"We had a FABULOUS first dinner this past January at Angelina's! We decided to go here as it's always consistently recommended in some of the York County food groups we follow. We haven’t had the chance to make it there during all our times in town until this visit and all I can say is wow! The food was incredible from the calamari to the veal and lobster-your-way specials to ending the evening with a slice of their perfectly sweet wedding cake! Which was totally fitting as we were there to celebrate our first wedding anniversary! We sat at the bar, Evan was very personable and gave us great recommendations and an inviting atmosphere. I also love a good dirty martini and the David’s Ultimate didn’t disappoint! The line of people out the door waiting to get a table as we walked out that night on an evening in January when town was dead should be an indicator to how popular and good this spot truly is! Thanks to the Angelina’s team for a great evening out helping us celebrate. We’ll be back!"

"Wish I could have given this place a better rating. Our server, Logan, was great. We had the eggplant tower, which was good but needed more mozzarella and the tomatoes, IMO, should be roasted. Entrees were the Veal and mushroom risotto, I enjoyed this very much. My hubs had the chicken Florentine. The chicken. Was very tough and the sauce didn't have much flavor. For dessert we had the lemon Italian cake. Definitely by far, the best part of our meal!!!! It was scrumptious!!!!
One thing I will say is that in 2025, no restaurants should have carpet. Also IMO"

"Overall good experience. Our service was friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant is accommodating and allows substitutions in your menu choice if necessary. The complimentary bread isnt anything spectacular but still appreciated. We ordered the cesar salad and although the ingredients seemed fresh it lacked flavor and dressing! Our main entrees however came excellent and tasted delicious. The flourless cake is a must try, however their cannoli is probably the worst I've ever had. It's like they took straight Ricotta and put it into the shell. Avoid that and you're set to go"
