Angelo's Pizza

Moving reviews over from Yelp. This was originally published 5/11/18: It's been years since the last time I ate here but I found myself in Mattoon with over an hour to kill and an empty stomach. This is a relatively unassuming place in a relatively backwater town in eastern Illinois. Not really somewhere you wind up accidentally even though they are the home of Lender's Bagels. I ordered an 8" stuffed pizza with no intention of finishing it. I did make it through 3 of the 4 slices before giving up but that's really just because I had a meeting to attend followed by a 2.5 hours drive. Notes on the pie: They use a relatively under-seasoned tomato sauce that will appeal to the masses but requires the addition of garlic powder and red pepper flakes to suit my taste. Just ask and they wil

Service was fast and friendly! Food was okay. Was fresh, but sauce wasn't anything special. Salad was heavy on lettuce, but was just lettuce and 2 small chunks of tomatoes.

We called ahead to confirm the wing portions before placing our order and were told that both bone-in and boneless wings come in 8-piece servings. However, when our order arrived, we received only 7 bone-in wings and 6 boneless. On top of that, the pizza was cold and the cheese wasn't even melted properly. When we called the store to address the issue, we spoke with Bill—who identified himself as the owner. Instead of acknowledging the mistake, he dismissed our concerns by saying, “It’s one piece of chicken, what do you want me to do about it?” But it’s not just one piece—it’s multiple issues with the entire order. As a business owner, minimizing a customer’s complaint instead of offering a solution is not only unprofessional, it reflects poorly on the business. This was a disappointing

Diane and I love Everything concerning ANGELO'S Bill Boyle,Mike Johnson,their wives,and All of their assistants are ,TOTALLY OUTSTANDING. THE FOOD IS NOT FANCY;BUT IT IS DELICIOUS!!. It is ,always,consistent in taste,presentation, and the Perfect temperature. Lasagna(meat or vegetarian) is the best when compared to Anyone else's!!! I like Both. The Carribean sandwich is Delicious and a quick meal at lunch or dinner. The Salads are ,always,fresh and Tasty. I do NOT like iceberg lettuce;but , I like their iceberg lettuce(fresh,crisp, and shredded). The staff is Attentive, courteous, and,they ,constantly, ensure that one's visit is remarkable from start to finish. Their prices are quite competitve; and,they,surely,beat any and all of the larger chains in ALL aspects. Thanks to All. Diane a

This is a delightful small restaurant offering a wide array of excellent choices. I personally found the pizza to be exceptionally good and very affordably priced. It is certainly a place one must experience. You will truly appreciate the charming small-town atmosphere here.
