    It had been awhile since I've been to Angelo's and they did a remodel so figured I would update my review. From what I can tell, I don't think the menu content changed much, and that is NOT a complaint at all. Angelo's still remains a fun, local spot that has a family-owned feel to it. There aren't a TON of restaurants in downtown McFarland and this is still a great go-to option. Not really many other Italian spots nearby so it definitely fills a niche. Good service, diverse menu. I still love the mushroom ravioli and the pizza remains yummy. I had a Caesar salad for the first time and it was both beautiful and delicious. I guess the summary of my update is that it's still as lovely as it was before. It does look like they added some outdoor seating too which is nice for summer time!

    Yum! Started off with calamari and bruschetta which were both tasty and the meat on the calamari was not skimpy. If I could critique each I would add more salt and seasoning to the calamari and add balsamic to the bruschetta. I had the Thursday Special - Lobster Ravioli. The red sauce on this dish was SO good. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals and the vibe here is very nice. They let my sisters do half/half on their pizza which was nice! It's often busy here but you can wait in the bar area and get a drink which is what we did to pass the time.

    I Love, Love, Love Angelos. I miss the original on Monona Drive but this is a beautifully modern delicious option. I celebrate my birthday here every year! Their white pizza is to die for! I always order a large for myself for left overs! Don't miss it!

    Angelo's is my Cheers of McFarland. If you want to go to the place "where everybody knows your name" this is it! The owners are super friendly and dedicated to the town. Every item on the menu is delicious. If Dan the bartender screws up your order they'll give you a coupon for next time. My only complaint about the restaurant is thats its so busy all the time! They even expanded their dining room and it's still packed every night and the parking lot is always full. So I've changed my mind... please don't go there, so I can get a table. ;)

    I'm done. Sadly I think I'm done. I used to love eating at Angelo's but no more. When I first ate there, their pizza was really good. Great tangy sauce. But over the years, that magic is gone. I'm not sure if the recipe has changed but it lacks flavor and depth. My daughter got the lasagna. Meh. I wish owners would taste their food more often for quality control. Add love to the sauce and don't be afraid of seasonings. But the biggest disappointment was the salad. I have ordered their wedge salad for years. Perfect generous wedge of iceberg drizzled with a decent amount of dressing and topped beautifully with crumbles and bacon. I don't know how to describe what I got tonight. It was a small wedge that was sliced thinly in 3 pieces and it was DROWNING in dressing. See the attached photo. I used to be able to get a bite of salad with almost no dressing that was a great palate cleanser. I could control how much dressing I got. There was no escape from this salad. And they just upped the price by $3. Decor was great and our server was very friendly. Just sad to say goodbye to a well loved staple in our restaurant arsenal. We'll be looking for another place to fill that slot.

As you enter, there is a decent sized bar off to your right with a few high top tables. To your left is the dining room, which is cozy and intimate. Someone at a table near us was having what looked like a margarita, and that made me want a margarita. So, instead of getting a bottle of wine, we both got a margarita. It was not what the other person was drinking, but oh my was this one of the best margaritas I've had in recent memory! It was SO good. It had a lot of ice in it, so next time I might ask for it straight up just so I can savor it and not let the ice water it down. We also had delicious bread brought to the table with a plate of olive oil and balsamic. The bread was cut into nice little pieces, was warm, and had a delightful texture where the outside was slightly crisped but not enough to impede your bite and the inside was just warm and soft. The have a nice, varied menu and it was hard to decide what to get. I was really craving marinara sauce, so I ended up going with the Cappellaci Di Salsiccia which was a meat and cheese enclosed pasta with marinara. And it was delicious. It also came out very beautifully plated. My dining mate ordered the Penne Pollo e Pesto and loved it. I'm not wild about pesto, but had to sample a bit and the way the pesto clung to the penne was really tasty. They also have a ragu lasagna and chicken piccata on their menu that I can't wait to try. As we were leaving, I saw a sign with two of their featured fall cocktails and both sounded incredible. I will have to be back for all of these things!!

While seated at the bar, I was engaged in conversation by one of the servers Josie. A delightful young college student from U of Wisconsin. She told me about the area, the university and things of interest in the area. She was attentive to her customers, but when she had a brief moment, she would reengage me in conversation. She and all of the other servers were like bees swarming all over the restaurant. Their staff are extremely hard working and diligent to their customers. This was my first time here while visiting for work assignment. I plan to make this my "must have" when revisiting.

It looks like a divey bar on the outside. And unsurprisingly it is on the inside too. But What it IS is amazing food wise. Everyone talks about the French toast. Having never had RumChata in a cocktail I can't comment but that toast is OFF THE CHARTS. But so is the biscuits and gravy. A ton of meat. Service is strained but lovely. And when you see what that cook is working with you're even more impressed. A 6'X4' cooking station and you make this? Wow. My only complaint is the bacon. Not great. Not actually good.

Love the feel of this place, and would love to come back for a dine-in option and sample the beverage offerings! What drew me back in to Salvatore's was their community fundraising night they did for the injured police officer and his K9. I wish there was a little bit more of advanced notice, but I love when local businesses really take an active part in their community and try to give back. And giving back at $10/pizza sold is way more than a lot of businesses do so A+ for that! Obviously, since I was coming here for the fundraiser, I ordered " the Kimberley" even though Italian sausage isn't usually my jam. Still, the pizza was SO GOOD. I think I was even able to get extra sauce on my pizza. While I am not a fan of a lot of crust still, the pizza is awesome and it's always a fun pizza crust treat for my puppers.
