Avanti Caffe — Restaurant in Chicago

Well this is a step up from eating at Luke's sandwich shop across the street ambience Wise It's not a hole in the wall it's more bougie and trendy. The service was much more friendly although I paid a little more and also I ordered a little more for my lunch. My main order was the meat lasagna which came with salad and drink but I didn't care for the salad I wanted a soup of the day. It was either minestrone or pasta fagioli soup. I went for the pasta fagioli soup which was tomato based light minestrone but had beans. It was actually delicious. I then moved on and ordered since I had a craving for arancini. It was good too I ordered the meat base one versus the spinached one. We separate the marinara or the tomato based sauce which tasted fresh. And it wasn't heavy. Most homemade arancini it's almost like a meal and it's heavy because I already ordered lasagna but it was delicious and light as an extra appetizer. The meat lasagna was actually very delicious but she's tasted fresh the sauces taste the fresh it's like a step up from Sbarro's lasagna from the mall. It comes with a complimentary bread.

I don’t really have anything bad to say about Avanti Caffe. It’s an all around great place to dine. We were looking for a quick bite to eat while we waited for our event to start. Nice cozy place with great service. Everyone in our party sat around and talked and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their food and walked out quite fool.

I had the meatball sub and it was fantastic. I couldn’t even finish the entire sandwich. The prices are really affordable especially given the location. A friend of mine ordered the chocolate mousse and she shared a bite with me. Wow...
