"Angelo’s Pizzeria received a Bib Gourmand for its cheesesteaks and pizza. The takeout-only restaurant only accepts cash. This Italian Market favorite is owned by Danny DiGiampietro." - Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme

"A South Philly slice‑and‑steak juggernaut, recognized on the Bib Gourmand list." - Melissa McCart

"A well-regarded shop that elevates cheesesteaks by pairing top-quality meat with house-baked bread to create a noticeably better bite." - Stephanie Gravalese
"If we played a word association game and someone said “Philly pizza,” Angelo’s would be one of the first places to pop in our heads. The cash-only Bella Vista spot makes thick, square pies that smother layers of cheese beneath tomato sauce. But our favorite pizza here is the simplest: the margherita with sweet sauce and smooth, creamy fior di latte. We suggest treating a trip to Angelo’s like an Eagles tailgate—get there super early, dress appropriately for the weather, and bring a relentless mentality." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"Taking the first bite into an Angelo's cheesesteak feels like stepping off the plane at the beginning of a vacation. All the problems of daily life fade away. What matters now is shredded steak and melted cooper sharp that’s layered into warm, toasty, and crackly seeded rolls. The Bella Vista cash-only spot can get more packed than Walmart on Black Friday, but since they serve the best cheesesteak (and some of the best pizza) in town, it’s always worth the wait. Try calling ahead to place your order. You just might have to call a few times to reach someone. We suggest treating a trip to Angelo’s like an Eagles tailgate—get there super early, dress appropriately for the weather, and bring a relentless mentality." - candis mclean, alison kessler
