My husband and I just moved to Tampa from Dallas TX and decided to give Angelina's a try, simply b/c Olive Garden and Macaroni Grill had waits out the door and let me tell you what a mistake this decision was! I would have rather waited 2 hours somewhere else than waste my time and money at this shack. From... more

On our most recent visit to Angelina's, the food was (for the most part) quite ordinary with one exception. The exception was shoe-leather tough veal. But the real downer was the manager's cavalier attitude toward the problem -- no adjustment, no apologies, not even a visit to the table. In fact, the waitress implied that we were wrong and there... more

To be fair the food was ok, but it is way over priced. I have always been amused seeing the owners Escalade parked by the front door. I always thought the best spaces were for your customers... I was further amazed by the addition of a 20% gratuity for our party of five. Service was good but I resent being... more

For many many years, this was the best kept secret in the area for absolutely great hard core Southern Italian Cuisine. I can say this being Italian myself. Unfortunately, this place has changed owners twice in the last 4 or 5 years. Gone are the lines around the corner every night to get a seat, and for good reason. Service... more

I have passed by this restaurant a few times over the past few months and yesterday, October 17, 2007, thought it was time to give it a try. WHAT A MISTAKE! I went in with a guest to have dinner at around 7 PM and the restaurant had 5 tables of people. We stood in the doorway for a minute... more

I live in NJ. While on vacation in Florida my nephew suggested Angelina's Gourmet Italian restaurant. He had eaten here and liked it. We went there for lunch on July 31st. It took 3 tries before the salad that came with the meal had no wilted lettuce in it. My brother-in-law ordered the fish which was stuffed with crab and... more

What was once the best Italian food in Brandon, perhaps in all of greater Tampa, has become mediocre at best. Once upon a time, this hole-in-the-wall was well known and highly regarded for authentic Italian cuisine and superior service. Alas, after my last experience I won't be going back. A shame, as the calamari is still the best by far... more
