your dinners a peak experience.

Dear Avanti,

We had dinner at your restaurant this evening and the meals were absolutely marvelous. The waitresses were excellent and we truly enjoyed the food. It is by far the best that we have had during our stay at Lincoln City. We fell in love with your Italian salad dressing . Would you please share the recipe with us?

Thank you,

Charlene Strasser


Leslie,
Thank you so much for your quick response to my recipe request. Until my wife, Marsha, retires at the end of August, I am the head chef in our house, as I have been for the past five years. I'll have to give the recipe a whirl sometime soon, but I'm sure it won't measure up to yours that is served at Avanti. The only time I had some that comes close was several years ago in Stamford, CT and we went there two nights in a row, just so I could have the linguine with clam sauce.

Thanks again, and we'll be in to see you on our next trip to Lincoln City.

Hi guys. Finally got a chance to check out your website. Nice job. Didn't know Joe was an artist! Well, knew he was one in the kitchen, but....

Anyway, nice work. Even told some folks recently to check your place out and don't know if they showed up or not, but can't hurt. (DrHK)

 


Ciaro,

We just want you and your staff to know how happy we are that we decided to have dinner at AVANTI'S Wednesday evening. We have been to Lincoln City, many times and never found a restaurant that we really liked, but we have now.

I can hardly wait to make another trip to Lincoln City for dinner at AVANTI'S. 

Thank You,

Sincerely, Alex and Donna Palica



Good eats

We get a lot of suggestions on which restaurants we should review. I don’t think any have been quite so enthusiastic as the letter from Gary Cook of Aurora. He said his meal was one of the best he’s ever had.

“I’d had about one half of a teaspoonful of their great sauce on my plate and was embarrassed to ask for a piece of bread to ‘clean up my plate,’ ” he wrote. “Reasonably priced and a nice view, it was all I could do to keep from buying land to live right next to the restaurant.”

Cook was writing about Avanti’s, an Italian restaurant in Lincoln City. I’d say he likes the place.
 


Avanti,
My friends and I recently visited the Oregon coast for a week-long vacation. Choosing a different dining experience each day, we chose Avanti on the 4th day and didn't stop talking about how great it was the rest of our trip. We truly enjoyed our dining experience!

Being a vegetarian, I sometimes have limited choices from menus - Not the case at Avanti! My difficulty was in choosing from the wide variety of vegetarian dishes offered.

Our meal was the best Italian fare we've had - ever - and we will certainly stop by next time we visit the Oregon Coast. The service was just what we wanted and we even got hugs from Mom before we left.

Mille Grazie!

DINING AT IT'S FINEST!


We have been happy diners of the Avanti restaurant since we first went through their doors in 2000.

From the first it was most evident the skill, taste and caring of Joe and Leslie. We have over these same years repeatedly recommended the Avanti to our friends who have joined us in our good feelings. We of course therefore are totally happy to recommend Avanti to one and all.

Bon Appetite...

Just wanted to say that my wife and I had the most pleasurable meal at your fine restaurant on February 15, 2004. Great family service. I would highly recommend the Misto Mare. Finest prepared Italian dish I have ever eaten. Thank you Donna, Leslie and the opportunity to go back into the kitchen and meet Guiseppe. We can't wait to return!

Avanti,
My husband and I were visiting L.City last Wednesday, and when trying to decide where to go for dinner we decided to try your establishment (menu in motel lobby). We got to your restaurant 15 minutes before you closed and ordered take-out; calamari, seafood fettuccine & linguine w/ clam sauce. It was WONDERFUL! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was great.
We will definitely visit you again!!

BUON GIORNO,

I WANT TO TELL YOU HOW GLAD I AM THAT THERE IS GREAT ITALIAN FOOD IN LINCOLN CITY.

MY FRIEND AND I HAVE BEEN ENJOYING YOUR MEALS AND GOOD WINE AND APPRECIATE YOUR MARKING THE MENU FOR VEGETARIANS.
YOUR STAFF IS ALWAYS CHEERFUL AND ENTHUSIASTIC.
THE AROMA AND THE VIEW MAKE THE ATMOSPHERE TERRIFIC ALSO.

GRAZIE,
STELLA BELLA

Hi,
My wife and I had a really great meal at your restaurant last week. Afterwards I asked about obtaining a recipe for your pastina soup with Italian sausage and was told that by e-mailing you I could get a recipe. That soup is really good and I would like to have something like it at home. I’m afraid that it’ll be months before we will have a chance to visit the area and your restaurant again.

Thanks,

Gary Rizzuti

 



Hello,


I want to thank you for the delicious Italian dinner I had last Wednesday
night. Avanti is the best I've ever dined on the Oregon coast.

My best regards to the grandmother and the Chef.

Thank you and take care. Smile.
