A passion for food, wine and culture of Italy
The creators of Via Emilia bring to you, Avanti. Inspired by their passion for the food, wine and culture of Italy, where the Orioli family is originally from, and delivered with genuine, authentic hospitality, Avanti brings a casual-elegant dining experience to The Woodlands with two convenient locations, Creekside Park and Research Forest.
Italian classics, fresh ingredients, with a fresh approach
The culinary team is led by Executive Chef Luis Gutierrez, a graduate of the Chef Campus Culinary Institute who traveled across the world in search of experience and hands-on learning. Now, he is dedicated to creating infused flavors and textures that always focus on bringing unique experiences to our guests. He is upholding the mentality that “no job is too small.” and applying it in every aspect of his career. Chef Luis is excited to bring his creative flair to the menu at Avanti, rooted in the Italian classics, using fresh ingredients, and a fresh approach.
