I made a reservation at Angelo's because my family often orders from here and enjoys the pizzas, pasta, and meatballs. I had guests coming in for the holiday season to look at the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center this past Saturday. We got a table to seat 7 of us, including 2 young children. We arrived a little earlier than our reservation and even though they were swamped, they still managed to accommodate us without much of a wait. The staff works very quickly and efficiently. We ordered the Family size of Linguini Alla Vongole and Fettuccini Alfredo with Chicken. We also ordered a large Margharita Pie, a small Pepperoni Pie, a small Plain Pie, and a Calzone. The food came out timely and was delicious and satisfying. Service was good, even though it was quite busy there. The adults and kids were happy, everyone was full and there was still some leftover food to take home. I would surely bring guests there again.
