Behind the scenes, and the length of the building, is an on-premises professional kitchen where their menus of ready-to-eat foods are cooked from scratch daily. Service is paramount at Avanti with expertly trained staff who can assist in selections, recipes and serving tips. Avanti is also a moment’s walk from Southampton Wines, for counsel on the best wine pairing with dining selections, A full schedule of events and tastings are planned for the high season on the upstairs deck.![]() |
