Angelina's

[miramargal]

Ok, you wonderful locals, I've got a question. I'll be down in Seagrove, staying right next to Angelina's, in a couple of weeks. After a long drive, I'd like to just walk over the Angelina's and get a pizza the first night. How are they? I'm crazy about Spicy Noodle, but after a long trip from Louisiana, those last few miles to the Noodle might be more than my son can take.

I think the pizzas are very good there - probably the best food on the menu. I like Angelina's food okay - it's a fun family place - but wouldn't be my choice - overall - unless I was very hungry and didn't want to drive far. in this case, it's a great place to have close by...

good cheese pizza

Thanks for the replies. I'm conflicted now. I know we won't want pizza twice and I know we love the Noodle. Would you say one is better than the other (Spicy Noodle or Angelinas)? Also, what else (not necessarily pizza) would be in that immediate vincinity that we could walk and pick it up and bring it back to the lazy boy in the condo?

Cocoon's is good and located just down the street, but closes around 8 or 9.

Best pizza in town is at Amore's in Gulf Place. :D we've also really enjoyed pizza from Gravel Road and Cafe Spiazza. Amore is the closest thing to pizza Italia though...

Angelina's pizza is thinner crust, less cheese, and more traditional topping combinations than Amore. Personally, I like it better than Amore, even though that's not in line with popular sentiment here at SoWal.com. Whatever floats your boat...

The pastas vary. The regular spaghetti with meat sauce is good, as is the seafood Fra Diavolo. I haven't had the sandwiches.

They are very popular this time of year. If you want to eat in for dinner, be prepared for a wait, especially weekends.

I call in takeout until school starts. They are quite prompt with that - I rarely have to wait more than 5-10 minutes, even though I just call it in and hop in the car to drive the mile or so from Eastern Lake.

Count me as a happy customer.

You guys are great. I really appreciate all the feedback. I can't wait to get down there.

I've heard people say they LOVE the pizza at Angelina's. I've personally never had it. I've tried many other entrees there though - salads are very good, but the rest is very disappointing to this Italian food lover (mediocrity at best). But, we still go there on occasion just for the fun of it with kids.

Tootsie, I have to say that's my opinion of more than a few restaurants in SoWal. We go out to eat at the beach because someone else is cooking for us, for the atmosphere, for the fun of it...not because we expect an excellent meal at a excellent price. But that's okay. Three out of four ain't bad. :cool:

If you go to Angelina's, watch out for the old toothpick in the salad trick. (actual experience- which has turned me off from visiting Angelina's again. No apology given, and they didn't seem to give a hoot.)

Damn, SJ...I felt your pain all the way over here! (I hope it wasn't used :shock: )

Damn, SJ...I felt your pain all the way over here! (I hope it wasn't used :shock: )That was the fear.

I should also note, I hear many people enjoy Angelina's without toothpicks.

Fiber, Joe. Think of it as fiber.:eek:

you do speak the truth Mer! we do have our favorites, a few with excellent food, and several with funn atmosphere, and pricing is almost always up there -compared to other really outstanding restaurants in bigger cities... but, hey, we now have Italian and Mexican and Thai food, and even bad Chinese! WE didn't have those choices 10 years ago.

A very good source whom we know and love says you have to drive up to Freeport to get yummy food at a yummy price. I can do that much better than fancy food at a fancy price. ;-)

DITTO :biggrin: We usually always get Pizza here the first night so we can relax on the deck and get to the beach for sunset

Cocoons......yum! One of the places we make a point to visit at least once every trip! :clap_1: Sometimes the visits are daily:) ;-)

[miramargal]

Did I see that Cocoon's is for sale? If so, as it affected the quality? I think I'm gonna check it out when we're down there.

Ditto. Ain't the best place in my opinion.

I second that...we ate there this spring and it wasn't our favorite.

This probably should be a new thread but since we're talking pizza...if you're staying near Sandestin, Dune Allen, Santa Rosa, BMB we found that Jordano's Pizza was AWESOME! :clap_1: While stocking up at the Grande Blvd. Publix we asked someone where we could pick up some pizzas and they recommended Jordano's. It's maybe a mile west of Publix and we loved it. So if you're going shopping and want pizza for dinner call when you're in line at Publix and go pick it up. Yummy!

[miramargal]

Thanks for the tip on Jordano's. I've been seeing it for years now and never stopped in. We might have to consider that.

Hope you like it. Everyone in my family enjoyed it...even the reheated leftovers for lunch! ;-)
