Since my…read morefamily couldn't be with me, I was hoping the night would still feel special and it absolutely did. The atmosphere was warm, the food was incredible, and the whole experience felt memorable from start to finish. Our servers, Megan and Jessica, were fantastic and made the evening even better. They were friendly, helpful, and made sure everything was perfect. They took the time to explain the menu and made us feel very welcome. Every dish tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food here. I'm really glad I chose this restaurant for my birthday and I'll definitely be coming back again

We drove in from New Orleans, and after checking in to the hotel and seeing Fort Pickens, we came…read moreto Bonelli's Cafe for dinner. There was a large tent set up for ourdoor seating, and the weather was mild this evening. Several servers passed by and assured us that someone will be with us. After a few short moments, someone arrived and took us and another party to the back, another series of turns, into a secluded wing near the kitchen. The waiter, Marlon P., was very nice, and explained the specials, one of which we ordered: the Muffuletta Baked Rigatoni. He said it was like a deconstructed Muffuletta sandwich (which I didn't get to try in New Orleans). I ate the angel hair with vito's il diavolo sauce with sausage. Also ordered was a lasagna and Nico's Greek salad. The meals were delicious, especially the baked Muffultta Rigatoni! I was impressed by the food, and the area we sat in was decorated nicely! Much better than sitting in a tent in the front of the restaurnt.

You know that dangerous moment when work colleagues hype a restaurant so hard that you walk in…read morealready preparing your disappointment speech? That was me heading into Angelena's Ristorante Italiano. By this point, I was fully expecting the usual "it's amazing" translation, which in restaurant terms often means nice lighting, tiny portions, and flavors that peaked at olive oil. Instead, this place did the unthinkable. It actually lived up to the hype. The menu reads like a beautiful collection of words I absolutely cannot pronounce with confidence, but luckily fluency in Italian is not required when your taste buds immediately understand the assignment. I went with the bolognese lasagna, and this thing came out like a love letter to comfort food. Rich, bold, deeply flavorful, and gloriously rustic, the kind of dish that tastes like somebody's grandmother has been perfecting it since the Roman Empire. Every bite had depth. Nothing fussy, nothing trying too hard, just serious flavor delivered with confidence. The focaccia showed up doing exactly what great bread should do: crisp in the right places, soft where it counts, and impossible to stop tearing apart even when you know your entrée is on deck. The appetizer played a completely different game, more delicate, more refined, and smart enough to leave me wanting the next course instead of filling me up before the main event. That's restraint. That's craft. That's a kitchen that knows what it's doing. And the room matches the food. Clean, classy, polished without feeling stiff. The kind of place where everything from the lighting to the plate placement quietly reminds you that yes, somebody here cares. Service was equally dialed in. Professional, on point, and smooth enough that the whole meal just flowed. No awkward gaps, no disappearing acts, no "how is everything?" drive-bys while your mouth is full. This is the rare restaurant that survives workplace hype and then casually exceeds it. Five stars. Angelena's didn't just meet expectations, it made my coworkers look smarter for recommending it.

It wasn't bad, just nothing special. I had the curry wurst the first time I was here, which was nothing like the Curry Wurst in Berlin. Tasted like an American interpretation. This time I had the buffalo wings, which were decent, definitely better than the curry wurst. My mom had the Jaeger Schnitzel, which came with potatoes, she also ordered a side of red cabbage. Jaeger Schnitzel was ok, potatoes were fine. I did like the red cabbage, but it is vinegary, which is the way I prefer it. I noticed other reviewers mentioned this as well. I had the apple strudel. It looked like the ice cream was plated over a week ago, I don't know how to better explain it. The whipped cream was frozen in the center. The strudel was good, but you could tell it had been made a while ago and they had reheated it. It did not come with berries and powdered sugar like it showed on in other pictures on-line. The only staff that seemed to enjoy working there were the young new trainees, you could tell the rest of the staff didn't really want to be there. Decent ambience to get a draft German beer, but there are better places to get dinner on S. Palafox.

The Palafox and Hendricks Froze are my favorite! Some great happy hour deals too! Such as the mimosas. The charcuterie board was picturesque, and it could easily feed 3 people.

The deck is quite enjoyable for a number of reasons. It is shaded and surrounded by lush vegetation and it's much quieter than inside and more conducive to conversation, especially for folks like me who have profound hearing issues. Service is prompt and attentive here. We decided to share the hot pastrami on rye and the antipasto salad. As you can see from the pic the sandwich is ginormous. So good. The antipasto salad here is unlike any I've ever had in my 77 years! It is composed totally of Capicolla, Genoa, and cotto salami, pepperoni, provolone, Swiss and mozzarella cheese, green and black olives, and artichokes marinated in an Italian dressing. There is no lettuce as in all the antipasto salads I've had before. It is absolutely delicious. We were unable to finish our shared portions of the salad and took easily a whole half portion home to enjoy later. As I'm sure I've said before, there's a reason this store is always packed.
