L'Angeletto

Top Italian in the Neighborhood!I don't visit L'Angelettos often--in fact, it's been a few years--but after tonight's meal, it's definitely going to become a regular spot for me. The restaurant has such a charming vibe; it's cute, cozy, and was pleasantly quiet with only about six other tables occupied, perfect for a relaxed Sunday night dinner.The food? Absolutely incredible! Every dish was perfection, and we didn't have a single complaint. The service was excellent as well--attentive but never rushed--which made our 70th birthday celebration even more special.We started with the shrimp appetizer, which was so flavorful, and the eggplant appetizer, which had a subtle Middle Eastern twist--absolutely delicious. For our mains: 1. Cacio e Pepe - This is one of my favorite Italian dishes, and tonight's version was hands down the best I've had in the city. Creamy, perfectly balanced, and utterly satisfying. 2. Bucatini All'Amatriciana - A red sauce with smoked pancetta that was rich and hearty. My sister was thrilled to take home the leftovers. 3. Lasagna - Can you ever go wrong? This classic was a crowd-pleaser. 4. Branzino - While I didn't try it, the birthday girl raved about it! 5. Chickpea Gnocchi with Roquefort Cheese - We were a bit apprehensive because we love bold cheeses, but this dish exceeded expectations. The gnocchi was pillowy soft, and the cheese was subtle and perfectly blended in a light sauce.To finish, we shared a dessert that was out of this world--a slice of cake layered with pistachio, ricotta cheese, and cake, topped with a raspberry drizzle. It was the perfect ending to an amazing meal.L'Angelettos is truly a neighborhood gem. It's no wonder they survived the pandemic--they're a solid 10/10. Highly recommend!

I'm surprised I haven't YELPed L'Angeletto before! This is our special place to go after major events or special family visits. We usual go when it is a quiet afternoon because the place is so beautiful during the day with the sun coming in from their bank of windows. However, we have also eaten there during busy dinner hours and have witnessed amazing dishes being served and the warm welcoming service everyone receives- whether a regular or a new customer. The gentlemen who work here make this a neighborhood experience.Our meals here - every single time - have been spectacular. The bruschetta platter, the calamari...we often order the spaghetti with tomato and basil as an appetizer. The steak, the tuna steak when it is on the menu, the salmon, the black linguini di mar, the vongole & pasta... not one dish less than heavenly....Today, we had hoped to dine there but due to illness did a take-out - a full feast from appetizers to dessert. We don't live far but didn't expect the food to be as incredible as if we were dining there. It was. Especially the calamari which was perfect perfect perfect. I tried for the first time the bucatini and it was everything I wanted. I cannot recommend this place enough for a comfortable experience of fine dining in a beautiful setting with wonderful service.

Had dinner at L'Angeletto with a group of 8 on a Friday night while visiting some friends in the city. The main standouts of this restaurant are its great service as well as the ambiance of the restaurant. The vibe is pretty intimate but they did a great job to accommodate out big group. The food was pretty good but kind of pricey and the portion sizes were rather small (especially for the appetizers). I tried the Caesar salad and the lobster ravioli they had on their specials for the evening. I was a bit disappointed by how little actual lobster was in the ravioli but it was still tasty.Would be a date spot given the ambiance and quality of service, just a bit overpriced for what you get in terms of food in my opinion.

A nice little Italian restaurant that makes you feel like family! Made a reservation here for Thursday night for my party of 4. It was the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a nice meal and catch up over many years. Service was also great - waiter was attentive without being overbearing and the chef came out at the end of our meal to ask us what we thought and offer complimentary homemade limoncello shots!Appetizers: Ordered the calamari, bruschetta and beef carpaccio. Calamari was the standout - very tender and the sauce was amazing. Others were enjoyable but pretty standard. Entrees: Fettucini with Lamb Ragout and Rigatoni alla Carbonara were both delicious! Portions were perfect and the pasta was very fresh.

Great place. Food was delicious and staff was very nice. We went for lunch, it was not crowded.

My friend and I went in for dinner after a couple drinks at Paddy Mcguires. It was such a good find! The server we had was so sweet and funny and made our meal more enjoyable. The inside is cute and had holiday decorations up, enhancing the ambiance. The food was DEEEEEELISH. My cacio e Pepe was absolutely melt in your mouth tasty. I can't wait to go back and order it again. Portions were on the smaller side, but that was great because we had room for dessert! We ordered the chocolate soufflé. Which was also small, but perfect for a couple bites for the two of us. We ended our night with complimentary limoncello and plans to go back again!

IG: @mrtravelfoodieRating: 6.7/10Service: The staff was attentive especially since there weren't many people dining in the restaurant. However, I will say that I felt like there was a bit of attitude from the staff towards me the whole time I was there. I asked for cheese and black pepper on my pasta because that's how I enjoy my food and he was like "try it without first". I understand if this was an omakase or some incredibly fancy meal, but this was just a normal pasta spot.Ambience: Feels casual but had the standard Italian restaurant decor so nothing special. Was nice that the space wasn't super busy and that you could have conversation. I would say it's a good date spot or just a nice casual dining choice.Food: ordered the bruschetta and fettuccine with lamb ragout. The bruschetta was just ok, nothing spectacular to make me want it again. The fettuccine was pretty good. I wouldn't say it was mind blowing good, but it was tasty and I would come back and order it again.Overall, it's a decent spot to go if you're in the neighborhood but I would not go out of my way to eat here.

Very gracious staff who are extremely friendly, attentive, and make you feel like family.We started with burrata, shared the bucatini all'amatriciana and lobster ravioli (special of the day), and finished it off with tiramisu. When our waiter saw us sharing our entrees by swapping dishes, he supplied us with plates so we could eat family style. He said if we had mentioned, he would have split the entrees between two dishes, which was extremely thoughtful of him.The burrata and the bed of prosciutto it was on was yummy, pastas were pretty tasty, and the tiramisu was delicious. The meal came with complimentary bread with olive oil + balsamic vinegar to dip, as well as shots of limoncello to finish, and these babies were STRONG.

Repost from Google Reviews: Absolutely horrible service. We had a reservation for 8. We waited over 30 minutes for a table and barely anyone talked to us. Three groups behind us left because it was taking too long. One group of 2 in front of us got seated but the table was missing a chair and it took 10 minutes before they were seated at a new table with 2 chairs. They finally started putting a table of 8 together and a group behind us (with a reservation 20 minutes after ours) rushed the table and sat down first. The staff did NOTHING when we complained. We left and had to find a place nearby that could seat 8. Truly felt disrespected by the staff. It's such a poorly run restaurant.Also, the entire time we were there, we didn't see a single table get served any food.

The spinach and ricotta ravioli filling seemed watery, and the beurre blanc or whatever sauce was excessive for the portion of ravioli. We somehow kinda had two servers but who were somehow less attentive than the busser giving water. It's a cute place, small but doesn't feel cramped. LI'd give it another go just to see if it was a fluke, but only if I'm already in the area.
