Been coming here Forever. But last Saturday we went in for dinner not lunch. They keep the lights on light a police station They don't know how to set the mood. The bartender needs to be retrained on how to make a margaritas WAY TOO SWEET. they just don't want us to come back. And the pizza is way too salty. Sad to say I probably won't come back. read more

Angelo's II - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

Very good and clean hey has to be here Angelo good good good come with your family or friends

Great salad bar and pizza! I will definitely come back again. Salad bar had lots of yummy salads on it.

I always have nice memories of having a nice time in a very nice place that is welcoming with smiles, relaxed servers who are pleasant to be around and make you want to come back for the warm atmosphere and delicious food without the high price tag like a lot of restaurants have changed over to. Honestly, for the best value and atmosphere and the welcoming people, this is my favorite restaurant to come to Especialy for the lunch, salad, bar, and pizza and pasta Very clean establishment and I love the view outside nice solid tables and all kinds of decorations. Even the lamps are absolutely beautiful. I hope this restaurant is around for the rest of my life. read more

Angelo's II - It's always time for a good time at Angelo's 2 - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

If you have children, avoid this place. I stopped in to grab a pizza and then bring home some food to go. I sat down and waited for a long time. Server finally took my order. I ordered a pizza for there and a children's spaghetti to go. (Planned to bring the spaghetti for my kid who was at practice). Sat waiting for a bit and the server came over and said the "the kitchen won't do a kids spaghetti to go." No explanation of why... just that they wouldn't do it. I got up and left. I'll go somewhere else. What a horrible experience read more

We love Angelo's. We haven't even perused their full menu! My niece always gets the same meal. But her choice of desserts depends on offering for that day. read more

We just love it there! When the kids come home, it's a must to go to! Always friendly servers too!

Great food for a great deal and decent serving for their lunch special... I was pretty impressed by the service and value of the meal.

Always enjoy Angelo's when we come out to visit from Utah. The Chellini is perfect for my Celiac wife, and I get to eat the tasty garlic bread. I usually get the sausage Sando cuz Utah doesn't know about Italian sausage. Salads could use more lettuce that's not iceberg. Salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and parm should be available in shakers not those horrible little packets. 1/3 the price too! So fast, friendly, and consistent! Way to go! read more

The food is okay nothing special. Service a good nice people. The inside is big i was surprised and yes it was clean inside. read more

Angelo's II - spaghetti pizza - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

This ravioli was terrible..frozen ravioli with some kind of gross tasting meat sauce and a little meatball.. Please ask your Sisco rep for a better tasting meat ravioli. There are so many better recipes out there for the sauce. The canned stuff Chef has an uncanny similarity in taste. I'm sorry but the quality is not there. I ate my salad just paid for it and left. The smart-ass server could use some coaching as well. She called me cheap, but I still left her 8 dollars on a 25 dollar bill. I may return, I may not. read more

Angelo's II - This ravioli was terrible.. frozen ravioli with some kind of gross tasting meat sauce and a little meatball. - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

Great place an pizza is really tasty. Highly recommended!! Nice booths and clean place!!

Angelo's pizza is the pizza that if you move you'll never taste anything like Angelo pizza. Get the special, you will think of Angelos when you think Sterling and Rock Falls ,Illinois read more

In the last 2 weeks we tried Angelo's 1st time it was for dinner we drove 45 minutes and it was ok... 2nd weekend we decided to try it again .. we arrived 5 minutes after 2 on a Saturday they still had their all you can eat up.. when I asked if I could get it she said no it was after 2 .. well ok .. I was disappointed I understand they have rules.. I even said I'd pay the extra she said no again .. the food sat out for about 30 more minutes before they took it away.. we drive 45 minutes to eat at their restaurant.. We will not be doing that again.. read more

I am not a fan of Angelo's regular pizza. I will eat the spaghetti pizza. The garlic bread and Italian bread are very good. The fettuccini Alfredo is bland and very expensive. They have raised their prices exponentially. I typically get carry out spaghetti or spaghetti pizza, that is really the only thing I eat from this restaurant. read more

Can never go wrong with some spaghetti pizza and yummy salad bar! Always have good fast service too!

Spent over $75 and the pizza was dry and very little ingredients on them. Extremely disappointed. Will never order from that location again.

Very good pizza. Needed something easy for dinner while traveling for work. Nice char on crust.

Angelo's is one of my go-to places in Dixon. The spaghetti pizza is unique and really good. Service is quick and friendly, portions are generous, and the salad bar has some great things on it. Do yourself a favor and get a loaf of the bread. It's sweet and yeasty and has a great texture. It's also a great deal. I usually get one to take home. read more

They are cutting corners on the food quality and raising the prices. The new management is going to ruin this local business.

need better people working there. some of the people are sweet but some are disrespectful. the food is decent.

Was just back over the past weekend and was VERY happy to see the bread is now more like it was before they messed with it. I can't say it's EXACTLY the same but it's close enough for me. Everything else is exactly as it should be. Greatest sauce of all, excellent spaghetti and the Special pizza was tasty as always. read more

We always stop here when we are in town. The pizza never disappoints and the beer is very cold. Pro tip - Get a cup of the Angelo's sauce, it comes with bread to dip it in. You will not regret it. They have the famous spaghetti pizza which is good, but we usually just stick to the thin crust. The italian beef pizza is delicious too. I have actually had several things on the menu and I have never been disappointed. read more

Angelo's II - Buffalo wings! - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

Stopped in here with family after a funeral. We had an extremely large group, and they were able to easily accommodate us. The staff was friendly. I had pizza which was really good, and the salad bar, that was also yummy. I would come back again if in the area. read more

I understand the fascination for this place and imagine it is rooted in this restaurant being a staple for many growing up in the area. Therefore the love for Angelo's is probably linked to fond memories and not food quality. As an outsider without such sentimental ties I can objectively say that the food is barely passable. The garlic bread was obviously frozen and simply put in the oven. The bruschetta was unpalatable as a result of immense amount of salt used in its creation. And to quote Henry Hill, "I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup". This place will likely continue to filled by locals on weekend nights, but to those lacking the sentimental relationship, do your tastebuds a favor and save your money read more

I have been forced to eat here again and again by my husband because this is the pizza he grew up with. He absolutley has to have it each time we're in town, and I always thought it's no big woop. Well, someone ordered the spaghetti stuffed pizza recently and now I am a fan! It's particularly good for late night after you leave the bars! read more

I get cravings for Spaghetti and Mac n' Cheese pizza constantly. The Spaghetti bread is gooey in the perfect amount. I remember the margaritas being pretty good too. The service can be pretty hit or miss though; I mean, it's Sterling. Consider expanding to Chicago, plz. read more

This pizza place was a staple of my mothers growing up. Although I only get to have it about once a year, it is my most favorite pizza ever! I don't stray too far from the pizzas because I try to fill up on it as much as possible while I am visiting. The lunch buffet is a must have because you can get a bunch for really cheap. Try to get it when they first put it out though, it is not as good warm. (oddly is it great cold the next day) I like the interesting pizza toppings. the mexican pizza and spaghetti pizza are my favs by far. The one I eat the most of is just plain sausage. Sausage on pizza is done way different here than in CA. It is so good I have been known to take a couple frozen ones back when I return home. read more

If you're from the area and move away, this is one of the places you MUST visit when you return home. For me, it's all about the crust. It's slightly sweet, which sounds bizarre until you bite into it. I also love their specialty pizzas, especially the BLT (trust me - it's amazeballs). On my last visit there, I thought it was slightly bizarre that the TVs were showing an infomercial for P90X - perhaps as a helpful hint for those of us saying "Holy cow, how am I going to work this off?" read more

I Yelped, I came, I had some Spaghetti pizza! For a small town, this place is huge!!! I'm pretty sure the entire town was there upon arriving with my wife and kids. The Setup: 1:30 on a Sunday. I Yelped and they came up the winner. Everyone seemed to say this was the best, been going for years, have to try the spaghetti pizza.... The Place: This place is huge and Heavily decorated. I was impressed at their size since my home town is way larger and I'm not sure could support a local biz this big. The Service: This is down home style, the server partly sat at our table while taking the order and was very friendly! Made you feel very welcome. Refills were abundant and overall they were very attentive. The Food: For an app we had Garlic bread with cheese. This was a nice and crispy garlic bread with just the right amount of cheese! I give it a 9! Currently only Home Run Inn Pizza has a better one that I can think of and they are no where near here. Spaghetti Pizza: Everyone seems to swear by this... It is a basic spaghetti and basic sauce on a basic pizza dough. It is HUGE(read Really heavy) Due to the overall ingredient list the crust is doughy out of the oven, I liked the flavor of the crust and I like doughy pizza sometimes, but some folks might not. Ultimately I would pass next time, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special besides being a Spaghetti Pizza to begin with . My kids did not like it (5 & 6) and did not finish. I will say the sausage was very tasty, but it could have a used a bit more. I'll go with a 5 on this one. Looking at the menu there are quite a few other choices that seem good. While we were there we saw a baked pasta dish that looked awesome! I also hear the Lasagna is great! Value: Although I did not go the value route(I take that back, I think I paid only about a buck a pound on the pizza), the menu is full of them. $1.99 Margaritas on certain days, kids salad bar and meals are very inexpensive and many other dishes are very reasonable! I'm on a 4 star rating because this was a nice place doing a very impressive business. I think they have 3 locations as well so I can only respect that. The staff was friendly and the food seemed pretty good over all! If I'm in town, I will certainly stop back in to try some other items! read more

Visiting Illinois from California. While here I had the best pizza at Angelo's! Had the spaghetti, Spagetti pizza, sausage pizza, taco pizza and chicken bacon ranch pizza. Three days in a row of eating here was barely enough. Best pizza I've ever eaten. If they opened up a restaurant back in Los Angeles I would go weekly! read more

Yes, the Spaghetti Pizza is good (not great), but it's appeal lies in uniquity. Where else have you even heard of a Spaghetti Pizza? Fortunately it's not the reason why I continue to back time and time again. The Italian hamburger is my favorite meal in the whole world. The bread that it sits on is unlike anything I've ever had. Occasionally we'll order a couple loaves of bread and make our own garlic bread at home, or put on some American cheese and warm it up in the microwave. Their regular thin crust pizza is towards the top of my list and living in Chicago I have my pick of great pizza. If you want a little variety, go there on Saturday for the pizza buffet or Sunday for the pasta buffet. Been going there for years whenever I visit relatives in Sterling/Rock Falls and felt it was time to write a reviews. Writing this review has my taste buds going, can't wait for the next time. read more

Ohh Angelo's.. obviously another place I don't get to visit as much as I'd like to living 13 hours away. But when we DO go to Illinois this is a MUST! We usually stop by the local grocery store and stock up on the sauce too before we leave. Maybe it's the nostalgia of going here when I was young and always hoping to get the corner booth in the dim lit, smokey atmosphere.. It reminded me of Goodfellas. I digress. Food is amazing, my cousin finally got me to try the mac n cheese pizza -WOW yum! Now it's updated and a fun spot for large groups/intimate dinners/Sunday after church meals/whatever! The past few times I've gotten the lunch buffet -I can't decide on just ONE meal, so I sample :) read more

Chicago pizza sucks compared to Angelo's. Glad to come home to my hometown favorite every month. read more

Angelo's II - Awesome salad bar - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Illinois

See all

Angelo's is one of my favorite places to visit when I'm home to see my parents. The food is phenomenal! Pasta crocks, regular pizza, spaghetti pizza, mac n' cheese pizza - you can't go wrong! While the food alone deserves a 5/5, the service is sub par at best. I typically prefer to do carry-out so I don't have to deal with the waitstaff. read more

What I get every single time at Angelo's is something that I've realized through the years few people have ever tried....Spaghetti Pizza! A trip home is not complete without Spaghetti Pizza. Each time it is as good as the first time I tried it. Even though I know I shouldn't, I have to try to some bread and sauce before my pizza! Their sauce, along with their pizza, is amazing and a great garnish for your pizza even if you don't get bread. I'm looking forward to their move to Dixon! read more

Every time I order a pizza there lately they get my order wrong and as it is we have to wait a long time so when I tell them they messed up they offer to make a new one but they want me to return the other and everyone in my house is hungry to wait for another pizza so I'm very unsatisfied with a pizza place I used to really like read more

Always great. Never a bad meal! Love the buffet and salad bar. Always slow to get the check.

My favorite pizza by far. but first, let's talk spaghetti pizza. Truly an original. All this talk about deep dish pizza in Chicago and no one has come up with a Spaghetti pizza yet? For shame. Drive 2 hours west and find our how it's done. Granted I grew up in this town, so I might be biased, but have introduced many people to it and they are all fans. Now back to my favorite pizza. I love spaghetti pizza, don't get me wrong, but for the best all around pizza, order the Special. Thin crust with sausage, pepperoni, green pepper, onions, mushrooms and tomatoes. The exact right toppings as far as I'm concerned. The thin crust is this delicious dough that is unlike every pizza place in Chicagoland I have tried. Lots of sauce, and generous with the toppings...pizza doesn't get any better. Oh, and for a great side, ask for the loaf of bread and cup of sauce for dipping read more
