L'angola West - HAVERFORD

BYOB restaurant with great dishes. Great staff to serve up the Italian type cuisine. The duck dish and the Braciola dish were tasty when we ate there 3/29. Mangia!

Excellent food and service! Great value all considered! Looking forward to my next visit.

I have wanted to try this restaurant for sometime because I have enjoyed their South Philly location several times. I made a reservation last Thursday for a party of 8. Our shared appetizers came out in timely manner and were very good. Then the big delay came, waited over 45 minuets for entrees! It also took almost 10 minuets from the time the first entrees came to the last. The restaurant only had 4 tables seated?With the exception of 2 of us that had the rigatoni w/shrimp,(rigatoni was very hard,shrimp dried out )everyone was content with their meal.

Very quiet here on the Sunday before New Year's Eve. Specials are special in both the L'angolo restaurants, and my burrata cheese appetizer special, wrapped in prosciutto on a bed of lettuce iirc! , was delicious. As was the swordfish special $28 , served with calamari and grilled shrimp atop a grid of sautéed potato slices and green beans although another of our diners thought it a bit oily . I shared the burrata with my wife, and still could eat only half the big swordfish entrée. The remaining portion made a nice supper on New Year's Eve. Others in our group had ravioli with sausage, which looked mouth-watering and I realized neither of them offered any tastes around! A terrific dinner helped our group to a very pleasant evening together. Attentive, high-quality service helped, too.

This second position is great. small familiar place with excellant menu. the waiting staff is very professional and accommodating. menu: fresh homemade pastas.,
