Avanti Pizza Fresh Pasta — Restaurant in Atherton

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!

I highly recommend this place, my foodie...

As somebody who makes pizza we all know it's about the sauce and is the sauce and the crust here you will...

I think this place might be under new management. They replaced their cashiers with iPads.

They have some drinks that seem pretty interesting, but they're prepared long after you've been served your food. Employee morale seems low, perhaps because they're being replaced by iPads and because they spend their day seeing cardboard get thrown...
