User Reviews of Langolo Ristorante

Yelp.com Review - by Mauro D.

5.0 of 5 stars. It doesn't get any better than this. Ask for the artichokes for an apetizer, they aren't listed on the menu!

Yelp.com Review - by Lauren Q.

5.0 of 5 stars. L'Angolo is small, cramped, loud, delicious, affordable, and totally charming. As a frugal foodie/alcoholic who's lived on the Italian Market for four years and counting, I would have to say that...

A genuine treasure among South Philadelphia BYOBs

I have been going to L'Angolo off and on since it opened (I was a weekly regular for lunch, which, sadly, is no more). Over that time there have been a number of changes in the kitchen, and I think the current...

Yelp.com Review - by Ellen O.

5.0 of 5 stars. I tend to not go out for Italian food, because in my mind, I just think of Italian food being pasta. "I can make pasta at home!" I stubbornly claim, and I CAN. However, I CAN'T prepare fish,...

Yelp.com Review - by Tom G.

4.0 of 5 stars. I can't believe I never reviewed L'Angolo (translates roughly as "The Corner"...fitting as it is on a corner). The place is tiny, you walk through the kitchen to get to the ultra cramped tables,...

Great Italian by Christa C. at InsiderPages

This small BYOB in South Philly has really notable food and is not your typical South Philly restuarant. Try the specials - every dish is good. The only complaint I could image anyone having is that overall,...
