Reviews for Osteria Avanti in Leola, PA
We made dinner reservations because of the room package. I have mixed reviews, i enjoyed my food, but hubby did not + we waited... a very long time. Staff was excellent however, food service was very slow. We had 730p reservations and although, waitressapologized and stated they were short staff - we didn't leave until 945p. Our app took over an hour, salad was forgotten, evenour dessert took another 30 mins. My pasta was delicious (and they accommodated my choice of noodles) however, by the time ourorder was taken - they ran out of lamb - everything else was just OK. Although we waited a very long time, I appreciate staffapologies and communication - even took our drinks off tab. It was nice and convenient just walking over from our room todinner, but unfortunately, it wasnt anything special, so we won't be going back. Side note: be nice to those that actually showup to work, they will reciprocate. Read more
Nice place. Food was top notch. First time back there in 14 years when it used to be Mazi (sp?). Mussels were probably the best... I had anywhere. Almost wanted to ask forna shot glass for the sauce. Steak tips were savory and stick to the ribs. Definitely aheavy meal. Read more
As they say you get what you pay for. Fortunately for me I was a guest at my cousin's wedding so I got to enjoy this amazing... place for free. But I will say this. The food will absolutely not disappoint you. The filet mignon is delicious, the mashedpotatoes are everything you could ever hope for. The servers are phenomenal people. The bartender made excellent drinks. So withall of that being said, whether you're looking for a wedding caterer, a venue or just a great place to eat. I'd highly recommendthem. Read more
My wife and I had an outstanding experience for dinner and drinks at the bar with Hunter, who is a genius with his wine and... drink recommendations. The service was top notch and the food, cocktails and wine were absolutely perfect. Just ask Hunter whichwine he recommends with each course and you can’t go wrong. We will be back again!!! Read more
Great service and delicious food. We enjoyed the BLTA and Caprese chicken sandwich for lunch.
Located at "The Inn at Leola Village," #Osteria Avanti offers a very nice dining experience! Both inside and outside seating is... offered. On my trip here, I experienced the outside patio on both weekend nights. The patio menu offered many light fareoptions. I sampled the Margherita Bread, Pork Sliders, Grilled Burger and pictured in this review a nicely apportionedCharcuterie Board! All of the food selections were really exceptional. The service was beyond good and everyone we met from therestaurant staff were just so friendly. An added bonus would be our chance visit when live music on the patio was offered.Fabulous and intimate, these two nights of local musicians really made me want to return again! What a great place, not to bemissed if you stay here at Leola Village! Read more
Always my favorite! Blessed to live 2.5 miles from this amazing place! Pricey, but always worth it! We love to sit & relax at... the bar area…perfect ambiance, low key, and just an all around great way to end the day! The food & drinks are always onpoint! We love the steamed shrimp & the truffle fries! And, of course, espresso with a lemon twist to finish. ???? Read more
Food was delicious and good portion sizes. Wine list isn't big but covers all the basics. Service could be a bit slow at times,... but our waitress was wonderful and trying her best to keep up. Read more
