We LOVE this place! The service is wonderful and its quiet so its easy to talk with your friends, They always have wonderful specials, awesome salads and wonderful soups and of course some of the best pizza in Santa Cruz they even have GF pizza! Great wine list but I do wish they had sauvingon blanc. Always Fresh, quality ingredients great service and wonderful food! The best kept secret on the west side of Santa Cruz! Pizzeria Avanti is my favorite place to eat in Santa Cruz!

So I went to this pizzeria the first month they started with my eleven year old. We had a salad an app and I had pasta meatball she had pizza. It all was so bland. So 1 year later, after a few of my clients swore by it. I decided to give it another chance. I called and made a pick up order. I ordered two Brussels sprout salads and chicken wings a chicken Alfredo and the pizza special. After I picked it up and made it home I realized the chicken Alfredo was a shrimp pasta. So I called and went to get rite food. The told me sport about that and sent me off with my chicken Alfredo. No refund no free desert nothing. I got my food it was bland again. The chicken Alfredo was dry and three maybe for small slices of chicken and barely any sauce. The chicken wings were soggy(dominos pizza makes a better wing) witch isn’t saying much. The salads had like for brussel sprout halves. It was awful seriously sad. They should not use the word avanti as there name cause they don’t come close.
