The food is good but they need to be cleaner. Would give 4 stars for taste. No gloves, saw the young guy (cook) playing with his laptop and then handling food, ugh. Didn't wash his hands. I would go back but not until they use gloves or get better cleanliness policies.
We can't say enough about Charlie and his awesome staff at Avanti Gourmet. From our six year old's favorite Meatball Pizza to our favorite Chicken Marsala. We live so close and yet we only discovered this gem recently. I can't wait to try breakfast, too! Thanks so much Charlie for everything! The Ri...
I had never been to this restaurant but after seeing it on Restaurant.com and seeing rave reviews for it I figured I'd buy a Restaurant.com coupon and give this place a try. I went with my husband and another married couple, none of us will ever return. First upon walking in we were ignored for a ra...
Tried Avanti Gourmet tonight for the first time and I must say the food is absolutely fantastic! The service is exceptional! My family and I were not expecting to be blown away - but we were! This is by far the best Italian food in the Nashville area! 5 STARS!!! Looking forward to trying breakfas...
I recently ate here because I was in the mood for something deferent. And different is what I got. I was misfurtuned enough to meet the owner of the establishment. He was sitting next to me reading the paper. When I tryed to make conversation he snapped at me and threatend to throw me out. I had onl...
Tried to eat here last night (2/10/10) and had terrible service. Arrived at 6:15 and left at 7:20 without eating. Food never arrived, had to ask for our salads and water glasses to be refilled. Waitress ignored us as she served people who had arrived after us their food. She never gave us the opport...
I disagree about the too much salt comment. I too am a culinary grad, and have been an executive chef for years. Maybe you had an isolated incident or are used to flavorless chain pizza. Knead dough is the closest thing to a true NY pizza around. The only pizza I have had so far in Nashville that is...
Just an average place to eat...Breakfast was just ok, very small menu for breakfast. Would you like eggs or pancakes? That's about it. For the price, Mimi's is the place to go on Sunday. Also, I suspect that the reviews posted here are indeed from the owners. I'm sure this message will have som...
We live in Hendersonville and have dined quite a few times at Avanti Gourmet. My husband is Italian and makes our pasta and sauces. I know the owner is from New York but the food is just mediocre. Some of the food is frozen, a lot is pre-made and sits in the deli counter for who knows how long an...
I have ate at this fine establishment about 10 times, having tried most of their pizzas. I have been to culinary school, and not once did I detect an over abundance of salt, in fact I only tasted the fresh ingredients and do not recall a salt taste at all. The best pizza, well my favorite, is the ...
Being from Chicago, I was really looking forward to some brick-oven style pizza. Sadly, I was extremely disappointed with Knead Dough Pizzeria in Hendersonville, Tennessee. Both pizza's were loaded with salt. I am far from being sensitive to salt in my foods, so I know there was a TON of salt in t...
Our favorite restaurant, where we go twice per week. Excellent pastas, boutiful quantities, very friendly staff. The owner, Charlie is the best.
We had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant as we traveled east from Jackson, TN. We ordered a Mediterranean-type pizza that was fabulous. We don't have the good fortune of enjoying pizza like this in Jackson, so we will certainly stop again. We are going to let our friends know that this is ...
Knead Dough Pizzeria ROCKS! The white pizza is my favorite this week, I love trying a different pizza every week. The Mile High Lasagna is fantastic as well. Great beer list as well.
The food is amazing. No one has better pizza & the kids wii station is perfect!
The pizza is incredable, but if you get a chance ask for the italian sub STEAMED, it is fantastic. If you haven't been you need to.
Finally a great Pizza in Hendersonville that caters to kids and adults. The food is made in an open kitchen where you are entertained by the pizza makers tossing the fresh dough for each pizza. It is clean, staff is happy and friendly and I got to sit with my family enjoy a beer while the kids where...
We live down Saundersville Road and we sure are lucky to be so close, because we love Avanti Gourmet. Charley and the gang are great and the food is even better. I am Italian, and I promise you my grandmother must have given Charley her recipe for eggplant parmigian. It is absolutely the best I h...
I have been a visitor of Avanti's since they opened. Although dinner is great, breakfast is even better! Thanks, Charlie, for allowing me to be the first to sing at Avanti's. Plus, what better place to eat than one that names a pizza after you?
We found this restaurant by accident when we went to a nearby doctor's office and stopped in to eat afterwards. This is easily the best Italian food I have had and we will keep coming back. The filet mignon is an outstanding value; the pasta dishes are out of this world; the staff exceptionally fr...
