                    I love the pizza at Avvio and today's white pizza special with butternut squash and pumpkin seeds was terrific. Always great service too. Manager stops by to ask if all o.k. which is always a nice feeling.

                    Plenty of choices on the menu for lunch. Very courteous waitresses, receptionists and staff. We were not rushed. Food came out in a timely fashion and it was hot and delicious.

                    Saturday night, dinner for 4. The server was really nice and knowledgeable. Great suggestions. The food was really very good. Octopus and eggplant appetizers were great. We had chicken piccata, Caesar with salmon, spinach radiatore, and I forget the 4th. We all loved our meals. The drinks were a very light pour. We were not impressed with the alcohol content in all 3 mixed drinks. My Manhattan didn’t come close to the rim of a small coupe glass. The lighting is a bit bright for a nice dinner. It is more of a family atmosphere with the bright lighting. The ambience would be enhanced with dimmer switches. Overall it was a good experience. We’ll come back for lunch.
