Angelo's of Burien

Never been to this local institution, though my wife's family was very familiar with. Generally we hit up the Italian place down the street and honestly I like that one a little better. Easy 4 Star rating. Everyone's meals looked great, tasted great, and the amount of spaghetti my wife got was a lot - like A LOT! My in-laws Puttanesca was 2/3's my wife's offering. All three were enjoyed. My meal - a large house pizza was meh! at best. Not bad, but not memorable. Premade crust was okay, seemed light on the meats, and really was just okay.

October 18th @ 12pm Angelo’s of Burien was the perfect venue for one of my coworker’s retirement parties. With around 30 guests, the staff managed our large group with exceptional service and organization. The restaurant was immaculate, comfortable, and beautifully set up to celebrate our special occasion. The pasta was an absolute delight, bursting with rich, authentic Italian flavors. The warm, freshly baked bread was irresistible, and we couldn’t resist asking for seconds. Every dish arrived perfectly cooked, showcasing the quality and care that went into each preparation. The service was friendly, attentive, and professional, making the entire evening feel effortless and enjoyable. Angelo’s truly made this memorable occasion even more special. I highly recommend this place for any group gathering or simply for a delightful Italian meal.

Angelo's is a gem. My daughter loves the salad, and my son can't get enough of the bread. Our go-to dishes are the seafood cannelloni and Roquefort steak. The red wine reduction on the steak is "chef's kiss"! It's the best steak I've ever eaten, and I've eaten a lot of places. Whether you're looking for a great Sunday night dinner, or celebrating something special, Angelo's is the perfect spot. The staff is attentive and delightful. Can't say enough good things about this restaurant.

Sometimes you go to a long-standing local place and find a treasure... Sometimes you find a place that people just go to as a tradition. This is the latter. I tried the Italian Pot Roast...I was really looking forward to a homey meal.. Too little pasta with sauce served on the side... Instead of potentially sopping up the gravy with my pasta it had red sauce. They didn't ask if I'd want it plain. This was odd to me. The dish was salty and I didn't get any love from it. Even the spumoni was lackluster... Which was surprising. Neither the food or service impressed me here. Servers barely spoke to me, even when I asked questions. For an old school Italian American place I'd rather go to Vince's down the street. It was busy here though... So Burien appreciates this place.

Loved the atmosphere and food. Wonderful staff too!

We had our Sam8 club Christmas party here. Irma took great care of us. It was a fairly large group. She was pleasant, organized and always checking back and making sure we had everything we needed and that our beverages were fresh. Our chef, Alex, created dishes that were flavorful and served hot. Thank you for making our event a success.

1 st time eating here. Great food and staff. We had a great talk with a server that has worked there for 16 years now

I had never been here before, but a friend who has been going here with his family since he was a child brought me here. From the moment you step inside the place, it smells amazing! The brucshetta was absolutely perfect, and the lamb shank fell off the bone and melted in your mouth. The orechiette I could tell was made that day, and the sauce was just 🤌🏻. It's easily one of the best Italian restaurants I've eaten at in Seattle, and I will definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for top-tier Italian food.

Decent Italian American spot. The bruschetta is the winner for sure in the appetizers. Food is okay and the menu could use an update. The staff are amazing and friendly and really make your visit special. We've been here twice and enjoyed both times.

This restaurant is a strong 2.5. But I'm rounding up because it's clearly a beloved family favorite with lots of regulars and good service. Food: I ordered the chicken Parm. It looked appetizing, but the chicken tasted like a mystery meat. It had an odd texture that did not resemble a piece of checked. The flavors of the dish were on the simplistic, bland side. The salad was a basic salad blend. I got the Italian dressing. Again, just okay. In all, the food wasn't terrible, but if you're looking for good quality Italian food, I would not recommend eating here. The restaurant has a local restaurant feel that's been around a while, and they have a clear customer base that patronizes the establishment. The service was very prompt and our waiters were kind and helpful.

The bartender Brad was friendly and accommodating, and that was the best part. The food is definitely not Italian. There was nothing very appealing on the menu so I thought it would be safe to order the prawns. The description says sautéed with garlic, but nothing was sautéed at all. It was boiled vegetables and overcooked boiled shrimp. Completely tasteless. Whenever I see feta cheese on what is supposed to be an Italian menu, I know they are not Italian, but Greek.

Great little place in Burien. This has been here for years and I'm ashamed to say it's probably been 15 years since I've been here. Service was very quick. I sat down and basically ordered. I did not realize my huge entree also came with a salad and a side order of pasta. My friend recommended the the Veal Phillipo so I went with that since I didn't want to hold up the server. The serving was huge. The cream sauce was a bit bland but nothing salt couldn't fix. Over all great lunch with my friend! Will have to remember to visit here more often than every decade.

Recommended by a long time resident. Arrived about 7:15PM on Monday and seated right away. My wife had a glass of house chardonnay and it was a generous pour of decent wine for $9. I had a Peroni in a bottle and was disappointed that there was no draft beer. We ordered the antipasto for 2 ($4 each person) and it was very good. Nobody around here sells it that way, by the person. We enjoyed it but when dinner came, we knew we had ordered too much. Dinner came with a nice house salad included, not exceptional but easily $8 extra almost anywhere else. They brought toasted Italian bread slices and when dinner arrived, we got a second plate without requesting it. The veal Marsala was thinly sliced and a generous portion and came with a side of pene pasta with cheese. The Marsala sauce was as good as I have had anywhere. My wife got the seafood cannelloni and it was creamy and delicious. A similar dish in other restaurants in the area would be at least 50% more. The whole check including the antipasto and 2 drinks was $75 before tip, a screaming deal anywhere in our area. We will definitely be back.

We finally decided to try Angelo's of Burien. Having no windows to the outside made us a bit wary but one day I decided just to stick my head in. The place was packed! Hmmm...it's been here 50+ years, family owned, and has a following...So next day we tried it! Angelo's is a good deal! I ordered the house wine and the chicken Parm. And mozzarella appetizer. Anne ordered the Cod fish. I got a side of pesto linguini. I asked for spaghetti but the waiter forgot. Other than that, the service was very good (Pesto wasn't really one of the options so I got 50% special service) Everything tasted pretty good. Especially the Cod. The Cod and chicken Parm was cooked perfectly. You don't know how many restaurants overcook their chicken Parm! The tomato sauce was 8/10 not spectacular but perfectly good. The mozzarella was just OK. Wish they used a higher quality and just charged more. The house red, Montepulciano was so/so but I ordered a glass of the MOST expensive red for $13 (or $14?) and it was GREAT! Oh, and the garlic bread was very good and they say unlimited! I noticed there are LOTS of Steak options on the menu so next time I'll try one! I noticed lots of large family tables. Great option for family dinners if you want to eat GOOD but don't want to break the bank! I'll be back!

Had a lovely birthday dinner here. The service was perfect and our table was quiet and cozy. We had the lasagna and the seafood cannelloni. Both were delicious. The prices were reasonable considering today's food prices, each dish was $23. They came with bread and salad and were very filling. This family has put its heart and soul into this restaurant for 3 generations.

We decided to go to Angelo's again tonight. Surprisingly to us we were seated at the same table. A table of ten came shortly after 5pm and were quite loud as if no one else in the restaurant. Tonight I had chicken parmigiana. it comes with salad pasta and bread. It was really good. They have a wonderful red sauce. The portion very nice for $23.00. The server was wonderful too. Young energetic lady!

My family and I were there on Monday night, we go to Angelo's at least 2-3 times a month. Food was fantastic per usual. The service was not even sub par, server was curt, short and rude. We were never checked back on after our entrees, not asked if we need anything else when food was delivered. It was just not our table that she was rude too, I understand that folks have a bad day but this was unacceptable. We hope this was a one off but will definitely rethink about going back.

A favorite family restaurant. We have been to this place several times! The Italian food is out of this world! My husband's fav is the Veal Picatta and my favorite is the Ravioli. We always enjoyed the great service even if we didn't make a reservation they always found us a seat. This is one of the best Italian restaurants in town!

I only got takeout but the pasta was swimming in water and everything lacked flavor. A few spices would help.

Family oriented restaurant! If you haven't been to Angelo's you should. Everything on their menu is great. All the staff there are great and funny. We always find the time to make there for a pizza and/or main entree.

Always a good meal here. Can't complain. Bread is delicious and salad dressings are homemade. Give this place a shot. It's a bit dark inside and can get noisy at busy times but it's quaint and family friendly. Service is good and they check in when needed.

Ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo for takeout and found a hair in my food. Then, I got food poisoning later that night. Based on this first-time experience at Angelo's, I definitely would not return.

Always good food but the bartender needs a good talking to just because people don't drink in the bar doesn't mean you should treat them any different as if they don't matter this has happened the last two times very disappointing...

This is home style food that is still sort of a neighborhood place. It's definitely dated inside and if you aren't into fancy, it can be okay. I had some good old spaghetti and meatballs that was large and could have been two dinners. Even at that, it was reasonably priced. For whatever reason, a couple of us got heckled in the parking lot when we left. Not the fault of the restaurant, but it didn't make me what to come back.

I love this place! We have been coming here for YEARS, the first time I came was over 30 years ago! It has always been solid, great service, good food, nice environment. My husband came with me when I moved back to the area, and he loves it now, too!

My wife and I usually come here once a year for our anniversary. In the past we have always had a great experience. We ordered a drink, bruschetta appetizer, dinner salad, and chicken parm. The server brought out our chicken parm. It was served with noodles and red sauce. Our meals were cold and the sauce tasted like it was from a can. The bruschetta never came. I was patient and waited for my waiter for about 30 minutes and the server never checked on us. My wife and I decided to eat our meal as we had a show to get to. 45 minutes later and still no server. I got up and asked for my check at the desk and returned to my table. The server finally arrived with my check. When I told him he never brought the bruschetta, he told me it was ok as he didn't charge me for it. He could not have cared less about our experience. We will not be back. Sad because it was always solid.

Angela is like going to your grandma's house for dinner. I love their pizza, the garlic bread in their house. Salad is delicious. I find myself wanting to go at least once a week. I love the bar it's very nostalgic.

This was our first time visiting and it was a fabulous experience. It was busy but we were seated fast! Our drinks and salad were served quick as well. Before we could finish our salads our perfectly cooked steaks were brought out. Our main server was Patty and she lived up to all her good reviews!! Everyone else that assisted was awesome too. We'll definitely be back! *ordered broiled steaks one with fettuccine and one with penne & red sauce *house salad with Cesar dressing *rocky road dessert All perfection especially the tender steak and rocky road dessert !!! Can't wait to come back.

Food is good, prices don't match. Enjoyed my time there but at that price I would choice a different option. My check was 50+ for just myself.

Not Italian! Can't blame the servers, only the owners like most restaurants in the US that claim to be Italian. It's low end crap. They don't have a clue about Bolognese. If you order it it's with Spaghetti and they ask if you want a Meatball. First of all Bolognese is a Meat based sauce with Beef, Pork, and Veal. Very little tomato product, usually served with Papparedelle or Rigatoni. Never ever served with spaghetti because it's not from that region. Dressed in a pseudo Italian interior of cheap junk. Seriously, buy a can of Chefboyrdi!

YUM!! Oh Angelo's, I hadn't visited in over 10 years and they were just as delicious as I remembered. Incredible service, fresh salads, and the most incredible pasta dishes I've had. A house salad with half & half dressing, perfectly crisp and flavorful. Fettuccini Alfredo with prawns was incredible!! Creamy & garlicy with incredibly fresh prawns, it was absolutely delicious. Perfect filets & other dishes if not in the mood for pasta. Perfectly crisp pizzas are also on the menu. Incredible wine lists to pair with your meals are the perfect touch. Patty was the server for our large party and was amazing. Friendly & so helpful, my grandparents and I just adore Patty. By the time dessert came around we were to stuffed to even move, but I'll be back for that very soon. Thank you Angelo's for being a Burien must eat and staying consistent with great food and service after all these years! Cheers to that! Recommendation: Fettuccini Alfredo add prawns

Always great service and food. I have dined with large groups 40 plus and they take care of everyone and have limited staff due to Covid

We adore Angelo's. This restaurant has been around since 1957 (that's very old for Burien) and they continue to kick out amazing food. The service at Angelo's is attentive, you can tell the place is family owned as everyone on staff is thoughtful and caring. I would come here for the steaks with a gorgeous pour of wine. Order the port wine reduction on the side, or you're a fool.

Attended a private banquet at Angelo's today. I've been going there for years, but not recently due to, well, no fault of theirs. Yes, it's old school. Love that. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. My dad was a regular there, too. Wouldn't change a thing for ambiance. Yes, the food was fantastic (lasagna especially). Service? Impeccable. I'm tired of chasing the newest restaurants at the expense of classic institutions. Just go eat there. Take your family, your work team or your best friend. Thank you, Angelo's.

Lovely place as I like old school Italian restaurants. Nice staff, too. The food was beautifully put together and presented well. But the food was so bland! I had cannelloni, baked with cream sauce and cheese, and no herbs or garlic that I could discern. Salt and pepper didn't help. Same with the minestrone. Husband had pasta dish that seemed better but still not well seasoned. Our companion had chicken marsala and the main flavoring was the marsala. In my opinion, there should have been herbs and spices etc.

Had the Filet Mignon special it was very good, my husband had spaghetti and meat balls, he really enjoyed the food. Salads with the meal were also good. The restaurant is small inside you sit close to the people next to you and can hear their entire conversations, wish the wall between the tables was solid or a little more private. Good service and drinks. Will be back.

My favorite pizza is made by these guys!! I also LOVE their seafood pasta! Delicious!

I went back and forth in a 2 or 3 star. First of all the place is so dated and dark, the ambiance is just dingy feeling. This place has been around a long time and while I want to support long time local business, they really need some updating. I ordered an old fashioned and it came looking like a well drink at happy hour. Not how an old fashioned should be served. It tasted like straight whiskey on crushed ice. Then I ordered the steak with the port reduction. Looked good but the meat itself had zero flavor. If I have to salt my steak, especially when it's drenched in sauce, it's not a good sign. The steamed veggies were disgusting. The tortellini on the side wasn't bad, the only good thing going for this whole experience. Our waitress was nice enough, she's been there 20 something years. It was packed busy so I'm not sure if I'm off or if it was just a bad experience for me, either way it's barely making a 3 rating.

Angelo's is our favorite restaurant in the state of Washington. It is not only their wonderful offerings but what and how they are prepared....and their sauces...oh my gosh, nothing can compare to the tortellini sauce (the tortellini as well) the incredible sauce of the veal piccata and the veal with the capers...oh my gosh. And BTW Washington is my birthplace and home. We are "foodies" and look for wonderful eating experiences. Kresta was our server....she was so good.

After a very enjoyable initial visit, our second dinner there was most disappointing. While the deluxe pizza was quite nice with plenty of toppings, the pasta I ordered was substandard. While the menu says the spaghetti/penne bolognese comes with a house meat sauce, after ordering penne bolognese and adding meatballs, I was actually served spaghetti with red sauce. While they did add meatballs, it was not a meat sauce and was not bolognese in any sense of the word. We recently moved to this area and thought we had found our local Italian place, but after this meal, we will be trying the other numerous Italian places in that area of Burien.

I have returned to the grounds where I lost a good meal and they appear to be back "up to par" compared to my previous review. I couldn't let "one star" stand after getting a good meal there. I ordered the hamburger steak with red sauce and although it wasn't what I expected, it was exactly what was described on the menu. This is no fault of Angelos. If you are curious.. I was thinking hamburger steak with the port wine sauce. That isn't what the menu said. The rest of my party ordered "tried and true" and got exactly what they wanted. The dinning room is still loud due to removing the table cloths and carpeting but I can live with that if my food doesn't suck. It didn't suck. I didn't love it but it was EXACTLY what I ordered and well prepared. FYI, I am a daredevil and tend to order things I have never tried. Sometimes this works out.. sometimes it doesn't. I am looking for consistency with the cuisine and they gave me what I ordered. The desserts didn't look like what I am used to from this place so I didn't order one. Normally, Margie (sp?) makes them.. I am not sure this is still true. Perhaps the business will weigh in and confirm or deny this?

Dinner salad came with too much dressing. Over powering. Ravioli with a marinara sauce. Ravioli cold. Sauce tasted like it came out of a can. Needed to ask for shredded Parmesan. Disappointed. Not one of their best meals on this date. Service ok.

Classic Italian restaurant, reminds me of where I would go as a kid with my Italian family. We had a great meal and the ambiance and service was perfect for what we expected.

I was in there for dinner ,and I've been coming here for the last 15 years .you guys have a male bartender/server that is so slow and not knowledgeable! I will not be back !!!

Been coming here for years. The service and food is great. The Veal Phillopo and the Fusilli was fantastic. Don't forget to ask for the Coconut crème pie for desert.

Solid two-star Italian. Aging menu, staff, customers, and decor fit the food quality. Not bad, but fairly unremarkable. My daughter is 11 and suggested that she offer to teach the cooks how to make great meatballs after she received her spaghetti with bolognese and meatballs. She does make superb Italian meatballs! Veal parm was a bit tough and was covered with a soup of parm. Needed to be pounded out a bit more and have slightly thicker breading. Lamb shank was okay, but more boiled than braised.

Always a great meal,,Steaks are very gd,,the veal is to die for,,wish their red sause waz a little more spicy

Awesome togo. The wait staff have been doing this for a long time you can tell. They do banquets also. Great place for "party halls". Great food!!!

I was a little hesitant to try this place out just because of some of the reviews, but I had a Groupon to use. Was glad we gave it a try! All the waitstaff was exceptional, especially Patty. The cesar dressing was amazing!! My fiance got the 8oz filet with no blue cheese(personal preference) and it was perfect considering he is very picky about his meat! I ordered the cannoli but was not impressed. The meatballs are so tender and have such amazing flavor. The bread they brought to the table was delicious with just the right amount of oil. I had to try the rocky road cake and that did not disappoint!! Knocking off star due to the cannoli being under whelming but now I know what to order next time!

After about a five month hiatus I decided to come back here again in March, I have gone to the other three Italian restaurants around 152 and 153rd street. I think the seafood cannoli was the worst dish I had at this place, all the other dishes I had here were good. But after being trying the other three Italian places around this area, I have decided not to come here any longer, Osteria Da Primo is my favorite Italian restaurant after doing some exploring. Good luck it was good hospitality and mostly good food. I know some people would disagree with my conclusion but it is my personal opinion.

We went during the Super Bowl. Love the ambiance, the service was great. Good food and good times

Our meal was delicious! My group had lamb shank , pork chop , puttanesca, chicken Marsala, . All of which was so delicious and very filling. We had to pass on the incredible dessert list . The service was outstanding! The ambiance is wonderful with great Italian music . My 1st time here and it won't be the last! Terrific parking and clean sidewalks too

We dined at Angelo's a couple months ago for the first time, after living in Burien & West Seattle for many years. We were very disappointed in the quality of their food, very subpar. The marinara sauce was tasteless. When I asked for spinach or broccoli be added to my pasta dish, it looked like the cook dumped cans of green beans, peas, corn over my pasta. With the can liquid dumped on as well. It was a true mess. We do not recommend Angelo's.

Absolutely fantastic! The owner is the father of Frank from 909 (also an amazing restaurant). The salads were very refreshing. My favorite one was the beet salad. It has a huge helping of buffalo mozzarella and arugula. The pasta was ok, but the star was the roquefort steak. It has a port glaze reduction on top and it's delicious. I get it every time I stop in and will continue to do so! The prices are also very fair. Thank you!

It's been a minute since I've visited Angelo's. Decided to order take out this time around. The gal I spoke to and took my order was pleasant and genial. I ordered the Angelo Parmigiano and the Chicken Marsala. The food was delicious! We'll make it a point to dine-in next go round and experience the full service.

One of the best meals I've ever had was the Tortellini in a pesto sauce with pine nuts. The atmosphere was intimate and inviting. My partner still talks about the Veal Picata. We've been back a couple of times. It has become our go-to restaurant.

Yes. Best steak I've had in ages. I had the tortellini, side dish, and it was awesome too, as was the garlic, bread and salad. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was that the service, although excellent, was over the top. They just wouldn't leave us alone. I was only halfway through my dinner when the woman wanted to box the rest of my food. It was very difficult to have a conversation with the constant interruptions.
