Angelinas Restaurant - Staten Island (NY)

5 /5 Irene Conwell: The food and menu are exceptional as are the wait staff and Angelina herself. A few of us gathered for a grammar school reunion (62 years after graduation) and we all loved it. I found everyone kind and considerate and very accommodating. Sitting at the bar, something I don’t care to do, waiting for my friends the Maitre D approached me and asked if I’d be more comfortable sitting at a high top table. I definitely was! We chatted until a friend came in. When our fellow classmates arrived we were led to a table and our server , Ita I believe she said her name was, was very accommodating and helpful. The food was fantastic, definitely not your run of the mill Italian food. It is an inspired menu. I had a saffron risotto with squid ink breadcrumbs and langoustines. It’s was perfectly cooked and unbelievable. During our dinner Angelina came over to our table introducing herself and asking our names than shaking our hands. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to eating there again.

5 /5 Julia Lapina: A truly unique place to celebrate—whether it’s a big gathering or an intimate dinner. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with live music adding a special touch. Service is friendly and attentive, the seafood is fresh, and the wine selection is excellent. Refreshing, perfectly chilled drinks make every visit a pleasure. Always an amazing experience!

5 /5 Jimmy Lubrano: Celebrated my daughter‘s engagement, Food was amazing. Service was phenomenal. Made our special day even more amazing thank you!!!!

5 /5 JAMES MURPHY: I just had a last minute Holiday party at Angelinas and it was fantastic ! The room on the 2nd floor was set up beautifully, from the table setting and the stunning views.Felix the manager made everything a breeze , any request was handled flawlessly. Our server Ida was beyond fantastic. You never needed to ask for anything, I think she may be a mind reader. The rest of the staff , Paul our bartender, Christina and Joe were all part of making our evening perfect. The food as always was delicious.

2 /5 P Michelle (Michelle P.): I recently hosted my daughter’s bat mitzvah at Angelina’s with about 150 guests. The planning process with Brandi was smooth, and the venue itself is beautiful. The decorators and musicians we hired were fantastic and really made the night beautiful. I especially want to thank Felix, the manager, he was incredibly helpful and handled issues quickly the night of the event. That said, there were several problems that really took away from the experience. The biggest issue was the food. We added sushi at $135 per platter and were promised it would be a large platter for each table with more than enough to feed the table. It was a small plate of basic rolls ( about 5 or 6 rolls) that couldn’t feed a table of 10–14. I complained immediately and they brought out more, but it shouldn’t have happened in the first place and there should have been a larger variety of sushi. I also heard from multiple guests that the kids were starving and ended up going to adult tables to eat. Apparently the kids were served last, only once the hot food came out—several hours after the event started. My daughter told me they were asking the waiters for bread constantly because they were so hungry. We had over 45 kids, so this was disappointing. The food overall was a hit or miss, but the family style portions were definitely not big enough for the table and we had to ask for more frequently. Some guests also sent me pictures of fruit that wasn’t fresh. There were other small but frustrating issues: some kids’ tables didn’t have the correct number of seats, so we were scrambling to rearrange chairs, and the waitstaff kept dropping plates and bottles throughout the night. After the event, I called about picking up the remains of our $600 cake, only to find out it had already been thrown out—no call, no heads-up, nothing. I did reach out afterward to share my feedback and was told management would call me back, but I never heard back. Angelina’s is a beautiful venue but the food problems and multiple oversights fell short of what I expected for such an important and expensive event. I hope they take this feedback seriously for future clients.
