Angelina's Ristorante Review

Great wine selection. Food is definitely above average...way above. Atmosphere is classy but NOT boring.

The food is over the top! The squash ravioli is a must have!
The service was superb and the staff were so accommodating. Loved it!

So delicious. Attentive waitstaff. Wonderful cocktails.

Great food and atmosphere! Very expensive so a once in a while type place but very good and large portions.

We love everything about this restaurant! Try the butternut squash ravioli. It is amazing! So good I had a second helping for dessert. Yum!

Angelina's has some of the best food in southwest Florida. I've been several times and the food is always outstanding. Be prepared it is expensive but well worth the premium. Don't forget the doughnuts after your meal.

What an EXPERIENCE! The wait staff was so attentive to our table. We never had to ask for anything. The Drinks were DELICIOUS! I had the margarita during their FABULOUS happy hour. I had a variety of their appetizers, also SUPERB! The Calamari had Snapper with it, YUM! The Squash Ravioli was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I would give Angelina's 10 stars if I could. I cannot wait to go back!

I would like to give it 4.5 stars. But only because compared to The Grill at Ritz Carlton, it is far behind.

The food here is great, and service is good too. But again, compared to the Ritz it falls short. Both are priced similar, but one beats the other.

The valet was great. Very helpful and fast. Some female staff members were dressed like it was a club rather than a nice restaurant. And the rest of the staff was good, but still were not on top of things as much as the Ritz staff.

Angelina's is a local favorite and for very good reason: amazing food and exceptional service. Whenever we have a special occasion or feel like celebrating a momentous occasion the first place we consider is Angelina's Ristorante. The pastas made in-house are unbelievable and the service hands-down is the best we have experienced in Bonita Springs. Absolutely deserving of five stars - and I would give ten if I could!

We had a very nice meal here in the service was excellent

Great appetizers and drinks.
Tonight the main entrees were very salty. The wait service sloppy. Not one person cleaned the table off. The waiters kept placing the utensils on top of a dirty table.

Quite possibly one of the best restaurants in the area. The staff and food are exceptional.
I would give more stars if I could!

Ridiculously expensive!! Small portions and the taste was just average at best. Great service but not worth the prices. There are many other better choices in town for a nice Italian dinner at a reasonable price. Will not be back. Sorry.

What an amazing dining experience! The mood, ambiance, food and drinks as well as the service was beyond perfect! Would specifically come to Fort Myers to have a special occasion at Angelina's!!!

Absolutely AMAZING! This is easily one of the best restaurants you can find anywhere. The quality of the food may have been the best I've ever had anywhere and the service was phenomenal. The staff definitely goes above and beyond to make sure each customer has the best experience possible. If you're looking for an authentic Italian experience and a time to remember, this is the place to be!

Truly AMAZING!!!!! Finest dining experience in a very long time. Warner Is a class Act!!! He makes each and every quest feel a queen or king for the night

With all of this disruption, we knew we could count on Angelinas. They notified us of the change to carry out only and walked us how to order and execute our pick up. We have to give a shout out to Lacy who helped it all happen. The food was terrific. Let s support our local restaurants.

Excellent food, quality service. Kind staff. Highly recommend.

Lively atmosphere in old world setting. Excellent food. Great Happy Hour menu

Wonderful service, just the right sized menu, well stocked bar. Food is excellent as you would expect.

My wife and I celebrated my birthday and were very impressed. Paula was our waitress and gave great service. I had the fried calamari & halibut as my appetizer and Ragu Misto for the entree. For dessert, we had the gelato. This is definitely fine dining and a meal you will never forget.

Very good food but pricie. I would go back only for a special occasion. They had live entertainment, a guy playing the piano. The wine list is a mile long and I don't know the first thing about wine so I drank iced tea. I ordered chicken, it was very good and the cheapest item on the menu. The service was excellent. Go with other people but make reservation.

ALWAYS good
great atmosphere

Our Waiter Dini was outstanding... all 3 meals were excellent... I had the beef fillet and it was wonderful.... however I thought the menu was very limited....but the cannoli l s were heavenly

Entries were awesome, osso bucco outstanding
Waitress service did not match the food or the ambience

When we pulled up to the restaurant the valet was ready to help me out of the car and ran to hold the door for the hubby and I as we entered the restaurant. Great first impression! The remainder of the dining experience was spot on! Alise our server made great suggestions and Made is feel like we were her only customers.
Dina the sommelier was great and very willing to help us make the perfect wine choice! Of which could be a daunting task as the wine list was enormous!
Excellent food, excellent service and beautiful atmosphere made this a perfect experience for our special anniversary celebration! We will be most definitely be back and highly recommend!

Came as an out of towner after a conference with my sister and all I can say is woof! When walked in, I was asked if I was for to go - told we could only sit in the lounge area - lounge area had no where to sit and then we were yelled at for trying to move a chair. Was in and out within 2 minutes. If that is your jam - go for it. If you are looking for Italian cuisine and are from out of town..y all have been warned. Would recommend the restaurant marketing folks to add that to the website - must look a certain way to be welcome. Thank you, next.

NOT RECOMMENDED! We just dined at this restaurant and were automatically charged 25% gratuity! There was just the two of us and our 4 year old! Since when does a restaurant apply 25% gratuity on the bill, automatically??? Well, this place does. Disgusting! We choose the gratuity, not Dan the waiter. I would have lest around 18%. That is my choice and I do not accept the waiter making such a decision for me. This is not a fine dining establishment, the food is not the greatest and the service is not the best. Overpriced? Yes! There are better places such as the Ritz Carlton and The Capital Grille near by. We would never go back here and we would never recommend this place. Enter at your own risk and be prepared to line the waiter's pocket with plenty of $$$ !

Went here for our first anniversary. Had a drink and appetizer at happy hour prices before dinner, which were good. Then we were seated in a stuffy, dark "back room" for our meal. Food and service were very good. Prices are a bit high for my taste, but the food is good enough to go back again! Might skip the reservation and just hit happy hour.

Veal Piccata was delicious!Great atmosphere, friendly staff.

A fine dining excelance. wonderful ambiance, food and service

Had an awesome time on a Monday night. I sat at the bar by myself and ordered a bottle of wine as well as the scallop and pork belly dish. Both were delicious! Michael the bartender was amazing. I was the only one at the bar so he had plenty of time to chat and tell me all the amazing things to see while I was in town. I would definitely recommend a visit. Apparently they have a piano player Tuesday through Saturday if I was listening correctly

Very romantic atmosphere with 5 star food and wine.

New favorite Italian restaurant. Everything is hand made and you can taste the difference. Ask for server, Sarah

I honestly think this is possibly the best "italian" food in the area [not including Downtown Naples ] good service , great wines and awesome food!

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere what more could you ask for? A+++++

This was our first time to Angelina's. My husband made reservations for my birthday! We absolutely loved it!! Food was out of this world, and so was the service! Best birthday dinner ever!!

Angelina s is a superb restaurant. The food is delicious, the wine list is expansive, the service is extraordinarily friendly and accommodating, and the decor is beautiful. Parking is valet or self and prices are moderate to high but at More

Wonderful service great food. Made our anniversary dinner special

A great restaurant experience. Worth the trip. The place has a wine cellar 30 feet tall. Piano bar. Food and service was excellent. Looking forward to eat there again.

Great place to go for a special occasion; birthday, anniversary etc...it's pretty, quiet and a lovely atmosphere. If you're simply looking for a basic italian, there are lots of.other choices. If you're looking for something more memorable, this is the choice. And, the 1/2 off $175 wines make it all that much more affordable - great wine values here too

Great menu. Try the Happy Hour but be there by 4 pm or you might not get a table.

Good food nice workers a little expensive but nice to visit for nice dinner for anniversary.

Love their happy hour! Off to the left is a cozy bar area with a sunken piano-and leather booths --great food offerings and drinks.

Such a awesome place. The food, service and atmosphere were amazing! Will definitely be back!

Great dinner excellent service we celebrated our 50 th wedding anniversary staff was fabulous have us beautiful dessert and Happy Anniversary written in chocolate

I have dined at this restaurant often, going last night with friends who had never been and had wanted to go for years we found a restaurant that is slipping . What once was a great restaurant has fallen to average . On their dinner for two menu they offer a red snapper that looks pathetic and dry . The guest who ordered it didn't say anything until the end but said it was dry, when we told the waiter he shook his head in agreement and said yes this is always been like that were working on it was the comment . Totally unacceptable for a place that charges this much money and isn't paying attention to details ! I would fire the chef and the general manager for a lack of caring and for not doing the job that they're hired to do . I have never left 10% but when a server knows that a dish is bad and still serves it I feel they're not doing their job and I will not tip them for it . Water glasses were left empty throughout dinner food brought without plates to share I can go on and on it was a night that I would never want to repeat in any restaurant let alone one that is supposedly one of the best in the area. There are great restaurants in this area Angelinas has slipped off that list ! My suggestion go somewhere else .

The perfect place for a 4 course Italian dinner on a special occasion. Top notch service and a 3 story tower of wine!!

This was my 2nd time visiting Angelina's. Both times the food was excellent so kudos to the chef. First time I had a nice quiet booth and this time, due to high season, the restaurant, with a reservation, could not accommodate my request for a booth. They called me and suggested a table beside the window in the 'Garden Room' in the back. My table was set for 4 and it was changed to a deuce but I noted the tables were very close together. When paying the rates at Angelina's one should not feel crowded and had I requested a table for 3 or 4 it would have been quite impossible for everyone to be seated at that table without banging into the other tables. Bottom line, the wine I ordered was not available so just a series of events that seemed out of place for this restaurant. As I said the food was excellent but the overall experience, the ambience and the OK service made me ponder if I am to return. Yes, perhaps an off night but I rather be told the restaurant was booked heavily and my table request could not be granted for the night and maybe another evening would be acceptable. I guess that plus the wine not being available was simply not up to my standards for fine dining.

great happy hour specials! One of my favorite weekend spots.

excellent service from the waiter, denisse was fabulous and food was great.

It is always a great experience.
The food is very consistent and the service is excellent.
Great ambiance too.

Exceptional food and service and atmosphere and just everything

We came here for the first time after our engagement. Fast forward to 8 years later (tonight). It only gets better with time, just like fine wine. The Osobucco and the wild mushroom risotto were delicious! Compliments to the Chef!
Edward gave great recommendations and excellent service!

Miguel was amazing! Professional, knowledgeable, a total pleasure. Thank u Miguel!

I d like to take a moment to thank everyone at Angelina s Restorante for the excellent service they provide to each guest creating memorable experiences. In particular, I would like to thank the General Manager, Nate Watt, for Hosting Florida Gulf Coast Universities Bridge Program this summer. This program introduces soon to be high school graduates to the hospitality industry and your participation has helped in teaching these young minds what fine dining incorporates as a guest and as a worker.

As for my experience dining at Angelina s, it has been wonderful! The food was amazing and the wait staff was very knowledgeable about the food and on etiquette. I have only been to the restaurant twice now, once on my own with family and the other with FGCU s Bridge program, but both times the experience has excided my expectations.

We had a wonderful dinner for Valentines day. Service is top notch. Zeppoli for desert was an awesome treat.

The wine selection is quite good, the food is top notch and the piano bar really makes the whole experience too notch.

First class in all ways. Silverplate flatware sets the standard for the rest of the experience, which was flawless.

Even in off season a great meal, service and atmosphere

Angelina's is located in North Tamiami (Rt 41), just south of the Coconut Point Mall. The restaurant offers a high end experience starting with valet parking and ending with an after dinner aperitif.

The space is divided into six different dining areas, each with a different vibe, all offering interesting seating arrangements, some of which were very private feeling.

The staff, which includes a sommelier, were uniformly gracious, friendly and well knowledgeable on their subject matter. They were also very passionate about the food.

The food, from our experience, was good but not what we expected. The baked cheese and eggs came out extremely hot causing burns to the roof of the mouth which mildly impacted enjoying the rest of the meal. It was tasty but the bread was a little too crusty and came apart when the cheese eggs and sauce were added on. For entrees, we decided to try a number of 1/2 order pasta dishes and a seafood dish. The ability to order half portions is a nice feature and the portions just the right size.

The butternut squash was on the sweet side, which I prefer. The Cacio e Pepe was just okay. We added real shaved truffles for a significant upcharge but still were left underwhelmed and ended up salting a bit. The veal pasta was in a heavy sauce which overwhelmed the pasta. Good flavors but, either to strong or not strong enough. The scallop entree was well prepared and the pork belly added a nice saltiness to the dish.

We were too full for dessert, so can't comment on that. There is a full bar and a large wine list. Online reservations are available.

A good place to go for a special event to be surrounded by all the pomp and circumstance of fine dining, a little more than the food itself.

We tried their Happy Hour. Not impressed. The food did not have flavor. No affordable red wines at HH. Won't go back.

Amazing meals, wine, and staff. Every time with out fail.

This restaurant is wonderful and knows how to do Italian. Really nice venue and the booth area is perfect for a romantic evening.
The 30 foot wine cellar is gorgeous and aesthetically pleasing. The food is absolutely fantastic. I had the Margarita Pizza and the Butternut Squash is amazing and the texture of it it perfect. You will NOT be disappointed. Excellent service; staff is so friendly.

Always a perfect evening, service is outstanding, the chef is genius! We love it all!

WAS a regular -

Not a fan of the new menu. A lot of great dishes no longer available and prices have all been raised on the existing menu items. Will not be returning.

Had a wonderful dinner last night with friends. They have a new chef who has changed the menu. Their pastas are authentic and delicious! The service has always been great. Ask for Angela, their sommelier. She is wonderful and their wine selection may be the best in the city. It is the number 1 fine dining Italian restaurant in Southwest Florida.

Good and service (Katie) was amazing! Only downside was noise, but that seems to be the norm in SW FL

Impeccable service, every dish perfectly prepared, absolutely wonderful evening!

This is definitely a place for any special occasion. There several dining areas from a booth, a table with a garden view to a bar area. The wine tower is neat. The foods and service are always great. Our favorite is the oso buca and the dough balls
