Oldie but goodie! Definitely my favorite spot row hit up when I come back to town. I know everyone raves about the spaghetti pizza... it's good- but my favorite is the plain old pepperoni and sausage pizza. Heaven! Andddd DO NOT skip the bread and a side of sauce! read more

Ordered thier spaghetti and was very disappointed. It was bland tasting, the sauce was watered down, and the bread that was included was not very good. I can certainly make much better spaghetti at home read more

Angelo's is broken. The bread is broken. The sauce is watered down. I can't believe I'm even saying that about a place that's been part of Sterling /Rockfalls for 75+\- years. Somewhere along the way--especially over the last five years--somebody changed what didn't need changing. When did Angelo's bread get fluffy? When did the mostaccioli sauce become thin and wet? These were time-tested recipes that generations of people grew up knowing exactly how they were supposed to taste. If they're cutting corners because of the economy, I genuinely hope they get through it. But when they do, please go back to what worked. Angelo's didn't survive 75 years because it needed reinventing. I was born and raised in Sterling, and now I only get back once or twice a year. Angelo's used to be one of those places you HAD to hit when you came home. Right now, sadly, Angelo's is off my radar. Don't fix what was never broken. I can't believe I gave you three stars... read more

Rock Falls Angelo's is by far my favorite! A cozy little place with super friendly staff. The best tasting pizza comes from their oven. Go to Rock Falls and forget the other locations. read more

Good pizza. We had a large sausage & onion on the regular thin crust. Tasty & cheesy! We tried the thicker crust on a baby pepperoni because of reviews but it wasn't cooked enough. Because we ordered two pizzas we got a loaf of bread. So we'll have lots of leftovers & cook the crust more in our air fryer. read more

Angelo's Pizzeria - Kiddo eating the famed spaghetti pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Rock Falls, Illinois

Just your standard old way pizza place. The parking is free and plentiful. The service is ok at best but the food is usually good but from time to time it is lacking as well. We started out with one server and he was doing very well as in he was quick and thorough but it then transferred to others and the service declined as it went. Getting your food to go might be a good idea especially if you have a sensory sensitive person in your party as it can be rather loud in there. read more

Came to visit Illinois for the first time coming from sunny side AZ, and lots of people kept telling me to try Angelo's pizza, and I did I order one L cheese pizza with cheese bread came up to be 30$ and opening the box I thought wow looks good right ? Wrong , the bottom part of the pizza was just RAW looks like just the top part cooked, I ate about 2 slices before I couldn't eat anymore the taste literally taste like school pizza, I will say the cheese they used actually good and the cheese bread wasn't even nicely toasted, an hour went by and I throw up probably from eating raw dough, maybe because it's a small town you don't need to be proud of you're quality food you put out for people. read more

These guys try to make things nice, and they have a lot of goodwill, but there is something missing in there Italian cuisine. They need help from Without and they certainly need a better wine list to go with Italian food. They have no idea what Italian wines to pair with the food. read more

We are from spavinaw ok. you can not get this kind of food anywhere Angelo's is the bomb so so good I am 73 I have been eating here since I was a kid I may be a little partial,the owners were my cousins.I remember when they opened this little place the food was great then and still is there sandwiches are the best so authentic and the bread YUM! I hope this little Diamond in the ruff never close so KEEP ON COOKING. read more

I strongly recommend their delivery pizza, but most importantly, is the "PAN" version of the dough options. It's NOT that "too thick" kind of thing, it's truly just right, with rolled edges gently browned. In fact, I'm having trouble ordering anything but that now, that I've had it.... I love it !!! I also wanted to mention that this piazza doesn't need the extra cheese, their portion for the cheese option, is more than adequate, but I like my pizza to have lots of cheese !!! These folks do not disappoint!!! They have evenly placed toppings, timely delivery, and friendly folks, both in person and on the phone !!! I hope you find out what I'm talking about , enjoy !!! read more

We had a family gathering after a funeral and needed about 15 large pizzas. So glad we chose Angelo's. Talk about good comfort food. We got many different kinds of pizza, and every single one was tasty and hot. They got every part of the order correct. The bread sticks and dipping sauce were gobbled up, too. Definitely good food for a family gathering when you want something easy to serve, and good for all ages. Thanks, Angelo's. read more

Absolutely delicious pizza! They cook them well done too, the way pizza should be. Nice flavorful crunchy crust. Mouth-watering sauce. Nothing fancy, but no love it! read more

Well they have changed everything The pizza dough The sauce The amount of toppings And the PRICE JUST KEEPS GOING UP AND QUALITY GOES DOWN read more

Definitely the best pizza in the area. The pizza sauce is amazing. I always order extra with my spaghetti pizza. Always order more sausage with it too. Meat lovers is always a hit in the house and there bread can't be beat. If your passing through make sure to stop in rock falls and grab one there and one to go. Mario approved and Luigi loved. read more

Rock Falls Angelo's is usually the one to go to for the better service, food. Walked out last night during to the disgusting customer service, stood there for several minutes and was completely ignored they were not helping anyone, one was cleaning, customers come first, will be a very long time b4 I even think of going to any location again.... disgusting... glad you feel you don't need to wait on your customers... read more

Was given 30 minutes for delivery, showed up 40 minutes later, was told they forgot to enter my order, another 30 minutes got my pizza. Went home only to find a burnt pizza with minimal sauce. Tombstone style $4, Angelos style $25. Been a loyal customer but the buck stops here! read more

Our first time having dinner here. We had spaghetti and meatballs.... it came with FRESH BAKED DELICIOUS french bread. We each ordered a small, and the portions were huge.... it really was good.

Angelo's Pizzeria - Delicious spaghetti n meatballs with 14" loaf of fresh baked French bread @ #Angelo' s ,Sterling Illinois. For less than $8 ? - Pizza Near Me - Rock Falls, Illinois

Referred to this place from someone who used to live there. Must be it's changed? The service was atrocious. Granted it's a small place and did t expect much but we waited forever to order while waitresses did nothing. We even received uncomfortable looks from some employees as they noticed we sat there forever. Once we ordered our drinks took forever and were never refilled. The pizza... the crust was still raw. Dough taste and not even cut all the way through because it was doughy. To top it off it had burnt spots???? The toppings were ok but the quality was definitely lacking. Bland sausage and bland pepperoni. We ordered extra sauce and it had very little sauce. I can't say I'd ever go back or recommend the place to anyone. read more

Terrible customer service. Did not get all my order. Called to get Refund food not delivered, delivery charge and tip. Was put on hold was on hold for around 22 minutes then got disconnected. Called back manager stated would only refund $10.00 no refund on tip. I asked for her bosses name and she said Wayne". I asked Wayne what ? She said no "Ed". I replied you not know your bosses name. Asked for Ed last name she said "goodbye" and hung up on me. The total number of calls I had to make to was 47 mins. As each time I had to call over and over until I got through. 28 total calls. yes i raised my voice and said F**** a couple of times but I had already spent 20 some minutes to get through and then was hung up on. I bet a lot of people plus those who work at Angelo's would be upset about being on hold and being disconnected. \ I am going to tell everyone to go to A&L's instead. read more

Pop Quiz; Can someone identify the country of origin for this "Italian" sub? Also, in this particular area, are meatball subs typically open face? read more

Angelo's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Rock Falls, Illinois

The food here really isn't that good. The customer service is no great either. There are many other pizza places that have better pizza for a fraction of the price. They charge you for pizza like you are living in the middle of Chicago. read more

Very glad to see Rock falls Angelo's back open. Called in an order and it was actually correct. The pizza was picture perfect and the taste was amazing. I will never order from the sterling locations ever again. They always get something wrong whether forgetting the bread that was ordered or the pie actually being under cooked and soggy. My suggestion is to get the rock falls staff to show sterling how it is done, right. Thank you rock falls Angelo's we missed you dearly read more

I grew up in the area and grew up eating Angelo's Pizza. Having travelled far and wide this is still the best pizza I've had anywhere. Whenever I travel back home to visit the family a pizza from Angelo's is mandatory. Me and my parents always prefer "the special." It's a great thin crust, cheese, sauce, pepperoni, hamburger, tomatoes, black olives and I don't know what all. It's my favorite thing to eat on this planet. My sister and her family love the spaghetti pizza, and that's pretty tasty, too. Angelo's also has really great spaghetti with tangy sauce and big, awesome meatballs. The Italian Hamburger is also great, and I like mine with jalapeño peppers. The Rock Falls location has the best pizza because of the old-style ovens and is the best place for carry-out. The Sterling location is a better set-down venue and has a space for group events. read more

This place USED to be great! Now it's disgusting. Go to the one is sterling. The last two times I've been that have been unacceptable. I've found hair in my food the last two times and also the cheese tastes off and my stomach feels queasy. I gave it another try but it's just too awful to bear. Also, the soda is flat and the staff do not have good cleaning habits! I saw a cook grab salad toppings with his hands, say "what I'm I doing, I need gloves", he threw the toppings BACK INTO THE CONTAINER, put on gloves, then proceeded to put the toppings on the pizza. Another woman took a disgusting looking rag, cleaned off the disgusting looking counter, then she packaged some bread for a to go order! Another employee made change for a customer then grabbed silverware and placed it on a table. Do not eat here, you will get sick! read more

If you are like us and driving along I-88 you should drop by this small pizza place. It is cheap and delicious and not very far off of the highway. We did on a rainy Sunday and were greeted by super friendly staff (Teresa our server was especially great. Perfect service even) and even better food. After speaking with Teresa we got sold on trying some bread with their marinara sauce as an appetizer. The bread was soft and doughy and the sauce was a perfect compliment. If it is what goes on the lasagna and spaghetti than I can safely say both are damn good. We had an XL pizza with sausage, bell peppers, pepperoni and black olives and it was delicious. Bottom Line: we had a great meal and experience in a small town pizza place that seems to be well loved by the locals. We understand why. read more

Angelo's has held a nearly legendary mysticism in my mind since the last time I enjoyed it, circa 2005. I'm so pleased to say that the pizza remains the undisputed champion in my personal world of pizzadom. The cheese is perfectly browned, the sauce is rich and sweet at the same time. The crust is firm and bouncy in the middle, perfectly crisp on the edges...it's as if the cheese caramelizes around the edges. I've only ever had sausage and mushroom as toppings, because they're pure perfection. The sausage is robustly flavored, and the mushrooms appear to be from a can. You may think that's a negative, but it's not. The earthy, chewy, and firm texture just...works. I've never had a better pizza. The spaghetti, Italian hamburger, and bread are all excellent as well. read more

Angelo's Pizzeria - Large sausage and mushroom pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Rock Falls, Illinois

Every time I stop into my hometown, I Have to get an Angelo's special pizza. If I lived a lot closer, I would drive to Rock Falls often to get the pizza I long for. You cannot get a pizza close to what Angelo's has been doing since I was a young child in the 60's. The restaurant has limited seating, but we alway get carry out. The Angelo's special pizza has chunks, and I mean chunks of sausage on the pie with onion, pepper, tomatoes and pepperoni. The cheese is always consistent. read more

Angelo's Pizzeria - Angelo's Special. Just Awesome! - Pizza Near Me - Rock Falls, Illinois

Foods good, but I prefer the Angelos in Sterling. The rock falls location is small, and in my opinion not quite as tasty as the Sterling location. Still very good though! read more

Amazing pizza, pastas and sandwiches. Service is good. This place is a national treasure.

I don't even know how to review an iconic institution like this. For more years than I've been alive this place has consistently churned out pizza that has never wavered in flavor or quality. If you haven't been here, maybe you don't deserve it. I want to keep coming back and if too many people start coming it will change, so please, stay away f you haven't been here before. read more

Been loyal customer after Perna's demise. But tonight may make me leave. Ordered large special-no tamato add banana peppers. What I got was a tomato pizza no banana peppers and some sort of attempt at a special but almost no sauce. Pizza blahh and bland. Almost no crust, and it was blahhh also. They gave me $2.00 back and a cup of peppers that they too were not crisp but wilty and soft. For a $22.50 pizza it should be exceptional instead was disappointing. Would say was thier worst effort yet to date. read more

Unless you grew up in Sterling, and this is your comfort food, this place is terrible. While the spaghetti pizza is unique, it's the only thing on the menu that isn't terrible. If they didn't serve alcohol they would have been out of business long ago. read more

Wow. Great place for large portions and cheap Prices. Baby size spaghetti is 3 pounds and baby size pizza is larger than a frozen pizza. A baby rhino would not be able to finish. I have never left a restaurant with that many leftovers. I have my groceries for the week. Also you don't just get a few slices of bread for the table.... You get a whole loaf ( larger than a foot). Weird smell from years of boiling spaghetti sauce... But cleanliness was definitely there. read more

If I could give this place a zero I would. We are from out of town and I had pizza delivered to our hotel. Waited an hour and a half for pizza. Once we finally got it, it was cold and like chewing on a piece of leather. I would not recommend this place to anybody! read more
