This was an average dinner! Service was solid and attentive, but the food was just okay. The pimento deviled eggs were nothing special and wouldn’t order again. The short rib ravioli was also okay but on the bland side. My companion said this wasn’t their favorite cacio e Pepe either. No big complaints but nothing worth returning for.

Nice ambiance, good wine selection, outdoor patio is pleasant and it’s always nice to have a neighborhood place to walk to. Good pizza. I enjoyed the classic black and white films playing on the televisions. However, the small plates and mains that I tried on the food menu weren’t great. Last time I went I had the ribs, which were overcooked and presented in a sticky sauce with bits of Romano cheese stuck on. The chicken piccata was a nice portion size but is something I could have whipped at home with store bought pasta, some capers, and pan fried chicken breast. Probably best for drinks and apps or pizza delivery than a full dining experience.

The service was so fantastic, but the food was very mid and very expensive for the quality. The fettuccine was clearly grocery store low end pasta and some sauce from a jar and very close to $20. Also, giving low marks for the ambiance because the music was absolutely horrible I’m talking the Rick Roll song and similar ones at pretty high volume. I also do not eat meat though, so maybe the meat offerings are better and I did not try the pizza. Love a queer friendly and run location, but the menu needs work.

Very comfortable atmosphere. The bar is lit up red the lights are down low and black&white movies are playing on the big screens and yes there is music🎵 very good music too! Servers are pleasant and hospitable, the food is appetizingly great! And don't forget Dessert... The Chocolate Fudge cake... oh so chocolatey!!

The food quality has gone downhill so badly... my family and I have been in the neighborhood for many years and supported this place over the years, but at this point it feels like charity. Menu has been slashed down to nothing, and what they still do offer is bland and tasteless. Unseasoned shrimp, sauces taste like from a jar... I miss the beloved Angelo's we used to frequent.

I just moved into the neighborhood and my partner and I decided to check this place out on a whim and I am so glad we did, because i will be coming here weekly from now on! it didn’t hurt that we walked in on a wednesday, which is when they do half price bottles! 😉 I haven’t had service this good in years, and the food exceeded expectations! Gigi, the sommelier was serving us and checked in very often, recommended a great bottle for us as we aren’t typically wine drinkers, and was just so kind and cool! She really made the experience for us, but we also loved the food! We had the calamari, spring salad, and three olive pizza and loved all of it. Everything was seasoned perfectly, you can tell the chef actually tastes their own food, lol. I also thought the prices were very reasonable. All of that food and a bottle of wine came out to about $70. I can’t wait to come back and try more food. Lastly - there was a great live band playing the night we came in, and there are tons of great seating options. What a great welcome to the neighborhood 😊❤️

Perfect date night spot! Nice lighting/ambience and you could tell everyone there was having a good time. They also had old black-and-white films playing on the screens which was a cute touch. Service was great - perfect level of attention while still feeling like we could take our time. We loved the stuffed mushrooms and all the wine we drank. Entree-wise I definitely think I'll go for pizza next time around. The pasta we got was pretty good but didn't hold a candle to some other places in the city and the pizza options looked incredible. Dessert might've been the highlight - we got tiramisu and the lemon layer cake and I'm not sure I could pick a favorite.

First thing First, the food was amazing! Brunch, breakfast pizza,avocado toast, spinach caesar salad,cocktails ,beer and wine. Beautiful and cozy place. Service was impeccable ,Krista is awesome, she was very helpful with wine and food pairing, patient, friendly and a lot of fun. The best customer service I have received in a long, long time.Just everything on point! My new favorite restaurant!

I love the ambience. It's cozy and welcoming. The staff are very nice We ordered the fried calamari and Stuffed mushrooms. The fried calamari was not that good. The calamari was tiny, and all you could taste was the breading. They need to get better supply of calamari. The stuffed mushrooms were delicious! The stuffing was moist and full of flavors. Highly recommend. The Angelos pizza was great. It had a nice amount of toppings and the crust was not soggy. Overall it was a great dining experience. They have to do something about that calamari though. When I was eating them, I was saying where is the calamari! It was all breading.

Good food, snooty combative, bizarre service. Ordered online choosing option for curbside pickup. Parked next to front door. Confirmation email (ya, not a text!) said to call when I arrived. ... And then Angelo's full bizarreness went into high gear! 1st: Email did not have phone number! 2nd) Website buried phoned VERY deep in several levels of sub menus. Orders are directed to GrubHub where everything on the menu is $5 more expensive (yet they claim "no service fee)"! Phone was answered by a man who said only, " hello (not "Angelo's, how may I help you"?) After identifying my self and order Angelo's man said, "come in and get it." Me... "I asked for curbside. Angelo's... "Come in." Me... "Please bring it out, I'm parked next to the door." Angelo's... "I'm too busy" Note: restaurant has clear, floor to ceiling windows. Place was totally empty! There were no customers. One employee was casually leaning on counter next to the front door and was on cellphone, very obviously texiting. Another was behind the bar going through her purse. Me... "OK, then get some else to bring ELSE to bring it out to the car" Angelo's... "No. Come in. I'm too busy" Me... "I really want you two bring it curbside" Angelo's...angry man drops phone, bar employee goes into into kitchen and quickly brings food out to car. She, also, is a bit angry when she says she doesn't want to out my pizza in my open pizza bag. WTF ANGELO'S? GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!

Food and waitstaff are great. Cast iron skillet lasagna and short rib ravioli are reasons to go. Have never had a complaint before now. Ordered Buffalo trace. Watched bartender pour last of bottle into the jigger, then look around when bottle didn't fill measure. He then reached down and filled rest with well bourbon. Couldn't be bothered to go get a new bottle, or let me know if they couldn't fill my order. Tasted terrible. Was someone's guest so did not make a scene at the restaurant. Very disappointing.

One star off for very limited gluten free options. Service was great and the food I could have was fine. I would go back. The place is cute, but it was cold outside and it felt like a breeze was blowing on our booth. We were not near the door, so not sure why.

We were staying in walking distance and our hosts recommended. First, it was Black so Friday and so not a busy night so the staff was extra attentive which made us feel like family. It was candlelit and cozy but if super busy could see it as loud. Many TVs which are not my thing but I couldn't hear them. The Outdoor seating in nice weather looks like amazing space. GiGi the manager and sommelier was also our server for the night. We chatted several times and she made great recommendations. My husband ordered a glass of wine but I tried the wine flight and it was fun! The wines in red are on the menu are the five wines it comes with. The menu is varied in prices with less expensive sharing plates to more expensive entrees. We had the arinicni (incredible) and stuffed mushrooms (average). We shared the Angelo's pizza special (this crust) which was delicious. They had three kinds of pizza. Thin crust, traditional and Chicago deep dish. For dessert, highly recommend the tiramisu and the French press coffee was hot and strong just like I like it! Thank you GiGi and Angelos staff!

Go for the drinks, but skip the small portions of overpriced pasta. We were really excited to try Angelo's because they always seem busy. After awkwardly standing there, without anyone acknowledging us, we were finally seated. It was later on a Friday. and the staff seemed busy, so we didn't think twice about it then. It took a good amount of time before our server came. Again, it was busy so we didn't overthink it. We ordered drinks and food immediately. And got our drinks in a reasonable amount of time. Our food came out right after and I was surprised by how small the portion sizes were for the price. We ordered the carbonara with shrimp and there were 4 burnt shrimp on top. I'm surprised they let it out of the kitchen that way. Not what we were expecting considering you also had to pay $8 up charge for the shrimp. (We could have said something, but didn't want to make waves and it took awhile for our server to check on us so we decided to let it go.). The carbonara tasted more like a glorified macaroni & cheese. We also ordered the seafood fettuccine which had 3 large shrimp and 2 1/2 scallops. It was ok, but the flavor was lacking something. Service was ok. Ambiance was nice but it was very loud with all the people. I think the experience wouldn't have been so bad if the prices didn't reflect a higher expectation.

Phenomenal food. I highly recommend the lasagna as well as the burrata salad. Both were amazing!

We were in our way to a jam night and I needed to find some fun drinks and food. There is not much around those parts but we were so lucky to have found Angelo's Wine bar! We walked in to a fantastic trio playing amazing rock and ballads and were welcomed by the hostess and bartender. We sat at the bar and ordered the burrata pizza, cheese board and I had the most delicious wild strawberry skinny Margarita. I will order that again and again. It was not only delicious but no bad ingredients - hot tip: they make all their margs skinny! Highly recommend it. Will return. Yeay!

Love the wine selection, it's our neighborhood spot to go. Great food, good dessert. Glad they are pretty kid friendly and considerate- we don't even have kids but I love suggesting it for our friends that do.

DELICIOUS! Absolutely terrifically delicious! We stumbled upon this place after a few reviews from a good friend and man am I disappointed that we didn't come sooner. There is a wide variety of food options on the menu so you can make it as cheap or as expensive as you'd like. But let me tell you, the flavors are incomparable. I'm not a huge lover of Arancini but I find myself craving them plus the terrific sauce served with it. Highly recommend getting that plus the burrata caprese. I ordered the chicken alfredo which was the creamy american goodness that I was craving. Husband ordered a delicious carbonara. This will be a staple date night spot for us moving forward. Great service and food!

Yelp
Rounded up to 3 stars. Mediocre and overpriced Italian food. I can't even say the ambiance is nice because it's usually so loud...I'd recommend only coming here for a drink or two. I was so excited to try their stuffed mushrooms but they paled in comparison to the Salmon cakes. The fettuccine was just average. It only had two broccoli stalks but a decent amount of chicken. Focaccia bread had marinara and cheese...would have preferred it straight up. Cesar salad is kind of sad. Mac n' cheese was okay. Burrata caprese is one of the only dishes I liked.

Arthur R.

Yelp
The food was edible. Did not have enough servers. Had to go to bar and get my own drinks. The worst was the establishments failure to considers my group and other patrons ability to enjoy are self's. There was a party of 20 or so that was so loud, we could not carry on a conversation. I like having fun, but this 20+ group was obnoxious. The management made no attempt to ask them to be considerate of others trying to eat and converse. Just terrible. Will not be returning.

Best pizza on the north side of Chicago. My girlfriend and I tried this when we first moved to Albany Park, now it's our go-to spot. Great food, reasonably priced and Wednesday is half price bottles of wine night. And Gigi the sommelier is a gem.

Stephan C.

Yelp
I'm satisfied. Food was great and good portion not too much. Excellent wine list and service even better. Really friendly and intuitive services. Really tasty anchovies Caesar salad. I like prosciutto and whipped ricotta bruschetta a lots. Frutti di mare and seared sea scallops good sa well. Frutti di mare nice and spicy but I just prefer with fresh seafood instead of fried light batter. I going to try brunch here and Wednesday half price on every bottle of wine.

Came here on a busy Friday night and recommend making reservations because it is busy all the time! We got sat 10-15 mins after our reservation time. Gigi was our wonderful server who was super informative and thorough. She ordered our drinks and food very quickly. I had my chicken Alfredo and it was insanely good! We also loved the tiramisu - highly recommend!

Food and drinks were good! only gave it 3 stars and it had the potential for 5, but the woman who was working at the bar on March 2nd at 8pm just didn't seem friendly. No smile, face looks like she wanted my friend and I to hurry and make up our minds on what we wanted and would rather not be at work.

Absolutely delicious and prices are very reasonable! Great salads, pizza, and everything on the menu is very tasty. Also very clean and tidy. One of my pet peeves is an eatery that is filthy dirty.

Visited Angelo's Wine bar for the first time tonight. The restaurant has the feel of a fine dining restaurant crossed with a neighborhood spot. The service was fast and friendly. We started with the arancini which was pretty good but a little bland. The sauce under the arancini was very tasty. My wife also got the Mediterranean salad and said it was delicious. We got the cacio e Pepe and the pappardelle with Bolognese. I really enjoyed both but my wife thought the Bolognese was a bit sweet for her taste. It was my first time having cacio e pepe and I thought it was quite delicious. We will definitely be back.

Ambience great.. food very good.. service meh. We sat at the bar. There was a female and a male bartender who never checked on us at all. Too bad because otherwise this is a great place.

Angelo's is a great neighborhood place. Warm and cozy atmosphere. I like your sit outside in good weather but it's a great place inside when it's cold. The staff is friendly. The drinks are delicious, my favorite is the Speziato. Sooo good! Every meal I've had here is really good. No parking but usually not too hard on the street. Sometimes they have live music which is nice.

Colleen J.

Yelp
Great food and wine. Very comfortable restaurant with good food. I had sausage and peppers - it was delicious. Hubs had spaghetti and meatballs. Calamari was outstanding! I had Alice Waters coconut cake and hubs had lemon tart. We had a large group. Service was ok, not speedy.

Deanna S.

Appreciate when they have live jazz! Enjoyable to have dinner, drinks, and very talented musicians! Food is good with plenty of options and service is fast. The live music is what appeals most to me though and would want to return on these evening when available.

Gabriella C.

Yelp
Pretty disappointed with my overall experience here. This is my second time here since 2020, and the service was just as slow and horrible as 3 years ago. The place was not packed, however it took over 20 minutes for anyone to approach our table and/or provide water. We got calamari as an appetizer - probably some of the worst I've had. It was 90% fried bread crumbs and 10% actual calamari. The slow service was almost unbearable, with my elderly father actually suggesting that I post this review. The burger & fries were mediocre at best. The fries were room temperature & soggy. The pizza was also very soggy and barely warm, telling me that our food had been waiting for way too long. My elderly father ordered his meat to be medium well and his meat came out PINK. We wanted to support a local business and it backfired horribly, resulting in a 2+ hour unsatisfactory dinner for just 3 people. Please do better. Such a disappointment.

Ashley K.

Yelp
A menu with integrity. Food is delicious and the options are fantastic. Extensive wine list, glasses and bottles. Wednesday they have 1/2 off bottles and live jazz. An aesthetically pleasing, open air room...perfect for summer nights. Service is attentive and hospitable, we were lucky enough to have the attention of sommelier Gigi. Will be back again!

Christina H.

Yelp
Hostess spent more time on other peoples dog than she did ok us. Waiting over a hour for our food and didn't get it until we complained. Other people who came in later than us got their food before us which confused me. They didn't seem super apologetic and tried to make it seem like we were waiting super long. At the end, we got our food for free but I won't be coming back which is such a shame. Please improve your customer service if you want to stay in business.

Jen L.

Yelp
Their wine is wonderful, their service is great as well. The ambiance is very enjoyable. We came in at 5:00 which is very early but we hadn't planned in advance so we thought we'd try it out. We didn't know that's the exact time all families with young kids go out. Which was fine but it was like pre-tornado and post-tornado, which was kinda funny. Their food is very good, I had the eggplant and my partner had the lamb shank. Both were good. Although I felt the eggplant could have used a little more sauce. We had the cannoli for dessert which is one single cannoli, it was not crispy and had no pistachios on it, so that kinda disappointed us. We live in the area and most likely we'll probably come back in the summer and enjoy more wine and appetizers.

Annie G.

Yelp
My good friend lives local to Angelos and we both love trying nice new places. Though Angelos is a neighborhood staple, I had never been there. Our waitress and sommelier Gigi was very polite and attentive. She offered their suggestions but we didn't want to do family style and ordered our separate dishes but shared the goat cheese bruschetta. Though there wasn't much goat cheese, it was absolutely delicious. Probably the best I've ever had. I had my heart set on the pasta carbonara but when I saw the restaurant has a fresh made fried chicken and macaroni dish I caved and got that instead. The chicken was delicious and well seasoned, the homemade Coleslaw was great, but the Mac and cheese was completely bland and devoid of flavor. I kind of regret not ordering the pasta. Maybe next time! My dining companion ordered the meatballs and he enjoyed them. Prior to getting the bill I had some pleasant drinks and ordered my husband a pizza to go, with the advance warning the pizzas take 30 mins. When Gigi the waitress told us it was last call, I realized why Gigi had an annoyed look on her face as to why we ordered a pizza so close to closing. We had no idea they closed that early, being that we had a late reservation! Overall, it was a good experience. I'll definitely be back. My pizza loving hubby gave the pizza an 8/10 And I liked it too.

Lisa W.

Yelp
Absolutely horrible food! I was disgusted with everything from the sausage and peppers, which was a soupy mess of thin sausage and potato in a red sauce that had mostly onion and no pepper. The ignorant bartender told me I was getting my money's worth. Huge mistake. He spoke about our complaints to other bar patrons who got very territorial. I felt out of place because of mean searing from those the bartender spoke to about us. I will never ever go there again.

Autumn B.

Yelp
This place is sooooo yummy, and the service was great. There were 7 of us moms from our children's school. Our server patiently walked us through menu options while we waned back and forth. Also, the drink menu is full of beautiful-sounding drinks. I had two of a spicy margarita-ish drink, I couldn't just have one. We've already planned another gathering here in May. Can't wait!

Kasey R.

Yelp
This is one of our go-to places and I'm so happy to have it in the neighborhood! It's been nice for getting more upscale food delivered. I also really enjoy going in for the ambiance. There is a massive bar in the middle; warm, rustic timber; cozy tables and huge, front windows that fold open on a beautiful day. They usually have old movies playing silently on the TVs. I've found all the waitstaff and bartenders to be friendly, professional and attentive. Some items on the menu are a miss, but several are quite good. We enjoy the three different kinds of calamari, the burrata pizza, the cauliflower and the fig & prosciutto pizza. We've brought our kids in for an early dinner but there's no kids menu and it's definitely more suited to adults and date nights. I definitely recommend checking out Angelo's!

Gerry T.

Yelp
Totally surprised by this experience, this restaurant has a River North or West Loop feel. Friendly greeting and beautifully laid out restaurant, I was also amazed by the 70s and 80s music, coupled with classic Black and While films on all of the flat screens. As for the food, the generous portions will make you lament your calorie counting or futile workouts. The servings are that big and the food is great!! The calamari pieces were so satisfying, I would recommend serving the giardiniera on the side - for maximum crispness. The cheesey fundido with sausage was incredible!! You'll be tempted to BYOB (bring your own baguette), it's that good. My skillet was really full of meat and the star of the show was really the pizza - the sweet (fig), cheese, prosciutto (salty) and arugula (peppery) on top of that crispy cracker crust made it an instant favorite of mine. And yes, I ate the 1,500 calorie beignets in one fell swoop. I see that they also have an outdoor seating area - hope to be back soon.

I went here last week to hear some jazz. This place has ambience and nice decor.Chill, friendly vibe. We sat at the bar and the bartender was really cool. Axel, thank you for tolerating our drunk selves. You rock! People watching is fun for sure. We ordered a carafe of wine and a fig, goat cheese pizza which was delicious. I also got the froze which was strong and delish and my friend got some elderflower drink and a lime type drink. We had a fun time and are definitely going back.

Marley V.

Yelp
Angelos used to be one of my favorite places in Chicago. Over the last two years the service has gone way down. We came in there without a reservation after open table told us they have availability for 4 all night long. Get there and the host is so rude telling me I need to make a reservation and informing how the restaurant works. I told him I've been there many times and never had a problem. He sits us down at a four top and then comes back and tells us that he sat us somewhere there was a reservation and asked if we could all sit at a two top. We left. Usually the food is good but the last two times I've been there the carbonara is watery. I hope they work things out because it used to be such a great place.

The ambience is warm and welcoming and the food is pleasing ... tried the stuffed mushrooms and shrimp & polenta ... the shrimp was slightly salty but the overall dish was comforting and delicious ... would definitely order again !!

Melissa S.

Yelp
I've been here a number of times and always had a good experience. The most cool and unique thing about this place is that they constantly play a variety of random black and white movies on a row of televisions in the main dining area. There's a nice wraparound bar with other TVs that show sports games and stuff. When it's nice out, there's also a very nice outdoor patio. The food is very good here, especially the pizzas. I love that they have so many different wines to choose from, most of which are good. Service is always good and the bartenders are cool. It's a really nice spot in Albany Park, which could use more places like this.

This restaurant is on my block, after living here 5 months we finally made our way over for dinner. They didn't disappoint, beautiful menu, excellent food and service.

Jon Z.

Yelp
Have been wanting to come to this place for a while as my mom lives down the block. I like the set up and ambiance and they have a really nice patio, but that was really about it. Wines are overpriced and small pours Pizzas were ok at best. We got the Fig and Prosciutto pizza - the prosciutto was sliced very incorrectly (very thick) and tasted old. We also got the sausage pizza which was fine (the sausage itself was excellent). They are just meh pizzas especially considering the cost and size. Calamari just was not good. Either old, frozen, overcooked or all three. Now could we have spoken up? Sure. We were with my mom and 20 month old son, so not always worth it. Just trying to enjoy each others company. Service was fine. They were attentive. I guess i just expected a bit more from a place that has been open since 1962.

Came here for Valentine's Day dinner and was BLOWN AWAY by the braised lamb shank. Definitely a must try. Service was great and felt very comfortable as a queer couple on Valentine's Day. The wine/cocktails were quite good too, as expected.

Yelp
Great night out with my wife at bar seats! Great Old Fashioned's then a flavorful flatbread with Italian Sausage, fresh mozzarella. Ordered a great bottle of red: Daus Quintas Ramos Pinto 2017. Heard great things about the Drunken Bucatini however I didn't love it! It was good but not great. Overall it was 5 Star with great service, menu, drinks and food. Loves the open windows and atmosphere and a gem being in our neighborhood!

Rebekah S.

Yelp
Birthday dinner selection and it exceeded expectations. Anything with "wine" in it I'm apt to try. This truly was a wine bar, I could choose a flight of my own! Pizza, sausage dish were great and the kids meals were good value for our girls. It was hoppin' on a Monday of that gives you an indication of popularity and I believe we saw live music setting up too. Loved and will be back!

Yelp
I dig the place. Good ambiance. Staff was friendly. The food was pretty good. I liked the pizza, and all of the apps that we ordered. The entrees could have been better, particularly for the price. The portions were very small. We ordered the scallops which were tiny. The seafood pasta was just ok. Small portion and the linguini was from a box. Idk. The food just needs some work, particularly the expensive entrees. Seriously, go eat at other restaurants and reassess. They say that they hope that everyone will share dishes, but that sort of seems like they are saying that to cover up the small portions. None of the dishes we tried were an appropriate size to share. A little bizarre. Overall, I still dig the place.

Angelo's is a classic neighborhood bar and restaurant. I met a friend for Friday happy hour and arrived around 4:30pm to a mostly empty venue. One hour later the place was packed and the large bar fully occupied. Many at the bar opted to drink and eat, and I enjoyed a couple whiskey cocktails, charcuterie with grilled bread, and crispy spicy/sweet calamari. The bartenders did a great job given how busy it was.

Had a great take out dinner from angelos. Everything was perfect. I got a simple grilled chicken sandwich and it was amazing how much flavor they could pack into what I thought would be just a basic grilled price of chicken. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for some good food to go.

Went for breakfast this Saturday. We practically opened the place. There's only 2 of us and we wanted to seat by the window. The staff said that we can't sit there as it was reserved. We came at 11:30am and left an hour later, the group never came. It is hateful to see people lie and I don't understand why they don't want to seat customers where they want to sit especially if there is no one else in the place. As for the food, we had avocado toast: the brioche was thick, light and fluffy - though it should have been warm. And I don't care for several slices of fresh jalapeños on my breakfast Avocado Toast. Amount of shrimp is great but I would lay on the avocado spread ticker. This place is still a dud to me.

We'd been meaning to try this place ever since we moved to the neighborhood and finally went last night for my wife's birthday. In short, the food was excellent (stuffed mushrooms, risotto, short rib, and scallops) but service was lacking. It started out very promising. We were served by Gigi, the sommelier, who did a great job of walking us through the menu and gave us an excellent wine recommendation. They were also great about getting our son's food out in a hurry before he got too cranky. After all our food hit the table, our service just kind of vanished. We heard someone mention being short-staffed, but we watched Gigi spending quite a bit of time just chatting with a couple of the high-top tables near the bar and ignoring us. We spent the final 20 minutes of our stay with empty wine and water glasses and would have gotten some dessert (again, it was my wife's birthday) if anyone had bothered to check on us, but by the time Gigi showed up again we just got the check and went home. We live just down the street, so I really want to like this place and maybe we'll give it another shot, but this was a disappointing first visit.
