If you are an EddienChooch social media follower you might have seen owner, Angelo give a shout out to PCF in honor of Chooch passing and donated a funeral pizza to Dog Alley doggy care where Chooch went for his own little vacations while Eddie and Fam were away. I knew I was coming to Philly for work so I messaged Angelo to see if there a Chooch pizza and cheesteak and Angelo wrote back and said no but the fact he answered made me want to come more so made it a point to come and give them some business. I got there just before the storms hit. Staff was real nice and i decided on the Carla because I have noticed that sweet and hot peppers are a thing, just not on cheesesteaks but on pizzas. Their menu is not overwhelming and love how they offer pizzas other than with the traditional red sauce. There are 3 options for white. sauce. The pizza is made when you order and it place in an oven to bake and not through some high degree conveyer belt. It came out quick and then just as I was about to head out catch an Lyft it started to down pour. Staff suggested I eat there, but I had somewhere to be by 6. Got back the hotel and chowed down. I'm not a big thin (what I consider to be thin) crust but this was just right and the flavor of the pizza was excellent, not too cheesy over saucy and the hot honey and whole hot pepper made great touch. I couldn't eat the whole thing in one sitting, so i put the left overs in the refrigerator and I ate the rest on my flights home. Go give this small business your business when you are there.
Good pizza shop with options to BYOB. They only offer slices during the week but their 12 inch pie is small enough for a hungry person to devour if need be. I ordered the Carson which comes with fresh portobello mushrooms and vidalia onions on a garlic butter aioli which all paired perfectly. This is a BYOB establishment so think about what your prefect bev would be and bring it along. Anthony was very knowledgeable and helped me solidify my choice and answered all my questions. We also ordered their pepperoni which is actually soppressata and although I didn't try the meat, the red sauce and cheese was great as well. This is a must stop when in Philly
Ordered the Paulie and the Vinny. Extremely good pizza both pizza's are at least a 8/10. Staff and workers were very kind and helpful. Would go again
This is a great pizza venue that represents Philly well. Their pizzas are fresh and made to order. The staff is helpful with providing recommendations and taking orders. Our pizza did not take too long to make considering we were walk-ins. The location is in a lively part of the city, but lacks indoor seating. We managed to get a table outside their front door. But it was August and indoor seating with a/c would have been nice.
Was able to get parking right out front at lunchtime and the place is clean, bright and cozy. The host was gracious and helpful. The food was exactly what we were wanting and the portion for two with a light to medium appetite was perfect at 12". The taste amazing - from the toppings to the beautifully crisped edges. Recommend if you're in the area.
Very good! I got a small pepperoni (soppressata), it was exactly what I wanted for a a coal fire/brick oven type of pizza. Very crispy, and a unique (delicious) taste from the sauce and cheese. It's a little pricey, but what I expected for the location. Only thing would've made it better is a fountain soda. I want to try it with ricotta next time.
Cool little pizza shop, no frills just pizza! Can create your own or order from menu. Pepperoni is large and thinly sliced. Pesto was AMAZING, best part of the pizza!
I can only speak about the delivery I received. The pizza had quality ingredients, but I'm not a fan of the burnt crust (even though I know it's the style). I do love how you can create your pizza, and if you need more options, don't worry--they have a bunch of shop creations on the menu. From what I recall, they are cash only unless you're ordering through a delivery service. Great spot just wish the pizzas were larger for the price!
FOOD ~Fresh I came in around 12:30 p.m. and ordered the Angelo Pizza, which is basically the classic cheese. The cheese had a good pull and had good browning. The sauce was tangy and flavorful, and I wish there was more of it. The crust crisped up nicely at the rims and the base, and I think there's a brushing of garlic/Italian seasoning oil atop the pie, which added a punch of flavor. Keep in mind that if you are ordering fresh, there is a wait time of at least 15-20 minutes. There was only one other customer when I came in, and I waited about 18 minutes to receive my order, so if it's busy, I would imagine the wait time to be about 30+ minutes. ~Frozen The restaurant sells frozen pizzas of their classic Angelo Pizza at the same cost as their fresh pie ($16.00). DRINKS Bottled drinks are available at the register. AMBIANCE The interior is clean and modern. There are a couple of tables lining the walls of the store and some counter seating at the front. SERVICE The staff here is kind and friendly. The owner actively participates as a cashier and makes pizzas alongside his staff while simultaneously striking up conversations with his customers, so it's quite a cozy atmosphere. The place is an attraction due to the Barstool pizza review, and customers often ask about it. PARKING Street parking is available at a limited capacity.
Amazing Pizza every time.... Bring cash or an ATM card as they don't take credit or debit card. This time it was raining cats and dogs when we went but there was still a long line though they move things right along. What makes this Pizza so good is the melt in your mouth cheese and crispy crust. Always a favorite. Be prepared to picnic in your car as this is one pie that is best served hot out of the oven

Angelo's was in the building making the pie's! He's very professional, welcoming and has followed in his Dad's footsteps! Talk to him and he'll take you on a journey through his pizza making. I have to say this his pizza rivals NYC pizza! Yea it is that good! The options are amazing and you can customize of course. The pizzeria is ina great location, the pizza is tasty and everyone should visit here if you want pizza. Pizza doesn't suck in Philly anymore because The Angelo's Pizza is here!! Don't get this mixed up with those other Angelo's pizza places in Philly they are not the same!! Would I visit again! Absolutely!! read more

Bangin'! This place has been on my list for quite a while, finally had an opportunity to stop in. Family and I ordered ahead on the Slice app-if you're a pizza lover and don't have the app, I recommend you get it. This is in a busy street in the city, so be prepared to spend some time looking for parking, if you're driving-though there are plenty of garages around. Outside and inside were clean, and they were fairly busy, but we were greeted within 30 seconds. Seemed that only two people were staffing the place, Angelo and a team member, but they were doing a fine job taking care of business. We ordered a large The Angelo, and a regular Big Ang-both were very good and I couldn't decide which I liked better. The winner wasn't decided in my group either, ended up a 2-2 tie. I would definitely return, and if scoring out of ten, I'd say 8.3. Really good pizza. read more

This is going to be a review that will spiral out of control quickly. Each of the 6 slices from this 12 inch pie made me think differently of this pie that I still do not know what to think of it. One thing is for sure, it is not the best tasting pizza I have ever had. Slice #1 This is an excellent pizza! Wow! There is hope for other pizza outside of New York and New Haven. Delicious cheese, blush sauce, nice herbs. Crust has a nice crisp to chew, this is going to be awesome! Slice #2 Whoa. Slow down there big guy. Where did that sweet acidity from the sauce come from? And how come this slice has too many herbs. And what the heck with this crust? It fell apart after one bite! Slice #3 Okay, back on track, a bit. This one seemed to have some melty herbs. Sauce starts to regain slice #1's taste and texture. It appears that was just a false pretense for what came next. The cheese literally slides off the slice as I took one bite. This became a mess very quickly. Napkins start appearing and being used now. Slice #4 Rock bottom. Everything went wrong on this slice. The sauce too sweet, the crust too burnt or too undercooked. Cheese literally fell off the slice while holding the slice. Now it is sweet sauce and disintegrated bread. All hopes of salvaging any cheese on this slice have failed. Might as well fire off one of my flares from my flare gun and see if anything can come of it. Slice #5 Recovery commences. The cheese on this slice manages to stay on, the sauce recomposes and starts the rebuilding process. The crust continues to be stubborn and break away too soon. Alas, baby steps towards a successful failure. Slice #6 Angelo's finest hour. Albeit battered and bruised, the pizza manages to pull itself together for a successful last slice. Everything works. Perfect rations of cheese, which all stayed on, the sauce makes a full recovery, the crust is retained throughout each bite, and the herbs stand down while acting by doing nothing crazy at all. The pie makes it through the journey battered and bruised, but makes it through nonetheless. It will make you feel high one minute, the next, you will think that it belongs in the trash. It will want you wanting more, only for you to be disappointed when it does not deliver. Appearances are sharp; but inside comes a conundrum so deep it can not be resolved in this review. It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. read more

In the green room yesterday there was pizza, it was alright, pretty typical but convenient and easy to eat while working. I mentioned how good the Pizza at THE ANGELO PIZZA in Old City was to the person I am assigned to this weekend and they sounds good so today they say, hey go get some great pizza you mentioned, I said how do you like your pizza, he said you speak so highly of it, get it how you like it. I made sure he had no food restrictions and bolted down to The Angelo Pizza, So I quickly went to Old City and ordered my regular, in large because I'm sharing, red sauce, sweet Italian sausage, vidalia onions and black olives. The staff always accommodating and friendly and of course the ball game is on even though Angelo was off today. My pizza was made fresh to order, they only use the highest quality ingredients, from the sauce to the sausage to the onions, the absolute best, one of their differences in it being unlike other pizza shops is the type of tomatoes in their sauce. In hopes of seeing Vinnies head spin I asked if pineapple may be an option soon, I know that's a forbidden item in this shop, however my Hawaiian connection does appreciate it on normal pizza. This, is not normal pizza, it's simply the best there is regardless of what style pizza you like. It may not be what your go to pizza is but if you have an interest in gourmet food, and appreciating every ingredient and what it brings to the pie. Then you can't not try it. I travel extensively and no matter where I am I can't have pizza without thinking about this place and their dedication to the art of making great pizza. The dedication runs deep, the namesake owner, his name is ANGELO PIZZA. Give it a try and tell them Jerry sent you. With all the celebrities and sports stars I have referred there, you never know who you might see. Enjoy! read more

Clean, friendly and quick service, very good pizza. We had the Vinny pizza which had the perfect amount of cheese and sauce, not too heavy on either, and the crust is crispy and delicious. They have some N.A. drinks for sale and are BYOB, with four or five small tables for dining in. read more

Firstly, the pizza was awesome. We had a 18" 1/2 "The Vinny," and,1/2 "The Clara". The vodka sauce on "The Vinny" was awesome. Loved the extra spice and "bite" of the peppers on "The Clara." Special shout out to Vinny (the owner) and his crew. Super friendly guys, fun to chat with, especially about baseball (despite the fact that he's a NYY fan!). Special mention to Vinny.....we got back late from the LAD-PHL basbeball game (about 1115) and my 15 year old (OK me too) was starving. Not a lot of options at that time. I walked down to The Angelo, and they had closed 15 minutes before. Damn! As I was walking away, Vinny, who was prepping dough for the next day, waved me back. Turns out he had just made a cheeses pizza for someone who didn't pick it up. Grabbed a couple ice cold drinks from the fridge and gratefully headed home with a hot pizza. Plain cheese pizza has never tasted so good!!! Thanks, Vinny & crew! See you next visit! read more

It's nice to try a new pizza place! The Angelo Pizza hit the spot on a cool Friday in February. I came here with my coworker after reading about the opening a few weeks ago and had wanted to try them out. They only have a limited number of pizzas a day. Their straight to the point menu has the descriptions of each pizza offered, and there's no substitutions allowed. They also only sell the pizza and drinks - nothing else. The pizzas are pretty much a personal size 12" cut into six pieces. Our Angelo (plain cheese) and Carson (white with mushroom and onion) hit the spot. Super crunchy crust would have been better if we were allowed to eat in the small facility, but the flavors of the sauce (had some bite) and cheese were excellent. Not our favorite, but definitely not the worst. It'd be worth another trip to try some of the meat pizzas. I'm more than happy to support our local non-chain businesses. About $29 for the two pizzas. read more

The Angelo Pizza has some pretty good pizzas that beat most in terms of flavor. We ordered a 12-inch Angelo Pizza which is just cheese for around ($18). The flavor is actually pretty good. It might be oily for some (or greasy), but that oil is where all the flavor comes from. Whatever garlic or herb seasoning they use on this pizza is phenomenal. The pizza is thin, and it's packed with a ton of flavor for how small it is. The inside is pretty nice, and the history of this place is pretty cool too. Overall, I'd definitely go back to have some more. Is it a bit pricey? Sure. But does it taste great! Yes! read more

Stopped in to grab a slice however, this is not your grab a big ass slice kinda place at all. It's more of a personal shove the whole pie in your face kinda place. The serving size is slightly larger than a personal pie so yes, you could eat a whole one yourself. This should have been a 4 star review. Had the complimentary cherry pepper been edible rather than there for show, and if the crust had held up in the middle, it would have been a solid 4. That wasn't the case so it became wasted garnish and droopy, soggy tip. (That's what she said) you know that first bite is everything He's the new the kid on the block, perched on the less traveled side of Market st in Old City, yet creating quite the social media buzz and walk-in / pickup business . Could The Angelo Pizza become a destination for Philly Pizza? I totally think so especially if this is just the beginning of their journey into the food scene. Social media and marketing prowess aside, it's about the pizza. cheese to sauce ration was good taste and chew of outer crust was delish Quality cheese - nice melt Meatballs were outstanding All homemade from scratch The meatball pie will bring me back for another round. Wish Yelp had half stars! Will update my review if the droopy tip was a one off. Ps. The owner's last name is Pizza, that alone sets the bar high. Marketing capability alone. Update: I originally wanted to give a 3.5 but sadly Yelp does not have half ratings. After some thinking I think everyone agrees that opening a restaurant during a pandemic takes balls and I'm sure they will work out the kinks as time goes on. read more
I had the weekly special "Crab Sauce" pizza and it was phenomenal! I saw their IG story about this pizza which was really cool and showed the entire process from live crabs to fresh, hot pizza. I need to try other items, but what I had was really really good read more

Looking at the photos the crust is burnt often?
What hours are u open?
Current hours below. They opened in the pandemic, so these could evolve. Check their website or instagram for the latest: https://www.instagram.com/theangelopizza/…
Do any delivery services (GrubHub etc) deliver The Angelo's Pizza? I live in Chestnut Hill and have to try this pizza!
My short answer is no. They definitely are not partnered with any and I imagine it'd be clunky/not worth it for them to try
