Angelo's has a reputation as having some of the best pizza in Cleveland so I was excited to try it especially on a Monday night when the pizza is half priced. Finding parking near Angelo's can be very difficult, especially on Monday, luckily I went over to the next side street and found a spot.
Angelo's has a fairly small dining room that is broken up a bit, with a bar area near the kitchen. The decor is warm and appropriate for this type of pizzeria. Getting in can be difficult, but I managed to get a seat at the corner of the bar.
I ordered a Large deep dish pizza with the garlic shrimp, which came out after about 20 minutes, not too bad on a busy night. The pizza is nice sized, certainly not huge, with a good sauce and a nice amount of cheese. The shrimp were nicely cooked and juicy, although I really did not get any garlic flavor; the portion of shrimp was very generous. Where the pizza let me down was on the crust, which I found to be softer then I would prefer, I would describe it as almost pillowy, I like my pizza to be more chewy.
Overall the service was good and very friendly, but there were a couple of misses, 1st it took quite a while for me to get my check after I had finished and had my extra pizza packed up, 2nd when the bill came they had not discounted the pizza, which they quickly corrected when I pointed that out.
Angelo's is certainly very popular and with good reason, it is worth giving a try especially if you like a soft crust to your pizza.
