Angelos. I went back again last week. You have to search far and wide to get better za in C-town area. I have been going here since I worked next door at Lucas auto as a Junior at St. Eds when Angelos was a small take out in the attached building.
Never did a shift go by without a meatball sub or Sausage, onion and pepper ring za. I only mention that history because although they have moved a few doors down into the old hardware store, the food is just as good as it ever was.
The location on Madison has a small number of seats and a great people watching front outdoor patio in the summer. They have beer and wine and for those in the area they will deliver beer with your pizza late into the evening. This was always an appreciated feature when I lived in Lakewood.
The aforementioned meatball sub is a great combination of perfectly spiced broiled meatballs with sweet (but not overly) marinara covered with melted cheese all tucked into an Orlando sub roll. A simply but wonderful treat which I still crave.
The pizza must be ordered as the "deep dish", no exceptions. I have taken many people there for the first time and make sure to watch them taste the first bite. Always amazed that they never had Angelos before. The "deep dish" has a wonderful crispy buttery bottom crust that at first glance seems very curious. One bite and its over. Truly a unique taste and texture yet always delicious.
Favorite toppings are meatball- try it they are not as greasy as sausage, onion- always fresh tasting with slight crunch and pepper rings. They sell so much Za here everything is fresh always.
My kids will eat a lot of places pizza but I only eat at 3 places and this is tops on the list.
Search this place out and if doing take out order ahead or you will wait the 20 minutes at the small bar area.
