Avanzare Italian Dining

Avanzare Italian Dining exceeded every expectation. From the elegant ambiance to the attentive, friendly service, everything about our visit was top-notch. It’s clear the team here cares deeply about creating a memorable dining experience. The food was phenomenal, but the standout for me was the ribeye—truly one of the best I’ve had in my life. Cooked to perfection, incredibly tender, and packed with flavor, it’s a dish I’ll be thinking about for a long time. The pasta and appetizers were equally impressive, with fresh ingredients and rich, authentic flavors in every bite. Yes, it’s on the pricier side—but it’s worth every penny. If you’re looking for a high-quality Italian meal that delivers across the board, Avanzare is the place. Highly recommended.

Everyone's food was done perfectly, and the staff was attentive even though it was very busy. Everything tasted like it was made for scratch. Food was on the pricy side but worth it. Great place for a date or special occasion.

My son in Law could not have picked a better fine dining place. Excellence in Italian culinary, my compliments to the chef. Absolutely deserving of compliments all around. Che buono!

This place was everything you want in Italian fine dining! Exceptional food and the restaurant is stunning. I had the lobster ravioli with sauteed shrimp in a spicy red sauce with a hint of cream. Yum! Started my meal with caprese with balsamic reduction. And my waitress Anna R was just delightful, attentive and very knowledgeable. Plus you can't beat the pesto butter with warm bread brought to the table. Highly recommend!

We were in town and I looked up fine dining and found this place. There are so many reviews saying negative things about this place, there’s plenty of good also but I can’t figure out why someone wouldn’t like this place. It is open concept so I can’t figure see how it might get a lil loud but it’s a bustling restaurant and ppl are enjoying themselves, laughing, talking and having a good time, ya it’s gonna get a lil loud but it was nothing that would ever bother me. I did notice the staff was standing around a lot like one of the reviews said but they were standing at the kitchen window waiting on orders like they’re supposed to do. It’s funny bc I noticed everything I read in the bad reviews and every single one of them was something you see at any restaurant. I’m guessing the ppl that wrote these reviews aren’t pleased very easy and might be a “Karen/Kyle” lol. I just thought it needed to be said bc we had a great time at Avanzare’s, we had dinner and left completely satisfied. It’s a really nice beautiful building, the staff was great and never left us needing a single thing at anytime. I’ve traveled a lot and Avanzare’s has become one of my favorites places. We had the Veal and the Giant meatball special, the Veal was delicious and perfectly cooked. My wife got the meatball and I had regrets not getting it myself. It was incredible, I could eat that everyday. We also had the creme brulee and the Italian lemon cake which both were also delicious. Even their sweet tea was excellent. I can’t imagine why someone wouldn’t like this place. I hope ppl read my book I just wrote and ignore the haters and try this place bc you will not be disappointed. To the ppl that didn’t like this place I pity you bc you don’t have tastebuds lol.

Amazing food with a great atmosphere. Everything I tried was amazing. We tried the lasagna and salmonand both we great.

The food was delicious, and I had a wonderful time with my partner. I had made a reservation for 7:30, and while it took a bit longer to be seated and get our food due to how busy they were, the experience was well worth the wait. Our server was outstanding—when I ordered a drink I didn’t care for, he promptly replaced it with a different one without any hesitation.

There is no better service in town! Always friendly and always spectacular. And the food is amazing with giant servings. Hands down my favorite Italian place in Springfield. We almost always get one of the specials as they are always fire and unique. Took my mom and dad here for mothers day and they are in love (and my dad's kind of a picky eater ).
