The fire is burning, the pans are sizzling, the kitchen is cranking, and customers are flocking to Avvio Ristorante. Located in the Garden City Center in Cranston, Rhode Island, Avvio is lot nicer than most neighborhood Italian restaurants and pizzerias, but a lot less expensive than you’d expect, considering the consistently fresh and authentic food of Chef Greg Coccio.

“The approach we took while developing this restaurant was, preparing simple foods for the everyday meal experience; using really good technique, well thought out flavors, combined together to make some really good dishes.”
