When you first walk in Angeli's, you will feel like you're in a small town restaurant in Italy, and then it gets better, the staff is wonderful your personal server will come over and greet you, then read the specials for the day, once you look over the menu, you will be smiling because it reads like your mom or grandmas recipes, after receiving warm bread at our table, we were ready to order I had an order of bruchetta which was full of flavor, then a cup of minestrone also delicious, I also had a house salad with vinaigrette dressing, my main course was angel hair pasta with marinara sauce and two meatballs, absolutely delicious just like my mom made, my wife had the crab stuffed ravioli it was served in a beautiful cream sauce with shrimp and scallops, I couldn't help myself from reaching my fork over to her plate, she looked at me and smiled, that's what Angeli's is all about delicious food and a beautiful smile from who you are there with, I can't wait until our next visit. read more

We've been here multiple times but had one of those experiences where things weren't good. How a host and restaurant handle situations says a lot. While serving a martinis at the table, our server had an accident. The shaker lid came off and the blue martini spilled all over my wife, soaking her top and skirt. Our night out was ruined. We had to go home and wash her clothes in hope that it didn't stain. At the end of meal, the bill came and they comped her drink. So compensation for getting get a blue martini dumped all over you is brushed off with a single drink. I buy people at bars a drink for any reason. I asked the host about it and he said we didn't ask for anything more so... We are not people who are out fishing for free meals, but because we didn't beg for anything, the host evidently felt he was off the hook for trying to make it right. Ouch. I'm sure that's not the image you want to portray for your restaurant. read more

Celebrated a special milestone tonight--our son's graduation! The restaurant delivered a perfect evening for our party of 10, combining stellar service with mouthwatering dishes. What a wonderful way to honor our graduate. We had everything from shrimp Diablo, chicken Parmesan, to the chicken Marsala and trio appetizer. I highly recommend this restaurant! I wish we could bring it back to Oklahoma with us. read more

Angeli's Restaurant - Carbonara and Portabella Mushroom Ravioli - Italian Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

Friends of ours recommended the restaurant and while we loved the atmosphere and our service, the food was just average. We both got different specials - a veal pesto and a chicken mio - where both came with a house salad. The salad was a little watered down - if you know what I mean and we had higher hopes for the creamy garlic dressing. Our entrees were okay - but a bit bland in flavor. Given the great service / inside of restaurant, we wanted to like it a lot more...but sadly, did not. read more

We used Angeli's to cater our 130 person wedding on 7/25/25 and they could not have done it any better! Tables were prepared before I entered the venue, meal were fresh and delicious and we received many compliments on the appetizers. The owner Tony is real genuine and true to his work! I will hopefully be returning to the restaurant for a more casual dining experience. read more

I haven't been to this restaurant in years as I didn't care for it after a number of visits. So glad we tried Angeli's again this past weekend. We loved it! We were warmly greeted when we walked in by a gentleman, thinking may be a family member since this is a family owned establishment. My husband and I chose to sit at the bar. Kirsten was the bartender this evening and she was engaging and friendly. My husband had an old-fashioned and I had a Sicilian lemonade martini. Both good. We decided not to do any appetizers and just stuck to entrées to nit overeat. Both our entrées came with a salad. My husband had the house salad, and I had the Caesar salad for an upcharge, which was huge. I ended up sharing it with my husband because his salad was much smaller. The Caesar salad was fresh and crisp with a very tasty Caesar dressing. For our entrées my husband chose the Angry Butterflies, which was bow tie pasta in a spicy sauce with Italian sausage and mushrooms. He loved it, especially the kick of heat. I order edible the Rigatoni Arugula, which was rigatoni, arugula, tomatoes, pine nuts, and capers in a lemon butter sauce. It was delicious! I'm not sure if this restaurant makes their pasta in house or not, but it was good. The entrées were generous in size that we were able to take home our food to enjoy again. This 100% Italian girl gives the food her stamp of approval. There are lots of choices on the menu and they work with you if you have an allergy. During our interactions with Kirsten, I mentioned how much I love a crema di limoncello. I told her my favorite was from Italy and that I couldn't get it here in the US. She told me that she could make a really good crema di limoncello . I accepted her invite to make me one. She was dead on with the taste, but it wasn't as thick as what I bought in Italy. I told her I would be back just for her to make me a crema di limoncello again. I would recommend Angel'is for the good food and the friendliness of the staff. I also thought the pricing was reasonable. I'm so glad we gave this restaurant a try again. I can see this becoming my neighborhood hangout for good Italian food. read more

I cannot recommend a better place than Angelis for date night with your husband! It was my late husband and my FAVORITE spot and this past Saturday Tony and his staff honored my late husband and our family and friends with the most AMAZING memorial luncheon! The food, service and love from the staff was REMARKABLE! I highly recommend Angelis for any event and for date nights with your loved one! Thank You doesn't do it justice! read more

We came here with a really large party, so we were sat in a private room. This was great so there was a ton of space to talk to everyone. The servers were outstanding. They were friendly and very accommodating!! I ordered the Pescatori in white wine sauce. The portion was huge! The ceasar salad that came with it was delicious. I liked my meal a lot, since there was lots of seafood in it. My husband ordered the Veal Joey, which was okay. The clam chowder he ordered with his entree was great. We ordered crème brûlée for dessert and it was perfect. The chocolate chip bread pudding was incredible as well. I also had a cappuccino that was great to cap off the meal! This is a nice Italian restaurant in Naperville. read more

My wife and I attended a close friend's birthday party at Angeli's. The food is nothing short of outstanding. For appetizers, we tried the fried calamari, fried ravioli and bruschetta and for the main course, I had the clams and linguine and my wife had the Lasagne, both did not disappoint. The ambiance is comfortable and the service is some of the best in the area. Everything is fairly priced as well. read more

I've been driving past this place for decades, and never stopped. My loss. Here is a top-class Italian with a friendly vibe and inviting atmosphere. On a business dinner with the Ides Of March, and the fellow who was hiring us to play a private party at his Naperville Estate. Toni the Owner's Wife selected a number of things to start our meal off. Calamar' were butter-tender and ever-so-lightly breaded. A common appetizer, but lifted to another level here. We also had the grilled Calamar' which were superb. Breaded Artichokes were a true surprise, tasty as hell. The Burrata and Bruschetta were delicious, as was the Salsicc' and Peppers. Pre-Dinner, Tony the owner said not to miss the house-made Clam Chowder and he was 1000% correct. This bowl rivals the stuff I've had in Boston and Rhode Island-no lie. For Entree, I had "Beef Filet Vesivio". It was excellent. I ordered it "rare" and it was perfectly cooked and spiced. Tirami-su was splendid in a Martini Glass. The perfect portion for this rich dessert. Our bass player Bob is a Wine Expert and picked a great Red to accompany our meal. I'm an idiot, and forgot to ask what it was. Sinatra and the like for the background music, which is always a nice touch. One time where the cliché is most welcome. Throwing 5 for outstanding bread and circuses. Parking is easy. Don't be a fool and drive past this place-stop and have a great feed! read more

Just had dinner at Angeli's. This is a great place. The food is ample and delicious. The staff really hustles to provide great service. This was a Saturday night and every table was occupied. So it is noisy but the food and service make up for it. read more

Angeli's is always good! We come 4-5 times per year. My fave is the Chicken Giardiniera!

The pasta alfredo had a way too much darlic. The garlic bread was barely cooked so the cheese was hard on top

We made a reservation for 21 people.We were celebrating my Mother's 91st birthday. The restaurant is beautiful, the food is outbof this world. Our waitress Toni, is one in a million, she was dancing with my 7 year old great nephew, he loved it. I would highly recommend this outstanding family restaurant for any occasion, or a dinner out. We loved it. read more

I was that person, who wanted to go to Angeli's on a Saturday night without a reservation. I was going to wait. I know there was going to be a wait. I didn't mind waiting. Of course Angeli's is located in a strip mall because so many restaurants in the suburbs seem to be, and as I've passed by this restaurant many a times, Angeli's is always busy. When it was time to be sat the hostess called me by last name and didn't butcher it either. Being led through a busy Italian restaurant on a Saturday night, you knew you were in for a treat because the smells were just what I wanted. Italian food for me is one of my comfort foods and that's exactly what Angeli's is. A comfortable solid Italian experience with a food and drink menu that did not disappoint, at all. I assume it was one of the managers did stop by our table to ask if we were ok. He was checking on every single table to ensure everyone was fine. Taking note of a nearby table I couldn't help notice that the bussers took great pride in ensuring that the table was clean and the place setting was perfect. No crooked napkin or fork or anything on the table was out of place. It was great to see that everything had to be perfect on that table. The food as I opted for our servers recommendation was excellent. I need and want to come back to try everything on the menu, it's like that. I felt welcomed and had an experience that is well thought out and appreciated. The entire staff show passion in what they do, that's apparent and will bring me back time and time again. read more

It used to be great. Now it's barely average. The bartenders and severs are fantastic. Service is the best. Food is not good.

Giving this local spot in Naperville a 4-star rating. It was my first time having the Chicken Vesuvio, and it was pretty top notch. The white wine sauce with the roasted garlic was soooo good. I tossed all my veggies/chicken/potatoes into the sauce. I also tried Pasta e fagioli for the first time. It was a pleasant sausage/pork forward chili-like pasta soup. I did try the Crab Ravioli, but it wasn't my favorite and not nearly as good as the Chicken Vesuvio. The Cannoli was well-done (very much enjoyed by the others on the table who like Cannolis), and the Tiramisu was yummy. read more

Food, service and ambiance were fantastic. Who doesn't love Sinatra singing in the background? We loved everything we ordered.

First time to this restaurant in Naperville! Located on a strip mall that has been there for over 25 years! We had reservations and were quickly seated. We ordered lasagna and chicken piccata, which we feel it's a standard Italian dinner. The lasagna was good. My husband enjoyed the sauce that had sausage in it and the flavor was that of a pizza. The chicken piccata was a different matter. Presentation is important, the chicken was hidden by a jar amount of capers. That looked like someone just threw it on top carelessly!!! I like capers but that was crazy. I had to scrape it off the chicken to see the chicken! Usually capers are blended into the sauce and spooned onto the chicken. The sauce was watery with a slight lemon flavor. The chicken was over cooked which made it difficult to cut with the butter knife that was available. Usually the chicken is gently cooked with a flour coating. The broccoli was slightly blanched and was difficult to eat. It needed to be cooked more. A fork should easy pierce the vegetables . Not mushy but not off the plant, there is an in between. We might come back to try the pizza or lasagna again. They do have a variety of different meals and have a party room, but the basics have to be right! read more

Well Hell. I think the dining in experience is probably much better than the taking out, because the taking out was disappointing. We ordered dinner for 5 because some of the proceeds went to St. Pat's last night- an admirable gesture. But based on the quality of the food, we should have eliminated the middle man and donated directly to St. Pat's. The pasta fagioli soup was cold, thin gruel and lacked any advantage over the canned stuff you can buy at walmart. And the Chicken Piccata had the texture of a deck of playing cards (try biting down on a deck of cards sometime). It was hard, thin, and dry. I guess the spaghetti with meat sauce was serviceable. We were given the wrong order and were called at the halfway point of the drive home, so we went back and picked up our cold dry food. We should have kept the incorrect order, as it was probably hotter and fresher. Anyway, stuff happens, but when stuff happens and you pay handsomely for it, it leaves you wanting to write a yelp review. read more

Everything from the food to the ambience is always perfect! We've been coming here for the past 5 years. Service with a smile, always! My friends and family always feel like we are amongst extended family when we visit. Truly a hidden gem read more

I find the food to be exceptional, the spicy Shrimp Diavolo linguine was perfect, just the right amount of kick. The Shrimp, extra large were beautiful. A great dish if you're looking for some kick in your dish. Their Pasta fagio was very good along with the Caesar salad dressing which was quite tasty. We tried their stuffed mushrooms, stuffed with sausage, also quite good. We were not disappointed in any of the food we ate. Our server, Kristen was quite helpful with our wine selection, her take on the food we ordered and the dessert selection of Kristen's homemade Spumante , this had to be the best Spumante I've ever eaten. We like this place, it says Italian when you walk in, the decor is very nice. As for any suggestions, I've been to other Italian restaurants which offer stuffed banana peppers, I know how good they can be as an appetizer, It would be nice for Angeli's to consider this as an addition. Would I recommend and return, most definitely. read more

Wow! Hidden gem in the western burbs! Friendly, helpful staff, cute vibes, super clean and the bar area is really nice. The mushroom Brie soup is amazing. And they serve the soup HOT which I appreciate. Amazing eggplant parm. It's almost like a lasagne (has ricotta and mozzarella) but with eggplant as the noodles which is different but very good. House salad very fresh. Creamy garlic dressing was good. I've also tried the gnocchi in the brown sugar sauce and it tastes like Thanksgiving! A tilapia special with lemon sauce and capers was very good and their marinara has the right spices and consistency. So good! The bread is fresh and crusty. Wine and cocktails are delicious. The salted caramel martini was amazing. They have good specials and the staff take the time to explain things. Kind of old school in that and how the bussers make sure you have water, wrap your leftovers etc. but old school in a good way! A new favorite for sure! read more

Completely awesome. The owner and his wife are some of the nicest people! It's a great place to go for Italian food. A gem away from the downtown naperville core. A must try!!! read more

First time customers. Have passed the restaurant many times. Finally tried it last Sunday evening and didn't disappoint. Service was great from the start and continued throughout our dinner. Many servers checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Food was very good. Husband had Chicken Vesuvio and I had a pasta special. They came with great bread and soup or salad. Most restaurants do not include that any longer. Portions were large and pricing was fair for the amount of food. The atmosphere was that of a great family restaurant. Lots of large tables filled. We will definitely be back and recommend to friends. read more

Had a quick stop at Angeli's for dinner last week and it was an ok experience. The place was pretty packed on a Saturday night, but we were able to get a table pretty quickly for 3. The table bread was really good. The eggplant Parm was... Not my fave. They do offer gluten free pasta option, which was cool. Overall a nice place and good service. read more

Just had experience with both catering and dine in. Attended a friend's birthday party that was being catered and it was wonderful. All of the food was delicious, meatballs and bacon wrapped dates were to die for, and the service was fantastic. Just a few days later I took 7 of my coworkers there for dine in and it was perfect. Tony was very welcoming and our server Vicky was outstanding. Portions are very generous and tasty. I had the mushroom ravioli and I will be back for it again. The chicken parm was very well received by all that had it. Can't wait to return! read more

I researched A LOT of catering services for my daughter's graduation. Angeli's had great reviews, so when they were recommended to me by a reputable source, I immediately placed my order with them. Tony called me right away and went through my order, made great suggestions, and was so helpful! He made the process so easy for me. The pasta with the vodka cream sauce is to die for! I could eat the sauce out of the bowl by itself-mmmm! The chicken piccata was so tender. The meatballs were the perfect size and so tasty. My fav were the caprese kabobs- perfect for an outdoor summer party- they went fast! They are generous with their servings, all the way down to the salad dressings. It didn't taste like a typical catered meal, it tasted like GiGi had been cooking in our kitchen . A+!!! read more

My wife and I went to Angeli's on Saturday 1-4-25. We had been many times prior but wanted to point out how great the food and service was again. The drinks are always great and my wife claims they have the best Expresso Martini's. I enjoyed gnocchi with vodka sauce and my wife had the filet medallions. Our waitress was excellent and lastly, the dessert options are immense but I ended up having the salted caramel gelato. Looking forward to going back again. read more

Love this place! The food is delicious and overall just a great place for lunch or dinner. Staff are friendly and attentive.

I was in town for business and was looking for a good Italian place. I found Angelis on Yelp, read the reviews and was off and running. From the outside, it was very unassuming but once you walked in, wow. it was busy but I found a spot at the bar. It's always fun sitting at the bar as there is typically more interaction. This was no different. I started off with the special salad and had lasagna for my main. I really enjoyed the food. The salad was done really well. I enjoyed the lasagna but didn't understand the broccoli that came with it. Service was really good especially because they were very busy. Overall it was a good experience and I would return when I am in the area. read more

Best Italian in the state. Chicken parm is 10/10, love the bar area, steak here is also great . Have never had a bad meal here

I've been searching for good Italian food ever since moving from the city. Had some friends over on a Friday night and we ordered takeout from Angeli's. We ordered the rotini with vodka sauce, sausage pizza, clam chowder soup and shrimp Dijon. The rotini with vodka sauce was absolutely inedible. The pasta barely came with any sauce (as you can see from the picture) the noodles did not taste fresh and the chicken was extremely dry. The pizza was decent, the clam chowder was pretty good, and the shrimp Dijon was very plain with barely any sauce and only came with three shrimp for $18. We spent $100 on takeout for four people and all four of us agreed that it wasn't even close to being worth it. I haven't been this disappointed in a meal in a long time. None of us would order from here again. Maybe the food is better when you dine in! read more
