The food here was great. I got the shrimp diablo, which was really good. It all came with garlic bread and starter salads, which were great. My mother got gluten free pasta, though, and she said it was not good. Also, despite the restaurant being mostly empty, it took a while for our food to come out, and we sat for about 15 minutes before even being served water. Would recommend regardless.

I want to say that all the food was delicious, and I also want to thank Lilly for all her attention; she was very kind and attentive. My family and I really enjoyed our visit to the restaurant!

Last night I went to the whiskey dinner at Aventino’s and it was so amazing. The reception to start w speciality cocktails and Hors d’oeuvres was super yummy. Then we were seated for an amazing appetizer, salad, main course and dessert. It was a set price and so reasonable. The meal also came w 3 different types of bourbon. They do wine dinners in the same fashion and are worth every penny. The service was also excellent! I go to this restaurant often and love it so much. Very happy to support this small, family owned business that has been around for 40 years!!!! What a special gem to have I in the heart of our city!

From the moment we were seated, the ambiance set the tone for a wonderful evening — from the beautifully understated table décor to the perfectly curated music, everything felt intentional and elevated. Our server, Sydney, was an absolute delight: warm, conversational, and extremely knowledgeable about both the menu and the wines. She made the experience feel personal, not just transactional. We were so immersed in the flavors and the pairings that we didn’t even stop to take photos — a true sign of a great meal. Every dish was beautifully prepared and packed with flavor. We enjoyed the steak carpaccio, the caprese salad with crunchy prosciutto, the Rosa tortellini, the eggplant Parmesan, and the salmon and shrimp Mary Frances. Each plate had its own standout identity, with freshness and balance across the board. This was our first visit, and absolutely not the last. A fantastic dining experience — highly recommend.

Excellent food and friendly staff. We came back after two months. During the first visit, other customers told us done if their favorites. These time we tried the Chicken cannelloni and Lasagna paired with house white and red wines. All are excellent! The restaurant has good taste of decorations too.
