Have been here a couple times and it's been ok but this latest visit in a Tuesday night was very good. We had the Caesar salad, lasagna, eggplant parm, angel hair with creamy pesto and mussels and linguine. All were very good but I would say the angle hair with creamy pesto was the surprise of the dinner. Very good. Service was very good and some nice piano music on a Tuesday night. Prices could be about 10% lower but it is PV. Came on Wednesday as we like to bring our own wine and there is no corkage fee on Mondays and Tuesdays. I would say I still prefer Georgios behind bristol farms but always good to have a couple of good options nearby.

Stopped in for a quick appetizer, got the bruschetta and calamari. Both were very good and we had quick and friendly service. Would recommend and would also come back for a full dinner. Grabbed a photo after we had already started eating.

Just a stone's throw away from the San Vicente Lighthouse, Avenue Italy has some of the best black squid ink pasta I've ever had. Their ambiance is lovely, their outdoor patio welcoming, and their service is friendly and prompt. Avenue Italy also has delicious lasagna, my all-time favorite Italian dish. The sunset from their outdoor tables was stunning. There's something on the menu for everyone, and plenty of superb alcohol, as well. This is my favorite restaurant for when my hubby and I take a day trip to Palos Verde.

So I went back to review again. 1- ambiance It's such a cute cozy place. It really does have a cool vibe 2- service The waiter was also the maitre d. He could have also been the chef, he was handling the whole restaurant... and he was doing great. Great service from the overworked staff 3- food Outstanding. Really good Italian food The deserts are to die for Yes, it's still pricy BUT it is in PV. Compared to other premium spots - such as terranea - I guess I shouldn't whinge so much.

This place is super classy, great Italian food and drink, and a pleasant environment. Tasty pastas and savory pizzas round out the menu. PV is so lucky to have this place, but if you're not from the area, it is still well worth the drive! You'll also receive expedient, receptive and attentive. service. Buono! Grazi a Mille!

Located in a big shopping plaza. Plenty of free parking. Staff was very friendly and courteous. Ordered the chicken piccata. Absolutely delicious. Chicken was cooked to perfection, was thin and tenderized. The sauce and the capers took this chicken to a whole different level. Highly recommend.

Italian food in PV is few and far but Avenue Italy hits the spot quite well. Located in Golden Cove plaza, this quaint little restaurant can get busy on weekends. And if you eat here, you best take your time cause that's the vibe. So what's good here? Pasta, or any of their food honestly. Grab some fettuccine with scallops or linguini with seafood and you're gonna be full, and then some. It's rich in flavor, generous with the seafood, and big in portions. I will say the scallops were cooked pretty well and infused with the sauce so I wasn't just biting into a rubber ball with sauce surrounding it. To finish off the meal, grab yourself a cappuccino and tiramisu or some other dessert. You'll sleep your way into next week with the food coma you'll get here.

Simply fantastic. My wife and I stopped for lunch after visiting mom at Avenue Italy. We started with drinks and the eggplant parmesean for an appetizer, and wow, it was fantastic. Ernesto, our server, was amazing, professional, and friendly. The young man bussing tables was also kind and quite efficient. This place is a favorite when we are in the area. The decor and interior are quite exquisite and impressive. We sat in the patio and had a nice ocean breeze. For one entrees my wife had the branzino entree, and I had the salmon entree. Both dishes were well presented and prepared with flavor and perfectly seasoned. My compliments to the chef. This is a wonderful restaurant, and the food, service, and ambiance are stellar. Highly recommended.
