“Rosario was our server! We went for our 4yr wedding anniversary and got the Tomahawk for 2. It was absolutely amazing and the cheese onion mash potatoes were out of this world. So creamy and delicious!! I'm not a fan of brussel sprouts but let me say they were very good and excellent flavor. For dessert we shared the traditional tiramisu. Straight up, this was by far the very best I've ever had. We got coffee and cappuccino which was also very delicious.
I highly recommend and will 💯 be back again. The bottle of Riesling was very very good! Rosario was excellent! Explained everything in great detail, was very attentive and we had great short conversation. He's truly a gentleman and bright the traditional Italian vibe to our dinner.“

“Stopped for lunch with hubs and friends. We we're looking to share a pizza, this is NOT that place. Yes, personal size for dine in. We opted for sandwiches. 2 ordered the roast pork, broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and both finished and raved how delicious 😋 Other 2 of us ordered the cheesesteak with LTO, red wine vinegar and olive oil, I added light mayo. The rolls these sandwiches were served were fantastic 😋 The sammies were NOT "packed" with fillings like a cheesesteak joint. Nicely presented with homemade potato chips. Quality of ingredients is huge because I can't eat a lot. The red wine vinegar and olive oil was top notch. I use red wine vinegar almost daily 😋 I would definitely go back for the same meal, about 1hr from my home and worth the trip 😋“

“Just had their pizza for the first time this weekend and wow!! Amazing! 🤩 we went to Italian Villa for years but now they are closed and I am so happy to find another close place to get our pizza Highly recommended!“

“You will always see this place full of happy returning patrons and we are two of them. Food quality is fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. You have to try their Brick Oven pizzas. If you crave an American cheese hoagie, that is prepared on the best tasting roll in New Jersey, delicious cheese, and crisp lettuce and onions, try one of theirs. The very best that we have ever judged.“

“Huge shoutout to Angelo’s tonight. Only wish I would’ve remembered my server’s name, to give her extra recognition here. We went out for an important dinner tonight. We were celebrating something small, but meaningful. When we called they had no reservations available for the evening, but then called us back and squeezed us in at 4:30. The power went out in the entire city after we were served our first course. We were served our entrees in the dark, with the same elegance, as of nothing had occurred. Even with the unfortunate circumstances, we were treated like royalty by the entire staff, and had an exceptional dining experience. I will be dreaming of the escarole, until I have it again. Thank you Angelo’s! Great job! 👏🏽“
