Angelina's Pizzeria Napoletana

Higher end Italian place in Irvine, there was ample seating inside and outside during the weekday lunch hour when we dined there. Lots of Italian offerings on the menu from pizza to pasta dishes to salads, they also have extensive alcohol options. We ordered a pizza, a calzone, and a shrimp salad, ever was a good/large portion size and quite delicious. The atmosphere is excellent here and some very nice outdoor seating is available as well. Staff were very friendly and professional, if anything I felt underdressed for the establishment. My only real concern here was the high prices, expect to spend quite a bit when dining at Angelina's.

I recently visited Angelina’s Pizzeria in Irvine and had an excellent meal that reminded me why this place has such a loyal following. We started with two appetizers that completely set the tone for the night: the calamari and the lamb chops. The calamari was outstanding perfectly crispy on the outside without being greasy, and tender on the inside. It had a light, well-seasoned batter that let the freshness of the seafood shine through. Too often calamari can be rubbery or overly heavy, but this was cooked just right and easily one of the better versions I’ve had. The lamb chops appetizer was equally impressive.

Overall experience was not good. Probably the first time I’m compelled to give a review like this. We ordered 3 things. One was good. Two were okay. The service was not good. The lady who served us probably had a bad day. I literally would get up walk to them to ask for things. They barely wanted to educate us on the menu. Recommendations were off, the pricing was further off because of the recommendations. We were charged like $16 for a substitution. We were excited since this was in our neighborhood but I don’t think we will be motivated to go there again. The price and the overall experience did not make sense.

My first visit to this incredible place. I was impressed with the amazingly delicious flavors they offer on there food plates. Especially the spaghetti and meatballs so full of natural flavors. Definitely I will return many times there menu is a large one.

Waited a bit to get a server but he ended up being great. Pizzas are delicious and bigger than expected for individual size
