Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Went here today in the afternoon and was blindsided by the rudeness and disdain we were confronted with. The policy of no separate checks is ridiculous. The waitress was outright rude and then mouthed off about not receiving a tip from the previous two ladies. I would assume it was because of her attitude. I gave in and tipped her because I felt bad. The food itself was adequate but the way we were treated soured the whole experience.

Just looking inside you might be scared away because it doesn't look like much, but the pizza was actually quite good. The wait staff was really chill and laidback too.

AVOID! I am a nice person. I give people the benefit of the doubt, look on the bright side, and view my glass as half full but what is up with this place!?! Staff behaves as if a patron is a massive inconvenience even outright complaining they need a smoke break. The whole place is really dirty and the bathrooms (which are like gold in the Quarter) are disgusting and seem like a place one could be assaulted. My husband saw a massive roach crawl across the floor surprisingly near a giant Orkin big zapper. Not a good sign to see a zapper indoors and in plain view. The other clientele? Shady at best. The food? Not worth the rest of what you encounter here. Be smart and safe. Stay away from here and enjoy any variety of places in the area. Feeling adventurous and wanting to go to a 'local' spot away from the tourists? Please, please find somewhere else.

Look, I know I didn't particularly like this restaurant while I was eating here, but that's no reason for that giant mural of Drew Brees to keep staring at me! It wasn't my fault that the pesto pasta lacked any zest and the noodles were too hard. I also found the portion size a bit too small and it really left me wanting more. From somewhere else. But at $11.25, that was pretty much dinner. Now if the mozzerella bread this restaurant puts on the side of said pasta dish was any indication, I probably would have enjoyed my pizza if I had gotten that. That bread was amazing with a just thick enough layer of mozzerella cheese to make it chewy with each bite. I almost wouldn't call it bread at all. It was almost pizza. Just like this place is almost an Italian restaurant. A laid back pizzeria catering to a vegetarian crowd, yes. And I did appreciate the vibe with some really awesome concert posters lining all the walls and the punk rock waitstaff. But a bit too expensive a pizzeria for my taste. So stop judging me, Drew Brees mural. Stop judging me! Also, stop playing so well when you're on my opponent's team in fantasy football.

Sandwich plates were so tasty, the combinations complimented perfectly. Perfect portions of food, and pleasing environment.

THE BOOT'S LUXE compared to Angeli's grungy, after-kegger frat den; WHY DO OUR BEST THIN CRUST PIZZAS come from either Domino's or Jester's? COMPARABLE TO DELIVERY; a meal for 3-4, the 14-inch "Lucifer": $20 after-tax. When I lived in Chicago, the "perfect pizza" was as much a source of pride as a dark mahogany roux in New Orleans. But just like the touristy myth that Central Grocery has the best muffaletta, to most Chicagoans deep dish pizza is a joke. There the local delicacy is a crisp, crunchy, thin crust that essentially serves as a chip for the rich local sausages, cheeses and generations-old Northwest-side Italian marinara and giardiniera recipes. Among the best of those neighborhood pizzerias, I know of not one that succeeded with a doughy, gummy, glutenous crust like Angeli. Can anyone recommend a crispy-thin, neighborhood pizzeria between the 17th and Industrial Canals? BETTER PIZZA: Thursdays at McDonogh 35; Domino's beef lovers thin crust; Jester's or Big Easy's on Bourbon (1/6th of a 14", $4.50) & they'll even grill 'em "extra toasted"...

Great place for a casual lunch or dinner. The food is good and quick. Service is a bit inconsistent. It's a great option web the city is busy always seems like they can get you in right away. I like the black bean burger.
(4)Christina T.
I cam here for a class project and we had allllllllll differente types of pizze. There's really no way that you can go wrong. All of them were good. A tad greasy but it's pizza! lol Nice casual atmosphere inside also.
(4)Niki B.
Omg! You must have the pita sampler and pasta salad. To die for! Also ask for Marti as your waiter he is phenomenal. My fiancé and I absolutely love this place. Wish they would open one in Metairie too! Superb!
(5)Derreck D.
Usually pretty empty which is nice considering its busy location on lower Decatur. The staff is friendly enough and your usual hipster "Decatur" type; however, they are showered. I think the food was a bit better Pre-Katrina. Still tasty though. I cannot comment on their pizza (never had it). I do enjoy the Meatball Sandwich with the pasta salad or green salad as a side. The sandwich is spicer than most which is a nice change. Overall, for the quite atmosphere and cheap prices it's worth dropping in one day/evening for a quick bite. Not a place to take a date or have a business meeting though.

I went here at night to get some late dinner cause I came home late from work. I ordered the chicken Alfredo pasta with side of cheese pizza. When I ate it it tasted soooo sour like overdue creamer. When I asked to see the manager some girl name Natalie. All she did was took my number down and that's it. Didn't do anything or offer to get me another dish. Not only that the guy that came out who cooked my dish seemed high!? I will be definitely calling the health people cause of this. That's just down right horrible. Expired creamer and serving it . I couldn't even take another bite!? This place should be shut down. I will be writing to the health people about this place!?

The hummus is still really good. That's about where 'good' dried up. The service was ABYSMAL. The pizza came out all wrong (missing the roasted red peppers that used to come on it) and when I asked the waitress she said "oh, it's missing roasted red peppers". She came back a few minutes later and said "Get ready to have your mind blown...they are in the sauce. If you want more I'll have to charge you for them" Halfway through our meal, which we were devouring without any further complaints, she come by and said "oh....you ate that fast. I GUESS i'll bring you the check". I've never been scolded for eating too quickly before and you'd think she'd have offered us something else since we were clearly ravenously hungry. She clearly wanted to get rid of us though and succeeded. My mind was blown alright, but not at all in the way she meant it.
(2)Matthew P.
Checked it out based on the recommendation of a friend and wasn't disappointed. We had the Mystical which was excellent.

Moved to the Quarter Halloween weekend and I have been looking for great pizza since the move. I just had the Lucifer Special today and I am delighted to share that I have found my go to for great pizza. I was extremely pleased with the quality of my pizza and they deliver!
(4)Olga K.
Angeli is one of my go-to delivery spots. I work late hours in the quarter and having pizza or one of their fab eggplant sandwiches delivered is on the verge of life-saving. Thanks for being awesome guys
(5)Tim W.
The food was terrific. I was surprised, though, that at noon on a weekday, we were the only people in the restaurant. The server forgot to bring us our wings, and delivered them after the meal, BUT, she comped the wings, which made up for the error. That little action speaks volumes to me.
(4)Evan B.
Fucking ZERO STARS!!!!!!!! I didn't have my address (God fucking forbid) they told me to go fuck myself. Then when I called back, the manager hung up on me, while saying, "dont fuck with the people that make your food!"
(1)Scott M.
Oh my goodness this is some good pizza. We got the heavenly able veggie pie, and just amazing crust, fresh veg, and very very impressive. Nice atmosphere with big windows in a good people watching spot in the quarter. Also got the Cesar salad, which you can skip, it's nothing special. But wow, that pizza. Mmm.
(4)Dustin T.
I've been coming here for 15 years and they still make the best chicken calzone I've ever had. A few other must haves are the Divine Portobello appetizer (amazing), the grilled cheese sandwich and the pasta salad.
(5)Danyelle T.
Delicious pizza! We had the diavolo and the vegetable pizza. Both were great! We came back for more before out vacation was over!

Good pizza, bad service. New Year's Eve down in NOLA was a bombardment of new experiences. After we watched the fireworks over the mighty Miss, our stomachs were grumbling, so we went in search for grub. This lead our group to Angeli on Decatur. Angeli wasn't too busy, just around one in the morning. We were seated pretty promptly by our waiter, who looked kind of like a dragged out Buster Poindexter. We ordered three different types of pizza: two small specialty pizzas and a large sausage. Everyone seemed pretty satisfied with their order. These fresh hand-tossed concoctions truly hit the spot after a long night of shenangins in the French Quarter! However, we were confronted by another patron with a nearly full pitcher of beer. He said that they were leaving and figured it shouldn't go to waste. We were happy to take the beer off his hands, but apparently Buster saw the pitcher sitting on our table and tried to charge us for it. We received one bill for the pizzas and one for the ten dollar pitcher. When we told him that somebody gave us the beer, he scoffed at us and said it was ten dollars anyway! I realize how crazy New Year's must have been for the guy, but don't charge somebody for beer that you didn't even bring to the table. Keep track of your patrons, buddy! Nonetheless, I still advocate Angeli's!

Salad!!!!!! At last!!!! I had the worst time trying to find some vegetables while in N.O. So I was super grateful to find this place via yelp and see salad. this salad was one of the best salads I've had too. It was the Greek salad and I added chicken. First of all the portion was huge!!! I had so much left over that I munched on later. It was very flavorful. The best part about this salad though was the dressing. You must try the sun dried tomato dressing!!! His dressing was so good I tried to look up a recipe when I got home, I need to find this dressing it was so good. I went in the pouring rain on a early Saturday two weeks ago, place was empty then idk why because that salad was on point. Definitely one of the places I would return to
(5)Jerrel T.
Great atmosphere and attentive friendly staff. Being in New Orleans it's not easy finding something on the healthy side, but I lucked out finding this place! While the food won't blow you away like some of the cities finest restaurants, Angeli on Decatur provides great options that will satisfy both the hunger beast and healthy minded. I recommend this place!
(4)Erika H.
Great casual pizza for a true New Orleans experience. Located in the heart of it all. I'm sure this place is hustling at night we were there for lunch and it was slow but pizza was still wonderful. Ambiance isn't great but not necessary for good pizza! Price was affordable!
(4)Bobby B.
Back pre-Katrina, I used to get food delivered from here. It was usually cold and took forever, but the flavors were pretty good. When I went in, the bartender was the nicest thing ever. So it made me forgive the less than perfect food. It was always a bit grungy but comfortable. I hope it has still kept that level of comfort. I should really go back sometime. I loved the flat bread.
(4)Elaine W.
So we walked in and it was dead, but the waiter was friendly and approached us right away. We ordered salad and pizzas. Some of the lettuce was a bit brown, and I was disappointed, but whatever. Started in on my mushroom and pepperoni pizza and thought it tasted great. On my third slice, I bit something hard--was chewing it and it just wasn't right. I spit out the bite and found a FINGERNAIL. Yep, that's right. Like someone had been clipping their nails and it was laid down in my pizza. I was so disgusted and we called the waiter over. He was horrified. They comped our meal, but I went in the bathroom and threw up. Waiter was super nice, but there's no way I could ever go back. How could that have ended up in my pizza? I don't even want to know.
(1)Miss C.
Good food. Good service. I had the meatball sub & it was delicious. We had a group of 7 for lunch & the server did really well. I love the art work most of all. I would definitely dine here again.
(4)Jill M.
Living just a short drive from NOLA, friends and I visit pretty often. There's a few restaurant we always make sure to hit when we're in town. We were on our way to one of those places when we stumbled upon Angeli, and decided to give it a shot. We got the spicy tomato spread with pita to start, and it was amazing! I also had a sandwich, which was quite substantial, and came with a hearty portion of super yummy pesto pasta salad. We actually came back again the next day, and have been back each visit since!
(4)Paul T.
This place never lets me down...I've been frequenting this establishment for fifteen years and it always has cool servers, and delicious food way into late night in the bustling social scene of lower Decatur. "The Sampler" is not to be something to miss!!

My wife ordered the eggplant and mushroom pizza for delivery. We were both excited to give it a whirl. They promised us 45-50 minutes delivery (We are only .5 mile away). One hour later we called to ask for an update on our order. The guy said the delivery guy is out with our pizza. After that, nada. No pizza. So we called again, and this time they told us our pizza was sitting in their restaurant waiting to go out. Whaaaat?! So we had no choice but to find another place to eat. At this moment I am sitting in another restaurant, waiting for my food, and dying of hunger. And thinking a lot about the pizza that could have been.
(1)Ryan G.
Ordered delivery and items were left off, toppings missing, and one whole pizza switched for another. Called the restaurant and was told a new pizza was on the way--an hour later we call back and they had forgotten us.
(1)Ryan H.
We each had a personal pizza and they were pretty good. Crust was really good though. Small beer selection and the atmosphere was lacking (might have bee the Monday evening dinner time?). Staff was friendly but we were expecting a little more based on previous Yelp reviews.
(3)Katharine C.
We were here back in July and it was mediocre food. But at the time we were starving so it was convenient. Here again for Mardi Gras and it was just such an awful experience. We came in with a group of friends and some ordered beers and food. The server, the red headed guy with a half shaved head, asked everyone how they were and cut off the first person to answer and said "like I give a shit." I'd like to think I have a good sense of humor and understand that working in the service industry during Mardi Gras is probably awful. However, no need to treat people that way. I had intended on ordering food but after that comment and several other snide/rude comments we just left. Never want to go there again. Dude is an unhappy dick head obviously.
(1)Muse Z.
Dead at midnight on a Friday...if the service seems...off...(aka baked/drunk outta their minds)...it's not you...it's them. Literally. Them. It's good enough when you're hungry, when it's late, not busy, and you don't want to travel far...but during the day I'd probably go else where.
(3)Donna A.
We planned on eating at another restaurant & they were closed for lunch because of Easter. We ended up here & we hadn't been here in several years. The salad & pizzas was delicious! The atmosphere here is definitely lacking especially with its graffiti on the bathroom stalls but it's New Orleans. I have been to dives like this before & sometimes it those places that serve some of the best food.
(4)Eric D.
So let me preface this with we didn't get here on purpose. My wife and I were actually waiting to eat at Coops, but after an ungodly wait, we decided to move along. After a bit of wandering, we ended up here. We walked by the window and saw someone eating the most beautiful pizza crust we'd ever seen. That's when we knew where we were eating that night. We started with a grilled chicken salad, which was actually amazing all by itself. The chicken was amazing, and the greens and vegetables were all remarkably fresh. The dressing was made in house and was also delicious. Now onto the pizza! The crust was just as exquisite as I previously mentioned. We got a large pie with pepperoni, black olives, mushrooms, and bell peppers. The mushrooms were fresh, which is a big deal to me. When you pulled off a slice, the cheese strings pulled for miles. It was mucho awesome-o! All in all, great place! A little pricey, but you're getting what you pay for.
(5)Brandon A.
I've never been in angeli's before midnight. This used to be my favorite after work spot when I waited tables in the quarter and would some nights work until 2am. Definitely quirky often there's an obscure film playing on the projector and the staff are quirky as well. The food is well priced and extremely good. They have great pizza, quite possibly the best in the quarter. Their sandwiches are top notch and they are served with some of the best pasta salad I've ever had. All in all even if it's not midnight I'd recommend Angeli's.
(4)Jeannie P.
I don't normally give 5 stars but I have no complaints about this place. My bf took me here to try the pasta salad. I'm soooo glad he did. We each ordered an Abita Amber (served in cold glasses). I wanted something simple because sometimes, simple is the best. Grilled cheese sandwich....served with lettuce and tomatoes. Very good. But the star was the pasta salad. I could have eaten JUST THAT! Oh, and for an appetizer, feta cheese and spinach triangle...something like that. Sooooo good! The staff was very friendly. Welcoming us there and sending us off with "have a good night". The location is on the outside of the FQ so it's quiet and not crowded. Can't wait to go back!
(5)Christopher W.
One of the best pizza stops in the city but the calzone, not so much. There is an art to making a great calzone, the dough, the cheese and other ingredients have to be baked at the right temperature for the right amount of time for it to be great. Unfortunately on this one the dough was perfect but not much else. Both the cheese and the eggplant was undercooked. I still will go for a good pizza especially when they have so many varieties but no on the calzone.
(3)John L. H.
I never knew what Angeli was until last week. Angeli is an interesting place. The clientele seemed to mostly be hard partying people trying to fill their bellies so they could consume more alcohol. That is in no way a bad thing, as everyone knows, good food helps you party longer. The menu is different than most late night eateries and I chose the gyro with pasta salad. Apparently they are known for their pasta salad (what a thing to be known for), and it didn't disappoint. In fact, it was the best pasta salad I have ever had. The gyro was OK, but not great. I think I would order something different next time as long as it came with pasta salad. Service at the bar was a bit slow, but the place was packed. I felt like the meal was a good value, but the gyro just wasn't very memorable. I was glad to discover Angeli and will update my review after subsequent trips.
(3)Ryne B.
I'll keep this one short: they deliver hot, fresh pizza; great toppings, sauce, cheese, and most importantly - crust. Try the wings. They're really good too.
(5)Shala M.
This place was really good. We stopped in after finally making a decision about where to eat and we're not disappointed. The portions are pretty large and easy to share. We ordered the garlic cheese bread, chicken chef salad, and the pesto pasta with chicken. All of the food was good and our bill was only $34
(4)Sadie P.
This place is my favorite restaurant I've ever been to. I live in chicago and get cravings for it all the time! It's relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff are awesome, and it's great for lunch, dinner, or late night. The tomato salad dressing is delicious, and their sandwiches are perfect. My favorite was the turkey. The pizza we got was incredible but I forgot the name. Starts with a V and has garlic herb sauce and artichokes. In terms of drinks id say one of the best bloody Mary's in the quarter. Be careful of: no split checks, no substitutions, and no separated orders.
(5)Gabe R.
I have been to Angeli's probably a dozen times before but this past time being my 1st time I wasn't at least halfway shit faced. I always remembered being pretty satisfied and that the pasta salad was really good. My drunken memory served me pretty well as the food was really good. The lady friend and I started with some Feta and Spinach Traingles. These were lightly fried doughy spinachy goodness sprinkled with Feta....you can guess the shape on your own. Then I got the Italian Feast sammich with a side of pasta salad. This pasta salad is like heaven. I wish I could just say give me a big ass bowl of the pasta salad with a big wooden spoon...here's my American Express card. It's that damn good. The Italian Feast sandwich is pretty good too. It's ham, salami, pastami, mozzarella, lettuce and tomato. All baked on I think a sourdough bun. Really good. The grilled cheese my girlfriend had was tasty too. I think it was cheddar and mozzeralla on the same bread. So why only 3 stars? Well the place itself is a rather shithole. Shitholes I don't really mind per se. I mean there were 3 different styles of floor in the same dining room. There was hardwood, some crappy looking small tile that looked like it would have been in Lucille Ball's house, and another tile that looked like the bathroom of a middle school. That doesn't bother me but the creepy angels on the walls kind of do. These pictures are all for sale at RIDICULOUS prices. They wanted $600.00 for some crappy drawing. Then there were disco balls all hanging around it. Weird. Ok that alone would only knock it down a star. So I was walking back to the car yapping with the lady friend thinking it would be a 4 star review. Then we get to the car only to find a $40.00 parking ticket for being within 20 ft of a stop sign ( i was probably 18.....Damn meter maids!). Angeli's the parking ticket wasn't your fault but sometimes in life we pay for things that are not really our responsibility. So blame the NOPD for your loss of a star. If I got to pay, so do you.
(3)Suzanne C.
I always end up here after Yelp events, and I can't say I'm sad about it. Angeli is a perfect slightly drunk place to nosh. In fact, I'm pretty sure the staff nurse a slow buzz themselves because everyone seems a little unfazed around here. The service isn't ever stunning, but it doesn't completely blow. There is a middle ground that Angeli occupies. (Or maybe I keep going at really bad times like late at night or the middle of a slow afternoon when everyone should be napping.) Someone recommended I try the pasta salad--hot damn! This was worth the trip, and I keep coming back to it. OM NOM NOM. There are also real vegetarian options that are generally well-executed. Some of them are a little greasy or over-cheesed, but that shouldn't be a complaint. Who doesn't love cheese? (Not this girl!) What else should I say about Angeli? I keep coming back here. The food makes me happy. The pasta salad is amazing. I'm mostly drunk when I eat here, and I'm really okay with that record. WOO. Accessibility notes: no Braille menu or signage. Can get loud at peak hours. Step up into the restaurant.

I feel some sort of destiny/fate thing going on between John L. H.'s review and my first time at Angeli on Decatur. Yes...I was hard partying this day. Yes...I needed to fill my belly. Potentially...to consume more alcohol. It was Red Dress Run, and besides my 9:30am breakfast of deuce Bloody Marys at Good Friends and some piping hot queso, I hadn't eaten much. Whilst in my red tutu, I wolfed down Angel Wings, which aren't crazy spicy or saucy, but hit the spot with a side of ranch. Then split a Chicken Diavolo Pizza: Grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and a spicy red sauce with my compadres. No judgement passed by our waitress who was also serving multiple tables of red dressed patrons. Did it fill my belly?...yes. Were the prices suuuuper good, yeah! $7.50 for the 8 wings, and $11.50 for a 10" pizza that hit the spot. Did I continue to drink that afternoon? Sure did. I'm glad I found a spot in the Quarter for times like this! Good prices, and I'm not going to be asked, "You a local? Why don't you try our $10 jambalaya?" BUT I do need to come back for the pasta salad, sooner than later, apparently.
(4)Kaleb Banning K.
Amazing pizza at a reasonable price. I order from them at work from time to time, and have never been let down. The pizza has a good. homemade taste, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. They also have really cool names, like The Lucifer Special and stuff like that. I can't rate the inside as I have only had them deliver, but they are always fast and courteous when I call. The best thing though, and the reason for the 5 Stars, is these folks get modern business. They take credit cards! YES, someone around here that actually wants to MAKE MONEY instead of turning off their potential guests by hanging on to the 1950's gold standard. Try them out, you'll be glad that you did.
(5)Christine L.
Amazeballs, but not always the best service. This place has amazing pizza and cheese bread. I have ate here sober and drunk and both ways I love it. It stays open late which is nice when it is 1 in the morning and you are hungry for something other then what someone is selling on the street or krystal's. The service here is not that great, but it is on a busy street in New Orleans. It is more of a dive-y place. If you want super clean bathrooms and super nice servers go to a more tourist-y spot. Yes there is no split checks or separate payments. But I understand. They have it all over the menu so you won't be surprised when the bill comes. All in all this place is great. I can't believe all the reviews saying this place will never last. It has been open since before Katrina, and it still amazing.
(4)Ric A.
Best Meatball in the Quarter ...very fast and friendly delivery...price is good for the quarter
(4)Toni J.
Where do I start with this review.... Any business in 2014 that doesn't have website will be out if business shortly. Here's a perfect example. Since Angeli doesn't have A website, someone created one for them. And is taking online orders for them as well! This is the scam I got caught in last week. After 30 minutes of back-and-forth between the restaurant and the scam site, I finally got it figured out... But now they have my credit card so who knows what I am facing in the future. This all could've been avoided if they just had a simple site with their menu on it, or at least monitored their web presence. Once I finally place my order, I asked for the delivery time and they said 30 to 35 minutes. I said if it's anymore I can't place my order because I have a meeting in 45 minutes. 45 minutes later I called the restaurant to find out the status of my order... It was on the way, they had messed up the pizza and had to remake it... No call to the customer to let them know! I had to run down to the lobby grab my food and then put it in my room, didn't even get a chance to take one bite because I was late to a meeting... Super annoyed... And starving! Two hours later I finally got to eat (cold) pizza. The pizza was actually very tasty, the roasted garlic was not overpowering and it had a decent amount of vegetables. The salad on the other hand was a rip off. Same price as the pizza but was essentially lettuce and 1/2 a white onion, with a sprinkle of the other veggies that come with it. I was not amused. You may have a better experience in the restaurant, but I would not recommend take out, or their overpriced salads.
(2)Quendolyn B.
Great taste but do not order the gyro. There are literally 3 strips of meat on the pita bread with mostly lettuce and onions.
(3)Jennifer N.
Delicious!!! Got the lucifer pizza and it was delicious!! Devoured the whole thing. Prices are fair and service was great!!!
(5)Sukhraj B.
The bride and her mom brought the bridesmaids here as sort of a special lunch so that we could do a bit of a meet and greet, hang out, and so that the bride could get her "pizza fix." All that was fine with me because we all hit it off as soon as we met. My best friend, the bride, loves this place so we just left the ordering up to her. Service is slow but then again, that's sort of the charm about Louisiana. You can't be in a hurry and you have to be OK with that which I was because we weren't really going anywhere. We started off with small salads that are anything but small so be forewarned. I was almost full from the salad itself and had to stop myself from eating anymore. Our pizzas were the virtuous angel - a veggie pizza with goat cheese, spinach, mushroom, tomatoes and a pesto chicken. Both were amazing and tasted fresh. The crust is nice and buttery too. Mmm. This is a great spot in the French Quarter and a real treat.
(4)Saniya S.
If you're walking from Canal Street or around Jackson Square, this place is ALL the way down Decatur street! But Decatur was a pretty cool street with lots of shops/restaurants/people so it was actually a fun trek. We got there at kind of an odd time, around like 4, so it was really chill & we easily found a place to sit. The place is kind of one huge room with lots of wacky paintings & decorations all over the walls, and windows at the front. We ended up getting a pizza off the specialty pizza menu & an eggplant sandwich with a side salad. The pizza was amazing! It had fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, feta cheese, and I asked the waitress to substitute the artichokes with eggplant, which she very kindly did! The sandwich was yummy too. The salad that came with the sandwich was lame, but I guess it's a pizza place so salads probably aren't their speciality. On the other hand, the sundried tomato dressing that came with the salad was delicious! The food did take a long while to come out, but then it is pizza, and since we were pretty tired it just felt good to sit down and warm up. Waitress was very sweet & attentive. Oh also, the next day, we warmed up the pizza and it was still good!

Absolutely amazing!! We were a "little intoxicated" as you should be in NOLA and we're just trying to find a place that delivered (could barely walk). Asked what they were known for and ordered wings, pizza and Greek salad. All amazing!!! Definitely recommend!
(5)Gym B.
Great food at great prices. One of my favorites is their pasta salad.
(4)Leilani A.
Been a loyal customer since birth. Try the pasta salad and spinach and artichoke sandwich. Good delivery.

This place rocks. My children and I were in NOLA for a few days on vacation, and stopped by here in the middle of the week. I'm not a big pizza person, but my kids are (like most kids) and I figured this would engender some goodwill. My kids shared a pizza (and we still had two pieces left over) and I bad the best chicken calzone I had ever eaten in my life, which was seemingly the size of a small child. As I said above, I'm not a big pizza eater, but if there was somewhere like this in my hometown then I probably would be. The fact that it was only ~$31 for the pizza, calzone, and drinks for everyone was also an unexpected pleasure. If I ever go back to New Orleans, consider Angeli's my first stop.

These pies are the best in the Quarter/Treme.

No split checks. No substitutes. Great for pizza and pasta!

Unfortunately the staff is very unfriendly in my dealings with them. I work at an establishment on Royal street in which there was a dispute over a food delivery being paid properly between one of our Owners and a driver of theirs. The delivery driver cursed out the entire staff while customers were in our shop. Needless to say, they are assholes.
(1)Sean B.
Jason I. said it... old-school pizza, sandwiches, and salads. The place was dead at 9pm but I hear it's slammin' later when drunk people come in before round two. Glad I saw it when it was slower. Enjoyable, but nothing special, in a city full of amazing places. Slow service (considering we were the only ones there), and pretty average Italian food.
(3)Melissa M.
I have been here a few times on past visits, Never again!. I used to come here for their grilled cheese sandwich, it was pretty tasty. I came here with a couple of friends and we wanted separate checks, not really a big deal or so we thought??. The waitress was outright rude and that is totally unacceptable. Had it not been for the fact of looking forward to having a grilled cheese, we would have walked out then and there....The food came and it was not even near as good as it was the past few times I had been there. Perhaps the shitty service also added to the unappetizing food. We left exact change and walked out and this crap waitress (who should seriously think about getting a job where she doesn't have to flaunt her unsocial behavior in front of people) actually asked us why we didn't leave a tip...clearly, not a rocket scientist...so there is another job opportunity missed on her part. I didn't actually hear what she said, I just heard someone behind us yapping. One of the people with us felt bad and gave her an undeserved tip. I only hope that she used this money to but some laxative to purge her shitty attitude. I won't be back. Have fun scaring away what customers you have left with your winning personality.....lol

It was our first night in NOLA, and we were starving. The woman working the door at either Blue Nile or Three Muses pointed us this way, since we were starving. I don't know why we ordered pizza, having just come from New York, but I'm glad we did. We got the pizza with the bacon; I want to say it was called the mystic pizza or something like that. I don't think there was sauce on it, which may have been why it was so good (if pizza is bad, it's usually because of the sauce). We were impressed by how yummy this pizza was. Service was somewhat slow, but it didn't bother us too much. I don't know if I'd ever return, since it's unlikely I'd go to NOLA for pizza, but I can see why it's highly rated on Yelp.
(4)KC H.
My boyfriend and I were looking for a quick and quiet spot to grab some food after a long day of touring the French Quarter. We stopped here and the location was very quiet for its location. Our server was very attentive and extremely friendly. The Lucifer's Pizza was perfect!!! However, we didn't like the Tomato Dip.... It was more like paste.
(4)Angela P.
At some point I'd bookmarked Angeli's as a late night food spot. I knew that, without a doubt, we'd need late night food during our stay in New Orleans. Our last night here, we had such a massive lunch that we ended up skipping dinner. Or was it a liquid dinner? We ordered a pizza, the...Angelic Spirit? Angel something? Oh hell, it had mozzarella, mushrooms, spinach, and a really good sauce. No, it isn't Chicago style pizza, but that didn't make it bad. It was actually really, really good pizza. Big fan of their crust and cheese. I wish we had Angeli's in Chicago, but I'm sure a lot of die hard pizza fans would crap all over it. Well, guess what Chicago? New Orleans has some damn good, late night pizza that'll knock your socks off! Definitely add them to your "must eat" list. We could've stopped in, since we were at Molly's, but we wanted to go back to the hotel. Angeli delivers until 2:00 a.m., and I suspected that ordering a pizza at 11:00 p.m. would take a painfully long time. I called, sat on hold for probably 3-4 minutes, making me more anxious and hungry, but our pizza was delivered in half an hour! How's that for service? Considering that you can't really navigate the French Quarter by car (or, if you attempt it, I think you're an idiot), I was impressed by the speed of our delivery. $20 and 30 minutes later, I was no longer a hungry, hungry hippo. Well, at least not the hungry part!
(5)Steve I.
Another wonderful restaurant in the Quarter. Casual setting, wonderful food, and cheap prices! Some of the stars on the menu: - Grilled Chicken Sandwich: Moist, succulent chicken breast. - Portabella Mushroom Sandwich: Awesome! - Grilled Cheese Sandwich: Best grilled cheese sandwich around. - Angel Pizza: Spinach, artichokes, tomatoes, and mushrooms! - Chicken Diavolo Pizza: Grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and a spicy red sauce. - Mystical Pizza: Love this pizza! If you like sundried tomatoes and bacon get this pizza. - Pasta Salad: Simple yet delicious. FYI: Almost all of their sandwiches and pizzas are served with mozzarella cheese :)
(4)B N.
Great calzones! Love the chicken calzone, which is huge and a bargain compared to the other overpriced restaurants in the French Quarter. The chicken diavolo pizza rocks if you're into a pizza with a little kick. Overall, excellent Italian food and great sauce. The biggest con is the location, which is near the Decatur/Frenchmen St. divide. This is where all the angst-filled and troublemaking homeless hippies gravitate. One of them walked by the restaurant and kept sticking his middle finger at all the patrons. Wasn't too pleasant, when with the family.

Visiting from NYC. Came to Angeli's a more expansive vegetarian option. Yes, NOLA is not known for vegetarian dishes. Ordered the Angeli Pizza and the pasta salad. Pizza has a poor balance of flavor. It wasn't awful but just too savory as it had feta cheese, roasted garlic, eggplant, sun dried tomatoes, a garlic sauce and some other items. Pasta salad was alright but lacked veggies....and for some reason there was an odd single sliver of lettuce in it. What's up with that? Service wasn't top notch. there was mainly one server and three guys behind the counter chatting. The place doesn't look the cleanest and definitely isn't. We noticed something in our waters and asked for a new one. Half way thru the glass of water and all the way thru the meal, we noticed the 2nd one had something in it. ...Both waters had COCKROACH. When brought up to the employees/owners, all the said was there's bugs everywhere. That's so stupid. Bugs and pest are a natural part of life so it's okay to have it in our foods and serve it to your customers repeatedly? I'm wondering if they even cleaned out the cup before or changed the cup when we first advised them. Also, they gave us no apologies or credits of any sorts. Just charged us full. We took a picture of it and added to the Yelp pictures. Perhaps, NOLA should consider the sanitation grading system. NEVER AGAIN, ANGELI, NEVER AGAIN!!! !!!!unless you want to be eating, drinking and possibly throwing up after eating here...stay away!!!! Can i give a negative 5 star?
(1)Lorenzo B.
Man the employees may look crazy, but they know how to make a pie! Great crust excellent sauce cooked right! Not a great looking place
(4)The Peoples Soldier S.
Customer service at this place licks ballz! Driver wouldn't deliver. We even offered an extra tip. We called an hour later asking where our pizza at, guy hung up after he knew he was talking to the guys that didn't get their pizza. Don't know how their pizza taste but I wouldn't taste it now their customer service already left a bad taste in my mouth.
(1)Bryan G.
This is my favorite lunch spot in New Orleans. They have a killer range of vegetarian options. I always opt for one of the three vegetarian sandwiches. The pasta salad is also the greatest pasta salad to ever exist. It's one of the best foods I've ever had. My girlfriend got the vegetarian wrap, which I'd never tried but it was delicious. I've also heard that the pizza is killer although I've never tried it. Angeli was the first truly great food spot I found in New Orleans. I would recommend this place to anyone, from the long time New Orleannian and first time tourist. Whenever I have a friend come to town I always take them here for lunch or dinner whenever we spend a day in the quarter.
(5)Clarice O.
Angeli's was the very first restaurant I have dined at in New Orleans. Due to some confusion about transportation, my original arrival of 12:30 AM at my bed and breakfast became 2:45 AM. At this point, I have not had anything to eat for over 14 hours and my last meal was a small garden salad. To say that I was famished by then is a major understatement. I wanted to get started with Creole food, but the concierge at my B&B (located at Esplanade) told me that Angeli's is the nearest restaurant still open and the food is really good. Also, it is along the way to Cafe du Monde (whose beignets I was more than anxious to try). Reluctantly, I took my concierge's advice and headed to Angeli's. It did not disappoint. The bartender/waiter, Josh, is a rockstar and was my hero that night! He was very accommodating and was my first introduction to the renowned Southern hospitality. I didn't bother with the menu but asked him to recommend something that would be prepared quickly and that did not contain red meat. He suggested the Virtuous Angel pizza. With a name like that, how could a girl resist?!? The artichoke, spinach and mushroom toppings were very good with the garlicky sauce. But the cheese. That cheese..... Mmmm... I couldn't get enough of it! Definitely check Angeli's out. The food is reasonably priced and really rather tasty. The staff are friendly and interesting to talk to. The location is fairly near Frenchmen and the French Market. And they are open late.
(4)Whitney E.
Love the hummus. Great spot post parades and if you have a large party. Affordable food and yummy pizza.
(5)Joi B.
Time to update the ol' Angeli review. Let's talk about lunch. Angeli is a good option for those vegetarians who dare to get hungry in the afternoon hours (and the midnight hours, too, as you know they are open 24-hours). Whereas in the past, I couldn't tear myself away from the hummus wrap or pizzas, the other day I decided to mix it up a bit and get the spinach artichoke sandwich. Perfection between 2 slices of bread. All of the ingredients, super fresh and the bread, a crusty sour dough... irresistible shebang. I thought I was hungry enough to eat the whole thing, but it's *enormous* (and of course I scarfed down the entire portion of that delish pasta salad I'm always going on about. Tossed with balsamic, tomatoes, olives... god, it's good, though I wouldn't mind a couple more olives, just sayin'). Great value and definitely for those not faint of appetite. My friend and I were the only people in here at around 3pm (not surprising, I'm just noting it) and our server was pretty on point.
(4)Frid H.
I was assaulted by the red haired hostess. Otherwise I love this place. I called and asked for a "large vegetarian piZZA" reply was "$20.62" when I arrived hostess told me "we have like five veg pizzas, you get nothing!" I said I'll wait for any veg pizza. But instead I got a fat lip. 10+ punches to the face. Police on it. Unbelievable. Please fire that red haired dude.
(1)Ashley F.
The divine portabella was perfect! I will order this again, simply for that dish. Got a small salad with a very good balsamic dressing, although salad was a bit small for the price. Id go with a large next time. Highly recommend!
(4)Stephanie K.
Stopped in here for a bite and a drink after checking into my hotel. Ordered a margarita, a Caesar salad, and a pepperoni calzone. The salad was pretty good- lettuce was crisp and bright and the croutons the right size, but the dressing wasn't that great. The drink served its purpose, but I needed two to feel anything. The calzone came out pretty quickly and smelled delicious! I could only eat half. It was yummy! I would come back again, but would stick with a calzone and no alcohol.
(4)Marielle S.
One of my favorite places to eat in the quarter. They have delicious food. From sandwiches to pizza. My absolute favorite is the Mystic pizza. Oh my gah! It is so good. I seem to remember gettng a pasta salad here once. I love how big the servings are here and the place is perfect for groups. Also, this place is open late, so it's a great place to stop if you need some dinner after a long night. Try not to be put off by the paintings on the wall that seem to resemble Angelina Jolie. Fun fact: a friend of mine lives in the apartment directly above this place and his pad smells like pizza 24/7...a little cool and a little weird, eh?
(4)Jaime A.
They were open when I desperately needed them to be! BAAM! I'm sold; g'night! FYI, the pizza we had was out of this world! And around 1AM... I can't image glory tasting any better!
(5)Iris T.
Angeli's is the perfect getaway from the crazy crowded restaurants around NOLA. The food is incredibly delicious & leaves you wanting seconds!
(5)Eran M.
(vegan/vegetarian - New Orleans is totally doable!) Great spot for a casual lunch or dinner. My wife got the 4-cheese pizza and said it was very good - it was definitely big enough for two to share. I asked for a vegan version of the portabella mushroom sandwich, and it was *amazing*. And filling. And I'm a pretty hungry guy. The great food along with the friendly and kind service leaves nothing to be desired. Yey for Angeli!
(5)John H.
The food here is good, however it is not consistent. Some times it is better than others. My main problem is with the hipster wait staff. I ordered the grilled chicken Caesar salad, cost about $9 which is ok for the size. I handed the hipster waiter who never checked on me a twenty dollar bill, he had the audacity to ask "Do you need change".....really made me want to leave no tip. Rude service. Food is sometimes great other times just ok.
(2)Hillary W.
In from out of town, I came here with two girlfriends. We had a great time, good food, fun setting, and they have cocktails. This place certainly has a fun, rustic vibe that veers on hipster without being pretentious or any negative aspects of that word. Large portions on my pesto pasta and the waiter was really great, keeping our water refilled. Located in the heart of the french quarter - we walked back to Bourbon to engage in debauchery! Also surrounded by great galleries and cute shops. Will return next time I'm in town!
(5)Christina I.
So I used to love this place, and don't get me wrong, I still love the food, but the establishment itself needs some work. I've enjoyed everything I've ever eaten from here in the past, and I've mostly had it delivered to me. But recently I went in to dine and had a not so pleasant experience. The service was not exactly friendly, and didn't pay much attention to us. The restaurant seemed pretty musty and not very clean. I didn't notice it until a few minutes after sitting down, but the restaurant started smelling like terrible body odor. We all know that smell and that's exactly what it was. We ordered our food and drinks and from then on I was nauseous. My girlfriend and I tried to rush through the meal, but could barely stomach it. We would've taken our food to go, but by that point, eating the food was even nauseating. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be ordering from them again because of this experience. I hope they make some changes soon.
(1)Lisa N.
meh, don't really know what all the fuss is about. I heard Angelina and Brad often come here, so I had to try it. Plus my cousins from NOLA frequent Angeli's as well. We came here at about 10PM on a weekday and were promptly seated (luckily there was no wait at the time). The doors remain open, so there were many flies buzzing around, unfortunately. We ordered 2 sandwiches with the ever-so-popular pasta salad and the pesto pasta without chicken. Sandwiches (~$7/each)- big, tasty, and well worth the price Pasta Salad (otinni pasta, red onions, mushrooms, olives tossed in a balsamic base)- not as great as everyone says; it reminded me of pasta from a salad bar in Whole Foods and missed my expectations from fellow yelpers Pesto Pasta (pesto with sundried tomatoes, kalamata olives, and rotini pasta for $11)- generous portion, but something in it that was very chewy that I had to take out of my mouth after each bite... I believe it was aged bamboo shoots =( Our server was friendly, but the service was slow because he was the only one waiting on 6 or 7 tables. (+) open late until 2AM on Sun-Thurs, 4AM Fri + Sat, great value on the sandwiches (-) slow service, flies, crowded, street parking
(3)Karen R.
Mediocre food and terrible service. Waited over an hour for a pepperoni pizza and a chicken salad on a non-busy Sunday night. Waitress never came back to our table after giving us drinks. Finally after 2 other groups after us got food I asked what was up. She said there was a "glitch" in the system and orders had to be re-entered. Never apologized or came to our table to let us know. Didn't offer to discount our meal for the wait. She really didn't give a crap. We had Dante pizza 2 nights before on St. Peters and it was WAY better with friendly and fast service. Don't waste your time or money here.
(1)Darrin Y.
Remember Steak-Um? They serve something like it here. Probably my bad for ordering a gyro at an Italian-ish place. Bit three strips of Steak-Um? Not kidding here - took me back to the 70's (generally don't want that). Three identically sized rectangles of beef-food. And them some greens and pita. I couldn't believe it. Still can't. The worst excuse for a gyro I've ever seen. I hope it's the worst thing on the menu. On the other hand, the pasta salad was pretty nice. I've heard their pizza is good, but haven't had it. Don't order the gyro.
(2)Dennis L.
Angeli on Decatur is one of my favorite spots in the French Quarter. It's pretty non-descript with the exception of their "unique" art on the walls. It has a divey feel, but the food delivers. I always start out with the Sampler Plate, which is a must order. It consists of hummus, spicy tomato spread, roasted red peppers & feta with pita triangles. Everything on the plate is great, but the spicy tomato spread is simply wonderful. Other the sampler, you cannot visit Angeli without trying their pizza. In my opinion, it is the best in New Orleans. The Chicken Diavolo is my go-to: spicy red pepper sauce, mozzarella cheese, grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and jalapeno peppers. This pizza is simply amazing! Look at the picture I took of it and disagree...I dare you! You really cannot go wrong at Angeli. I look forward to my next trip to NOLA to pay a visit.
(4)Johnathan N.
Service was great food was good, until I saw those rats running by our table. A customer walked out after she seen them too, poor lady. Would I come back? Maybe.
(3)Sarah V.
Delicious!! Hummus was very good and the chicken diavolo was phenomenal. (Minus onions) there are entire garlic cloves inside the pizza so be prepared. The waiter was really nice! We got there at 1:00am so it was perfect for a late night meal.
(4)Shannon S.
This is probably the most dive Italian/Mediterranean joint in NOLA. They have pizza, pasta and sandwiches. The food is generally good and the service ranges from attentive to indifferent depending on who, what and when is going on. The last thing I ate here was the pasta marinara with meatballs which overall was good except my meatballs were cold. I probably wouldn't suggest this as an initial spot to bring a date but the prices are very affordable for NOLA and a bargain in the Quarter.
(3)Randall N.
This was one of my regular places to come for late night food when I lived in nola. I love this place. The lucifer pizza is wonderous. Actually all the pizza i've had here as been pretty rad. They have some solid topping combinations. The spicy tomato dip is one of my favorite dips on the planet....and I love dips. I regularly got the dip for dinner instead of an entree. Spicy sweet tomatoes and feta served with warm pita slices. MMMMMM good. I haven't had it in quite a while but the portabella pasta is sweeeeeeet. Angeli's is glorious just because this pasta has HUGE slices of portabella mushrooms not just tiny dime sized thin bites. Man, now I want it. Should've had that instead of dip when I went last week. The service can be slow and spotty but it's usually pretty good and the servers are usually pretty interesting to talk to. I also love that they typically play some weird/funky movies or music videos on the wall. Their alcohol selections are pretty great for it being such a tiny place. Oh and they deliver in the quarter too!! Yay considering nobody delivers in NOLA. Delivery is seriously lacking in the city.
(4)Robert L.
I've been going to place long before I lived or worked in the French Quarter. Is it the best? No but it does have a lot of pluses. The pizzas are always consistently good, the calzones are great, good hummus, and a really good grilled cheese sandwich. It is very casual and relatively inexpensive. The only drawback is that the staff can be a little rude or short with you at times. Oh yes and they have Barq's in a bottle which all restaurants in New Orleans should have, especially casual dining ones like this. Overall Angeli's should get 3 1/2 stars. I will always keep going back here and keep them in my rotation of pizza delivery options. Oh yeah and they're open till 2am which is always nice.
(3)Shannon H.
Well I guess we were a little disappointed, but it was okay. I had the spicy meatballs with pasta - not as spicy as some reviews stated, but just not that exciting. My husband ordered the chicken diavola pizza - soggy crust in the middle put a damper in the good flavor. Would we go back - probably not. Did it suck - no. I'm just giving it an honest so-so.
(3)John G.
In from out of town, San Antonio, and was staying in the Marigny district at the Lion's Inn and wanted to find some late night fare. Bingo! Walked in around midnight or so, may have been one other couple there, and got the chicken and pesto pizza and was quite delighted with the quality and service. Had no problems at all here, good pick and good experience, certainly hit the spot!
(4)Elli F.
I walked in here on the spur of the moment, having thought about going in many times, but just not. Anyway, I ordered the spicy meatball sandwich with pasta salad and a vodka gimlet. The bartender asked me what was in a gimlet, then said "oh yeah" when I told him. Kinda adorable. The drink was good, not that it is a hard one. ;). For some reason, I was surprised that the sandwich was round. I think I expected it to be on a hoagie roll or something. It was nice that it was cut in half. The bun was also toasted. I think only the outside, since the inside seemed a tiny bit "gummy" from the sauce. The meatball sandwich was spicy, as advertised, not overly so, but nice. the pasta salad was fine. The bartender was attentive enough and I really did like the meatballs. I am looking forward to trying them with pasta rather than a sandwich.
(4)AaronErin D.
We stopped here for a bite to eat last minute to avoid the craziness on Bourbon Street, luckily we got sat right away. The servers were friendly but a tad slow on greeting us and taking a drink order. We ordered the pasta salad that everyone was raving about on Yelp, it was good but nothing exceptional. We also ordered a Caesar salad which was good and we shared the Chicken pizza. Overall an easy dinner night in New Orleans, not somewhere we would make sure to stop at each visit. There are many amazing food options around town. Would recommend if you want something super laid back, you don't appreciate the amazing Cajun New Orleans cuisine or you have small children.
(3)Vanessa M.
We're living it up vacationing in the Marigny Bywater area. We just finished eating a delivery meal from Angeli's, and I have to let everyone who wants to hear me know that this place was fantastic. Delivery was reasonable - took about 40 minutes. I ordered Angeli Greens salad, a large pepperoni sausage pizza, and garlic bread. And then, I saw that they have burgers. Being a burger fanatic, I had to have one, so I picked their Mediterranean burger, that came with a side. There were a few, but the pasta salad was something I couldn't pass up. Loved everything - the pizza was still hot and delicious, the salad was a simple salad but they sent a whole bunch of it and three of us were able to share, the garlic bread was tasty and moist but crunchy, and the pasta salad was everything I want pasta salad to be. I loved the burger, too - and kudos to a pizza place that delivers burgers and makes regular and fancy ones - but it was a little dry. Even though I wanted to grab that "fancy" ketchup packet my fiancé said he needed right out of his hands, I kinda knew the burger needed a moistener. Total cost for all this food? $40. The only reason our cost went that high was because I wanted us to get the full experience of this place. So worth it!
(4)Baylee B.
I'm giving this place 5 stars based on food quality & price. Don't be fooled by the decor, this place is a diamond in the rough! The pizza is delicious & noticeably homemade. We had the spinach triangles as an appetizer, inventive and yummy! The food is very good & the service is good! I highly recommend if you're looking for tasty lower price food.
(5)Lisa P.
I'm so sad! I went and got my usual, and the hummus tasted a bit like plastic. Something was off about the pizza, too. And there was no longer a cocktail menu. When asked about the bar offerings, our server stated that they have "beer, wine, and liquor, but not many options of each." The ambiance seemed different as well, but that could have been a result of my displeasure with the rest of the experience.
(2)E F.
We stopped here for late night dinner. This place is loud and grungy. Food: Spaghetti + meatballs: $10.25 Pizza - Small Lucifer special - pepperoni, sausage, ham, peppers, onions: $11.50 Honestly, they said the meatballs were spicy, but it wasn't just the meatballs. This dish was so spicy and salty, I couldn't eat it. :(
(2)Mark B.
A staple for consistently good, decently priced food when I'm in/around the Quarter. I deduct a star because of the cleanliness. However, with that being said one must not forget that you are in the French Quarter so a roach siting is not uncommon even in the cleanest of restaurants. Laid back atmosphere and as mentioned in another review some of the best pasta salad. The divine portobello, chicken caesar wrap are among my favorites here. Never been let down.
(4)Moira R.
The past few times I have been here the temperature has been more tolerable. In addition, the crust has even been better. I'll be curious to find out if the temperature remains tolerable when summer arrives.
(4)Dallas T.
I love the food here. I have been coming here for 6 years or so and sadly, each time it has gotten worse. It used to be my favorite pizza place and I'd drive from all over the city to get a celestial chicken pizza. As a local and a former quarter rat and veteran service industry worker, I'm offended by this place now. I can't get my salad before my meal? There are 3 tables that all had their food and they tell me they are too slammed to bring a salad out before a meal, oh unless I pay extra for a dinner salad instead of a side salad. I don't care about no split checks or any of the bs on the back of the menu, although it's a real turn off that it looks like a big bold Ten Commandments of "no, don't even ask". But, the people are just plain rude. I got charged for two drinks because they didn't tell me they don't have sweet tea and I asked for a soda instead. Have you ever tried to dissolve sugar in ice tea? You can't. The staff is rude and dirty and looks like they hate their job. If you're that jaded from working in the French quarter, go get another job. There is plenty of work in this city. We bussed our own table because no one felt like cleaning any of the empty tables that were all trashed. I still left a decent tip because they more than likely expected a shitty one and I'm not that girl. Maybe next time they will be a little better a determining the drunk douche bag tourists from locals who just want to eat. Oh, did I mention it was my birthday? Great night... If I hadn't been so hungry and tired from performing that night, I wouldn't have even bothered.
(2)Arlon F.
This is one of the worse dinning experiences i have ever had. Our server was so rude to us that i did not want to eat there. My meatball sandwich was the worse i have ever had also. It was awe full and then i realized why we were the only people in the restaurant. I will never enter this establishment again !!!
(1)Maria H.
Brought my vegan daughter here and she enjoyed it. Angeli special was very good. My sisters meatball sandwich was good.
(4)Chase B.
Ate sandwiches and calzones. A lot of food, good quality, great taste and reasonable prices. Would recommend to others. Side note...if you do not have a large appetite...then share the calzone...it is huge.
(5)Tere F.
They have vegan options and are open late night.
(4)Lauren S.
Not a ton of atmosphere, but a darn fine pie. Fresh ingredients, tasty crust. I'd go back if I'm in the neighborhood. (Great neighborhood!)
(4)Cassandra S.
Food was ok, ambiance was poor and the bathrooms were deplorable. Will not go there again.
(1)Paul O.
Great value, well-prepared food. Like the sandwiches, pizza and pasta, and they deliver. The pasta, for example, is usually large enough to last for lunch the next day, so double the value. There are better Italian places in NOLA, but not at these prices. Staff have always been super friendly and helpful.

Stopped here at lunch time because it was open and the prices listed appeared to be reasonable (New Orleans standards for reasonable that is). Eight dollars and fifty cents for the sandwiches with one side. It was 20 minutes after opening time and there were no other customers in the place so there was no wait. I had the Portabella Mushroom sandwich with pasta salad and coffee. Overall the sandwich was okay but the bun was too dry and crunchy. The actual items of the veggie sandwich were okay but the bread was dry. The pasta salad was some of the best I have had anywhere. My meal would rate a 3.5 out of five. The other person had the Roasted Eggplant sandwich with green salad and coffee. Let me say this, we cook and eat eggplant quite often but have never had it as a sandwich item. The eggplant sandwich was described as terrible. The eggplant was tough and overcooked which when added to the dry bun was too much of a bad thing. The green salad was average. That meal would rate about a 2.0 or lower. The server was quick and courteous but for the first 10 minutes we were the only people there so what else did he have to do? We tried it once and it didn't leave an above average impression so with so many other places to go in New Orleans we won't be back.

Stopped here while on a weekend trip with a childhood friend who is a regular. At 7pm on a Saturday the place was dead. We ordered beers, but three of the kegs were out. Our waitress was as spacey as it gets, even for NOLA. However, once the crowd picked up and our food came, my impression completely changed. Pizza and eggplant app are wonderful! Some of the best I've had! Prices are very reasonable. I'll definitely be back!

I love this little place. It's one place I stop when I'm in New Orleans. Great for a daytime beer drinking place. Food is decent and the wait staff is nice. I love this interior of this corner restaurant. They have a little bar in there that you can sit at and people watch at sidewalk goers and other passers by. I recommend it.

One of my very favorite lunch spots in Nola. Ate there for the first time in eight years the other day and I swear the food hasn't changed a bit. Best turkey sandwich on planet Earth. How they get the bread so tasty will forever be a mystery to me. (Witchcraft?). Love love love.

Being hungry at 2 a.m. doesn't necessarily mean po-boys or burgers; Angeli on Decatur has pasta dishes, artisan sandwiches and wraps, salads, and other choices that are good for you (or at least not bad for you). I am a night owl and can vouch that it's hard to find anywhere else in the Quarter where you can find a yummy meal that you'd eat at any hour of the day, and your personal trainer wouldn't slap you upside the head.

Walking into this place and I'm immediately reminded of how much I love coming here. The walls are adorned with very interesting art. Some of which I would like to come home with me such as the hearts and angels. The pizza is quite delicious and brings me back time and time again. The cheese is really what makes it. It's gooey and creamy goodness makes me dream about the next time I"ll be coming back even while I'm still sitting there eating. OOO you know what else is awesome, they have pita with this tangy tomato dipping sauce so good and worth the try. AND I won't forget to include the salads, my favorite is the greek, but the others have their place in my thoughts as well. They are pretty big so if you want to share with your love or maybe just a friend feel free there will be enough for both of you. Small pizza and salad and you'll be good to go for the next few hours :) I Love the fact that they stay open so late as well, I have been known to waltz in after 1 a.m. on the weekends and you wouldn't know it was late by the sprite in their steps. YAY....! OH one last thing take a jacket because it can get a bit breezy when the fans are on.

My favorite late night place in new Orleans! It's Mediterranean. Here's what you need to try: Divine portobello- portobello mushroom with chicken in a creamy sauce served with pita bread Spicy red pepper spread with pita Angel wings Lucifer special pizza- meat lovers pizza with pepper This place is really good especially after a night of drinking. All walks of life come through here. The walls are painted with art and has ambient lighting. I used to come here after work all the time. I miss it!
(5)Brandy W.
Excellent place for a delicious lunch at a fair price. We both enjoyed our meals and the nice cool air on the hot summer day. Would love to go to a movie night sometime!

Let's start with the fact that I could eat Angeli's pasta salad everyday, all day. I actually googled to see if the recipe has been copied or posted anywhere online just so I could make it at home (no luck...help?). Everything I've ever gotten here has not only been delicious, but has really had a great homemade quality to it that makes me love it even more. The grilled chicken is moist. The sandwiches are great. The pizza/calzone crust is chewy perfection, and the meatballs in the calzone are exactly as spicy as I like--I almost don't have to add crushed red pepper. The Tequila Blues monstrosity just opened up across the street so it may be getting much busier...great for Angeli's, but I hope nothing changes! I agree with previous reviewers that it's just a tad dirtier/divier than I would like, but if you eat here all of that is overlooked easily. If you are in the quarter looking for a great casual meal, this is ALWAYS the place to go. Now I need pasta salad.

Chill place with friendly waiters and delicious food. I love love love to grab some hummus and pizza.

I had a really hard week, and i wanted a daiquiri, so my roommate and I trekked down to FQ for a daiquiri, but my favorite place was closed. :( so we kept walking to this place for dinner instead. For a late night eatery, it doesn't have the stench of a late night eatery. It's a sparse, but clean place. Quiet too. My roommate got the eggplant sandwich. It looked really good, and she was raving about it the whole time. According to her, the eggplant had great texture. I'm going to try that next time. I had the chicken pasta salad. when it arrived, it looked like a pile of brown mess. but it was very tasty and comforting. It was especially really good the next day when i added lettuce to it. (i like my salads lightly dressed) for the price you pay, it's a really good deal, and you can get 2 meals out of eat entree (seriously, i'm a big eater, so i was surprised that i would have left overs).

Was visiting New Orleans with a group of friends, searching for a break from the hearty cajun/creole fare that we had been experimenting with all trip. Angeli On Decatur was a delightful change of pace. First of all, the service is helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is laid-back with tons of cool and quirky art work on the walls. I particularly loved facing out towards the large windows in the front of the restaurant. Great people watching lol! We had: -Mystical Pizza: Gooey cheesey, meaty, deliciousness! Nice bits of crunchy red onion in there too for a contrast of textures -Greek Salad: Refreshing and large portions! -Pesto Pasta with Chicken: Wasn't blown away. The pasta was overcooked and the chicken was tough. Large portion Take home point: We tried such a limited selection on the menu that I can't comment on their other offerings. But definitely get the mystical pizza when you visit!
(4)Warpo M.
I've always gotten good food here ... prices are reasonable - the few times I've had pizza delivered, it was prompt, and hot. It's one of my fave places to go when getting together with a lot of friends. Plenty of room and an atmosphere, you can talk and be heard..
(4)Amanda G.
Good pizza! I stopped into Angeli for lunch while walking around New Orleans. The restaurant has a very cool look. I was hesitant because there were only two other people in there, but I'm glad we decided to try it. I ordered a pepperoni and portobello mushroom pizza. It came out quick and was delicious! If you are planning to visit the restaurant with friends, prepare to pay on one check. The back of the menu states "no separate checks and no separate payments".

Typical list when looking for food/Looking for food while intoxicated in the Quarter: Vegetarian dishes: Check If no vegetarian specific meals, Pizza?: Check Reasonable prices: Check Open almost every time I've walked by: Check There once was a thing called mimosas, and during Mardi Gras, those said mimosas sometimes got switched with vodka. Fast forward to lunch time during a brutal Saturday storm and we're strolling Frenchmen, soaked, starving and drunk, in search of food. We end up just past the rows of Jazz bars and in this fabulous dining establishment. Angeli has some of THE BEST pizza I've had and despite the rather interesting decor, I look forward to coming back here very, very soon.

Seriously - your bathrooms are this freakin nasty?? At a restaurant? I expect the bathrooms at the bars to be disgusting. This place was a joke. Last day in Nola and the significant something and I were getting some food in our belly and getting the heck out of dodge. This place billed itself as an Italian restaurant - but it was just a pizza joint with a couple of Italian dishes (alfredo, spaghetti, ...) Food: Awful. Caesar salad was trash. Had the powdered Parmesan same crap that was in the shakers to put on the pizza. Nasty old Romaine. I tried to pick out the wilted leaves, but there were just too many. Garlic "bread" with marinara was basically just a cheese pizza with the sauce on the side. Not sure where the garlic was. Pizza was a big let down. We'd been having pretty tasty New York style pizza as a late night snack on the strip. That pizza was delicious. This pizza was just a mess of cheese, pepperoni and grease. Did I say grease? Booze: I had a flat coke. The SS had an Abita. Atmosphere: Hot. Barely a hint of A/C. Bathrooms- nasty. Had the door propped open as well so anyone walking by could see what you're about. I am a frequent visitor to Nola. I am used to the nastiness of the bathrooms in the bars, but I do not expect this nastiness at restaurant. Service: We were the only table there. She would disappear. I had to ask her to take away all the dirty plates. . Summation: Don't bother. Way too many in and out joints on Bourbon selling some tasty pizza to bother with this place.

i've been here twice- once for late night food after a night on Frenchman, and on Christmas Eve with my family who was visiting (our Christmas Eve tradition is eating pizza). The place was almost entirely empty, but it was Christmas Eve, so that wasn't surprising. Our server was really friendly. We got cheesey garlic bread, a couple of pizzas, and a few beers. My parents were really happy with our decision to go there. The food and service were both great, although be aware of their policy of not splitting checks or taking separate payments. It wasn't a problem for us, but groups of random people should probably know that.
(5)Jared M.
Go here for lunch. The sandwiches are all superb and always get the pasta salad. I've never liked pasta salad and yet now I must have it.
(4)Amanda W.
I have a funny little story about why I love this place so much: a friend and I were starving one night and found Angeli on the interwebs, decided to give their delivery a go. We ordered two entrees and some tiramisu. They dropped off our orders and once we got inside we realized that they forgot our dessert (that we paid for already, otherwise we wouldn't have cared)! So my friend called the delivery guy's number, and though he seemed surprised he was very nice and agreed to go grab our tiramisu and bring it to us. That, my friends, is some bad a** customer service! Thanks, bike delivery guy! I came in here recently for my first eat-in experience and it didn't fail me. Yummy portobello peppery pasta, and my friend got a huuuge grilled chicken salad. The food isn't groundbreaking or anything, but it's yummy and filling enough to fuel a day in the French Quarter. I don't think that you could go wrong eating here!
(4)Shanna D.
Angeli, you have saved my drunken life more times then I care to admit! I usually stumble in during the wee hours of the morning. At that time, I'm hungry and desperately in need of large quanity of carbs enough to soak up the alcohol out of my system so I can drive home. Therefore, the cheezy bread sticks is always ordered first! The bread sticks are loaded with cheese and sprinkled with just a hint of garlic ....A-Maze-ing!!! I wish the marina sauce was better! My absolute favorite dish here is the Pasta Salad. It's a multi-color spiral pasta, mixed with Kalamata olives, tomatoes and tossed with a balsamic dressing. Yum! I love this place, for it's food, the ambiance, the eccentric paintings on the wall, and mostly for the people who wonder in and out of Angeli doors. Staff is always cool even at 3:00 am
(4)Mike H.
Me and my girlfriend had this pizza on the night out on the town after New Years and this place offered the best pizza hands down in New Orleans. I'm definitely coming back for more of it. The crust just melts in your mouth and the cheese taste so fresh. The waiters are nice too. Bomb.com !!
(5)James K.
You're going to like this place. It's got some pretty great art on the walls, they play great music (Vampire Weekend, TRS-80, Likki Li etc.) The pizza is good too and the beer, well it's cold Abita Amber (the local fav.) Go!
(4)erin J.
I recommend this place to anyone! My boyfriend and I arrived here late on a Thursday night with the help of my iYelp, and after going inside to make sure they were open (very dark and not highly populated) we took a seat and began debating over the menu. Okay, I know it's not traditional to rate a soda, but these sodas were great. Very sweet. Very refreshing. After quite a bit of consideration and telling the waiter we STILL weren't ready (which he was very cool about) I decided on a sausage calzone and my boyfriend got the Angeli special sandwich with pasta salad. The calzone was HUGE! I was a bit concerned it would try to eat me! But, the crust was cooked to perfection. Crusty on the outside and soft and slightly gooey on the inside. Cheese poured out of this thing! It even was cooked with a little sauce (which I'm only used to coming on the side) so I didn't need the side of sauce they provided. I wish I could have tasted more of the sausage but the cheese did overwhelm it a bit. The sausage was good though! My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his sandwich but he couldn't stop talking about the pasta salad. It had pieces of mushroom and roma tomatoes and was a little tart. We even got some of their tasty soda to go!
(4)Jeff C.
Late night Italian in the French Quarter with a decent menu? That works for me. Been here a couple times over the last few months and Angeli usually delivers a solid experience at a good price and has room for dinner (pre breakfast? Post-drinking meal... dreal?) for two or a table of 8.
(3)Lucy S.
I was already going to give this place a meh review for their uninspired take on spaghetti and meatballs...and then I went to the bathroom and was trying to choose between which of two revolting bathroom stalls to use...and all of a sudden a MOUSE runs by and dives behind the trash can. I screamed like a banshee from fright. No one came to see what was wrong with their customer screaming in the bathroom either, so that brings up another point against this place... You know what they say about mice. When you see one, it means there are dozens, hundreds, more, all of them using your food as a toilet. And back to those spaghetti and meatballs for a moment. I know that's something a five year old would order, but that doesn't mean you should execute the dish as if I haven't developed taste buds yet. This was a sad way to spend $11 in a city that's supposed to run laps around other American cities' cuisine. Cool art on the walls, though.
(1)Cinnamon G.
I live in the quarter and frequent Angeli for late night nibbles. I like its unassuming and down-to-earth nature. This isn't a place where there are scores of hipsters vying for scenesterdom. You won't find $12 for a single toasted ravioli drizzled with aioli and served on a bed of arugula here. If you want that experience, there are plenty of those places elsewhere. There's usually a mix of a little bit of everyone here, and you can feel comfortable just eating, being, enjoying conversation. Good food, generally good service, and very reasonably priced. Angeli is dark and dank in a good way, save the bathrooms. When I head to the bathrooms here, I almost feel like I'm about to check into one of those lunar-themed motel rooms with blue lights. I kind of like it, minus the waterbed. I haven't decided if this is intentional or not. The decor here is heroin chic high on folk art and cozy. I suppose that is partly why I keep finding my way back. I like to duck into this little place when the quarter isn't so busy and enjoy some of the best pasta salad ever. I'm not kidding, the pasta salad here is just about everything you want it to be and more. Get it, you won't regret it! I think you can get a giant heaping platter of it for $8 and I usually save half for lunch the next day! The hummus and pita are usually pretty tasty as well. The sammiches not so much, but their pizza is yum too! Once you taste the pasta salad, there might be some wrong turns on the menu, but not many. I would recommend it to just about anyone if you like to eat late at night in the quarter for a good price. Sometimes they play great music here too. It makes for a pleasant experience. Read this review and go!
(4)Jean-Paul V.
We are old acquaintances, are we not? I have known you for many years. You have nourished my palate, kept me kosher in inclimate weather, and visually distracted me with beautiful art and projected images. Your menu is spot on, and the service above bar for the FQ. Thank you Angeli! To many more years!
(4)Jason I.
Old School pizza/Sandwiches/salads. A great place to go if you are looking for good quality food that is affordable. They have two different types of bread appetizers. Order the one that is pizza-like with a marinade dipping sauce. It is the best tasting and very affordable. We were a party of five, and had Caesar salad, pizza, pasta salad, grill cheese sandwich and a meatball sandwich. I tasted everything, and everyone at the table gave the it meal an enthusiastic thumbs up (including me). Suggestion: if you order the grilled cheese, ask for a side of marinara for dipping. Service was just fine. We were there about 9:00 on a Friday night, and it was surprisingly slow. Food came out quick and the waitstaff was attentive. Total price for 5 people including one cocktail each and tip was $22.00.
(4)Lindsay A.
Angeli on Decatur is a good, solid Quarter restaurant with very reasonable prices. They have delicious pizzas, good hamburgers, and great pasta salad. This restaurant is a nice casual place to enjoy some good food after a day of trekking through the Quarter and open late enough to enjoy after some bar hopping. I will warn you though that the service is a bit off. You may find yourself standing in the doorway for a few minutes before someone acknowledges you. I suggest you just relax and take a seat. Grab a waiter the next time one passes by. Don't get all huffy. It's New Orleans and no one is in a hurry. Have a beer and enjoy the food.
(3)David W.
A great restaurant for late night eating in the Quarter. They have deliciously greasy food to coat the lining of your stomach with after an all night drinking session. I think I'm addicted to their pasta salad. Seriously good. The place is low-key and has a nice atmosphere with great big windows for people watching on lower decatur. Wait staff ranges from okay to great.... although that opinion is based on several years of eating here... I usually get grilled cheese which is served on a nice bread with spinach dressing. Yum. The garlic bread is also another favorite of mine. Cheap and delicious, just made sopping up alcohol. But, no matter what I get, I've never had a bad thing here.
(5)Julia B.
Food was good (3 stars) but the ambivalent service bordering on rude was very disappointing (0 stars) Not kid friendly / group friendly - don't bother going here if you have either!!! We chose this based on the recommendations of our hotel and Yelp for 3 families with 5 kids. The place was empty but for 3 other customers at 7pm on Thursday. Looking at the menu, I was taken aback by a full page of the menu dedicated to a dozen or so "no" statements / prohibitions in BOLD CAPS. I've never seen a restaurant do that - it was plain weird and felt very unwelcoming. The bartender seemed to be the only waiter and appeared annoyed to wait on us. He was distracted and wanting to get back to standing idle behind the bar - he got a drink order wrong and our appetizer order didn't even register for him. All but one dish came out and the last one took long enough I think he forgot it. At the end, I gave him the bill with 2 cards, suspecting the "no" statements didn't allow it but thinking splitting on two cards is just too easy. Sure enough, not allowed. It was just such a weird and totally unwelcoming experience.
(1)Jessica R.
This is my default restaurant when I'm hungry and I'm in/around the French Quarter. I love their food (though I always get the same thing, the spinach and artichoke sandwich), the service is attentive, and whenever I call to order delivery they're always really nice. I wish I had a better story about Angeli, but really, their sandwiches are awesome, the pizzas I've had are also great, and I eat there all the time. If you've ever been to Fellini's or Fresco Cafe (Mid-City and Uptown, respectively) and enjoyed it, then you'll definitely like Angeli. They're open late, they deliver, and I've never had to wait for a table. The food is good, inexpensive, and makes great leftovers. Win, win, win.
(5)Marisa X.
Great late night eat. The pasta salad is yummy. The peppery portabello sauce is great. Opens late also.

Greek chicken salad and bread sticks. Can't go wrong for lunch. Just wish they expanded to bywater area.

There are three certainties to an evening out in the fabled Vieux Carre: 1) At some point your feet will betray your sense of smell and lead you past an odor you hadn't thought even imaginable; 2) At a certain point you will feel the need to dance (fight the urge, Charlie); 3) Somewhere near the end of your evening you will embark upon a desperate almost Quixotic search for food. For you late night Quarter-goers, you need not look any further than Angeli on Decatur. Open late (11 A.M. to 2 A.M. Sunday through Thursday and open until 4 A.M. on Friday and Saturday) and with a wide variety of reasonably-priced and well-done menu items, Angeli is a perfect example of late night food done right. The Angeli Special, focaccia bread loaded with spinach, fresh mozzarella, basil, pesto sauce and bacon is a must have (try it with a side of the house pasta salad). For pizza lovers, you can't go wrong with the Virtuous Angel or Mystical pizzas, the latter of which is topped with a blend of mozzarella and feta cheeses atop a garlic herb sauce and finished off with sun-dried tomatoes, red onions and bacon. Angeli is located at 1141 Decatur St (between Governor Nicholls and Ursuline Ave) just a short walk from the French Market and Jackson Square.
(4)Edgar S.
I've got to say, if you ever see cops eating at the same spot you're at, it's a good sign. In the two weeks I was in town, I ate here twice and there were a couple cops having some lunch on both occasions. The pizza here is fantastic. I had the Lucifer's special both times and it was great. We also had a salad and some apps to start and it was all good. Bonus: getting away from the pretentious side of the quarter and relaxing and having a quality lunch without breaking the bank.
(4)Samantha J.
We stopped in for a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised by the food and service here.
(4)Jon M.
Solid pie in the big easy. The pizza was surprisingly fresh and well put together with tasty toppings and a perfectly cooked dough. Salad was fine, nothing to write home about though the balsamic dressing was quite good. Yet another example of rushed service. To the point that our server would literally only slow down as he walked past the table. When we made him stop at one point to put in a longer request he looked annoyed. Hmm. Service not such a big selling point in New Orleans so far. Decently priced and not too crowded on a Friday night during Jazz Fest. Did what we needed it to, which was fill out empty stomachs.
(3)nikki r.
Maybe you're in the mood for something non-Cajun. Maybe it's late and you need a midnight snack. Or maybe you just want some of the best freakin' hummus in the quarter. You go to Angeli's, eat your fill while watching some obscure film projection on the wall and leave smiling with leftovers in hand. For appetizers, Angeli's hummus really is the best. Kind of hard to screw up hummus (but I have!) but this stuff is really great and is served with warm pita and kalamata olives. Better yet, go for the sampler platter with the tomato spread and red peppers too. You could easily make a tasty vegetarian meal out of it. If you're in the mood for a sandwich, go for the Angeli's Special or the Italian Feast. They're both chock-full of deliciousness and come with a side salad or pasta salad. Both salads are dressed with the house vinaigrette which is so good I could almost drink it. Finally, if you opt for a calzone don't be a hog and order more than 3 stuffings. I got the chicken with mushrooms and bacon and it fed my boyfriend and me for two days.
(5)Sonia R.
Love this place. Can't wait to go back. In a nice location in the french quarter and somewhat difficult for tourists to find. My friend and I stumbled upon this place during french quarter fest. There menu is awesome and being a fan of both mediterranean food and italian food, this place was heaven for me as they do both really really well. Serivce was pretty good, atmosphere was really casual, laid-back. Cool place to hang out and get a bite to eat Pizza's are awesome, sandwiches too. Haven't tried their pasta but I definately will they next time I come back
(5)Candi D.
Excellent excellent EXCELLENT food & service! Our waiter was really welcoming, really cool, really kind. He had a sleeve of some random tattoos that I enjoyed looking at. He had everything from popcorn to Tony the Tiger. It was past midnight on a weeknight when we ate here. There were only a handful of people here, which was nice because it was a break away from the chaos on Bourbon Street. I had pizza and one of the BEST caesar salads that I've ever had. My friends and I enjoyed looking at all of the art on the wall. It was very unique. Next time we are in NOLA, we might have to come back here! One last thing, don't bring your friend here if they get loud and obnoxious when they are intoxicated. Why? I noticed a section in the menu stating that 18% gratuity will be added to your bill, but I would say that's totally fair. Who wants to deal with an obnoxious drunk when they're just trying to do their job? I would imagine these people deal with that nonsense a lot, though. Anyway - highly recommend this place!
(5)Harden T.
Been eating here since the first week they opened, oh so many years ago. After reading all of the other reviews, I won't go into long boorish details or try to change anyones minds about the place. You either like it, or you don't. To make it quick; The wife and kids and I eat here at least once every week and a half or so. I'm the pickiest eater in the family, and have food allergies, yet I keep coming back here. That should tell you something. We love the place and the people that work there, "nasty bathroom" and all. We love it so much, we drive from the West Bank to downtown just to visit, eat and hang out with friends. The service can be a bit spotty at times, depending on who waits on you, but it's getting better as they have some newer wait staff, and the good ones are still there too. Regardless of what you've read on here, do yourself a favor and at least stop in and try Angeli's out. You just might be surprised.

The unfortunate lack of full service late-night options in FQ led me to Angeli on Decatur, which came with recommendations from friends. After visiting late one Saturday night after a show at One Eyed Jacks, I think I can safely say that if Angeli was somehow the last restaurant left standing after the apocalypse, I would still have to think twice before darkening their door again. I made the unfortunate choice of ordering the hamburger with cheese and jalapenos (~$10). The waitress did not ask me how I wanted the burger cooked, which was the first sign of trouble. When I got the burger it was horribly overcooked - cremated, tough, flavorless, disgusting. It was covered with a congealed, plasticated blanket of what could only colloquially be called cheddar cheese. The bun was dry and flavorless, and had not been toasted or even warmed. The burger came with a tiny bag of Lay's plain potato chips. The whole thing was an insult to the idea of a cheeseburger. Two of my dining companions shared a large Lucifer's Special pizza ($18.50). I tried a piece, and while it wasn't as hideous and disgusting as the cheeseburger, it had a really unpleasant, thick, doughy crust which ruined the whole thing. The toppings were actually not that bad...the sauce, cheese and meats were much higher quality than the burnt hockey puck that they were calling a burger. Another of my dining companions ordered the Veggie Pita Roll ($7.25), which they said was good, although I am very, very skeptical of that assessment after tasting everything else. The restaurant is full of tacky art, and the late-night waitstaff are really eager for you to know that they don't like their jobs. Stay away.
(1)Todd A.
This place is GREAT...if you're really drunk and hungry...and there's NOTHING else open and you want cheap pitchers of beer too. Service was barely present. We really had to chase after them at times to get drinks or a check. The pizza tastes like a combination of Dominoes and the frozen Ellio's pizza....but really, not as good as either of those. I've eaten a lot of really good pizza, but I understand the function of the plain, decent slice of pizza too. This is many steps down from that.
(2)liz c.
I LOVED my time in New Orleans, don't get me wrong. The people, the vivacity, the music. But after day 4, the thought of eating another cajun or creole style meal began to wear on me. Enter Angeli. It was the most perfect intervention ever. Healthy pizzas, organic sandwiches, hearty salads. No local spices, no jambalaya, no seafood doused in cayenne pepper. Just grilled meats, fresh breads and FIBER in the form of uncooked veggies! Yes! The decor is insanely eclectic and would make your most native San Franciscan double-check her surroundings. Yep, we're still in NOLA, it just feels like we're in Lower Haight. Post modern murals plastered on the walls, along with loads of NOLA-centric artwork. I loved it. Even better was the BEST electro-pop mixes I have heard in a long time, playing overhead. I swear one of the songs was Jay Z with Duran Duran. Plus the service was AMAZING - fast, to the point and friendly. Anyway, if you need a break from the typical stuff, this is your best bet. I'd come back here in a heartbeat!
(5)Jerry S.
I miss the old movies they used to play but stop in whenever I make it to that side of the Quarter. Love the chicken sandwich, salads, and location. Prices are low for the Quarter too. I take friends there when they visit, all love it and it is not the usual stuff you get in the Quarter.
(4)Heaven M.
This is one of my FAVORITE places to go when I am in New Orleans. The best place for fresh, reasonably priced food. But here is a warning... you will be tempted to eat every single meal here. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and a few snacks in between. The food is delicious. I recommend getting their cheese bread with marinara dipping sauce. Here is a hint, it's actually a delicious pizza in disguise. Too tasty. Too perfect. I love their eggplant sandwich, I love everything here. This is fawning. But yes. Love it.
(5)Carrie M.
I've been going here since the second week after moving to this city 11 years ago and it has always been reliable, good food - and that's something we NOLA vegetarians don't forget. In fact its been one of the few places I was willing to brave quarter parking on a weekend night that wasn't going to involve going out for. The hours are great, especially for a between bars meal (and with a full bar of their own you need not stop drinking) :) The sandwiches are my go to, I love the bread. And the spicy tomato spread is great (although i wish they gave more pita)

We stopped in today for lunch (Thursday) and the place was empty, service and food were quick. I had the portabella sandwich, it was very good, substantial and the bread was crisp and satisfying. I got the green salad as the side and it was alright, decent side. My sister had a calzone with chicken, artichokes and sundried tomatoes. It was huge and the dough was very tasty. Decently priced, $8-11ish per entree item.

Anytime someone I know says they are going to Nola, I tell them they MUST go to Angeli on Decatur (before or after Cafe du Monde, whatevz). I really want this place to stay in business for years and years and years. It will always have a place in my heart. The staff are hella friendly and are more than willing to direct out of towners on where the locals go. The food - pause for flashback of me biting into their crazy good portabella sandwich - is absolutely mouthwatering. The location is prime. This place just rocks, ok? We left Nola for Houston and then Houston to Charlotte. We weren't planning on stopping by Nola on the way to NC but we did and for one reason alone - to eat at this place. Enough said.

You might think if you've had one grilled cheese you've had them all... but the grilled cheese here is a breed all it's own... not to mention you and your date can both get a meal and coffee for a grand total of $15 Love it.

Went here during Jazz Fest 2011. I am very familiar with New Orleans and not only visit every year for a week during the fest but also visit 2 or 3 other times throughout the year. I have ate here before on my way up to frenchmen st and thought the food was pretty good. However, walking in here for lunch one afternoon a couple months ago will be the last time I ever visit. My girlfriend and I walked in and it was very slow, maybe 6 people in the whole restaurant. We glance at the bartender and he just stares at us and says nothing. I look around and waitress notices us, nothing as well. We then decide to seat ourselves. The waitress walks by and looks at us and says nothing. Now we're getting a little uncomfortable. 10 minutes goes by and nothing was said to us. Then I notice the waitress steps outside and smokes a cigarette! We get up and I glance at the bartender and kinda shake my head and as we walk out the waitress just looks at us again and I say keep up the good work to her and we decided to head to Mona's and have a great lunch and treated the way two people should be treated when walking into a place to give them business. Normally I do not write reviews of restaurants but felt this was needed. I can not ever recall being treated so terribly in my life eating anywhere.

This was a nice, inexpensive place for lunch, but I wasn't impressed with my sandwich (the Angeli's special) or the pasta salad. The pasta salad had a little too much vinegar in it for my taste, and the sandwich just didn't have quite enough flavor for me. The service was also really slow. On the other hand, the lunch was cheap, the setting was nice, and we appreciated the vegetarian options.
(3)Johann M.
Stopped in for lunch on a recent cold day. The food was great - we said we were hungry and the hummus came flying out (figuratively). The sandwiches were VERY good, and the pasta salad was a very good side. Prices were reasonable, but they do charge you for everything. We asked for a little bowl of plain pasta for a 2 year old boy, and we were charged $6 for .30 cents worth of noodles. Requested additional pitas for hummus set us back another $1.25. With out being nickl and dimed, I probably would have given 4 stars.

Angeli has been a fairly regular haunt of mine since they opened. I didn't even live here then. After driving down for some lower Decatur debauchery, I would always eat here. However, it wasn't until last year that I tried anything besides the Divine Portabello. I figured that the rest of the menu was probably great, but I just couldn't part with that mess o' divinity. Finally, I decided to branch out and start seeing other dishes. I still hope the Divine Portabello can find a way to forgive me. So far, everything is pretty good to freakin' amazing with the exception of the Pasta Marinara, which is, apparently, a fancy way of saying "mediocre spaghetti." The pizza is one of the best in the Quarter, and the Angeli Burger stands out because it's served on panini bread instead of the usual roll. I ordered the burger with chips yesterday for a lunchtime delivery. Whoever answered the phone seemed to think that "chips" sounded a lot like "pasta salad," but hooray for serendipity. The pasta salad was excellent - almost certainly better than chips. Let's hear it for deaf people answering phones! Oh, right, they can't hear the applause. Just wave to them. In my humble opinion, they should dice the kalamata olives, though. That way there would be an even olive flavor to the salad instead of several bites without olive and then a bite in which olive is all you can taste. However, my new favorite thing here is the Angeli Special sandwich. Roasted red peppers make sandwiches awesome. If this sandwich was a woman, I would have dirty filthy porno sex with it. If I ever order one to go, who knows? I just don't want to get arrested for public fornication with a sandwich. The OPP regulars would tear me up for that one. But it is that good. Since smoking was banned in restaurants, Angeli isn't too jumping as a bar anymore, but the food and drinks are still wonderful. And if you're not into the whole "my lungs must be punished" scene (crazy fools, KOFF), Angeli is now a pretty relaxed place for drinks. It just seems like it used to be more lively. Overall, Angeli is a great place for affordable quality food. Start with the Divine Portabello appetizer, then get yose'f an Angeli Special sandwich. Your stomach will thank you.

I don't take a trip to the quarter for the purpose of eating here, but if I happen to be in the quarter, this place is one of the better bets for me. Especially after an evening of drinking. I don't like most of the restaurants in the quarter because they are either really expensive, which I dont visit on a whim, or they cater to the tourist fare offering gumbo and stuff- sorry, I eat the Louisiana creole/cajun fare quite often, so I don't feel the need to eat it out in the quarter. I don't even consider the oven lamp pizza on Bourbon as food, so moving on.... When I am looking for something simple and not expensive, Angeli's does the trick. They are open late, prices are reasonable, and the food has never disappointed me. The service can be hit and miss.
(3)Sheri M.
Overall pretty tasty and a positive experience, but.... we shared a Mediterranean Burger with pasta salad, and the Angeli Special Pizza. Way too much garlic and salt on the pizza (think the eggplant was the salt culprit) and the burger and pasta salad- both too heavily seasoned to compliment each other. Service started out painfully slow, but once we ordered, everything came out super quick and the waitress was pretty awesome.
(3)Brooke G.
Angeli's is our second home. We visit once a week, and get the same thing every time. Me: Chicken sandwich, Pasta Salad. James: Grilled Cheese, Pasta Salad. The bill is always incredibly low. Sometimes we get cheese bread and the pizza has always been awesome. This is not a place to go for service. It's an experience, though. Expect hipster music on the radio and a geeky throwback movie being projected on the wall above the bar. The uniform for employees seems to be the inspiration for most of American Apparel's bad ideas. americanapparel.net/gall… The servers are a little standoffish and even rude sometimes, and have very little patience for ambiguity. Trust me, though, the food is consistent and awesome, and they are fast to bring it when they're not busy. It's also cheap, and that's not necessarily common in the Quarter. Angeli is open late, and really good for stumbling drunk off Frenchmen. For that noble purpose, it's as close to fast food as you'll find this side of town-- I don't think there is a McDonald's within walking distance of Bourbon Street. A couple other things they don't tell you at Zagat: I don't care if it's August 25th or January 3rd, the temperature in Angeli's will have you longing for your favorite blanket. It's always FREEZING. I consider this a solid bonus. Further, the people-watching out the huge windows onto Decatur street makes for better viewing than most summer blockbusters. We've seen some memorable things out Angeli's windows. Wholeheartedly, I recommend this place for non-foodies and tourists who want to take a break from fried food.

One of the better spots. From pizza - hummus
(5)Traci F.
Short review. The pasta salad was NOT as good as you all said lol I suppose I was hoping for it taste a bit cleaner...fresher...idk the word i'm looking for but it was extremely mayo-y and I was not pleased. The chicken calzone, on the other hand, was super tasty! From the crust to the cheese, it was great!
(3)Laura C.
I really enjoy the pizza here. I've been iffy on the other stuff, but that may just be because I enjoy the pizza here so much. Especially the lucifer's special. Especially on good Friday. Mainly my complaint is that it's always cold in there and the wait staff in my experience hasn't been reliable. But my friends swear up and down it's rare. I just must go at the wrong times. But good Friday is always the right time.
(3)Brian L.
ordered a calzone-crap pasta with spicy meatballs-crap artichoke sandwich-awesome! hmmm 2 of the 3 dishes were crap so they get 3 stars. ambiance was meh I did like how they were playing hitchhikers guide the original on a projector. Other than that it was meh. oh yea service was meh. but they get 3 because the food was meh which is whats important.
(3)Aimee C.
OMG Amazing pizza - I can't remember the name but it had spinach, artichokes, and mushrooms on it. Sooooooo good! The decor was really cool too. I heart this place and will definately go back next time I'm in New Orleans!
(5)Julia M.
I'm a picky Yelper. I basically don't write reviews unless I really love a place; I suppose I should write reviews for the ones I hate, too, but I'd usually rather just forget that I ever ate there. And frankly, I don't think I've ever had SUCH a bad experience that I want to actively warn other people from ever eating somewhere. However, if I write a review for a restaurant, you'd better believe that it BLEW my ever-lovin' mind in some way. Angeli's was absolutely one of those places. My husband and I visited NOLA for two weeks on our honeymoon, and we spent quite a bit of time on Decatur Street. Not only was there a great liquor store where we could stop for go-cups on our way to other establishments, Decatur also had our favorite bar (1135 Decatur), our favorite coffee shop (EnVie), and Angeli. We stopped there the first time on a whim, because we were really hungry, it wasn't busy, it was only two doors down from the bar, and the menu looked decent. On that first visit, I was thoroughly impressed by their hummus. Made in-shop, very flavorful, smooth, and generously dolloped onto a plate with olives, tomatoes, and pita for dipping (and they didn't hesitate to bring more pita bread when we asked). Our server was polite, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. We chatted a bit about our hometown, asked for his recommendations, and weren't disappointed at all with our food. All very fresh, very tasty. Our second visit was a couple of days later. We were, I think, the first people in for lunch, and again we had an amazing waiter. Again, we asked for his recommendations, and he said, "get the pasta salad side. Seriously, just get it." I'd had the regular salad with my last order, so sure, why not? First off, our sandwiches (pita wrap this time) were top-notch again. Filling, fresh, hot, and you could really tell they put time and effort into preparing good ingredients. And the pasta salad....I just....oh my god. Perfectly-cooked pasta, perfectly seasoned, with chunks of olive, fresh tomato, fresh baby spinach, a superb balsamic dressing...it's been almost 7 months since we ate there, and I still drool over it. No joke, it is THE best pasta salad I've ever eaten, and this comes from a woman who worked 3 years as a production cook for a very successful grocery co-op with a top-notch deli. As the meal progressed, we discovered that this waiter was, if anything, even better than the first one. He was on the spot refilling our waters, offering beer refills, never pushy or in the way, but friendly, intelligent, humorous, easygoing, and just all-around perfect. When it came time to pay our bill, my husband and I didn't even hesitate in giving him a 50% tip...actually, the first time I've ever tipped a server more than 35%. As for the rest of the restaurant, well, perhaps it's my techno-hippie vibe, but it appealed to me greatly. Walls that were full of artwork made by locals, alternative rock on the overhead (a nice change from the ever-present bayou-centric tourist music played in most restaurants in the Quarter), great big windows to watch people go by, lots of nice old wood (floors, tables and chairs, walls, pretty much everywhere), and a decent selection of quality beers. The prices weren't jacked up, the food was excellent...honestly, it became another of our favorite spots in NOLA, and one we'd definitely send anyone else planning to visit.

I live in the area known as "The Pizza Capitol of the World". You can't spit without hitting a pizza place around here, and they are different in various ways, but you're hard pressed to find bad pizza in NEPA. So we've always found New Orleans to be lacking in good pizza places. But in a city known for its food, who cares if you can get a good pizza with so many other options right? Except that sometimes, you just crave pizza! Since we are spoiled by the multitude of amazing pizza places, we will never eat Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa Johns or Little Caesars. That would be like going to NOLA and eating at McDonald's or Subway. You just don't do it. But then we found Angeli's. Have walked by it many a time and a few years ago we finally decided to give it a try. We got the Lucifers special. It is sooo good! Love the hot peppers on the pizza. Crust is done just right and the sauce is tasty. Service is quick and they can accommodate large groups. We've even done take out and our pizza was cooked to perfection. Typical folksy New Orleans decor., sit at a table by the windows for people watching.

I've never eaten at the establishment, but I've consumed takeout several times. Angeli is a fantastic dining venue for vegetarians, in a city that is otherwise not very veg-friendly. The veggie burger is fantastic, however vegans be forewarned - there is egg in the bun, as well as the pizza crusts (so no cheese pizzas simply won't do here, bummer). I was misinformed of the egg contents (boo!) so I actually tried both so I'm going to go ahead and comment on them. The veggie burger used to come with two patties, which was beyond awesome - the bread is pretty thick and hearty so the two patties lent to a nice patty-bread ratio. However, the last few times I had the burger, the downsized it into one patty. *tear The patty comprises of some grains and nuts it seems - maybe a tad of TVP or something in there, but it's a nice mildly sweet veggie burger. The pizzas are amazing, as other reviewers have stated, even without cheese - but again, no point getting it sans cheese, unless you're lactose intolerant or hate cheese. They really do it up with the toppings, no skimping here and the specialty pizzas are perfectly concocted. There is a hummus wrap of sorts (the name escapes me) and it's easily veganized as I was informed (I hope correctly!) the actual wrap is vegan and you can just get it sans feta (it comes with mega garlic - yum!). However, it's nothing to write home about and I wouldn't go out of my way to eat it again. Kudos to Angeli for having vegetarian options . . . would be nice if they could start carrying vegan bread/dough.
(3)Russell W.
We had heard so much about Angeli's that I took my family there for lunch. We were quite pleased with the food - especially the sandwiches (wonderful bread). The hummus was good, but I think mona's is better. The divine portabella was also decent, but "divine" is a bit of a stretch. The atmosphere was good, some funky decor on the walls but nothing to write a novel about. Service was average. I will go back, next time I'm trying the pizza!
(4)Jaimie M.
We've been coming to Angeli for about 8 years now, and remains one of my favorite spots in New Orleans. Angeli was and is, a sweet and festive home base before a night out, perfect for grabbing a quick bite and relaxing a bit. I am a big fan of their delicious specialty cocktails, and very partial to their generous hummus and pita plate. (I am not a veggie myself, but I hear this place is an oasis for vegetarians in a particulary carnivorous city.) My partner will usually get their pizza (probably the best one you will find in town) and I can vouch that it's very tasty. Staff is sweet, kind of southern hipster-ish, and there's usually cute local art on the walls. A few people have told me that this is a big favorite of the Brangelina family when they are in town, and weirdly enough the current art display is a series of women who look uncannily like Angelina Jolie. I wonder if she likes this, or feels creeped out when she comes in.

Taste: 4 Value: 4 Service: 4 In an effort to carb load before the Rock n' Roll Mardi Gras, Evelyn, Rob, and I stopped by here after the wait for Mona Lisa was estimated at 1 hour. While waiting to be seated, an upset patron told us to leave because they thought it was absolute garbage. We were a bit concerned and asked a couple other patrons what they thought. All of them had positive responses. What we did find out was that they had run out of pasta. The night before a major marathon. Shame on them! Undetermined, we decided on the garlic bread with marinara, the house salad, and "lucifer's choice" specialty pizza. The highlight of the food is the crust. They do a great job with it. Fluffy and light, which still having a good amount of chewiness and density. The pizza's combination of peppers, sausage, pepperoni, red onion, and ham worked well. The service could have been better. They looked a bit stressed with the high volume. Our waitress was friendly, and did her best when giving us attention. If you're looking for pizza, this is a great place to go. Can speak of their pasta because they were out!
(4)James O.
Definately one of the best late night food places to be had in the quarter area. Nothing hit's the spot during a night of drinking like a 1am Angeli's pizza. Be forewarned, the garlic cheese sticks are essentially the same as the cheese pizza, with some garlic added and sauce removed. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just a tad redundant to order both :P. I'd give it more stars, but I recently went during the daytime (late lunch), and it's just not as impressive as when it's more full of action at night.
(3)Rexter C.
This was my go to spot during my first year at the University of New Orleans because of its late night hours. Oh the memories. Best wings and pizza along Decatur!
(5)Erica S.
This is also a great standby of the Quarter- a good place to go especially after a late night of drinking, or when you want a good solid food experience. The pizzas are really great.
(4)Jeff S.
Gave up on this place years ago, but was really happily surprised the other night. We stopped going after a few times of sitting in the almost empty restaurant and being ignored for 10 or so minutes by waitstaff that was cooly unconcerned...no big deal, plenty of other places in the city and we tip big, so we are happy to drop it elsewhere. Vegetarian Dad was in town and that usually leaves me scratching my head after the 3 we always take him for the casual meals (Benachin, Coops, and Mona's) but every place was slow and closing early and I agreed to go to Angeli just because everyone was on the verge of crankiness... Absolutely great waitress, sweet and helpful about the veggie options. The sandwiches were really good at 8 bucks including a green salad. Nice crunchy bread, big and filling. Pitchers of Abita for $10? Count me in on that, too. I'm a typically unhealthy NOLA eater, but every once in a while I get tired of shlopping up the fat (not often, just occasionally)...Angeli is back on top of the list for when we want casual, and healthier than usual food. Well, healthy for New Orleans, each veggie sandwich was thankfully covered with ridiculous amounts of goopy melted cheese. Yum. I get asked a lot about places to go by folks from California and such places who need a break from the torture we perform on our bodies (but not souls) with our food, I can recommend this place highly.
(4)Matherine G.
Positive: We were looking to grab some pizza in the quarter, but not the gross slices on Bourbon St. Man, did Angeli hit the spot. This pizza was incredible and reasonably priced. We loved some of the original pizzas (we had the celestial chicken pesto and the mystic pizza) The crust was perfect, delicious; buttery and garlic. We still dream about it. A small (11') pizza is enough for one person. Small (5$) corking fee. Negative: Service was lacking. We weren't greeted at the door, we weren't seated by anyone, and the bill took a while to get. Overall: Great pizza, probably the best in the Quarter, and some of the best pizza we've had in a long time. A nice change from Creole/Cajun food. We'd highly recommend it.
(4)Kort L.
Stumbled on this great place during my last visit. I have to say I'm embarrassed I never knew about it when I lived in town. Great food. Pizza was excellent so was the sandwich my daughter got but the best thing we had was the salad we ordered the Greek salad and didn't look at the dressing but it came with a sun dried tomato vinaigrette. I would eat that on anything. Had a great kick to it and the perfect amount of oil. I'm so sad this salad is 8 hours away from me now
(4)Trevor L.
Excellent salads and pizza. Tomato basil salad dressing is out of this world.
(4)Anthony K.
Best pizza and beer place in the french quarter.
(4)Edith K.
Nice place for a morning snack, don't expect to see the muffins or the scones they have a variety of sandwiches and it get crowded after 3 pm. Coffee? Just the regular type. No Cappuccinos. :(
(4)Frank F.
The Mediterranean burger is soooooooo good!! I love the alternative/hipster vibe here. Pasta salad: delicious!!
(4)Freya Z.
My husband and I came here after someone recommended it for good pizza. We decided after a night of drinking we would give it a try. We walked over and were seated immediately. The place was pretty slow at around midnight (I think?) when we went. From what I recall, they have a good variety of items on their menu, but since we were told the pizza was good, that is what we ordered. This place has some of the best pizza I've ever had! Who knew a place that serves all kinds of food could have such good pizza!! I like pizza with a crust that is somewhat soft (not crunchy) and has a little substance. Not super thick, but also not crepe thin. The flavor of the dough and sauce were impeccable. I think they're open til 1am, so it's a great, late-night eatery. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in N'awlins.
(5)Amanda C.
This place was a saving grace on my recent trip to NOLA. I'm a vegetarian, which makes finding food there incredibly hard. Finally decided to try this place on a Sunday and ended up eating there Monday and twice on Tuesday. Vegetarian or not, it's DELICIOUS!! I've had the pesto pasta, linguini alfredo, veggie burger, roasted eggplant sandwich, and the garlic bread. I haven't been disappointed, you should definitely check it out!!
(5)Berrius B.
We had the mystic pizza, and came back for the meat-laden pizza. Both were very good, and not like any pizza we have had before. The prices are very reasonable, especially for in the French Quarter. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Service was good.
(4)Anice S.
just moved to the area and wanted something cheap and easy for dinner. Angeli was all that and more. We got the 4 cheese, but substituted their garlic sauce that they advertised on other specials insted of the red sauce. Instant incredibly tasty white pizza. Great crust. It was delivered piping hot pretty quickly. We will DEFINITELY be going back.
(5)Sharon S.
*Update* This USED to be my favorite restaurant in the world, but... I feel the magic is gone. Every time I visit NOLA, I come here, hoping to regain the loveliness of days long ago. But.... The menu's changed. And they don't have syrup anymore for me to put in my coffee (but the dude waiting on us remembered that I used to do that, so points, I guess?). The pizza's still decent, and there's still Lower Decatur people watching to be had, but it's just not the same. Maybe I should gather all my college friends and we should meet up here some night, then see if that does anything?
(3)Katy G.
Food and service are both very average. Prices are resonable for the location. They deliver! Plan ahead though because it may take an hour or so to get your food.
(3)Patrick J.
A sandwich shop with an artsy rustic feel to draw in the tourists. Props for an extensive vegitarian menu. I'm not a vegitarian, but after so many days of heavy french and creole food, a portabella sandwich is just what the doctor ordered. The sandwich wasn't amazing, but passable. I would recommend to anyone looking for veggie sandwiches or something a little healthier than the standard Quarter fare.
(3)Sarah W.
So after being away from my beloved New Orleans for a year and a half, I was psyched to go back to Angeli for one reason: Blue Cheese Burger. I get there, sit down and low and behold THEY WERE OUT OF BURGERS!!! :( Seriously sad I settled for the Feta triangles with spinach (AMAZING) and a grilled cheese and pasta salad. They were all delicoius. Get the burger, if they aren't "out of burgers".. yes I'm a little bitter.. Maybe next year!
(4)A L.
Lunch here was wonderful! Had the portabella mushroom sandwich with a side of pasta and a salad. The service was quick and friendly. It's also open till 4am!
(5)Heather C.
I've been here several times. I'm a vegetarian and this is one of my favorite place to go in the quarter. There are several options, which is a nice change. I love their veggie buger. It's house made - Spicy black bean goodness. My husband really enjoys their portebella sandwich. The pizza is pretty tastey as well. Another plus is that they deliver. Which is great for the days I don't feeling swimming through tourist to get there.
(4)Kristin H.
I am a big fan of Angeli's. The first time I went, my best friend and I were sauced to the point of shoveling food into our mouths without care. I thought I remembered a good meal, but wanted to be sure, so Dave and I made up an excuse to go into the city so we could eat there. I am so glad to have gone sober!! While the sampler appetizer with hummus, sun dried tomato spread, roasted red bell peppers and flatbread were good, it was not great like I had romanticized. The pasta salad, even though I HATE olives, was great. Just be sure to like dill. Dill is one of my favorite herbs, so I relished i the pasta salad. Dave wasn't much of a fan, but his sandwich was satisfying enough. I had the portabella sandwich (so good, I want one right now), and Dave had the meatball sub (he ate the entire thing before I could get a bite). I can't wait to go back. I love that the place is on the outskirts of the quarter a bit, so it was away from the hustle and bustle of the district. For people who frequent the area, it's nice to get away when not entertaining out of town guests who want a hurricane and po' boy. If you get the chance, on the same street, there is a bar called the Turtle Bay Bar (?). Great bartender, tastes of beer if you're not too sure... fun and relaxing! Last time I was there, I saw John Malkovich with his grandkids walking down the street!
(3)Paul B.
OK, maybe I was drunk, but that was seriously one good bacon hamburger. And the pasta salad-- yum. And they delivered to the bar I was firmly planted in. Well, OK, I was definitely drunk, but I stand by my review.
(4)Andrew B.
Walked in on a Tuesday night with some friends. We are from out of town and it had good reviews. We were not disappoint. I got a pizza that was phenomenal. The rest of the group really liked what they got. Our only complaint was that the waiter/bartender wasn't attentive to drink refills. Other than that, great food, questionable service.
(4)Heidi B.
I love this place for lunch. The portions are HUGE and the prices are reasonable. You won't even be hungry when dinner rolls around, or you'll have a nice bit of leftovers. If you get a sandwich, pick the pasta salad as your side - it's delicious. All the food is creative with unique ingredients. Nice staff, too.
(5)Matt B.
Good service, better pizza. No complaints here.
(4)Allison J.
I have spent many a late night grubbing on pasta and salads at Angeli. I've never had a bad meal here and though... the food has never been mindblowing- it's consistently decent. In January 2008, I had couple of pizzas (veggie and a meaty one) and there was the perfect amount of sauce and lots of fixin's. The Greek salad was as good as I remembered from pre-Katrina. For all the places that I used to frequent, it's nice to come back to NOLA and have Angeli's be a constant source of food and entertainment.
(4)Jerrod A.
Showed up around 9pm on a Sunday (07/26/09) with a party of 3. We had no problem finding a table. Tori was our waitress took the order. She was polite and didn't bother us at all. We weren't that hungry, but we threw caution into the wind and ordered a large lucifer's special. The pizza was all I hoped. The cheese was gooy while the meat was not overbearing of the vegetables. I enjoyed the crust most. Light, flaky & crunchy. Albeit the sum of 18.50 for 8 slices was higher than I'm accustomed to, however the atmosphere of friendship and commoradery easily displaced the thought of money far from my mind. Go, enjoy!
(4)peter s.
This place was great BEFORE the sorm, a local secret. But now, it blows. Overpriced and the quality of the food is very poor. I have lived in NOLA 12 yrs and I will never go back, not even for a beer. It is a tourist trap!!!!
(1)Rusty M.
Great vegetarian options (hummus, etc.) and excellent pizza. Loved my salad, and the veggie wrap was excellent. Whole cloves of garlic in it--crazy! Supposedly Brad and Angelina haunted this place during their New Orleans days. Is it coincidence that the Elvira-looking women in the art on the back wall have an Angelina resemblance?? I think not!
(4)Michelle W.
I was in NOLA on business for 4 days and ate at Angeli twice. Twice! Before I left California, I was committed to breaking my commitment to vegetarianism for the sake of seafood in NOLA. But thanks to hotel food and Angeli, I didn't need to (which may or may not be a good thing). The sampler plate and pizzas were yummy at Angeli. Good beer, good service, good times. Very laid back pubbish environment. Minus one star for the mouse we saw on the floor in the dining room. !! Total violation of the heath code, I'm sure. My coworker told me not to alert management because - gasp! - they would surely kill it (which may or may not have been a bad thing!). I don't care what they say about old cities and mice going hand-in-hand because mice belong in a snake's stomach, not the dining room of a restaurant!

I visit this place everytime I'm in New Orleans! It's always the best place to eat! The food is great and has vegetarian choices to please all!! Always adding new items and keeping old ones too! The best place for late night! Halloween weekend, movies were shown on the wall so dinner & a movie. I had the hamburger with bacon and wow! it was really good,went back again, but with Halloween crowds they ran out of burgers so had pizza, just as pleased, The wait staff are super friendly, glad to see Angeli lives on, my #1 choice!

My first time in New Orleans, and I spent more time in Angeli than anywhere else. Thank God for them, too. Open late, and serving delicious food in a lazy, comfortably open atmosphere. If I lived here, this would be the place where I would sit to read books. Kudos for the black and whites projected in back of the bar. My roasted eggplant panini sandwich was cooked in some kind of wonderful, with an absurdly rich and tasty pasta salad with a vinegary kick (those kalamata olives will get you...) and a fresh greens salad. The eggplant was warm and buttery, with an amazingly smooth tomato aioli, and the deep-dish pizza style bread was crisp and perfectly seasoned. Such a satisfying, more than generously portioned, and somewhat healthy meal. Everything down to the ruby tomato slices was fresh-made and worth the pleasantly long wait. I spent almost five hours here one night. Tip extra for the casual, almost East-Village waiters. Do not use the bathroom while here, unless you like bar stalls which haven't been cleaned in a while. Sorry. I had to warn you.

Veg heaven, especially for those that like vegetables, and not just meat surrogates. They do magical things to eggplant. The eggplant sandwich was out of this world, as was the pizza I had with eggplant (Angeli special? forgot the exact name). With the pizza, be prepared for garlique - whole cloves abound. Same for the veggie wrap, which also got rave reviews from my dining partner in crime. Portions are plenty big. Both visits left me wishing I had a fridge in my hotel room. Service was super friendly and quick on both of my visits. Bathrooms are diiiirty, but I've seen worse. This place is definitely chill enough for a good solo meal if you're in town by yourself for a convention or some such as I was. Grab a table by the window and enjoy the people watching.

Thank goodness for Yelp while on vacation!! My boyfriend and I were looking for a good vegetarian friendly restaurant in the french quarter and came across Angeli's through a Yelp search. This place was great! So great that we ate there two nights in a row (and had the same waiter both times). The sandwich selections were great but we didn't end up try any of the pizza. We really enjoyed our dining experience(s). I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a yummy meal that isn't a tourist trap with an exponentially long wait.

When I lived in the Quarter this was my staple. Pita Points and hummus, french fries and a milkshake. I'd come here and watch the movies late at night. It seemed almost magical, not the healthy kind of magical, but just as good.
(4)Zoey C.
I'm pretty much in love with this place. Rumor has it that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are too. You'd think the restaurants in the city of New Orleans would be open late night, but most seem to close at 9.30pm on week nights. After walking around the french quarter late night in a starved crazed mood, we stumbled across Angeli. The place has a laid back atmosphere with an array of cool art on the walls. The staff are, with piercing's and all, just as cool. I feared for a moment that my very straight laced catholic mother would feel out of place in such a hip atmosphere, but they welcomed her with friendly faces. The food is good. Especially the pizza, which has a dough that taste like the homemade stuff I ate as a kid on pizza nights. Compared to all the other restaurants/bars in the french quarter, the prices here KICK ASS!!! $2.50 for a bourban on the rocks?? Hello I love you. I can honestly say that I had one of my better meals here, then in any of the hyped up foodie places that charge you five times more for sub par crap in the city. I only wish this place was in my own neighborhood and that I would have given the guy who cleared our table my number. PS..The night I was there they happened to be playing 'Family Guy' episodes on a huge movie screen. AWESOME.
(5)Lucy B.
Delicious! We got the pizza with chicken, pesto, sun dried tomatoes and olives.. it was absolutley delicious. We also had the chicken alfredo pasta, that was awesome too, probobly the best alfredo I've ever had. Our server was super sweet and super attentive, the place was almost packed and she was working it I think alone. She was awesome. She had reddish/orange hair and some funky tattoos, the best!
(5)Sarah E.
Visiting NOLA for the weekend - the husband and I tried to go to Central Grocery on Monday for a muffaletta but Central Grocery is closed on Mondays so eventually we wound up at Angeli - WOW - what a pleasant suprise. We split a greek salad and 10" pizza, which was more than enough food for two hungry people - and both things were delicious. We especially liked the dressing for the salad and the pizza crust. Yum!
(5)Leanne M.
OMGness! if I was to start a restaurant, it would be exactly like this. I kept exclaiming with delite at every little detail! gorgeous vintage interior- with lots of class & charm. projected movies on the wall, and yummy yummy hummus. a haven for visiting veg-heads in New Orleans! Plus, it's right on Frenchmen Street so we checked out some live blues afterwards.
(5)Jeanette C.
The service ranges from mediocre to bad. But the food is delicous and when I'm on vacation I'm OK with waiting longer than I would at home. We always eat here at least once while in New Orleans and I plan to continue the tradition.
(3)Catherine B.
I think this place is great - it was honestly a breath of fresh air from the other places in New Orleans I had found to eat. It can be hard to eat healthy with some variety in this city, and Angeli made it possible. (It also made it possible for my picky vegetarian co-worker to find more to eat than a boring veggie sandwich from Quizno's) I love the pita sandwiches, and the flatbread. And I like that you can sub the pasta salad for the chips with your meal. The pizza is good too! The service is friendly, and they'll deliver to the central business district hotels, which was awesome.
(4)Gerlaine B.
I love Angeli. I crave the portebella sandwich. Definitely not the place to go if you are in a hurry. It's a comfortable atmosphere. I tend to like places that aren't full of pretense. I have my niece hooked too. Whenever she comes in town, we try to go elsewhere, but usually end up here.
(4)Cam s.
Love Angeli's! The bread is amazing, the pizzas are spectacular, the beer is local (Abita) and frosty-cold. When in the steamy heat of NOLA, it doesn't get much better than a beer-iceburg in your glass. But the food is what keeps us coming back. The salads are fresh and loaded with all sorts of yummy things. The pastas are great, the sandwiches are out of this world. I love the roasted pepper/portabello/eggplant loaf of yumminess. I have always had great service there, so I am not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about: greeted at the door? Why? Took too long to get the bill? Really? Who wants a bill, and when you are in NOLA, every meal is leisurely! Be prepared to spend time relaxing, chatting, and enjoying yourself. put down the freaking iPhone or Crackberry, and get reacquainted with the love of your life! Or at least enjoy the great food and atmosphere. Go to Angeli's. Enjoy yourself.
(4)Thuy N.
PRE-KATRINA REVIEW! Love love love this place. Unique and tasty food! Yummmmy! Had the veggie burger where it is HOME-MADE (none of that frozen Gardenburger pass-offs). Had the salad, but totally stole my friend's fries - SO GOOD. I remember this portabella/spicy chicken appetizer dip, served with warm and chewy pita triangles. SOOOO DIVINE!!!! AHHH! I love the atmosphere, it's really eclectic and totally all inclusive. Yummy!
(5)Robert H.
Been here a few times. Disappointed every time. I think this place tries to hard to be hip and cool and looses touch with ingredients that make this type of food great.
(3)Aaron B.
Ordered the Chicken Diavolo pizza and garlic bread. Moderately expensive and the 'large' pizza wasn't that big. It was pretty good though, but nothing out of this world. They delivered and it was quick.
(3)Amish S.
This was the first place we ate on the last trip to NOLA and we ate there many times after. The pizza is crazy good and I had something else besides pizza, but pretty much every time we got there I was already trashed, ha, so I can't remember.
(5)Erica M.
OK so the food is great.....but I had to give them 2 stars because the staff is for the most part HORRIBLE. I used to go there, pick up, and have food delivered alllllll the time but have recently stopped due to horrible service. If you go in and sit down it is pretty much hit or miss....i have had one extremely nice waitress but the others there do not look like they give a F at ALL. Expect to get ignored if you go in there to eat. Also....I am semi-picky...I'm a vegetarian...so I used to order my favorite sandwich a particular way....without ONE of the vegetables...and after a while they told me that they could not do it this way, even after CHARGING ME $2.00 EXTRA to have the vegetable TAKEN OFF like they had done many many times in the past. I even asked if I could just have that veggie on the side....and i got a big fat NO. Occasionally now if I call in they will do it for me, but it's hit or miss. Also, just a side note, but the guys that deliver are a little scary...I'm kind of scared to take my food from them, they look like they haven't showered in a week or so! ha! anyway.... I've pretty much given up on them. The food is pretty good but the bad service is just not worth it to me.
(2)Armand A.
I tried this place last weekend, and I was in for a delicious surprise. The place was not busy and its air-conditioned dining area was a welcome oasis from the humid, hot weather outside. It boasts many different sandwiches and pizzas on its small menu, but the pizza diavolo was to die for: generous portions of chicken topped the amazingly spicy sauce, the diavolo in its name. For those of you seeking a fiery pizza, this has got your name on it (oh, and you can even add jalapenos to it). The side pasta salad that accompanies the sandwiches is deliciously different from your typical, bland side pasta salads that way too many places serve. True to the other reviews, the service can leave a lot to be desired. Our server started strong, but once she had a few more tables, her service turned lackluster. Despite this small flaw, I will return to this place to have that amazing pizza and to try some of their sandwiches. This place is a definite must if you're in the French Quarter!
(4)Emily M.
The fact that I've only visited this place while creating or nursing a hangover should not distract from the fact that everything is delicious--pizza, hummus, sandwiches...they do it right here. The waiters are always cute and have more piercings than you. Come in at the right time and enjoy a movie projected onto the bar.
(4)Claire S.
Large portions of deliciousness at Angeli! I got the spinach artichoke sandwich with the pasta salad. Both were really great and the leftovers the next day were just as good. I'd definitely come back here on my next visit to NOLA.
(4)Kelly H.
SO TASTY! My friend and I went and I was starving and talked her into an appetizer and we both got sandwiches. Doesn't sound like much but we have leftovers and I was sooooo full! Huge portions and so freaking yummy. GO GO GO!
(4)Sarah R.
The service is a little wonky late-late at night, but I guess that's to be expected. The pizza is good, the hummus tasted kinda weird, but all in all, it consitently hits all the drunken-binge-eating spots.
(3)Cole B.
Angeli is definitely one of my favorite eateries in NOLA.. and usually one of my scheduled stops if the drinks havent infected my sense of direction. I would've given the place 5 stars, however, the feta triangles (phyllo dough with spinach and feta) dont have enough spinach. But other than that, everything is good on the menu, just about everything. The pizzas, arent your normal fare, super hearty/rich. Everything is pretty good, compared to the slop you can find at other places late at night. Don't miss out.
(4)Emily L.
I have eaten here many times and love the pizza. Also the portobello pasta is spicy (very good). The bathroom is nasty .. but I try not to use it. I also caught a glimpse the last time i went there of one of the servers picking food off an order and eating it before taking out to the floor. Freaked me out a little but I took a good look at the guy and will be on the watch for him! I will say that the food tasted good enough for me to seriously consider going back.
(3)Jason A.
The pizza is fantastic, as is the pasta salad. Great for people watching. Lots of options for vegetarians. No separate checks though.
(5)Jack K.
Good atmosphere. Pasta was way overcooked. Certainly not al dente the way I like it. Sauce was way too heavy-laden with cream. But the service was friendly and attentive. Laid-back bohemian atmosphere.
(2)David M.
The food, was good. The pizza was tasty and they had some good options. The Eggplant Divine was really tasty with a sauce that made you wanted to lick the bowl. The calzone looked like one of the best I have ever seen. There was a decent selection of beer, both bottles and on tap. The food even came out quickly, but getting an order in took forever. It might have just been a busy Saturday night in New Orleans, but once we finally got our table it took the waitress almost 30 minutes to come over and even get our drink orders. Not to mention coming back ten minutes later for our food order. While we were waiting, the place is a seat yourself, one of the guys with us was trying to get a pitcher of beer. After fifteen minutes I asked him what was taking so long and he said the bartender was completely ignoring him and yelling profanities at some girl. He had to get a local to stop the bartender long enough to his pitcher. So, the food was good, but the service was not.
(3)Jessica T.
We ended up here because we waited too long to make a reservation anywhere else and had a hungry 3 year old in tow. It seems that the only good thing about this place is that it tends to be empty so you can always get a seat. There were seven of us. We ordered salads which were huge but totally mediocre and covered in Kraft Parmesan cheese. The pizza was boring--not enough cheese and a crust that could break teeth. The pastas were also huge but on par with something you could dump out of a jar at home. On the plus side, the drinks were strong. On the minus side, everything else.
(2)Elizabeth B.
GO HERE. NOW. Nooope, wait, on second thought, don't. Let's keep it our little secret. A friend of mine went to NOLA last year for Jazz Fest, I couldn't even remember the name of the place or even if it was still open post-Katrina, but I found myself texting him directions to get there at 1:00 am. It's just that ridiculously good. The Divine Portabella--named that for a reason. One of my favorite haunts when I lived in this most amazing of cities full of good food...
(5)Erica B.
Went for lunch on a Friday afternoon. My friend and I split a portobello sandwich and an artichoke spinach sandwich. Both were really tasty, and generously portioned. Service was slow but friendly, and our food came out pretty quickly after ordering. A good selection of vegetarian options; I will definitely return.
(3)Tuna D.
Used to come here all the time for late night eats. Hummus plate is off the chain, so were their chicken wings, i dont know what they do with them but it always taste great with the bleu cheese, roasted red peppers with the humms is awesome. Only problem is looking for parking in the Quarters
(3)Genevieve B.
The pasta salad or the french fries?! They are both amazing, and the burgers, and the piza and the portabellas, and I don't usually like mishrooms... I'm starving, and with much of the food I've had here in LA its no wonder there are no many anorexics in Hollywood.
(5)Jude F.
Excellent salads and hot and cold pasta, and their hours can't be beat. Frequently showing weird movies with the volume off.
(4)Zachary A.
Angeli is the requisite hip eatery on Decatur. Now a veteran on the street, the food is above average and fairly priced, but you might have a hard time with the service. Great place to people watch, or to sit and read on a stormy night.
(4)Ashley B.
Angeli is a personal favorite of mine. Open till 4am on the weekdays and 24hrs on Friday and Saturday, it's perfect for the end of the evening wind-down. Old films are projected onto the wall behind the bar, and if that doesn't keep you occupied until your food eventually arrives, you can watch the rag-tag late night strollers walk past the windows. Their pasta salad is divine (vinegary but with smooth flavor and chunks of tomatos and kalamata olives). Both the Angeli Special and the Portabello Mushroom sandwiches are delicious. Bring a cardigan, it's always freezing inside.
(4)mark m.
good place to eat, famous for their hummus.
(4)Marisa X.
Great late night eat. The pasta salad is yummy. The peppery portabello sauce is great. Opens late also.
(4)D V.
Greek chicken salad and bread sticks. Can't go wrong for lunch. Just wish they expanded to bywater area.
(3)Chuck A.
There are three certainties to an evening out in the fabled Vieux Carre: 1) At some point your feet will betray your sense of smell and lead you past an odor you hadn't thought even imaginable; 2) At a certain point you will feel the need to dance (fight the urge, Charlie); 3) Somewhere near the end of your evening you will embark upon a desperate almost Quixotic search for food. For you late night Quarter-goers, you need not look any further than Angeli on Decatur. Open late (11 A.M. to 2 A.M. Sunday through Thursday and open until 4 A.M. on Friday and Saturday) and with a wide variety of reasonably-priced and well-done menu items, Angeli is a perfect example of late night food done right. The Angeli Special, focaccia bread loaded with spinach, fresh mozzarella, basil, pesto sauce and bacon is a must have (try it with a side of the house pasta salad). For pizza lovers, you can't go wrong with the Virtuous Angel or Mystical pizzas, the latter of which is topped with a blend of mozzarella and feta cheeses atop a garlic herb sauce and finished off with sun-dried tomatoes, red onions and bacon. Angeli is located at 1141 Decatur St (between Governor Nicholls and Ursuline Ave) just a short walk from the French Market and Jackson Square.
(4)Edgar S.
I've got to say, if you ever see cops eating at the same spot you're at, it's a good sign. In the two weeks I was in town, I ate here twice and there were a couple cops having some lunch on both occasions. The pizza here is fantastic. I had the Lucifer's special both times and it was great. We also had a salad and some apps to start and it was all good. Bonus: getting away from the pretentious side of the quarter and relaxing and having a quality lunch without breaking the bank.
(4)Samantha J.
We stopped in for a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised by the food and service here.
(4)Jon M.
Solid pie in the big easy. The pizza was surprisingly fresh and well put together with tasty toppings and a perfectly cooked dough. Salad was fine, nothing to write home about though the balsamic dressing was quite good. Yet another example of rushed service. To the point that our server would literally only slow down as he walked past the table. When we made him stop at one point to put in a longer request he looked annoyed. Hmm. Service not such a big selling point in New Orleans so far. Decently priced and not too crowded on a Friday night during Jazz Fest. Did what we needed it to, which was fill out empty stomachs.

Maybe you're in the mood for something non-Cajun. Maybe it's late and you need a midnight snack. Or maybe you just want some of the best freakin' hummus in the quarter. You go to Angeli's, eat your fill while watching some obscure film projection on the wall and leave smiling with leftovers in hand. For appetizers, Angeli's hummus really is the best. Kind of hard to screw up hummus (but I have!) but this stuff is really great and is served with warm pita and kalamata olives. Better yet, go for the sampler platter with the tomato spread and red peppers too. You could easily make a tasty vegetarian meal out of it. If you're in the mood for a sandwich, go for the Angeli's Special or the Italian Feast. They're both chock-full of deliciousness and come with a side salad or pasta salad. Both salads are dressed with the house vinaigrette which is so good I could almost drink it. Finally, if you opt for a calzone don't be a hog and order more than 3 stuffings. I got the chicken with mushrooms and bacon and it fed my boyfriend and me for two days.
(5)Sonia R.
Love this place. Can't wait to go back. In a nice location in the french quarter and somewhat difficult for tourists to find. My friend and I stumbled upon this place during french quarter fest. There menu is awesome and being a fan of both mediterranean food and italian food, this place was heaven for me as they do both really really well. Serivce was pretty good, atmosphere was really casual, laid-back. Cool place to hang out and get a bite to eat Pizza's are awesome, sandwiches too. Haven't tried their pasta but I definately will they next time I come back
(5)Candi D.
Excellent excellent EXCELLENT food & service! Our waiter was really welcoming, really cool, really kind. He had a sleeve of some random tattoos that I enjoyed looking at. He had everything from popcorn to Tony the Tiger. It was past midnight on a weeknight when we ate here. There were only a handful of people here, which was nice because it was a break away from the chaos on Bourbon Street. I had pizza and one of the BEST caesar salads that I've ever had. My friends and I enjoyed looking at all of the art on the wall. It was very unique. Next time we are in NOLA, we might have to come back here! One last thing, don't bring your friend here if they get loud and obnoxious when they are intoxicated. Why? I noticed a section in the menu stating that 18% gratuity will be added to your bill, but I would say that's totally fair. Who wants to deal with an obnoxious drunk when they're just trying to do their job? I would imagine these people deal with that nonsense a lot, though. Anyway - highly recommend this place!
(5)Harden T.
Been eating here since the first week they opened, oh so many years ago. After reading all of the other reviews, I won't go into long boorish details or try to change anyones minds about the place. You either like it, or you don't. To make it quick; The wife and kids and I eat here at least once every week and a half or so. I'm the pickiest eater in the family, and have food allergies, yet I keep coming back here. That should tell you something. We love the place and the people that work there, "nasty bathroom" and all. We love it so much, we drive from the West Bank to downtown just to visit, eat and hang out with friends. The service can be a bit spotty at times, depending on who waits on you, but it's getting better as they have some newer wait staff, and the good ones are still there too. Regardless of what you've read on here, do yourself a favor and at least stop in and try Angeli's out. You just might be surprised.
(4)Jonathan D.
The unfortunate lack of full service late-night options in FQ led me to Angeli on Decatur, which came with recommendations from friends. After visiting late one Saturday night after a show at One Eyed Jacks, I think I can safely say that if Angeli was somehow the last restaurant left standing after the apocalypse, I would still have to think twice before darkening their door again. I made the unfortunate choice of ordering the hamburger with cheese and jalapenos (~$10). The waitress did not ask me how I wanted the burger cooked, which was the first sign of trouble. When I got the burger it was horribly overcooked - cremated, tough, flavorless, disgusting. It was covered with a congealed, plasticated blanket of what could only colloquially be called cheddar cheese. The bun was dry and flavorless, and had not been toasted or even warmed. The burger came with a tiny bag of Lay's plain potato chips. The whole thing was an insult to the idea of a cheeseburger. Two of my dining companions shared a large Lucifer's Special pizza ($18.50). I tried a piece, and while it wasn't as hideous and disgusting as the cheeseburger, it had a really unpleasant, thick, doughy crust which ruined the whole thing. The toppings were actually not that bad...the sauce, cheese and meats were much higher quality than the burnt hockey puck that they were calling a burger. Another of my dining companions ordered the Veggie Pita Roll ($7.25), which they said was good, although I am very, very skeptical of that assessment after tasting everything else. The restaurant is full of tacky art, and the late-night waitstaff are really eager for you to know that they don't like their jobs. Stay away.
(1)Todd A.
This place is GREAT...if you're really drunk and hungry...and there's NOTHING else open and you want cheap pitchers of beer too. Service was barely present. We really had to chase after them at times to get drinks or a check. The pizza tastes like a combination of Dominoes and the frozen Ellio's pizza....but really, not as good as either of those. I've eaten a lot of really good pizza, but I understand the function of the plain, decent slice of pizza too. This is many steps down from that.
(2)liz c.
I LOVED my time in New Orleans, don't get me wrong. The people, the vivacity, the music. But after day 4, the thought of eating another cajun or creole style meal began to wear on me. Enter Angeli. It was the most perfect intervention ever. Healthy pizzas, organic sandwiches, hearty salads. No local spices, no jambalaya, no seafood doused in cayenne pepper. Just grilled meats, fresh breads and FIBER in the form of uncooked veggies! Yes! The decor is insanely eclectic and would make your most native San Franciscan double-check her surroundings. Yep, we're still in NOLA, it just feels like we're in Lower Haight. Post modern murals plastered on the walls, along with loads of NOLA-centric artwork. I loved it. Even better was the BEST electro-pop mixes I have heard in a long time, playing overhead. I swear one of the songs was Jay Z with Duran Duran. Plus the service was AMAZING - fast, to the point and friendly. Anyway, if you need a break from the typical stuff, this is your best bet. I'd come back here in a heartbeat!
(5)Jerry S.
I miss the old movies they used to play but stop in whenever I make it to that side of the Quarter. Love the chicken sandwich, salads, and location. Prices are low for the Quarter too. I take friends there when they visit, all love it and it is not the usual stuff you get in the Quarter.
(4)Heaven M.
This is one of my FAVORITE places to go when I am in New Orleans. The best place for fresh, reasonably priced food. But here is a warning... you will be tempted to eat every single meal here. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and a few snacks in between. The food is delicious. I recommend getting their cheese bread with marinara dipping sauce. Here is a hint, it's actually a delicious pizza in disguise. Too tasty. Too perfect. I love their eggplant sandwich, I love everything here. This is fawning. But yes. Love it.
(5)Carrie M.
I've been going here since the second week after moving to this city 11 years ago and it has always been reliable, good food - and that's something we NOLA vegetarians don't forget. In fact its been one of the few places I was willing to brave quarter parking on a weekend night that wasn't going to involve going out for. The hours are great, especially for a between bars meal (and with a full bar of their own you need not stop drinking) :) The sandwiches are my go to, I love the bread. And the spicy tomato spread is great (although i wish they gave more pita)
(4)Jessica K.
We stopped in today for lunch (Thursday) and the place was empty, service and food were quick. I had the portabella sandwich, it was very good, substantial and the bread was crisp and satisfying. I got the green salad as the side and it was alright, decent side. My sister had a calzone with chicken, artichokes and sundried tomatoes. It was huge and the dough was very tasty. Decently priced, $8-11ish per entree item.
(4)Brooke G.
Angeli's is our second home. We visit once a week, and get the same thing every time. Me: Chicken sandwich, Pasta Salad. James: Grilled Cheese, Pasta Salad. The bill is always incredibly low. Sometimes we get cheese bread and the pizza has always been awesome. This is not a place to go for service. It's an experience, though. Expect hipster music on the radio and a geeky throwback movie being projected on the wall above the bar. The uniform for employees seems to be the inspiration for most of American Apparel's bad ideas. americanapparel.net/gall… The servers are a little standoffish and even rude sometimes, and have very little patience for ambiguity. Trust me, though, the food is consistent and awesome, and they are fast to bring it when they're not busy. It's also cheap, and that's not necessarily common in the Quarter. Angeli is open late, and really good for stumbling drunk off Frenchmen. For that noble purpose, it's as close to fast food as you'll find this side of town-- I don't think there is a McDonald's within walking distance of Bourbon Street. A couple other things they don't tell you at Zagat: I don't care if it's August 25th or January 3rd, the temperature in Angeli's will have you longing for your favorite blanket. It's always FREEZING. I consider this a solid bonus. Further, the people-watching out the huge windows onto Decatur street makes for better viewing than most summer blockbusters. We've seen some memorable things out Angeli's windows. Wholeheartedly, I recommend this place for non-foodies and tourists who want to take a break from fried food.
(5)Ricky G.
One of the better spots. From pizza - hummus
(5)Traci F.
Short review. The pasta salad was NOT as good as you all said lol I suppose I was hoping for it taste a bit cleaner...fresher...idk the word i'm looking for but it was extremely mayo-y and I was not pleased. The chicken calzone, on the other hand, was super tasty! From the crust to the cheese, it was great!
(3)Laura C.
I really enjoy the pizza here. I've been iffy on the other stuff, but that may just be because I enjoy the pizza here so much. Especially the lucifer's special. Especially on good Friday. Mainly my complaint is that it's always cold in there and the wait staff in my experience hasn't been reliable. But my friends swear up and down it's rare. I just must go at the wrong times. But good Friday is always the right time.
(3)Johann M.
Stopped in for lunch on a recent cold day. The food was great - we said we were hungry and the hummus came flying out (figuratively). The sandwiches were VERY good, and the pasta salad was a very good side. Prices were reasonable, but they do charge you for everything. We asked for a little bowl of plain pasta for a 2 year old boy, and we were charged $6 for .30 cents worth of noodles. Requested additional pitas for hummus set us back another $1.25. With out being nickl and dimed, I probably would have given 4 stars.
(3)Julia M.
I'm a picky Yelper. I basically don't write reviews unless I really love a place; I suppose I should write reviews for the ones I hate, too, but I'd usually rather just forget that I ever ate there. And frankly, I don't think I've ever had SUCH a bad experience that I want to actively warn other people from ever eating somewhere. However, if I write a review for a restaurant, you'd better believe that it BLEW my ever-lovin' mind in some way. Angeli's was absolutely one of those places. My husband and I visited NOLA for two weeks on our honeymoon, and we spent quite a bit of time on Decatur Street. Not only was there a great liquor store where we could stop for go-cups on our way to other establishments, Decatur also had our favorite bar (1135 Decatur), our favorite coffee shop (EnVie), and Angeli. We stopped there the first time on a whim, because we were really hungry, it wasn't busy, it was only two doors down from the bar, and the menu looked decent. On that first visit, I was thoroughly impressed by their hummus. Made in-shop, very flavorful, smooth, and generously dolloped onto a plate with olives, tomatoes, and pita for dipping (and they didn't hesitate to bring more pita bread when we asked). Our server was polite, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. We chatted a bit about our hometown, asked for his recommendations, and weren't disappointed at all with our food. All very fresh, very tasty. Our second visit was a couple of days later. We were, I think, the first people in for lunch, and again we had an amazing waiter. Again, we asked for his recommendations, and he said, "get the pasta salad side. Seriously, just get it." I'd had the regular salad with my last order, so sure, why not? First off, our sandwiches (pita wrap this time) were top-notch again. Filling, fresh, hot, and you could really tell they put time and effort into preparing good ingredients. And the pasta salad....I just....oh my god. Perfectly-cooked pasta, perfectly seasoned, with chunks of olive, fresh tomato, fresh baby spinach, a superb balsamic dressing...it's been almost 7 months since we ate there, and I still drool over it. No joke, it is THE best pasta salad I've ever eaten, and this comes from a woman who worked 3 years as a production cook for a very successful grocery co-op with a top-notch deli. As the meal progressed, we discovered that this waiter was, if anything, even better than the first one. He was on the spot refilling our waters, offering beer refills, never pushy or in the way, but friendly, intelligent, humorous, easygoing, and just all-around perfect. When it came time to pay our bill, my husband and I didn't even hesitate in giving him a 50% tip...actually, the first time I've ever tipped a server more than 35%. As for the rest of the restaurant, well, perhaps it's my techno-hippie vibe, but it appealed to me greatly. Walls that were full of artwork made by locals, alternative rock on the overhead (a nice change from the ever-present bayou-centric tourist music played in most restaurants in the Quarter), great big windows to watch people go by, lots of nice old wood (floors, tables and chairs, walls, pretty much everywhere), and a decent selection of quality beers. The prices weren't jacked up, the food was excellent...honestly, it became another of our favorite spots in NOLA, and one we'd definitely send anyone else planning to visit.

Anytime someone I know says they are going to Nola, I tell them they MUST go to Angeli on Decatur (before or after Cafe du Monde, whatevz). I really want this place to stay in business for years and years and years. It will always have a place in my heart. The staff are hella friendly and are more than willing to direct out of towners on where the locals go. The food - pause for flashback of me biting into their crazy good portabella sandwich - is absolutely mouthwatering. The location is prime. This place just rocks, ok? We left Nola for Houston and then Houston to Charlotte. We weren't planning on stopping by Nola on the way to NC but we did and for one reason alone - to eat at this place. Enough said.

You might think if you've had one grilled cheese you've had them all... but the grilled cheese here is a breed all it's own... not to mention you and your date can both get a meal and coffee for a grand total of $15 Love it.

Went here during Jazz Fest 2011. I am very familiar with New Orleans and not only visit every year for a week during the fest but also visit 2 or 3 other times throughout the year. I have ate here before on my way up to frenchmen st and thought the food was pretty good. However, walking in here for lunch one afternoon a couple months ago will be the last time I ever visit. My girlfriend and I walked in and it was very slow, maybe 6 people in the whole restaurant. We glance at the bartender and he just stares at us and says nothing. I look around and waitress notices us, nothing as well. We then decide to seat ourselves. The waitress walks by and looks at us and says nothing. Now we're getting a little uncomfortable. 10 minutes goes by and nothing was said to us. Then I notice the waitress steps outside and smokes a cigarette! We get up and I glance at the bartender and kinda shake my head and as we walk out the waitress just looks at us again and I say keep up the good work to her and we decided to head to Mona's and have a great lunch and treated the way two people should be treated when walking into a place to give them business. Normally I do not write reviews of restaurants but felt this was needed. I can not ever recall being treated so terribly in my life eating anywhere.

This was a nice, inexpensive place for lunch, but I wasn't impressed with my sandwich (the Angeli's special) or the pasta salad. The pasta salad had a little too much vinegar in it for my taste, and the sandwich just didn't have quite enough flavor for me. The service was also really slow. On the other hand, the lunch was cheap, the setting was nice, and we appreciated the vegetarian options.
(3)Brian L.
ordered a calzone-crap pasta with spicy meatballs-crap artichoke sandwich-awesome! hmmm 2 of the 3 dishes were crap so they get 3 stars. ambiance was meh I did like how they were playing hitchhikers guide the original on a projector. Other than that it was meh. oh yea service was meh. but they get 3 because the food was meh which is whats important.
(3)Aimee C.
OMG Amazing pizza - I can't remember the name but it had spinach, artichokes, and mushrooms on it. Sooooooo good! The decor was really cool too. I heart this place and will definately go back next time I'm in New Orleans!

Angeli has been a fairly regular haunt of mine since they opened. I didn't even live here then. After driving down for some lower Decatur debauchery, I would always eat here. However, it wasn't until last year that I tried anything besides the Divine Portabello. I figured that the rest of the menu was probably great, but I just couldn't part with that mess o' divinity. Finally, I decided to branch out and start seeing other dishes. I still hope the Divine Portabello can find a way to forgive me. So far, everything is pretty good to freakin' amazing with the exception of the Pasta Marinara, which is, apparently, a fancy way of saying "mediocre spaghetti." The pizza is one of the best in the Quarter, and the Angeli Burger stands out because it's served on panini bread instead of the usual roll. I ordered the burger with chips yesterday for a lunchtime delivery. Whoever answered the phone seemed to think that "chips" sounded a lot like "pasta salad," but hooray for serendipity. The pasta salad was excellent - almost certainly better than chips. Let's hear it for deaf people answering phones! Oh, right, they can't hear the applause. Just wave to them. In my humble opinion, they should dice the kalamata olives, though. That way there would be an even olive flavor to the salad instead of several bites without olive and then a bite in which olive is all you can taste. However, my new favorite thing here is the Angeli Special sandwich. Roasted red peppers make sandwiches awesome. If this sandwich was a woman, I would have dirty filthy porno sex with it. If I ever order one to go, who knows? I just don't want to get arrested for public fornication with a sandwich. The OPP regulars would tear me up for that one. But it is that good. Since smoking was banned in restaurants, Angeli isn't too jumping as a bar anymore, but the food and drinks are still wonderful. And if you're not into the whole "my lungs must be punished" scene (crazy fools, KOFF), Angeli is now a pretty relaxed place for drinks. It just seems like it used to be more lively. Overall, Angeli is a great place for affordable quality food. Start with the Divine Portabello appetizer, then get yose'f an Angeli Special sandwich. Your stomach will thank you.

I don't take a trip to the quarter for the purpose of eating here, but if I happen to be in the quarter, this place is one of the better bets for me. Especially after an evening of drinking. I don't like most of the restaurants in the quarter because they are either really expensive, which I dont visit on a whim, or they cater to the tourist fare offering gumbo and stuff- sorry, I eat the Louisiana creole/cajun fare quite often, so I don't feel the need to eat it out in the quarter. I don't even consider the oven lamp pizza on Bourbon as food, so moving on.... When I am looking for something simple and not expensive, Angeli's does the trick. They are open late, prices are reasonable, and the food has never disappointed me. The service can be hit and miss.
(3)Sheri M.
Overall pretty tasty and a positive experience, but.... we shared a Mediterranean Burger with pasta salad, and the Angeli Special Pizza. Way too much garlic and salt on the pizza (think the eggplant was the salt culprit) and the burger and pasta salad- both too heavily seasoned to compliment each other. Service started out painfully slow, but once we ordered, everything came out super quick and the waitress was pretty awesome.

I live in the area known as "The Pizza Capitol of the World". You can't spit without hitting a pizza place around here, and they are different in various ways, but you're hard pressed to find bad pizza in NEPA. So we've always found New Orleans to be lacking in good pizza places. But in a city known for its food, who cares if you can get a good pizza with so many other options right? Except that sometimes, you just crave pizza! Since we are spoiled by the multitude of amazing pizza places, we will never eat Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa Johns or Little Caesars. That would be like going to NOLA and eating at McDonald's or Subway. You just don't do it. But then we found Angeli's. Have walked by it many a time and a few years ago we finally decided to give it a try. We got the Lucifers special. It is sooo good! Love the hot peppers on the pizza. Crust is done just right and the sauce is tasty. Service is quick and they can accommodate large groups. We've even done take out and our pizza was cooked to perfection. Typical folksy New Orleans decor., sit at a table by the windows for people watching.

I've never eaten at the establishment, but I've consumed takeout several times. Angeli is a fantastic dining venue for vegetarians, in a city that is otherwise not very veg-friendly. The veggie burger is fantastic, however vegans be forewarned - there is egg in the bun, as well as the pizza crusts (so no cheese pizzas simply won't do here, bummer). I was misinformed of the egg contents (boo!) so I actually tried both so I'm going to go ahead and comment on them. The veggie burger used to come with two patties, which was beyond awesome - the bread is pretty thick and hearty so the two patties lent to a nice patty-bread ratio. However, the last few times I had the burger, the downsized it into one patty. *tear The patty comprises of some grains and nuts it seems - maybe a tad of TVP or something in there, but it's a nice mildly sweet veggie burger. The pizzas are amazing, as other reviewers have stated, even without cheese - but again, no point getting it sans cheese, unless you're lactose intolerant or hate cheese. They really do it up with the toppings, no skimping here and the specialty pizzas are perfectly concocted. There is a hummus wrap of sorts (the name escapes me) and it's easily veganized as I was informed (I hope correctly!) the actual wrap is vegan and you can just get it sans feta (it comes with mega garlic - yum!). However, it's nothing to write home about and I wouldn't go out of my way to eat it again. Kudos to Angeli for having vegetarian options . . . would be nice if they could start carrying vegan bread/dough.
(3)Russell W.
We had heard so much about Angeli's that I took my family there for lunch. We were quite pleased with the food - especially the sandwiches (wonderful bread). The hummus was good, but I think mona's is better. The divine portabella was also decent, but "divine" is a bit of a stretch. The atmosphere was good, some funky decor on the walls but nothing to write a novel about. Service was average. I will go back, next time I'm trying the pizza!
(4)Jaimie M.
We've been coming to Angeli for about 8 years now, and remains one of my favorite spots in New Orleans. Angeli was and is, a sweet and festive home base before a night out, perfect for grabbing a quick bite and relaxing a bit. I am a big fan of their delicious specialty cocktails, and very partial to their generous hummus and pita plate. (I am not a veggie myself, but I hear this place is an oasis for vegetarians in a particulary carnivorous city.) My partner will usually get their pizza (probably the best one you will find in town) and I can vouch that it's very tasty. Staff is sweet, kind of southern hipster-ish, and there's usually cute local art on the walls. A few people have told me that this is a big favorite of the Brangelina family when they are in town, and weirdly enough the current art display is a series of women who look uncannily like Angelina Jolie. I wonder if she likes this, or feels creeped out when she comes in.

Taste: 4 Value: 4 Service: 4 In an effort to carb load before the Rock n' Roll Mardi Gras, Evelyn, Rob, and I stopped by here after the wait for Mona Lisa was estimated at 1 hour. While waiting to be seated, an upset patron told us to leave because they thought it was absolute garbage. We were a bit concerned and asked a couple other patrons what they thought. All of them had positive responses. What we did find out was that they had run out of pasta. The night before a major marathon. Shame on them! Undetermined, we decided on the garlic bread with marinara, the house salad, and "lucifer's choice" specialty pizza. The highlight of the food is the crust. They do a great job with it. Fluffy and light, which still having a good amount of chewiness and density. The pizza's combination of peppers, sausage, pepperoni, red onion, and ham worked well. The service could have been better. They looked a bit stressed with the high volume. Our waitress was friendly, and did her best when giving us attention. If you're looking for pizza, this is a great place to go. Can speak of their pasta because they were out!
(4)James O.
Definately one of the best late night food places to be had in the quarter area. Nothing hit's the spot during a night of drinking like a 1am Angeli's pizza. Be forewarned, the garlic cheese sticks are essentially the same as the cheese pizza, with some garlic added and sauce removed. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just a tad redundant to order both :P. I'd give it more stars, but I recently went during the daytime (late lunch), and it's just not as impressive as when it's more full of action at night.
(3)Rexter C.
This was my go to spot during my first year at the University of New Orleans because of its late night hours. Oh the memories. Best wings and pizza along Decatur!
(5)Erica S.
This is also a great standby of the Quarter- a good place to go especially after a late night of drinking, or when you want a good solid food experience. The pizzas are really great.
(4)Jeff S.
Gave up on this place years ago, but was really happily surprised the other night. We stopped going after a few times of sitting in the almost empty restaurant and being ignored for 10 or so minutes by waitstaff that was cooly unconcerned...no big deal, plenty of other places in the city and we tip big, so we are happy to drop it elsewhere. Vegetarian Dad was in town and that usually leaves me scratching my head after the 3 we always take him for the casual meals (Benachin, Coops, and Mona's) but every place was slow and closing early and I agreed to go to Angeli just because everyone was on the verge of crankiness... Absolutely great waitress, sweet and helpful about the veggie options. The sandwiches were really good at 8 bucks including a green salad. Nice crunchy bread, big and filling. Pitchers of Abita for $10? Count me in on that, too. I'm a typically unhealthy NOLA eater, but every once in a while I get tired of shlopping up the fat (not often, just occasionally)...Angeli is back on top of the list for when we want casual, and healthier than usual food. Well, healthy for New Orleans, each veggie sandwich was thankfully covered with ridiculous amounts of goopy melted cheese. Yum. I get asked a lot about places to go by folks from California and such places who need a break from the torture we perform on our bodies (but not souls) with our food, I can recommend this place highly.
(4)Matherine G.
Positive: We were looking to grab some pizza in the quarter, but not the gross slices on Bourbon St. Man, did Angeli hit the spot. This pizza was incredible and reasonably priced. We loved some of the original pizzas (we had the celestial chicken pesto and the mystic pizza) The crust was perfect, delicious; buttery and garlic. We still dream about it. A small (11') pizza is enough for one person. Small (5$) corking fee. Negative: Service was lacking. We weren't greeted at the door, we weren't seated by anyone, and the bill took a while to get. Overall: Great pizza, probably the best in the Quarter, and some of the best pizza we've had in a long time. A nice change from Creole/Cajun food. We'd highly recommend it.
(4)Kort L.
Stumbled on this great place during my last visit. I have to say I'm embarrassed I never knew about it when I lived in town. Great food. Pizza was excellent so was the sandwich my daughter got but the best thing we had was the salad we ordered the Greek salad and didn't look at the dressing but it came with a sun dried tomato vinaigrette. I would eat that on anything. Had a great kick to it and the perfect amount of oil. I'm so sad this salad is 8 hours away from me now
(4)Trevor L.
Excellent salads and pizza. Tomato basil salad dressing is out of this world.
(4)Anthony K.
Best pizza and beer place in the french quarter.
(4)Edith K.
Nice place for a morning snack, don't expect to see the muffins or the scones they have a variety of sandwiches and it get crowded after 3 pm. Coffee? Just the regular type. No Cappuccinos. :(
(4)Frank F.
The Mediterranean burger is soooooooo good!! I love the alternative/hipster vibe here. Pasta salad: delicious!!
(4)Freya Z.
My husband and I came here after someone recommended it for good pizza. We decided after a night of drinking we would give it a try. We walked over and were seated immediately. The place was pretty slow at around midnight (I think?) when we went. From what I recall, they have a good variety of items on their menu, but since we were told the pizza was good, that is what we ordered. This place has some of the best pizza I've ever had! Who knew a place that serves all kinds of food could have such good pizza!! I like pizza with a crust that is somewhat soft (not crunchy) and has a little substance. Not super thick, but also not crepe thin. The flavor of the dough and sauce were impeccable. I think they're open til 1am, so it's a great, late-night eatery. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in N'awlins.
(5)Amanda C.
This place was a saving grace on my recent trip to NOLA. I'm a vegetarian, which makes finding food there incredibly hard. Finally decided to try this place on a Sunday and ended up eating there Monday and twice on Tuesday. Vegetarian or not, it's DELICIOUS!! I've had the pesto pasta, linguini alfredo, veggie burger, roasted eggplant sandwich, and the garlic bread. I haven't been disappointed, you should definitely check it out!!
(5)Berrius B.
We had the mystic pizza, and came back for the meat-laden pizza. Both were very good, and not like any pizza we have had before. The prices are very reasonable, especially for in the French Quarter. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Service was good.
(4)Anice S.
just moved to the area and wanted something cheap and easy for dinner. Angeli was all that and more. We got the 4 cheese, but substituted their garlic sauce that they advertised on other specials insted of the red sauce. Instant incredibly tasty white pizza. Great crust. It was delivered piping hot pretty quickly. We will DEFINITELY be going back.
(5)Sharon S.
*Update* This USED to be my favorite restaurant in the world, but... I feel the magic is gone. Every time I visit NOLA, I come here, hoping to regain the loveliness of days long ago. But.... The menu's changed. And they don't have syrup anymore for me to put in my coffee (but the dude waiting on us remembered that I used to do that, so points, I guess?). The pizza's still decent, and there's still Lower Decatur people watching to be had, but it's just not the same. Maybe I should gather all my college friends and we should meet up here some night, then see if that does anything?
(3)Katy G.
Food and service are both very average. Prices are resonable for the location. They deliver! Plan ahead though because it may take an hour or so to get your food.
(3)Patrick J.
A sandwich shop with an artsy rustic feel to draw in the tourists. Props for an extensive vegitarian menu. I'm not a vegitarian, but after so many days of heavy french and creole food, a portabella sandwich is just what the doctor ordered. The sandwich wasn't amazing, but passable. I would recommend to anyone looking for veggie sandwiches or something a little healthier than the standard Quarter fare.
(3)Sarah W.
So after being away from my beloved New Orleans for a year and a half, I was psyched to go back to Angeli for one reason: Blue Cheese Burger. I get there, sit down and low and behold THEY WERE OUT OF BURGERS!!! :( Seriously sad I settled for the Feta triangles with spinach (AMAZING) and a grilled cheese and pasta salad. They were all delicoius. Get the burger, if they aren't "out of burgers".. yes I'm a little bitter.. Maybe next year!
(4)A L.
Lunch here was wonderful! Had the portabella mushroom sandwich with a side of pasta and a salad. The service was quick and friendly. It's also open till 4am!
(5)Heather C.
I've been here several times. I'm a vegetarian and this is one of my favorite place to go in the quarter. There are several options, which is a nice change. I love their veggie buger. It's house made - Spicy black bean goodness. My husband really enjoys their portebella sandwich. The pizza is pretty tastey as well. Another plus is that they deliver. Which is great for the days I don't feeling swimming through tourist to get there.
(4)Kristin H.
I am a big fan of Angeli's. The first time I went, my best friend and I were sauced to the point of shoveling food into our mouths without care. I thought I remembered a good meal, but wanted to be sure, so Dave and I made up an excuse to go into the city so we could eat there. I am so glad to have gone sober!! While the sampler appetizer with hummus, sun dried tomato spread, roasted red bell peppers and flatbread were good, it was not great like I had romanticized. The pasta salad, even though I HATE olives, was great. Just be sure to like dill. Dill is one of my favorite herbs, so I relished i the pasta salad. Dave wasn't much of a fan, but his sandwich was satisfying enough. I had the portabella sandwich (so good, I want one right now), and Dave had the meatball sub (he ate the entire thing before I could get a bite). I can't wait to go back. I love that the place is on the outskirts of the quarter a bit, so it was away from the hustle and bustle of the district. For people who frequent the area, it's nice to get away when not entertaining out of town guests who want a hurricane and po' boy. If you get the chance, on the same street, there is a bar called the Turtle Bay Bar (?). Great bartender, tastes of beer if you're not too sure... fun and relaxing! Last time I was there, I saw John Malkovich with his grandkids walking down the street!
(3)Paul B.
OK, maybe I was drunk, but that was seriously one good bacon hamburger. And the pasta salad-- yum. And they delivered to the bar I was firmly planted in. Well, OK, I was definitely drunk, but I stand by my review.
(4)Andrew B.
Walked in on a Tuesday night with some friends. We are from out of town and it had good reviews. We were not disappoint. I got a pizza that was phenomenal. The rest of the group really liked what they got. Our only complaint was that the waiter/bartender wasn't attentive to drink refills. Other than that, great food, questionable service.
(4)Heidi B.
I love this place for lunch. The portions are HUGE and the prices are reasonable. You won't even be hungry when dinner rolls around, or you'll have a nice bit of leftovers. If you get a sandwich, pick the pasta salad as your side - it's delicious. All the food is creative with unique ingredients. Nice staff, too.
(5)Matt B.
Good service, better pizza. No complaints here.
(4)Allison J.
I have spent many a late night grubbing on pasta and salads at Angeli. I've never had a bad meal here and though... the food has never been mindblowing- it's consistently decent. In January 2008, I had couple of pizzas (veggie and a meaty one) and there was the perfect amount of sauce and lots of fixin's. The Greek salad was as good as I remembered from pre-Katrina. For all the places that I used to frequent, it's nice to come back to NOLA and have Angeli's be a constant source of food and entertainment.
(4)Jerrod A.
Showed up around 9pm on a Sunday (07/26/09) with a party of 3. We had no problem finding a table. Tori was our waitress took the order. She was polite and didn't bother us at all. We weren't that hungry, but we threw caution into the wind and ordered a large lucifer's special. The pizza was all I hoped. The cheese was gooy while the meat was not overbearing of the vegetables. I enjoyed the crust most. Light, flaky & crunchy. Albeit the sum of 18.50 for 8 slices was higher than I'm accustomed to, however the atmosphere of friendship and commoradery easily displaced the thought of money far from my mind. Go, enjoy!
(4)peter s.
This place was great BEFORE the sorm, a local secret. But now, it blows. Overpriced and the quality of the food is very poor. I have lived in NOLA 12 yrs and I will never go back, not even for a beer. It is a tourist trap!!!!
(1)Rusty M.
Great vegetarian options (hummus, etc.) and excellent pizza. Loved my salad, and the veggie wrap was excellent. Whole cloves of garlic in it--crazy! Supposedly Brad and Angelina haunted this place during their New Orleans days. Is it coincidence that the Elvira-looking women in the art on the back wall have an Angelina resemblance?? I think not!
(4)Michelle W.
I was in NOLA on business for 4 days and ate at Angeli twice. Twice! Before I left California, I was committed to breaking my commitment to vegetarianism for the sake of seafood in NOLA. But thanks to hotel food and Angeli, I didn't need to (which may or may not be a good thing). The sampler plate and pizzas were yummy at Angeli. Good beer, good service, good times. Very laid back pubbish environment. Minus one star for the mouse we saw on the floor in the dining room. !! Total violation of the heath code, I'm sure. My coworker told me not to alert management because - gasp! - they would surely kill it (which may or may not have been a bad thing!). I don't care what they say about old cities and mice going hand-in-hand because mice belong in a snake's stomach, not the dining room of a restaurant!
(4)Gina Z.
I visit this place everytime I'm in New Orleans! It's always the best place to eat! The food is great and has vegetarian choices to please all!! Always adding new items and keeping old ones too! The best place for late night! Halloween weekend, movies were shown on the wall so dinner & a movie. I had the hamburger with bacon and wow! it was really good,went back again, but with Halloween crowds they ran out of burgers so had pizza, just as pleased, The wait staff are super friendly, glad to see Angeli lives on, my #1 choice!
(5)Daniel P.
My first time in New Orleans, and I spent more time in Angeli than anywhere else. Thank God for them, too. Open late, and serving delicious food in a lazy, comfortably open atmosphere. If I lived here, this would be the place where I would sit to read books. Kudos for the black and whites projected in back of the bar. My roasted eggplant panini sandwich was cooked in some kind of wonderful, with an absurdly rich and tasty pasta salad with a vinegary kick (those kalamata olives will get you...) and a fresh greens salad. The eggplant was warm and buttery, with an amazingly smooth tomato aioli, and the deep-dish pizza style bread was crisp and perfectly seasoned. Such a satisfying, more than generously portioned, and somewhat healthy meal. Everything down to the ruby tomato slices was fresh-made and worth the pleasantly long wait. I spent almost five hours here one night. Tip extra for the casual, almost East-Village waiters. Do not use the bathroom while here, unless you like bar stalls which haven't been cleaned in a while. Sorry. I had to warn you.
(5)Katy B.
Veg heaven, especially for those that like vegetables, and not just meat surrogates. They do magical things to eggplant. The eggplant sandwich was out of this world, as was the pizza I had with eggplant (Angeli special? forgot the exact name). With the pizza, be prepared for garlique - whole cloves abound. Same for the veggie wrap, which also got rave reviews from my dining partner in crime. Portions are plenty big. Both visits left me wishing I had a fridge in my hotel room. Service was super friendly and quick on both of my visits. Bathrooms are diiiirty, but I've seen worse. This place is definitely chill enough for a good solo meal if you're in town by yourself for a convention or some such as I was. Grab a table by the window and enjoy the people watching.
(5)Kelly W.
Thank goodness for Yelp while on vacation!! My boyfriend and I were looking for a good vegetarian friendly restaurant in the french quarter and came across Angeli's through a Yelp search. This place was great! So great that we ate there two nights in a row (and had the same waiter both times). The sandwich selections were great but we didn't end up try any of the pizza. We really enjoyed our dining experience(s). I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a yummy meal that isn't a tourist trap with an exponentially long wait.
(4)Ryan G.
When I lived in the Quarter this was my staple. Pita Points and hummus, french fries and a milkshake. I'd come here and watch the movies late at night. It seemed almost magical, not the healthy kind of magical, but just as good.
(4)Zoey C.
I'm pretty much in love with this place. Rumor has it that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are too. You'd think the restaurants in the city of New Orleans would be open late night, but most seem to close at 9.30pm on week nights. After walking around the french quarter late night in a starved crazed mood, we stumbled across Angeli. The place has a laid back atmosphere with an array of cool art on the walls. The staff are, with piercing's and all, just as cool. I feared for a moment that my very straight laced catholic mother would feel out of place in such a hip atmosphere, but they welcomed her with friendly faces. The food is good. Especially the pizza, which has a dough that taste like the homemade stuff I ate as a kid on pizza nights. Compared to all the other restaurants/bars in the french quarter, the prices here KICK ASS!!! $2.50 for a bourban on the rocks?? Hello I love you. I can honestly say that I had one of my better meals here, then in any of the hyped up foodie places that charge you five times more for sub par crap in the city. I only wish this place was in my own neighborhood and that I would have given the guy who cleared our table my number. PS..The night I was there they happened to be playing 'Family Guy' episodes on a huge movie screen. AWESOME.

Delicious! We got the pizza with chicken, pesto, sun dried tomatoes and olives.. it was absolutley delicious. We also had the chicken alfredo pasta, that was awesome too, probobly the best alfredo I've ever had. Our server was super sweet and super attentive, the place was almost packed and she was working it I think alone. She was awesome. She had reddish/orange hair and some funky tattoos, the best!

Visiting NOLA for the weekend - the husband and I tried to go to Central Grocery on Monday for a muffaletta but Central Grocery is closed on Mondays so eventually we wound up at Angeli - WOW - what a pleasant suprise. We split a greek salad and 10" pizza, which was more than enough food for two hungry people - and both things were delicious. We especially liked the dressing for the salad and the pizza crust. Yum!

OMGness! if I was to start a restaurant, it would be exactly like this. I kept exclaiming with delite at every little detail! gorgeous vintage interior- with lots of class & charm. projected movies on the wall, and yummy yummy hummus. a haven for visiting veg-heads in New Orleans! Plus, it's right on Frenchmen Street so we checked out some live blues afterwards.
(5)Jeanette C.
The service ranges from mediocre to bad. But the food is delicous and when I'm on vacation I'm OK with waiting longer than I would at home. We always eat here at least once while in New Orleans and I plan to continue the tradition.
(3)Catherine B.
I think this place is great - it was honestly a breath of fresh air from the other places in New Orleans I had found to eat. It can be hard to eat healthy with some variety in this city, and Angeli made it possible. (It also made it possible for my picky vegetarian co-worker to find more to eat than a boring veggie sandwich from Quizno's) I love the pita sandwiches, and the flatbread. And I like that you can sub the pasta salad for the chips with your meal. The pizza is good too! The service is friendly, and they'll deliver to the central business district hotels, which was awesome.
(4)Gerlaine B.
I love Angeli. I crave the portebella sandwich. Definitely not the place to go if you are in a hurry. It's a comfortable atmosphere. I tend to like places that aren't full of pretense. I have my niece hooked too. Whenever she comes in town, we try to go elsewhere, but usually end up here.
(4)Cam s.
Love Angeli's! The bread is amazing, the pizzas are spectacular, the beer is local (Abita) and frosty-cold. When in the steamy heat of NOLA, it doesn't get much better than a beer-iceburg in your glass. But the food is what keeps us coming back. The salads are fresh and loaded with all sorts of yummy things. The pastas are great, the sandwiches are out of this world. I love the roasted pepper/portabello/eggplant loaf of yumminess. I have always had great service there, so I am not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about: greeted at the door? Why? Took too long to get the bill? Really? Who wants a bill, and when you are in NOLA, every meal is leisurely! Be prepared to spend time relaxing, chatting, and enjoying yourself. put down the freaking iPhone or Crackberry, and get reacquainted with the love of your life! Or at least enjoy the great food and atmosphere. Go to Angeli's. Enjoy yourself.

PRE-KATRINA REVIEW! Love love love this place. Unique and tasty food! Yummmmy! Had the veggie burger where it is HOME-MADE (none of that frozen Gardenburger pass-offs). Had the salad, but totally stole my friend's fries - SO GOOD. I remember this portabella/spicy chicken appetizer dip, served with warm and chewy pita triangles. SOOOO DIVINE!!!! AHHH! I love the atmosphere, it's really eclectic and totally all inclusive. Yummy!
(5)Robert H.
Been here a few times. Disappointed every time. I think this place tries to hard to be hip and cool and looses touch with ingredients that make this type of food great.
(3)Aaron B.
Ordered the Chicken Diavolo pizza and garlic bread. Moderately expensive and the 'large' pizza wasn't that big. It was pretty good though, but nothing out of this world. They delivered and it was quick.
(3)Amish S.
This was the first place we ate on the last trip to NOLA and we ate there many times after. The pizza is crazy good and I had something else besides pizza, but pretty much every time we got there I was already trashed, ha, so I can't remember.
(5)Erica M.
OK so the food is great.....but I had to give them 2 stars because the staff is for the most part HORRIBLE. I used to go there, pick up, and have food delivered alllllll the time but have recently stopped due to horrible service. If you go in and sit down it is pretty much hit or miss....i have had one extremely nice waitress but the others there do not look like they give a F at ALL. Expect to get ignored if you go in there to eat. Also....I am semi-picky...I'm a vegetarian...so I used to order my favorite sandwich a particular way....without ONE of the vegetables...and after a while they told me that they could not do it this way, even after CHARGING ME $2.00 EXTRA to have the vegetable TAKEN OFF like they had done many many times in the past. I even asked if I could just have that veggie on the side....and i got a big fat NO. Occasionally now if I call in they will do it for me, but it's hit or miss. Also, just a side note, but the guys that deliver are a little scary...I'm kind of scared to take my food from them, they look like they haven't showered in a week or so! ha! anyway.... I've pretty much given up on them. The food is pretty good but the bad service is just not worth it to me.
(2)Armand A.
I tried this place last weekend, and I was in for a delicious surprise. The place was not busy and its air-conditioned dining area was a welcome oasis from the humid, hot weather outside. It boasts many different sandwiches and pizzas on its small menu, but the pizza diavolo was to die for: generous portions of chicken topped the amazingly spicy sauce, the diavolo in its name. For those of you seeking a fiery pizza, this has got your name on it (oh, and you can even add jalapenos to it). The side pasta salad that accompanies the sandwiches is deliciously different from your typical, bland side pasta salads that way too many places serve. True to the other reviews, the service can leave a lot to be desired. Our server started strong, but once she had a few more tables, her service turned lackluster. Despite this small flaw, I will return to this place to have that amazing pizza and to try some of their sandwiches. This place is a definite must if you're in the French Quarter!
(4)Emily M.
The fact that I've only visited this place while creating or nursing a hangover should not distract from the fact that everything is delicious--pizza, hummus, sandwiches...they do it right here. The waiters are always cute and have more piercings than you. Come in at the right time and enjoy a movie projected onto the bar.
(4)Claire S.
Large portions of deliciousness at Angeli! I got the spinach artichoke sandwich with the pasta salad. Both were really great and the leftovers the next day were just as good. I'd definitely come back here on my next visit to NOLA.
(4)Kelly H.
SO TASTY! My friend and I went and I was starving and talked her into an appetizer and we both got sandwiches. Doesn't sound like much but we have leftovers and I was sooooo full! Huge portions and so freaking yummy. GO GO GO!
(4)Sarah R.
The service is a little wonky late-late at night, but I guess that's to be expected. The pizza is good, the hummus tasted kinda weird, but all in all, it consitently hits all the drunken-binge-eating spots.
(3)Cole B.
Angeli is definitely one of my favorite eateries in NOLA.. and usually one of my scheduled stops if the drinks havent infected my sense of direction. I would've given the place 5 stars, however, the feta triangles (phyllo dough with spinach and feta) dont have enough spinach. But other than that, everything is good on the menu, just about everything. The pizzas, arent your normal fare, super hearty/rich. Everything is pretty good, compared to the slop you can find at other places late at night. Don't miss out.
(4)Emily L.
I have eaten here many times and love the pizza. Also the portobello pasta is spicy (very good). The bathroom is nasty .. but I try not to use it. I also caught a glimpse the last time i went there of one of the servers picking food off an order and eating it before taking out to the floor. Freaked me out a little but I took a good look at the guy and will be on the watch for him! I will say that the food tasted good enough for me to seriously consider going back.
(3)Jason A.
The pizza is fantastic, as is the pasta salad. Great for people watching. Lots of options for vegetarians. No separate checks though.
(5)Jack K.
Good atmosphere. Pasta was way overcooked. Certainly not al dente the way I like it. Sauce was way too heavy-laden with cream. But the service was friendly and attentive. Laid-back bohemian atmosphere.
(2)David M.
The food, was good. The pizza was tasty and they had some good options. The Eggplant Divine was really tasty with a sauce that made you wanted to lick the bowl. The calzone looked like one of the best I have ever seen. There was a decent selection of beer, both bottles and on tap. The food even came out quickly, but getting an order in took forever. It might have just been a busy Saturday night in New Orleans, but once we finally got our table it took the waitress almost 30 minutes to come over and even get our drink orders. Not to mention coming back ten minutes later for our food order. While we were waiting, the place is a seat yourself, one of the guys with us was trying to get a pitcher of beer. After fifteen minutes I asked him what was taking so long and he said the bartender was completely ignoring him and yelling profanities at some girl. He had to get a local to stop the bartender long enough to his pitcher. So, the food was good, but the service was not.
(3)Jessica T.
We ended up here because we waited too long to make a reservation anywhere else and had a hungry 3 year old in tow. It seems that the only good thing about this place is that it tends to be empty so you can always get a seat. There were seven of us. We ordered salads which were huge but totally mediocre and covered in Kraft Parmesan cheese. The pizza was boring--not enough cheese and a crust that could break teeth. The pastas were also huge but on par with something you could dump out of a jar at home. On the plus side, the drinks were strong. On the minus side, everything else.
(2)Elizabeth B.
GO HERE. NOW. Nooope, wait, on second thought, don't. Let's keep it our little secret. A friend of mine went to NOLA last year for Jazz Fest, I couldn't even remember the name of the place or even if it was still open post-Katrina, but I found myself texting him directions to get there at 1:00 am. It's just that ridiculously good. The Divine Portabella--named that for a reason. One of my favorite haunts when I lived in this most amazing of cities full of good food...
(5)Erica B.
Went for lunch on a Friday afternoon. My friend and I split a portobello sandwich and an artichoke spinach sandwich. Both were really tasty, and generously portioned. Service was slow but friendly, and our food came out pretty quickly after ordering. A good selection of vegetarian options; I will definitely return.
(3)Tuna D.
Used to come here all the time for late night eats. Hummus plate is off the chain, so were their chicken wings, i dont know what they do with them but it always taste great with the bleu cheese, roasted red peppers with the humms is awesome. Only problem is looking for parking in the Quarters
(3)Genevieve B.
The pasta salad or the french fries?! They are both amazing, and the burgers, and the piza and the portabellas, and I don't usually like mishrooms... I'm starving, and with much of the food I've had here in LA its no wonder there are no many anorexics in Hollywood.
(5)Jude F.
Excellent salads and hot and cold pasta, and their hours can't be beat. Frequently showing weird movies with the volume off.
(4)Zachary A.
Angeli is the requisite hip eatery on Decatur. Now a veteran on the street, the food is above average and fairly priced, but you might have a hard time with the service. Great place to people watch, or to sit and read on a stormy night.
(4)Ashley B.
Angeli is a personal favorite of mine. Open till 4am on the weekdays and 24hrs on Friday and Saturday, it's perfect for the end of the evening wind-down. Old films are projected onto the wall behind the bar, and if that doesn't keep you occupied until your food eventually arrives, you can watch the rag-tag late night strollers walk past the windows. Their pasta salad is divine (vinegary but with smooth flavor and chunks of tomatos and kalamata olives). Both the Angeli Special and the Portabello Mushroom sandwiches are delicious. Bring a cardigan, it's always freezing inside.
(4)mark m.
good place to eat, famous for their hummus.
(4)Morgan F.
I feel some sort of destiny/fate thing going on between John L. H.'s review and my first time at Angeli on Decatur. Yes...I was hard partying this day. Yes...I needed to fill my belly. Potentially...to consume more alcohol. It was Red Dress Run, and besides my 9:30am breakfast of deuce Bloody Marys at Good Friends and some piping hot queso, I hadn't eaten much. Whilst in my red tutu, I wolfed down Angel Wings, which aren't crazy spicy or saucy, but hit the spot with a side of ranch. Then split a Chicken Diavolo Pizza: Grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and a spicy red sauce with my compadres. No judgement passed by our waitress who was also serving multiple tables of red dressed patrons. Did it fill my belly?...yes. Were the prices suuuuper good, yeah! $7.50 for the 8 wings, and $11.50 for a 10" pizza that hit the spot. Did I continue to drink that afternoon? Sure did. I'm glad I found a spot in the Quarter for times like this! Good prices, and I'm not going to be asked, "You a local? Why don't you try our $10 jambalaya?" BUT I do need to come back for the pasta salad, sooner than later, apparently.
(4)Kaleb Banning K.
Amazing pizza at a reasonable price. I order from them at work from time to time, and have never been let down. The pizza has a good. homemade taste, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. They also have really cool names, like The Lucifer Special and stuff like that. I can't rate the inside as I have only had them deliver, but they are always fast and courteous when I call. The best thing though, and the reason for the 5 Stars, is these folks get modern business. They take credit cards! YES, someone around here that actually wants to MAKE MONEY instead of turning off their potential guests by hanging on to the 1950's gold standard. Try them out, you'll be glad that you did.
(5)Christine L.
Amazeballs, but not always the best service. This place has amazing pizza and cheese bread. I have ate here sober and drunk and both ways I love it. It stays open late which is nice when it is 1 in the morning and you are hungry for something other then what someone is selling on the street or krystal's. The service here is not that great, but it is on a busy street in New Orleans. It is more of a dive-y place. If you want super clean bathrooms and super nice servers go to a more tourist-y spot. Yes there is no split checks or separate payments. But I understand. They have it all over the menu so you won't be surprised when the bill comes. All in all this place is great. I can't believe all the reviews saying this place will never last. It has been open since before Katrina, and it still amazing.
(4)Ric A.
Best Meatball in the Quarter ...very fast and friendly delivery...price is good for the quarter
(4)Toni J.
Where do I start with this review.... Any business in 2014 that doesn't have website will be out if business shortly. Here's a perfect example. Since Angeli doesn't have A website, someone created one for them. And is taking online orders for them as well! This is the scam I got caught in last week. After 30 minutes of back-and-forth between the restaurant and the scam site, I finally got it figured out... But now they have my credit card so who knows what I am facing in the future. This all could've been avoided if they just had a simple site with their menu on it, or at least monitored their web presence. Once I finally place my order, I asked for the delivery time and they said 30 to 35 minutes. I said if it's anymore I can't place my order because I have a meeting in 45 minutes. 45 minutes later I called the restaurant to find out the status of my order... It was on the way, they had messed up the pizza and had to remake it... No call to the customer to let them know! I had to run down to the lobby grab my food and then put it in my room, didn't even get a chance to take one bite because I was late to a meeting... Super annoyed... And starving! Two hours later I finally got to eat (cold) pizza. The pizza was actually very tasty, the roasted garlic was not overpowering and it had a decent amount of vegetables. The salad on the other hand was a rip off. Same price as the pizza but was essentially lettuce and 1/2 a white onion, with a sprinkle of the other veggies that come with it. I was not amused. You may have a better experience in the restaurant, but I would not recommend take out, or their overpriced salads.
(2)Quendolyn B.
Great taste but do not order the gyro. There are literally 3 strips of meat on the pita bread with mostly lettuce and onions.
(3)Jennifer N.
Delicious!!! Got the lucifer pizza and it was delicious!! Devoured the whole thing. Prices are fair and service was great!!!
(5)Sukhraj B.
The bride and her mom brought the bridesmaids here as sort of a special lunch so that we could do a bit of a meet and greet, hang out, and so that the bride could get her "pizza fix." All that was fine with me because we all hit it off as soon as we met. My best friend, the bride, loves this place so we just left the ordering up to her. Service is slow but then again, that's sort of the charm about Louisiana. You can't be in a hurry and you have to be OK with that which I was because we weren't really going anywhere. We started off with small salads that are anything but small so be forewarned. I was almost full from the salad itself and had to stop myself from eating anymore. Our pizzas were the virtuous angel - a veggie pizza with goat cheese, spinach, mushroom, tomatoes and a pesto chicken. Both were amazing and tasted fresh. The crust is nice and buttery too. Mmm. This is a great spot in the French Quarter and a real treat.
(4)Saniya S.
If you're walking from Canal Street or around Jackson Square, this place is ALL the way down Decatur street! But Decatur was a pretty cool street with lots of shops/restaurants/people so it was actually a fun trek. We got there at kind of an odd time, around like 4, so it was really chill & we easily found a place to sit. The place is kind of one huge room with lots of wacky paintings & decorations all over the walls, and windows at the front. We ended up getting a pizza off the specialty pizza menu & an eggplant sandwich with a side salad. The pizza was amazing! It had fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, feta cheese, and I asked the waitress to substitute the artichokes with eggplant, which she very kindly did! The sandwich was yummy too. The salad that came with the sandwich was lame, but I guess it's a pizza place so salads probably aren't their speciality. On the other hand, the sundried tomato dressing that came with the salad was delicious! The food did take a long while to come out, but then it is pizza, and since we were pretty tired it just felt good to sit down and warm up. Waitress was very sweet & attentive. Oh also, the next day, we warmed up the pizza and it was still good!
(5)Lenae B.
Absolutely amazing!! We were a "little intoxicated" as you should be in NOLA and we're just trying to find a place that delivered (could barely walk). Asked what they were known for and ordered wings, pizza and Greek salad. All amazing!!! Definitely recommend!
(5)Gym B.
Great food at great prices. One of my favorites is their pasta salad.
(4)Leilani A.
Been a loyal customer since birth. Try the pasta salad and spinach and artichoke sandwich. Good delivery.
(5)Iron H.
This place rocks. My children and I were in NOLA for a few days on vacation, and stopped by here in the middle of the week. I'm not a big pizza person, but my kids are (like most kids) and I figured this would engender some goodwill. My kids shared a pizza (and we still had two pieces left over) and I bad the best chicken calzone I had ever eaten in my life, which was seemingly the size of a small child. As I said above, I'm not a big pizza eater, but if there was somewhere like this in my hometown then I probably would be. The fact that it was only ~$31 for the pizza, calzone, and drinks for everyone was also an unexpected pleasure. If I ever go back to New Orleans, consider Angeli's my first stop.
(5)Barrett R.
These pies are the best in the Quarter/Treme.
(5)Ariel S.
No split checks. No substitutes. Great for pizza and pasta!
(3)Destin S.
Unfortunately the staff is very unfriendly in my dealings with them. I work at an establishment on Royal street in which there was a dispute over a food delivery being paid properly between one of our Owners and a driver of theirs. The delivery driver cursed out the entire staff while customers were in our shop. Needless to say, they are assholes.
(1)Sean B.
Jason I. said it... old-school pizza, sandwiches, and salads. The place was dead at 9pm but I hear it's slammin' later when drunk people come in before round two. Glad I saw it when it was slower. Enjoyable, but nothing special, in a city full of amazing places. Slow service (considering we were the only ones there), and pretty average Italian food.
(3)Melissa M.
I have been here a few times on past visits, Never again!. I used to come here for their grilled cheese sandwich, it was pretty tasty. I came here with a couple of friends and we wanted separate checks, not really a big deal or so we thought??. The waitress was outright rude and that is totally unacceptable. Had it not been for the fact of looking forward to having a grilled cheese, we would have walked out then and there....The food came and it was not even near as good as it was the past few times I had been there. Perhaps the shitty service also added to the unappetizing food. We left exact change and walked out and this crap waitress (who should seriously think about getting a job where she doesn't have to flaunt her unsocial behavior in front of people) actually asked us why we didn't leave a tip...clearly, not a rocket scientist...so there is another job opportunity missed on her part. I didn't actually hear what she said, I just heard someone behind us yapping. One of the people with us felt bad and gave her an undeserved tip. I only hope that she used this money to but some laxative to purge her shitty attitude. I won't be back. Have fun scaring away what customers you have left with your winning personality.....lol
(1)Johnathan S.
Went here today in the afternoon and was blindsided by the rudeness and disdain we were confronted with. The policy of no separate checks is ridiculous. The waitress was outright rude and then mouthed off about not receiving a tip from the previous two ladies. I would assume it was because of her attitude. I gave in and tipped her because I felt bad. The food itself was adequate but the way we were treated soured the whole experience.
(1)Chris Y.
Just looking inside you might be scared away because it doesn't look like much, but the pizza was actually quite good. The wait staff was really chill and laidback too.
(4)Kelly M.
AVOID! I am a nice person. I give people the benefit of the doubt, look on the bright side, and view my glass as half full but what is up with this place!?! Staff behaves as if a patron is a massive inconvenience even outright complaining they need a smoke break. The whole place is really dirty and the bathrooms (which are like gold in the Quarter) are disgusting and seem like a place one could be assaulted. My husband saw a massive roach crawl across the floor surprisingly near a giant Orkin big zapper. Not a good sign to see a zapper indoors and in plain view. The other clientele? Shady at best. The food? Not worth the rest of what you encounter here. Be smart and safe. Stay away from here and enjoy any variety of places in the area. Feeling adventurous and wanting to go to a 'local' spot away from the tourists? Please, please find somewhere else.
(1)Michael G.
Look, I know I didn't particularly like this restaurant while I was eating here, but that's no reason for that giant mural of Drew Brees to keep staring at me! It wasn't my fault that the pesto pasta lacked any zest and the noodles were too hard. I also found the portion size a bit too small and it really left me wanting more. From somewhere else. But at $11.25, that was pretty much dinner. Now if the mozzerella bread this restaurant puts on the side of said pasta dish was any indication, I probably would have enjoyed my pizza if I had gotten that. That bread was amazing with a just thick enough layer of mozzerella cheese to make it chewy with each bite. I almost wouldn't call it bread at all. It was almost pizza. Just like this place is almost an Italian restaurant. A laid back pizzeria catering to a vegetarian crowd, yes. And I did appreciate the vibe with some really awesome concert posters lining all the walls and the punk rock waitstaff. But a bit too expensive a pizzeria for my taste. So stop judging me, Drew Brees mural. Stop judging me! Also, stop playing so well when you're on my opponent's team in fantasy football.
(3)Erica F.
Sandwich plates were so tasty, the combinations complimented perfectly. Perfect portions of food, and pleasing environment.
(4)Charles H.
THE BOOT'S LUXE compared to Angeli's grungy, after-kegger frat den; WHY DO OUR BEST THIN CRUST PIZZAS come from either Domino's or Jester's? COMPARABLE TO DELIVERY; a meal for 3-4, the 14-inch "Lucifer": $20 after-tax. When I lived in Chicago, the "perfect pizza" was as much a source of pride as a dark mahogany roux in New Orleans. But just like the touristy myth that Central Grocery has the best muffaletta, to most Chicagoans deep dish pizza is a joke. There the local delicacy is a crisp, crunchy, thin crust that essentially serves as a chip for the rich local sausages, cheeses and generations-old Northwest-side Italian marinara and giardiniera recipes. Among the best of those neighborhood pizzerias, I know of not one that succeeded with a doughy, gummy, glutenous crust like Angeli. Can anyone recommend a crispy-thin, neighborhood pizzeria between the 17th and Industrial Canals? BETTER PIZZA: Thursdays at McDonogh 35; Domino's beef lovers thin crust; Jester's or Big Easy's on Bourbon (1/6th of a 14", $4.50) & they'll even grill 'em "extra toasted"...
(2)Dylan M.
Great place for a casual lunch or dinner. The food is good and quick. Service is a bit inconsistent. It's a great option web the city is busy always seems like they can get you in right away. I like the black bean burger.
(4)Christina T.
I cam here for a class project and we had allllllllll differente types of pizze. There's really no way that you can go wrong. All of them were good. A tad greasy but it's pizza! lol Nice casual atmosphere inside also.
(4)Niki B.
Omg! You must have the pita sampler and pasta salad. To die for! Also ask for Marti as your waiter he is phenomenal. My fiancé and I absolutely love this place. Wish they would open one in Metairie too! Superb!
(5)Derreck D.
Usually pretty empty which is nice considering its busy location on lower Decatur. The staff is friendly enough and your usual hipster "Decatur" type; however, they are showered. I think the food was a bit better Pre-Katrina. Still tasty though. I cannot comment on their pizza (never had it). I do enjoy the Meatball Sandwich with the pasta salad or green salad as a side. The sandwich is spicer than most which is a nice change. Overall, for the quite atmosphere and cheap prices it's worth dropping in one day/evening for a quick bite. Not a place to take a date or have a business meeting though.
(3)Anna T.
I went here at night to get some late dinner cause I came home late from work. I ordered the chicken Alfredo pasta with side of cheese pizza. When I ate it it tasted soooo sour like overdue creamer. When I asked to see the manager some girl name Natalie. All she did was took my number down and that's it. Didn't do anything or offer to get me another dish. Not only that the guy that came out who cooked my dish seemed high!? I will be definitely calling the health people cause of this. That's just down right horrible. Expired creamer and serving it . I couldn't even take another bite!? This place should be shut down. I will be writing to the health people about this place!?
(1)Jeremy S.
The hummus is still really good. That's about where 'good' dried up. The service was ABYSMAL. The pizza came out all wrong (missing the roasted red peppers that used to come on it) and when I asked the waitress she said "oh, it's missing roasted red peppers". She came back a few minutes later and said "Get ready to have your mind blown...they are in the sauce. If you want more I'll have to charge you for them" Halfway through our meal, which we were devouring without any further complaints, she come by and said "oh....you ate that fast. I GUESS i'll bring you the check". I've never been scolded for eating too quickly before and you'd think she'd have offered us something else since we were clearly ravenously hungry. She clearly wanted to get rid of us though and succeeded. My mind was blown alright, but not at all in the way she meant it.
(2)Matthew P.
Checked it out based on the recommendation of a friend and wasn't disappointed. We had the Mystical which was excellent.
(5)Torrance W.
Moved to the Quarter Halloween weekend and I have been looking for great pizza since the move. I just had the Lucifer Special today and I am delighted to share that I have found my go to for great pizza. I was extremely pleased with the quality of my pizza and they deliver!
(4)Olga K.
Angeli is one of my go-to delivery spots. I work late hours in the quarter and having pizza or one of their fab eggplant sandwiches delivered is on the verge of life-saving. Thanks for being awesome guys
(5)Tim W.
The food was terrific. I was surprised, though, that at noon on a weekday, we were the only people in the restaurant. The server forgot to bring us our wings, and delivered them after the meal, BUT, she comped the wings, which made up for the error. That little action speaks volumes to me.
(4)Evan B.
Fucking ZERO STARS!!!!!!!! I didn't have my address (God fucking forbid) they told me to go fuck myself. Then when I called back, the manager hung up on me, while saying, "dont fuck with the people that make your food!"
(1)Scott M.
Oh my goodness this is some good pizza. We got the heavenly able veggie pie, and just amazing crust, fresh veg, and very very impressive. Nice atmosphere with big windows in a good people watching spot in the quarter. Also got the Cesar salad, which you can skip, it's nothing special. But wow, that pizza. Mmm.
(4)Dustin T.
I've been coming here for 15 years and they still make the best chicken calzone I've ever had. A few other must haves are the Divine Portobello appetizer (amazing), the grilled cheese sandwich and the pasta salad.
(5)Danyelle T.
Delicious pizza! We had the diavolo and the vegetable pizza. Both were great! We came back for more before out vacation was over!
(4)Christian K.
Good pizza, bad service. New Year's Eve down in NOLA was a bombardment of new experiences. After we watched the fireworks over the mighty Miss, our stomachs were grumbling, so we went in search for grub. This lead our group to Angeli on Decatur. Angeli wasn't too busy, just around one in the morning. We were seated pretty promptly by our waiter, who looked kind of like a dragged out Buster Poindexter. We ordered three different types of pizza: two small specialty pizzas and a large sausage. Everyone seemed pretty satisfied with their order. These fresh hand-tossed concoctions truly hit the spot after a long night of shenangins in the French Quarter! However, we were confronted by another patron with a nearly full pitcher of beer. He said that they were leaving and figured it shouldn't go to waste. We were happy to take the beer off his hands, but apparently Buster saw the pitcher sitting on our table and tried to charge us for it. We received one bill for the pizzas and one for the ten dollar pitcher. When we told him that somebody gave us the beer, he scoffed at us and said it was ten dollars anyway! I realize how crazy New Year's must have been for the guy, but don't charge somebody for beer that you didn't even bring to the table. Keep track of your patrons, buddy! Nonetheless, I still advocate Angeli's!

Salad!!!!!! At last!!!! I had the worst time trying to find some vegetables while in N.O. So I was super grateful to find this place via yelp and see salad. this salad was one of the best salads I've had too. It was the Greek salad and I added chicken. First of all the portion was huge!!! I had so much left over that I munched on later. It was very flavorful. The best part about this salad though was the dressing. You must try the sun dried tomato dressing!!! His dressing was so good I tried to look up a recipe when I got home, I need to find this dressing it was so good. I went in the pouring rain on a early Saturday two weeks ago, place was empty then idk why because that salad was on point. Definitely one of the places I would return to

Great atmosphere and attentive friendly staff. Being in New Orleans it's not easy finding something on the healthy side, but I lucked out finding this place! While the food won't blow you away like some of the cities finest restaurants, Angeli on Decatur provides great options that will satisfy both the hunger beast and healthy minded. I recommend this place!

Great casual pizza for a true New Orleans experience. Located in the heart of it all. I'm sure this place is hustling at night we were there for lunch and it was slow but pizza was still wonderful. Ambiance isn't great but not necessary for good pizza! Price was affordable!
(4)Bobby B.
Back pre-Katrina, I used to get food delivered from here. It was usually cold and took forever, but the flavors were pretty good. When I went in, the bartender was the nicest thing ever. So it made me forgive the less than perfect food. It was always a bit grungy but comfortable. I hope it has still kept that level of comfort. I should really go back sometime. I loved the flat bread.
(4)Elaine W.
So we walked in and it was dead, but the waiter was friendly and approached us right away. We ordered salad and pizzas. Some of the lettuce was a bit brown, and I was disappointed, but whatever. Started in on my mushroom and pepperoni pizza and thought it tasted great. On my third slice, I bit something hard--was chewing it and it just wasn't right. I spit out the bite and found a FINGERNAIL. Yep, that's right. Like someone had been clipping their nails and it was laid down in my pizza. I was so disgusted and we called the waiter over. He was horrified. They comped our meal, but I went in the bathroom and threw up. Waiter was super nice, but there's no way I could ever go back. How could that have ended up in my pizza? I don't even want to know.
(1)Miss C.
Good food. Good service. I had the meatball sub & it was delicious. We had a group of 7 for lunch & the server did really well. I love the art work most of all. I would definitely dine here again.
(4)Jill M.
Living just a short drive from NOLA, friends and I visit pretty often. There's a few restaurant we always make sure to hit when we're in town. We were on our way to one of those places when we stumbled upon Angeli, and decided to give it a shot. We got the spicy tomato spread with pita to start, and it was amazing! I also had a sandwich, which was quite substantial, and came with a hearty portion of super yummy pesto pasta salad. We actually came back again the next day, and have been back each visit since!
(4)Paul T.
This place never lets me down...I've been frequenting this establishment for fifteen years and it always has cool servers, and delicious food way into late night in the bustling social scene of lower Decatur. "The Sampler" is not to be something to miss!!

My wife ordered the eggplant and mushroom pizza for delivery. We were both excited to give it a whirl. They promised us 45-50 minutes delivery (We are only .5 mile away). One hour later we called to ask for an update on our order. The guy said the delivery guy is out with our pizza. After that, nada. No pizza. So we called again, and this time they told us our pizza was sitting in their restaurant waiting to go out. Whaaaat?! So we had no choice but to find another place to eat. At this moment I am sitting in another restaurant, waiting for my food, and dying of hunger. And thinking a lot about the pizza that could have been.
(1)Ryan G.
Ordered delivery and items were left off, toppings missing, and one whole pizza switched for another. Called the restaurant and was told a new pizza was on the way--an hour later we call back and they had forgotten us.
(1)Ryan H.
We each had a personal pizza and they were pretty good. Crust was really good though. Small beer selection and the atmosphere was lacking (might have bee the Monday evening dinner time?). Staff was friendly but we were expecting a little more based on previous Yelp reviews.
(3)Katharine C.
We were here back in July and it was mediocre food. But at the time we were starving so it was convenient. Here again for Mardi Gras and it was just such an awful experience. We came in with a group of friends and some ordered beers and food. The server, the red headed guy with a half shaved head, asked everyone how they were and cut off the first person to answer and said "like I give a shit." I'd like to think I have a good sense of humor and understand that working in the service industry during Mardi Gras is probably awful. However, no need to treat people that way. I had intended on ordering food but after that comment and several other snide/rude comments we just left. Never want to go there again. Dude is an unhappy dick head obviously.
(1)Muse Z.
Dead at midnight on a Friday...if the service seems...off...(aka baked/drunk outta their minds)...it's not you...it's them. Literally. Them. It's good enough when you're hungry, when it's late, not busy, and you don't want to travel far...but during the day I'd probably go else where.
(3)Donna A.
We planned on eating at another restaurant & they were closed for lunch because of Easter. We ended up here & we hadn't been here in several years. The salad & pizzas was delicious! The atmosphere here is definitely lacking especially with its graffiti on the bathroom stalls but it's New Orleans. I have been to dives like this before & sometimes it those places that serve some of the best food.
(4)Eric D.
So let me preface this with we didn't get here on purpose. My wife and I were actually waiting to eat at Coops, but after an ungodly wait, we decided to move along. After a bit of wandering, we ended up here. We walked by the window and saw someone eating the most beautiful pizza crust we'd ever seen. That's when we knew where we were eating that night. We started with a grilled chicken salad, which was actually amazing all by itself. The chicken was amazing, and the greens and vegetables were all remarkably fresh. The dressing was made in house and was also delicious. Now onto the pizza! The crust was just as exquisite as I previously mentioned. We got a large pie with pepperoni, black olives, mushrooms, and bell peppers. The mushrooms were fresh, which is a big deal to me. When you pulled off a slice, the cheese strings pulled for miles. It was mucho awesome-o! All in all, great place! A little pricey, but you're getting what you pay for.
(5)Brandon A.
I've never been in angeli's before midnight. This used to be my favorite after work spot when I waited tables in the quarter and would some nights work until 2am. Definitely quirky often there's an obscure film playing on the projector and the staff are quirky as well. The food is well priced and extremely good. They have great pizza, quite possibly the best in the quarter. Their sandwiches are top notch and they are served with some of the best pasta salad I've ever had. All in all even if it's not midnight I'd recommend Angeli's.
(4)Jeannie P.
I don't normally give 5 stars but I have no complaints about this place. My bf took me here to try the pasta salad. I'm soooo glad he did. We each ordered an Abita Amber (served in cold glasses). I wanted something simple because sometimes, simple is the best. Grilled cheese sandwich....served with lettuce and tomatoes. Very good. But the star was the pasta salad. I could have eaten JUST THAT! Oh, and for an appetizer, feta cheese and spinach triangle...something like that. Sooooo good! The staff was very friendly. Welcoming us there and sending us off with "have a good night". The location is on the outside of the FQ so it's quiet and not crowded. Can't wait to go back!
(5)Christopher W.
One of the best pizza stops in the city but the calzone, not so much. There is an art to making a great calzone, the dough, the cheese and other ingredients have to be baked at the right temperature for the right amount of time for it to be great. Unfortunately on this one the dough was perfect but not much else. Both the cheese and the eggplant was undercooked. I still will go for a good pizza especially when they have so many varieties but no on the calzone.
(3)John L. H.
I never knew what Angeli was until last week. Angeli is an interesting place. The clientele seemed to mostly be hard partying people trying to fill their bellies so they could consume more alcohol. That is in no way a bad thing, as everyone knows, good food helps you party longer. The menu is different than most late night eateries and I chose the gyro with pasta salad. Apparently they are known for their pasta salad (what a thing to be known for), and it didn't disappoint. In fact, it was the best pasta salad I have ever had. The gyro was OK, but not great. I think I would order something different next time as long as it came with pasta salad. Service at the bar was a bit slow, but the place was packed. I felt like the meal was a good value, but the gyro just wasn't very memorable. I was glad to discover Angeli and will update my review after subsequent trips.
(3)Ryne B.
I'll keep this one short: they deliver hot, fresh pizza; great toppings, sauce, cheese, and most importantly - crust. Try the wings. They're really good too.
(5)Shala M.
This place was really good. We stopped in after finally making a decision about where to eat and we're not disappointed. The portions are pretty large and easy to share. We ordered the garlic cheese bread, chicken chef salad, and the pesto pasta with chicken. All of the food was good and our bill was only $34
(4)Sadie P.
This place is my favorite restaurant I've ever been to. I live in chicago and get cravings for it all the time! It's relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff are awesome, and it's great for lunch, dinner, or late night. The tomato salad dressing is delicious, and their sandwiches are perfect. My favorite was the turkey. The pizza we got was incredible but I forgot the name. Starts with a V and has garlic herb sauce and artichokes. In terms of drinks id say one of the best bloody Mary's in the quarter. Be careful of: no split checks, no substitutions, and no separated orders.
(5)Gabe R.
I have been to Angeli's probably a dozen times before but this past time being my 1st time I wasn't at least halfway shit faced. I always remembered being pretty satisfied and that the pasta salad was really good. My drunken memory served me pretty well as the food was really good. The lady friend and I started with some Feta and Spinach Traingles. These were lightly fried doughy spinachy goodness sprinkled with Feta....you can guess the shape on your own. Then I got the Italian Feast sammich with a side of pasta salad. This pasta salad is like heaven. I wish I could just say give me a big ass bowl of the pasta salad with a big wooden spoon...here's my American Express card. It's that damn good. The Italian Feast sandwich is pretty good too. It's ham, salami, pastami, mozzarella, lettuce and tomato. All baked on I think a sourdough bun. Really good. The grilled cheese my girlfriend had was tasty too. I think it was cheddar and mozzeralla on the same bread. So why only 3 stars? Well the place itself is a rather shithole. Shitholes I don't really mind per se. I mean there were 3 different styles of floor in the same dining room. There was hardwood, some crappy looking small tile that looked like it would have been in Lucille Ball's house, and another tile that looked like the bathroom of a middle school. That doesn't bother me but the creepy angels on the walls kind of do. These pictures are all for sale at RIDICULOUS prices. They wanted $600.00 for some crappy drawing. Then there were disco balls all hanging around it. Weird. Ok that alone would only knock it down a star. So I was walking back to the car yapping with the lady friend thinking it would be a 4 star review. Then we get to the car only to find a $40.00 parking ticket for being within 20 ft of a stop sign ( i was probably 18.....Damn meter maids!). Angeli's the parking ticket wasn't your fault but sometimes in life we pay for things that are not really our responsibility. So blame the NOPD for your loss of a star. If I got to pay, so do you.
(3)Suzanne C.
I always end up here after Yelp events, and I can't say I'm sad about it. Angeli is a perfect slightly drunk place to nosh. In fact, I'm pretty sure the staff nurse a slow buzz themselves because everyone seems a little unfazed around here. The service isn't ever stunning, but it doesn't completely blow. There is a middle ground that Angeli occupies. (Or maybe I keep going at really bad times like late at night or the middle of a slow afternoon when everyone should be napping.) Someone recommended I try the pasta salad--hot damn! This was worth the trip, and I keep coming back to it. OM NOM NOM. There are also real vegetarian options that are generally well-executed. Some of them are a little greasy or over-cheesed, but that shouldn't be a complaint. Who doesn't love cheese? (Not this girl!) What else should I say about Angeli? I keep coming back here. The food makes me happy. The pasta salad is amazing. I'm mostly drunk when I eat here, and I'm really okay with that record. WOO. Accessibility notes: no Braille menu or signage. Can get loud at peak hours. Step up into the restaurant.
(4)Amanda L.
It was our first night in NOLA, and we were starving. The woman working the door at either Blue Nile or Three Muses pointed us this way, since we were starving. I don't know why we ordered pizza, having just come from New York, but I'm glad we did. We got the pizza with the bacon; I want to say it was called the mystic pizza or something like that. I don't think there was sauce on it, which may have been why it was so good (if pizza is bad, it's usually because of the sauce). We were impressed by how yummy this pizza was. Service was somewhat slow, but it didn't bother us too much. I don't know if I'd ever return, since it's unlikely I'd go to NOLA for pizza, but I can see why it's highly rated on Yelp.
(4)KC H.
My boyfriend and I were looking for a quick and quiet spot to grab some food after a long day of touring the French Quarter. We stopped here and the location was very quiet for its location. Our server was very attentive and extremely friendly. The Lucifer's Pizza was perfect!!! However, we didn't like the Tomato Dip.... It was more like paste.
(4)Angela P.
At some point I'd bookmarked Angeli's as a late night food spot. I knew that, without a doubt, we'd need late night food during our stay in New Orleans. Our last night here, we had such a massive lunch that we ended up skipping dinner. Or was it a liquid dinner? We ordered a pizza, the...Angelic Spirit? Angel something? Oh hell, it had mozzarella, mushrooms, spinach, and a really good sauce. No, it isn't Chicago style pizza, but that didn't make it bad. It was actually really, really good pizza. Big fan of their crust and cheese. I wish we had Angeli's in Chicago, but I'm sure a lot of die hard pizza fans would crap all over it. Well, guess what Chicago? New Orleans has some damn good, late night pizza that'll knock your socks off! Definitely add them to your "must eat" list. We could've stopped in, since we were at Molly's, but we wanted to go back to the hotel. Angeli delivers until 2:00 a.m., and I suspected that ordering a pizza at 11:00 p.m. would take a painfully long time. I called, sat on hold for probably 3-4 minutes, making me more anxious and hungry, but our pizza was delivered in half an hour! How's that for service? Considering that you can't really navigate the French Quarter by car (or, if you attempt it, I think you're an idiot), I was impressed by the speed of our delivery. $20 and 30 minutes later, I was no longer a hungry, hungry hippo. Well, at least not the hungry part!
(5)Steve I.
Another wonderful restaurant in the Quarter. Casual setting, wonderful food, and cheap prices! Some of the stars on the menu: - Grilled Chicken Sandwich: Moist, succulent chicken breast. - Portabella Mushroom Sandwich: Awesome! - Grilled Cheese Sandwich: Best grilled cheese sandwich around. - Angel Pizza: Spinach, artichokes, tomatoes, and mushrooms! - Chicken Diavolo Pizza: Grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and a spicy red sauce. - Mystical Pizza: Love this pizza! If you like sundried tomatoes and bacon get this pizza. - Pasta Salad: Simple yet delicious. FYI: Almost all of their sandwiches and pizzas are served with mozzarella cheese :)
(4)B N.
Great calzones! Love the chicken calzone, which is huge and a bargain compared to the other overpriced restaurants in the French Quarter. The chicken diavolo pizza rocks if you're into a pizza with a little kick. Overall, excellent Italian food and great sauce. The biggest con is the location, which is near the Decatur/Frenchmen St. divide. This is where all the angst-filled and troublemaking homeless hippies gravitate. One of them walked by the restaurant and kept sticking his middle finger at all the patrons. Wasn't too pleasant, when with the family.
(4)Judy H.
Visiting from NYC. Came to Angeli's a more expansive vegetarian option. Yes, NOLA is not known for vegetarian dishes. Ordered the Angeli Pizza and the pasta salad. Pizza has a poor balance of flavor. It wasn't awful but just too savory as it had feta cheese, roasted garlic, eggplant, sun dried tomatoes, a garlic sauce and some other items. Pasta salad was alright but lacked veggies....and for some reason there was an odd single sliver of lettuce in it. What's up with that? Service wasn't top notch. there was mainly one server and three guys behind the counter chatting. The place doesn't look the cleanest and definitely isn't. We noticed something in our waters and asked for a new one. Half way thru the glass of water and all the way thru the meal, we noticed the 2nd one had something in it. ...Both waters had COCKROACH. When brought up to the employees/owners, all the said was there's bugs everywhere. That's so stupid. Bugs and pest are a natural part of life so it's okay to have it in our foods and serve it to your customers repeatedly? I'm wondering if they even cleaned out the cup before or changed the cup when we first advised them. Also, they gave us no apologies or credits of any sorts. Just charged us full. We took a picture of it and added to the Yelp pictures. Perhaps, NOLA should consider the sanitation grading system. NEVER AGAIN, ANGELI, NEVER AGAIN!!! !!!!unless you want to be eating, drinking and possibly throwing up after eating here...stay away!!!! Can i give a negative 5 star?
(1)Lorenzo B.
Man the employees may look crazy, but they know how to make a pie! Great crust excellent sauce cooked right! Not a great looking place
(4)The Peoples Soldier S.
Customer service at this place licks ballz! Driver wouldn't deliver. We even offered an extra tip. We called an hour later asking where our pizza at, guy hung up after he knew he was talking to the guys that didn't get their pizza. Don't know how their pizza taste but I wouldn't taste it now their customer service already left a bad taste in my mouth.
(1)Bryan G.
This is my favorite lunch spot in New Orleans. They have a killer range of vegetarian options. I always opt for one of the three vegetarian sandwiches. The pasta salad is also the greatest pasta salad to ever exist. It's one of the best foods I've ever had. My girlfriend got the vegetarian wrap, which I'd never tried but it was delicious. I've also heard that the pizza is killer although I've never tried it. Angeli was the first truly great food spot I found in New Orleans. I would recommend this place to anyone, from the long time New Orleannian and first time tourist. Whenever I have a friend come to town I always take them here for lunch or dinner whenever we spend a day in the quarter.
(5)Clarice O.
Angeli's was the very first restaurant I have dined at in New Orleans. Due to some confusion about transportation, my original arrival of 12:30 AM at my bed and breakfast became 2:45 AM. At this point, I have not had anything to eat for over 14 hours and my last meal was a small garden salad. To say that I was famished by then is a major understatement. I wanted to get started with Creole food, but the concierge at my B&B (located at Esplanade) told me that Angeli's is the nearest restaurant still open and the food is really good. Also, it is along the way to Cafe du Monde (whose beignets I was more than anxious to try). Reluctantly, I took my concierge's advice and headed to Angeli's. It did not disappoint. The bartender/waiter, Josh, is a rockstar and was my hero that night! He was very accommodating and was my first introduction to the renowned Southern hospitality. I didn't bother with the menu but asked him to recommend something that would be prepared quickly and that did not contain red meat. He suggested the Virtuous Angel pizza. With a name like that, how could a girl resist?!? The artichoke, spinach and mushroom toppings were very good with the garlicky sauce. But the cheese. That cheese..... Mmmm... I couldn't get enough of it! Definitely check Angeli's out. The food is reasonably priced and really rather tasty. The staff are friendly and interesting to talk to. The location is fairly near Frenchmen and the French Market. And they are open late.
(4)Whitney E.
Love the hummus. Great spot post parades and if you have a large party. Affordable food and yummy pizza.
(5)Joi B.
Time to update the ol' Angeli review. Let's talk about lunch. Angeli is a good option for those vegetarians who dare to get hungry in the afternoon hours (and the midnight hours, too, as you know they are open 24-hours). Whereas in the past, I couldn't tear myself away from the hummus wrap or pizzas, the other day I decided to mix it up a bit and get the spinach artichoke sandwich. Perfection between 2 slices of bread. All of the ingredients, super fresh and the bread, a crusty sour dough... irresistible shebang. I thought I was hungry enough to eat the whole thing, but it's *enormous* (and of course I scarfed down the entire portion of that delish pasta salad I'm always going on about. Tossed with balsamic, tomatoes, olives... god, it's good, though I wouldn't mind a couple more olives, just sayin'). Great value and definitely for those not faint of appetite. My friend and I were the only people in here at around 3pm (not surprising, I'm just noting it) and our server was pretty on point.
(4)Frid H.
I was assaulted by the red haired hostess. Otherwise I love this place. I called and asked for a "large vegetarian piZZA" reply was "$20.62" when I arrived hostess told me "we have like five veg pizzas, you get nothing!" I said I'll wait for any veg pizza. But instead I got a fat lip. 10+ punches to the face. Police on it. Unbelievable. Please fire that red haired dude.
(1)Ashley F.
The divine portabella was perfect! I will order this again, simply for that dish. Got a small salad with a very good balsamic dressing, although salad was a bit small for the price. Id go with a large next time. Highly recommend!
(4)Stephanie K.
Stopped in here for a bite and a drink after checking into my hotel. Ordered a margarita, a Caesar salad, and a pepperoni calzone. The salad was pretty good- lettuce was crisp and bright and the croutons the right size, but the dressing wasn't that great. The drink served its purpose, but I needed two to feel anything. The calzone came out pretty quickly and smelled delicious! I could only eat half. It was yummy! I would come back again, but would stick with a calzone and no alcohol.
(4)Marielle S.
One of my favorite places to eat in the quarter. They have delicious food. From sandwiches to pizza. My absolute favorite is the Mystic pizza. Oh my gah! It is so good. I seem to remember gettng a pasta salad here once. I love how big the servings are here and the place is perfect for groups. Also, this place is open late, so it's a great place to stop if you need some dinner after a long night. Try not to be put off by the paintings on the wall that seem to resemble Angelina Jolie. Fun fact: a friend of mine lives in the apartment directly above this place and his pad smells like pizza 24/7...a little cool and a little weird, eh?
(4)Jaime A.
They were open when I desperately needed them to be! BAAM! I'm sold; g'night! FYI, the pizza we had was out of this world! And around 1AM... I can't image glory tasting any better!
(5)Iris T.
Angeli's is the perfect getaway from the crazy crowded restaurants around NOLA. The food is incredibly delicious & leaves you wanting seconds!
(5)Eran M.
(vegan/vegetarian - New Orleans is totally doable!) Great spot for a casual lunch or dinner. My wife got the 4-cheese pizza and said it was very good - it was definitely big enough for two to share. I asked for a vegan version of the portabella mushroom sandwich, and it was *amazing*. And filling. And I'm a pretty hungry guy. The great food along with the friendly and kind service leaves nothing to be desired. Yey for Angeli!
(5)John H.
The food here is good, however it is not consistent. Some times it is better than others. My main problem is with the hipster wait staff. I ordered the grilled chicken Caesar salad, cost about $9 which is ok for the size. I handed the hipster waiter who never checked on me a twenty dollar bill, he had the audacity to ask "Do you need change".....really made me want to leave no tip. Rude service. Food is sometimes great other times just ok.
(2)Hillary W.
In from out of town, I came here with two girlfriends. We had a great time, good food, fun setting, and they have cocktails. This place certainly has a fun, rustic vibe that veers on hipster without being pretentious or any negative aspects of that word. Large portions on my pesto pasta and the waiter was really great, keeping our water refilled. Located in the heart of the french quarter - we walked back to Bourbon to engage in debauchery! Also surrounded by great galleries and cute shops. Will return next time I'm in town!
(5)Christina I.
So I used to love this place, and don't get me wrong, I still love the food, but the establishment itself needs some work. I've enjoyed everything I've ever eaten from here in the past, and I've mostly had it delivered to me. But recently I went in to dine and had a not so pleasant experience. The service was not exactly friendly, and didn't pay much attention to us. The restaurant seemed pretty musty and not very clean. I didn't notice it until a few minutes after sitting down, but the restaurant started smelling like terrible body odor. We all know that smell and that's exactly what it was. We ordered our food and drinks and from then on I was nauseous. My girlfriend and I tried to rush through the meal, but could barely stomach it. We would've taken our food to go, but by that point, eating the food was even nauseating. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be ordering from them again because of this experience. I hope they make some changes soon.
(1)Lisa N.
meh, don't really know what all the fuss is about. I heard Angelina and Brad often come here, so I had to try it. Plus my cousins from NOLA frequent Angeli's as well. We came here at about 10PM on a weekday and were promptly seated (luckily there was no wait at the time). The doors remain open, so there were many flies buzzing around, unfortunately. We ordered 2 sandwiches with the ever-so-popular pasta salad and the pesto pasta without chicken. Sandwiches (~$7/each)- big, tasty, and well worth the price Pasta Salad (otinni pasta, red onions, mushrooms, olives tossed in a balsamic base)- not as great as everyone says; it reminded me of pasta from a salad bar in Whole Foods and missed my expectations from fellow yelpers Pesto Pasta (pesto with sundried tomatoes, kalamata olives, and rotini pasta for $11)- generous portion, but something in it that was very chewy that I had to take out of my mouth after each bite... I believe it was aged bamboo shoots =( Our server was friendly, but the service was slow because he was the only one waiting on 6 or 7 tables. (+) open late until 2AM on Sun-Thurs, 4AM Fri + Sat, great value on the sandwiches (-) slow service, flies, crowded, street parking
(3)Karen R.
Mediocre food and terrible service. Waited over an hour for a pepperoni pizza and a chicken salad on a non-busy Sunday night. Waitress never came back to our table after giving us drinks. Finally after 2 other groups after us got food I asked what was up. She said there was a "glitch" in the system and orders had to be re-entered. Never apologized or came to our table to let us know. Didn't offer to discount our meal for the wait. She really didn't give a crap. We had Dante pizza 2 nights before on St. Peters and it was WAY better with friendly and fast service. Don't waste your time or money here.

Being hungry at 2 a.m. doesn't necessarily mean po-boys or burgers; Angeli on Decatur has pasta dishes, artisan sandwiches and wraps, salads, and other choices that are good for you (or at least not bad for you). I am a night owl and can vouch that it's hard to find anywhere else in the Quarter where you can find a yummy meal that you'd eat at any hour of the day, and your personal trainer wouldn't slap you upside the head.
(4)Dennis L.
Angeli on Decatur is one of my favorite spots in the French Quarter. It's pretty non-descript with the exception of their "unique" art on the walls. It has a divey feel, but the food delivers. I always start out with the Sampler Plate, which is a must order. It consists of hummus, spicy tomato spread, roasted red peppers & feta with pita triangles. Everything on the plate is great, but the spicy tomato spread is simply wonderful. Other the sampler, you cannot visit Angeli without trying their pizza. In my opinion, it is the best in New Orleans. The Chicken Diavolo is my go-to: spicy red pepper sauce, mozzarella cheese, grilled chicken, red onions, roasted garlic, and jalapeno peppers. This pizza is simply amazing! Look at the picture I took of it and disagree...I dare you! You really cannot go wrong at Angeli. I look forward to my next trip to NOLA to pay a visit.
(4)Johnathan N.
Service was great food was good, until I saw those rats running by our table. A customer walked out after she seen them too, poor lady. Would I come back? Maybe.
(3)Sarah V.
Delicious!! Hummus was very good and the chicken diavolo was phenomenal. (Minus onions) there are entire garlic cloves inside the pizza so be prepared. The waiter was really nice! We got there at 1:00am so it was perfect for a late night meal.
(4)Shannon S.
This is probably the most dive Italian/Mediterranean joint in NOLA. They have pizza, pasta and sandwiches. The food is generally good and the service ranges from attentive to indifferent depending on who, what and when is going on. The last thing I ate here was the pasta marinara with meatballs which overall was good except my meatballs were cold. I probably wouldn't suggest this as an initial spot to bring a date but the prices are very affordable for NOLA and a bargain in the Quarter.

This was one of my regular places to come for late night food when I lived in nola. I love this place. The lucifer pizza is wonderous. Actually all the pizza i've had here as been pretty rad. They have some solid topping combinations. The spicy tomato dip is one of my favorite dips on the planet....and I love dips. I regularly got the dip for dinner instead of an entree. Spicy sweet tomatoes and feta served with warm pita slices. MMMMMM good. I haven't had it in quite a while but the portabella pasta is sweeeeeeet. Angeli's is glorious just because this pasta has HUGE slices of portabella mushrooms not just tiny dime sized thin bites. Man, now I want it. Should've had that instead of dip when I went last week. The service can be slow and spotty but it's usually pretty good and the servers are usually pretty interesting to talk to. I also love that they typically play some weird/funky movies or music videos on the wall. Their alcohol selections are pretty great for it being such a tiny place. Oh and they deliver in the quarter too!! Yay considering nobody delivers in NOLA. Delivery is seriously lacking in the city.

I've been going to place long before I lived or worked in the French Quarter. Is it the best? No but it does have a lot of pluses. The pizzas are always consistently good, the calzones are great, good hummus, and a really good grilled cheese sandwich. It is very casual and relatively inexpensive. The only drawback is that the staff can be a little rude or short with you at times. Oh yes and they have Barq's in a bottle which all restaurants in New Orleans should have, especially casual dining ones like this. Overall Angeli's should get 3 1/2 stars. I will always keep going back here and keep them in my rotation of pizza delivery options. Oh yeah and they're open till 2am which is always nice.

Well I guess we were a little disappointed, but it was okay. I had the spicy meatballs with pasta - not as spicy as some reviews stated, but just not that exciting. My husband ordered the chicken diavola pizza - soggy crust in the middle put a damper in the good flavor. Would we go back - probably not. Did it suck - no. I'm just giving it an honest so-so.
(3)John G.
In from out of town, San Antonio, and was staying in the Marigny district at the Lion's Inn and wanted to find some late night fare. Bingo! Walked in around midnight or so, may have been one other couple there, and got the chicken and pesto pizza and was quite delighted with the quality and service. Had no problems at all here, good pick and good experience, certainly hit the spot!

I walked in here on the spur of the moment, having thought about going in many times, but just not. Anyway, I ordered the spicy meatball sandwich with pasta salad and a vodka gimlet. The bartender asked me what was in a gimlet, then said "oh yeah" when I told him. Kinda adorable. The drink was good, not that it is a hard one. ;). For some reason, I was surprised that the sandwich was round. I think I expected it to be on a hoagie roll or something. It was nice that it was cut in half. The bun was also toasted. I think only the outside, since the inside seemed a tiny bit "gummy" from the sauce. The meatball sandwich was spicy, as advertised, not overly so, but nice. the pasta salad was fine. The bartender was attentive enough and I really did like the meatballs. I am looking forward to trying them with pasta rather than a sandwich.

We stopped here for a bite to eat last minute to avoid the craziness on Bourbon Street, luckily we got sat right away. The servers were friendly but a tad slow on greeting us and taking a drink order. We ordered the pasta salad that everyone was raving about on Yelp, it was good but nothing exceptional. We also ordered a Caesar salad which was good and we shared the Chicken pizza. Overall an easy dinner night in New Orleans, not somewhere we would make sure to stop at each visit. There are many amazing food options around town. Would recommend if you want something super laid back, you don't appreciate the amazing Cajun New Orleans cuisine or you have small children.

We're living it up vacationing in the Marigny Bywater area. We just finished eating a delivery meal from Angeli's, and I have to let everyone who wants to hear me know that this place was fantastic. Delivery was reasonable - took about 40 minutes. I ordered Angeli Greens salad, a large pepperoni sausage pizza, and garlic bread. And then, I saw that they have burgers. Being a burger fanatic, I had to have one, so I picked their Mediterranean burger, that came with a side. There were a few, but the pasta salad was something I couldn't pass up. Loved everything - the pizza was still hot and delicious, the salad was a simple salad but they sent a whole bunch of it and three of us were able to share, the garlic bread was tasty and moist but crunchy, and the pasta salad was everything I want pasta salad to be. I loved the burger, too - and kudos to a pizza place that delivers burgers and makes regular and fancy ones - but it was a little dry. Even though I wanted to grab that "fancy" ketchup packet my fiancé said he needed right out of his hands, I kinda knew the burger needed a moistener. Total cost for all this food? $40. The only reason our cost went that high was because I wanted us to get the full experience of this place. So worth it!
(4)Baylee B.
I'm giving this place 5 stars based on food quality & price. Don't be fooled by the decor, this place is a diamond in the rough! The pizza is delicious & noticeably homemade. We had the spinach triangles as an appetizer, inventive and yummy! The food is very good & the service is good! I highly recommend if you're looking for tasty lower price food.
(5)Lisa P.
I'm so sad! I went and got my usual, and the hummus tasted a bit like plastic. Something was off about the pizza, too. And there was no longer a cocktail menu. When asked about the bar offerings, our server stated that they have "beer, wine, and liquor, but not many options of each." The ambiance seemed different as well, but that could have been a result of my displeasure with the rest of the experience.
(2)Tere F.
They have vegan options and are open late night.
(4)Lauren S.
Not a ton of atmosphere, but a darn fine pie. Fresh ingredients, tasty crust. I'd go back if I'm in the neighborhood. (Great neighborhood!)
(4)Cassandra S.
Food was ok, ambiance was poor and the bathrooms were deplorable. Will not go there again.
(1)Paul O.
Great value, well-prepared food. Like the sandwiches, pizza and pasta, and they deliver. The pasta, for example, is usually large enough to last for lunch the next day, so double the value. There are better Italian places in NOLA, but not at these prices. Staff have always been super friendly and helpful.
(4)Dallas T.
I love the food here. I have been coming here for 6 years or so and sadly, each time it has gotten worse. It used to be my favorite pizza place and I'd drive from all over the city to get a celestial chicken pizza. As a local and a former quarter rat and veteran service industry worker, I'm offended by this place now. I can't get my salad before my meal? There are 3 tables that all had their food and they tell me they are too slammed to bring a salad out before a meal, oh unless I pay extra for a dinner salad instead of a side salad. I don't care about no split checks or any of the bs on the back of the menu, although it's a real turn off that it looks like a big bold Ten Commandments of "no, don't even ask". But, the people are just plain rude. I got charged for two drinks because they didn't tell me they don't have sweet tea and I asked for a soda instead. Have you ever tried to dissolve sugar in ice tea? You can't. The staff is rude and dirty and looks like they hate their job. If you're that jaded from working in the French quarter, go get another job. There is plenty of work in this city. We bussed our own table because no one felt like cleaning any of the empty tables that were all trashed. I still left a decent tip because they more than likely expected a shitty one and I'm not that girl. Maybe next time they will be a little better a determining the drunk douche bag tourists from locals who just want to eat. Oh, did I mention it was my birthday? Great night... If I hadn't been so hungry and tired from performing that night, I wouldn't have even bothered.
(2)Arlon F.
This is one of the worse dinning experiences i have ever had. Our server was so rude to us that i did not want to eat there. My meatball sandwich was the worse i have ever had also. It was awe full and then i realized why we were the only people in the restaurant. I will never enter this establishment again !!!
(1)Maria H.
Brought my vegan daughter here and she enjoyed it. Angeli special was very good. My sisters meatball sandwich was good.
(4)Chase B.
Ate sandwiches and calzones. A lot of food, good quality, great taste and reasonable prices. Would recommend to others. Side note...if you do not have a large appetite...then share the calzone...it is huge.
(5)Darrin Y.
Remember Steak-Um? They serve something like it here. Probably my bad for ordering a gyro at an Italian-ish place. Bit three strips of Steak-Um? Not kidding here - took me back to the 70's (generally don't want that). Three identically sized rectangles of beef-food. And them some greens and pita. I couldn't believe it. Still can't. The worst excuse for a gyro I've ever seen. I hope it's the worst thing on the menu. On the other hand, the pasta salad was pretty nice. I've heard their pizza is good, but haven't had it. Don't order the gyro.
(2)E F.
We stopped here for late night dinner. This place is loud and grungy. Food: Spaghetti + meatballs: $10.25 Pizza - Small Lucifer special - pepperoni, sausage, ham, peppers, onions: $11.50 Honestly, they said the meatballs were spicy, but it wasn't just the meatballs. This dish was so spicy and salty, I couldn't eat it. :(
(2)Ed M.
Stopped here at lunch time because it was open and the prices listed appeared to be reasonable (New Orleans standards for reasonable that is). Eight dollars and fifty cents for the sandwiches with one side. It was 20 minutes after opening time and there were no other customers in the place so there was no wait. I had the Portabella Mushroom sandwich with pasta salad and coffee. Overall the sandwich was okay but the bun was too dry and crunchy. The actual items of the veggie sandwich were okay but the bread was dry. The pasta salad was some of the best I have had anywhere. My meal would rate a 3.5 out of five. The other person had the Roasted Eggplant sandwich with green salad and coffee. Let me say this, we cook and eat eggplant quite often but have never had it as a sandwich item. The eggplant sandwich was described as terrible. The eggplant was tough and overcooked which when added to the dry bun was too much of a bad thing. The green salad was average. That meal would rate about a 2.0 or lower. The server was quick and courteous but for the first 10 minutes we were the only people there so what else did he have to do? We tried it once and it didn't leave an above average impression so with so many other places to go in New Orleans we won't be back.
(2)Alyce Z.
Stopped here while on a weekend trip with a childhood friend who is a regular. At 7pm on a Saturday the place was dead. We ordered beers, but three of the kegs were out. Our waitress was as spacey as it gets, even for NOLA. However, once the crowd picked up and our food came, my impression completely changed. Pizza and eggplant app are wonderful! Some of the best I've had! Prices are very reasonable. I'll definitely be back!
(4)Chase H.
I love this little place. It's one place I stop when I'm in New Orleans. Great for a daytime beer drinking place. Food is decent and the wait staff is nice. I love this interior of this corner restaurant. They have a little bar in there that you can sit at and people watch at sidewalk goers and other passers by. I recommend it.
(5)Eve L.
One of my very favorite lunch spots in Nola. Ate there for the first time in eight years the other day and I swear the food hasn't changed a bit. Best turkey sandwich on planet Earth. How they get the bread so tasty will forever be a mystery to me. (Witchcraft?). Love love love.
(5)Mark B.
A staple for consistently good, decently priced food when I'm in/around the Quarter. I deduct a star because of the cleanliness. However, with that being said one must not forget that you are in the French Quarter so a roach siting is not uncommon even in the cleanest of restaurants. Laid back atmosphere and as mentioned in another review some of the best pasta salad. The divine portobello, chicken caesar wrap are among my favorites here. Never been let down.
(4)Moira R.
The past few times I have been here the temperature has been more tolerable. In addition, the crust has even been better. I'll be curious to find out if the temperature remains tolerable when summer arrives.
(4)Jessica M.
Walking into this place and I'm immediately reminded of how much I love coming here. The walls are adorned with very interesting art. Some of which I would like to come home with me such as the hearts and angels. The pizza is quite delicious and brings me back time and time again. The cheese is really what makes it. It's gooey and creamy goodness makes me dream about the next time I"ll be coming back even while I'm still sitting there eating. OOO you know what else is awesome, they have pita with this tangy tomato dipping sauce so good and worth the try. AND I won't forget to include the salads, my favorite is the greek, but the others have their place in my thoughts as well. They are pretty big so if you want to share with your love or maybe just a friend feel free there will be enough for both of you. Small pizza and salad and you'll be good to go for the next few hours :) I Love the fact that they stay open so late as well, I have been known to waltz in after 1 a.m. on the weekends and you wouldn't know it was late by the sprite in their steps. YAY....! OH one last thing take a jacket because it can get a bit breezy when the fans are on.
(5)Loan N.
My favorite late night place in new Orleans! It's Mediterranean. Here's what you need to try: Divine portobello- portobello mushroom with chicken in a creamy sauce served with pita bread Spicy red pepper spread with pita Angel wings Lucifer special pizza- meat lovers pizza with pepper This place is really good especially after a night of drinking. All walks of life come through here. The walls are painted with art and has ambient lighting. I used to come here after work all the time. I miss it!
(5)Brandy W.
Excellent place for a delicious lunch at a fair price. We both enjoyed our meals and the nice cool air on the hot summer day. Would love to go to a movie night sometime!

Let's start with the fact that I could eat Angeli's pasta salad everyday, all day. I actually googled to see if the recipe has been copied or posted anywhere online just so I could make it at home (no luck...help?). Everything I've ever gotten here has not only been delicious, but has really had a great homemade quality to it that makes me love it even more. The grilled chicken is moist. The sandwiches are great. The pizza/calzone crust is chewy perfection, and the meatballs in the calzone are exactly as spicy as I like--I almost don't have to add crushed red pepper. The Tequila Blues monstrosity just opened up across the street so it may be getting much busier...great for Angeli's, but I hope nothing changes! I agree with previous reviewers that it's just a tad dirtier/divier than I would like, but if you eat here all of that is overlooked easily. If you are in the quarter looking for a great casual meal, this is ALWAYS the place to go. Now I need pasta salad.
(4)Lauren N.
Chill place with friendly waiters and delicious food. I love love love to grab some hummus and pizza.
(5)Vicky L.
I had a really hard week, and i wanted a daiquiri, so my roommate and I trekked down to FQ for a daiquiri, but my favorite place was closed. :( so we kept walking to this place for dinner instead. For a late night eatery, it doesn't have the stench of a late night eatery. It's a sparse, but clean place. Quiet too. My roommate got the eggplant sandwich. It looked really good, and she was raving about it the whole time. According to her, the eggplant had great texture. I'm going to try that next time. I had the chicken pasta salad. when it arrived, it looked like a pile of brown mess. but it was very tasty and comforting. It was especially really good the next day when i added lettuce to it. (i like my salads lightly dressed) for the price you pay, it's a really good deal, and you can get 2 meals out of eat entree (seriously, i'm a big eater, so i was surprised that i would have left overs).

Was visiting New Orleans with a group of friends, searching for a break from the hearty cajun/creole fare that we had been experimenting with all trip. Angeli On Decatur was a delightful change of pace. First of all, the service is helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is laid-back with tons of cool and quirky art work on the walls. I particularly loved facing out towards the large windows in the front of the restaurant. Great people watching lol! We had: -Mystical Pizza: Gooey cheesey, meaty, deliciousness! Nice bits of crunchy red onion in there too for a contrast of textures -Greek Salad: Refreshing and large portions! -Pesto Pasta with Chicken: Wasn't blown away. The pasta was overcooked and the chicken was tough. Large portion Take home point: We tried such a limited selection on the menu that I can't comment on their other offerings. But definitely get the mystical pizza when you visit!
(4)Warpo M.
I've always gotten good food here ... prices are reasonable - the few times I've had pizza delivered, it was prompt, and hot. It's one of my fave places to go when getting together with a lot of friends. Plenty of room and an atmosphere, you can talk and be heard..
(4)Amanda G.
Good pizza! I stopped into Angeli for lunch while walking around New Orleans. The restaurant has a very cool look. I was hesitant because there were only two other people in there, but I'm glad we decided to try it. I ordered a pepperoni and portobello mushroom pizza. It came out quick and was delicious! If you are planning to visit the restaurant with friends, prepare to pay on one check. The back of the menu states "no separate checks and no separate payments".
(3)Kelsey G.
Typical list when looking for food/Looking for food while intoxicated in the Quarter: Vegetarian dishes: Check If no vegetarian specific meals, Pizza?: Check Reasonable prices: Check Open almost every time I've walked by: Check There once was a thing called mimosas, and during Mardi Gras, those said mimosas sometimes got switched with vodka. Fast forward to lunch time during a brutal Saturday storm and we're strolling Frenchmen, soaked, starving and drunk, in search of food. We end up just past the rows of Jazz bars and in this fabulous dining establishment. Angeli has some of THE BEST pizza I've had and despite the rather interesting decor, I look forward to coming back here very, very soon.

Seriously - your bathrooms are this freakin nasty?? At a restaurant? I expect the bathrooms at the bars to be disgusting. This place was a joke. Last day in Nola and the significant something and I were getting some food in our belly and getting the heck out of dodge. This place billed itself as an Italian restaurant - but it was just a pizza joint with a couple of Italian dishes (alfredo, spaghetti, ...) Food: Awful. Caesar salad was trash. Had the powdered Parmesan same crap that was in the shakers to put on the pizza. Nasty old Romaine. I tried to pick out the wilted leaves, but there were just too many. Garlic "bread" with marinara was basically just a cheese pizza with the sauce on the side. Not sure where the garlic was. Pizza was a big let down. We'd been having pretty tasty New York style pizza as a late night snack on the strip. That pizza was delicious. This pizza was just a mess of cheese, pepperoni and grease. Did I say grease? Booze: I had a flat coke. The SS had an Abita. Atmosphere: Hot. Barely a hint of A/C. Bathrooms- nasty. Had the door propped open as well so anyone walking by could see what you're about. I am a frequent visitor to Nola. I am used to the nastiness of the bathrooms in the bars, but I do not expect this nastiness at restaurant. Service: We were the only table there. She would disappear. I had to ask her to take away all the dirty plates. . Summation: Don't bother. Way too many in and out joints on Bourbon selling some tasty pizza to bother with this place.

i've been here twice- once for late night food after a night on Frenchman, and on Christmas Eve with my family who was visiting (our Christmas Eve tradition is eating pizza). The place was almost entirely empty, but it was Christmas Eve, so that wasn't surprising. Our server was really friendly. We got cheesey garlic bread, a couple of pizzas, and a few beers. My parents were really happy with our decision to go there. The food and service were both great, although be aware of their policy of not splitting checks or taking separate payments. It wasn't a problem for us, but groups of random people should probably know that.
(5)Jared M.
Go here for lunch. The sandwiches are all superb and always get the pasta salad. I've never liked pasta salad and yet now I must have it.
(4)Amanda W.
I have a funny little story about why I love this place so much: a friend and I were starving one night and found Angeli on the interwebs, decided to give their delivery a go. We ordered two entrees and some tiramisu. They dropped off our orders and once we got inside we realized that they forgot our dessert (that we paid for already, otherwise we wouldn't have cared)! So my friend called the delivery guy's number, and though he seemed surprised he was very nice and agreed to go grab our tiramisu and bring it to us. That, my friends, is some bad a** customer service! Thanks, bike delivery guy! I came in here recently for my first eat-in experience and it didn't fail me. Yummy portobello peppery pasta, and my friend got a huuuge grilled chicken salad. The food isn't groundbreaking or anything, but it's yummy and filling enough to fuel a day in the French Quarter. I don't think that you could go wrong eating here!
(4)Shanna D.
Angeli, you have saved my drunken life more times then I care to admit! I usually stumble in during the wee hours of the morning. At that time, I'm hungry and desperately in need of large quanity of carbs enough to soak up the alcohol out of my system so I can drive home. Therefore, the cheezy bread sticks is always ordered first! The bread sticks are loaded with cheese and sprinkled with just a hint of garlic ....A-Maze-ing!!! I wish the marina sauce was better! My absolute favorite dish here is the Pasta Salad. It's a multi-color spiral pasta, mixed with Kalamata olives, tomatoes and tossed with a balsamic dressing. Yum! I love this place, for it's food, the ambiance, the eccentric paintings on the wall, and mostly for the people who wonder in and out of Angeli doors. Staff is always cool even at 3:00 am
(4)Mike H.
Me and my girlfriend had this pizza on the night out on the town after New Years and this place offered the best pizza hands down in New Orleans. I'm definitely coming back for more of it. The crust just melts in your mouth and the cheese taste so fresh. The waiters are nice too. Bomb.com !!
(5)James K.
You're going to like this place. It's got some pretty great art on the walls, they play great music (Vampire Weekend, TRS-80, Likki Li etc.) The pizza is good too and the beer, well it's cold Abita Amber (the local fav.) Go!
(4)erin J.
I recommend this place to anyone! My boyfriend and I arrived here late on a Thursday night with the help of my iYelp, and after going inside to make sure they were open (very dark and not highly populated) we took a seat and began debating over the menu. Okay, I know it's not traditional to rate a soda, but these sodas were great. Very sweet. Very refreshing. After quite a bit of consideration and telling the waiter we STILL weren't ready (which he was very cool about) I decided on a sausage calzone and my boyfriend got the Angeli special sandwich with pasta salad. The calzone was HUGE! I was a bit concerned it would try to eat me! But, the crust was cooked to perfection. Crusty on the outside and soft and slightly gooey on the inside. Cheese poured out of this thing! It even was cooked with a little sauce (which I'm only used to coming on the side) so I didn't need the side of sauce they provided. I wish I could have tasted more of the sausage but the cheese did overwhelm it a bit. The sausage was good though! My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his sandwich but he couldn't stop talking about the pasta salad. It had pieces of mushroom and roma tomatoes and was a little tart. We even got some of their tasty soda to go!
(4)Jeff C.
Late night Italian in the French Quarter with a decent menu? That works for me. Been here a couple times over the last few months and Angeli usually delivers a solid experience at a good price and has room for dinner (pre breakfast? Post-drinking meal... dreal?) for two or a table of 8.
(3)Lucy S.
I was already going to give this place a meh review for their uninspired take on spaghetti and meatballs...and then I went to the bathroom and was trying to choose between which of two revolting bathroom stalls to use...and all of a sudden a MOUSE runs by and dives behind the trash can. I screamed like a banshee from fright. No one came to see what was wrong with their customer screaming in the bathroom either, so that brings up another point against this place... You know what they say about mice. When you see one, it means there are dozens, hundreds, more, all of them using your food as a toilet. And back to those spaghetti and meatballs for a moment. I know that's something a five year old would order, but that doesn't mean you should execute the dish as if I haven't developed taste buds yet. This was a sad way to spend $11 in a city that's supposed to run laps around other American cities' cuisine. Cool art on the walls, though.
(1)Cinnamon G.
I live in the quarter and frequent Angeli for late night nibbles. I like its unassuming and down-to-earth nature. This isn't a place where there are scores of hipsters vying for scenesterdom. You won't find $12 for a single toasted ravioli drizzled with aioli and served on a bed of arugula here. If you want that experience, there are plenty of those places elsewhere. There's usually a mix of a little bit of everyone here, and you can feel comfortable just eating, being, enjoying conversation. Good food, generally good service, and very reasonably priced. Angeli is dark and dank in a good way, save the bathrooms. When I head to the bathrooms here, I almost feel like I'm about to check into one of those lunar-themed motel rooms with blue lights. I kind of like it, minus the waterbed. I haven't decided if this is intentional or not. The decor here is heroin chic high on folk art and cozy. I suppose that is partly why I keep finding my way back. I like to duck into this little place when the quarter isn't so busy and enjoy some of the best pasta salad ever. I'm not kidding, the pasta salad here is just about everything you want it to be and more. Get it, you won't regret it! I think you can get a giant heaping platter of it for $8 and I usually save half for lunch the next day! The hummus and pita are usually pretty tasty as well. The sammiches not so much, but their pizza is yum too! Once you taste the pasta salad, there might be some wrong turns on the menu, but not many. I would recommend it to just about anyone if you like to eat late at night in the quarter for a good price. Sometimes they play great music here too. It makes for a pleasant experience. Read this review and go!
(4)Jean-Paul V.
We are old acquaintances, are we not? I have known you for many years. You have nourished my palate, kept me kosher in inclimate weather, and visually distracted me with beautiful art and projected images. Your menu is spot on, and the service above bar for the FQ. Thank you Angeli! To many more years!
(4)Jason I.
Old School pizza/Sandwiches/salads. A great place to go if you are looking for good quality food that is affordable. They have two different types of bread appetizers. Order the one that is pizza-like with a marinade dipping sauce. It is the best tasting and very affordable. We were a party of five, and had Caesar salad, pizza, pasta salad, grill cheese sandwich and a meatball sandwich. I tasted everything, and everyone at the table gave the it meal an enthusiastic thumbs up (including me). Suggestion: if you order the grilled cheese, ask for a side of marinara for dipping. Service was just fine. We were there about 9:00 on a Friday night, and it was surprisingly slow. Food came out quick and the waitstaff was attentive. Total price for 5 people including one cocktail each and tip was $22.00.
(4)Lindsay A.
Angeli on Decatur is a good, solid Quarter restaurant with very reasonable prices. They have delicious pizzas, good hamburgers, and great pasta salad. This restaurant is a nice casual place to enjoy some good food after a day of trekking through the Quarter and open late enough to enjoy after some bar hopping. I will warn you though that the service is a bit off. You may find yourself standing in the doorway for a few minutes before someone acknowledges you. I suggest you just relax and take a seat. Grab a waiter the next time one passes by. Don't get all huffy. It's New Orleans and no one is in a hurry. Have a beer and enjoy the food.
(3)David W.
A great restaurant for late night eating in the Quarter. They have deliciously greasy food to coat the lining of your stomach with after an all night drinking session. I think I'm addicted to their pasta salad. Seriously good. The place is low-key and has a nice atmosphere with great big windows for people watching on lower decatur. Wait staff ranges from okay to great.... although that opinion is based on several years of eating here... I usually get grilled cheese which is served on a nice bread with spinach dressing. Yum. The garlic bread is also another favorite of mine. Cheap and delicious, just made sopping up alcohol. But, no matter what I get, I've never had a bad thing here.
(5)Julia B.
Food was good (3 stars) but the ambivalent service bordering on rude was very disappointing (0 stars) Not kid friendly / group friendly - don't bother going here if you have either!!! We chose this based on the recommendations of our hotel and Yelp for 3 families with 5 kids. The place was empty but for 3 other customers at 7pm on Thursday. Looking at the menu, I was taken aback by a full page of the menu dedicated to a dozen or so "no" statements / prohibitions in BOLD CAPS. I've never seen a restaurant do that - it was plain weird and felt very unwelcoming. The bartender seemed to be the only waiter and appeared annoyed to wait on us. He was distracted and wanting to get back to standing idle behind the bar - he got a drink order wrong and our appetizer order didn't even register for him. All but one dish came out and the last one took long enough I think he forgot it. At the end, I gave him the bill with 2 cards, suspecting the "no" statements didn't allow it but thinking splitting on two cards is just too easy. Sure enough, not allowed. It was just such a weird and totally unwelcoming experience.
(1)Jessica R.
This is my default restaurant when I'm hungry and I'm in/around the French Quarter. I love their food (though I always get the same thing, the spinach and artichoke sandwich), the service is attentive, and whenever I call to order delivery they're always really nice. I wish I had a better story about Angeli, but really, their sandwiches are awesome, the pizzas I've had are also great, and I eat there all the time. If you've ever been to Fellini's or Fresco Cafe (Mid-City and Uptown, respectively) and enjoyed it, then you'll definitely like Angeli. They're open late, they deliver, and I've never had to wait for a table. The food is good, inexpensive, and makes great leftovers. Win, win, win.
