This Midtown West pizza joint serves traditional crispy-crusted pies and pasta dishes, with two other Midtown locations.

ambiance
66.66999816894531% positive
  1. which totally turned me off to the food and made me focus on the rather horrible ambience this place has to offer now.
  2. The food, service, atmosphere, one of my best experiences in a pizzeria.
  3. Although the location is convenient to some hotels it is somewhat out of the way for other things you may be doing, and the ambiance is nothing to write home about.

  1. Its quite expensive at $16+ per pie, but its certainly different from other places and I often regret getting pizza anywhere else.
  2. One pie is good for 2 people if you're hungry, if not, then 3 people will devour the 6 thin slices quickly.

  1. This place also has a full bar, unlike most of the pizza places in NYC.

  1. Angelo's is a far cry in both service and quality from some of the city's great pizza spots (i.e. - Lombardi's).
  2. If you like thin crust pizza, this is it.
  3. Pretty busy, but a great place for good pizza.
  4. This place also has a full bar, unlike most of the pizza places in NYC.
  5. highly recommend a thincrust pizza with proscuitto, sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms and onions.
  6. The food was great, we had a salad and a small cheese pizza.
  7. The pepperoni pizza, caesar salad, and bread are all delicious @ Angelos!
  8. Our server Nenad was very helpful and friendly and suggested the best meal i have had in a long time.
  9. As a New Yorker, we're trained to like pizza; all sorts of different pizza.
  10. First of all I did enjoy this pizza the few times that I have been here, but I am NEVER going back.
  11. Excellent - Fried Zucchini & Eggplant with Garlic Yogurt Dipping, Penne Alla Vodka (perfect - al dente and good sauce), Linguine Del Pescatore.
  12. Fresh, tasty toppings make this a winner.
  13. Thin crispy crust, not to saucy, they use kalamata or Italian olives & other fresh authentic ingredients.
  14. The food was definitely excellent.
  15. the ingredients are so fresh!
  16. Good food at affordable prices
  17. They brought us rolls before the meal which were good, and the "coal oven" pizza was some of the best thin crust I've ever had.
  18. The crust is wonderfully crisp and tasty, the sauce is zesty but not overspiced, and the cheese and toppings are as fresh and mouth-watering as any I've had.
  19. The bread we got before we recieved our food was awesome!
  20. thought Angelos was good until I had the pizza at Serafina.
  21. The food, service, atmosphere, one of my best experiences in a pizzeria.
  22. IThis pizza is more the traditional European style with a very thin crispy crust and fresh mozzarella as opposed to the shredded American kind.
  23. Its quite expensive at $16+ per pie, but its certainly different from other places and I often regret getting pizza anywhere else.
  24. would definently recommend this to people who enjoy thin crust pizzas!
  25. which totally turned me off to the food and made me focus on the rather horrible ambience this place has to offer now.
  26. The pizza was very good This is the kind of place you come in w/ some friends (or alone) and end up staying for hours w/o realizing.
  27. For thin crust, coal oven pizza Angelo's is great.
  28. The brick oven pizza is the best we've ever eaten and the salads are large enough for two (and equally as good).

Tasty sauce, oddly thick crust

by connaisseuse

When I think of a coal oven pie I want a good tasty thin crust. This was practically deep dish, just baked in a coal oven. The sauce was really tasty, and I liked the texture of the mozz and the flavor of the basil, but it's not traditional Italian brick/coal oven. It's more like a gourmet version of a Domino's pizza -- good if you're in the mood for thick squishy crust, but not if you're looking for classic thin crust coal oven.

EXTREMLY RUDE HOSTESS AND SAD LOOKING WAIT STAFF

by NiceJewishGirl83

First of all I did enjoy this pizza the few times that I have been here, but I am NEVER going back. Last night I arrived as a party of three. The hostess offered us a table, but we asked if we could sit at a the table across. She let us know in her VERY BAD ENGLISH by letting us know that it was a table for five by saying 'five' ... 'five people'. So we sat where we were shown. After we had started ordering and our plates came, there was a large group who came in who had some children and strollers. The hostess was gone so the manager had to direct them upstairs. The hostess then returned, and when one of the fathers or men in the group asked about his folded up stroller she stuck up her nose and shrugged her shoulders (literally) when he was clearly pointing out that it was an extreme inconvience to bring the stroller upstairs. I was soo irritated!!

Ever time I eat here, the wait staff is very sad looking and shows no energy or even a smile while on the job. You can always find them upstairs near the bathrrom/bar area sitting around also. (and by the way, the bathrooms were DISGUSTING!!! last night). So while enjoying my dinner the music that was on which was a little loud, and was playing RAP MUSIC... which totally turned me off to the food and made me focus on the rather horrible ambience this place has to offer now. What manager/owner would let rap music play in a little more than casual pizza restaurant???? So when I left, the hostess magically dissapeared and I asked one of the waiters what the hostess' name was. He would not give me to me and told me I had to talk to the manager. I didn't really want to wait around to talk to the manager, so I left. So please if you want to eat here, I suggest you order over the phone or not at all. You wont have to deal with a snotty hostess and sad-looking wait staff. Oh, and to top everything off, there was a mosquito flying around me, when no windows were open... nice....

  • Pros: Good food
  • Cons: Horrible ambience, Horrible stafff

Changed to Serafina after Angelos stood me up on delivery - not a phone call - not an apology

by rg212

Pizza is only good if it gets to you and Angelos has just lost me forever! 45 minutes after ordering for delivery, I called to chase the order because it hadn't arrived. The girl told me they hadn't put it into the kitchen yet, and frankly, she could not have cared less. Business must be pretty good not to care about service.

So I canceled the order and tried Serafina at 55th and Broadway.

Oh my God, I'm never going back to Angelos. I found pizza heaven. I thought Angelos was good until I had the pizza at Serafina. And since they are new, they are much nicer to the customer.

Freshest pizza, best in Midtown

by dieselpr

You can taste the freshness of the ingredients used to make the pizzas in this Midtown restaurant. Although the location is convenient to some hotels it is somewhat out of the way for other things you may be doing, and the ambiance is nothing to write home about. I must stress however that the pizza sauce is better than Lombardi's, and arguably the crust might be too. Taste them both and decide for yourself.

  • Pros: Pizza
  • Cons: Location, no refills on soda
