“The lasagna was a disappointment. While not bad, it tasted like something my parents would make at home - and they aren't even great chefs. I've had much better.”
H3
“This was an amazing dinner and a must try if you are able to get the reservation!”
H3
“Food badly under or over cooked depending on the dish and way over salted, other than the chrysanthemum salad. Indifferent inept service who rush people out so the next overbooked cover can take their place.”
H3
“Nothing I had was amazing. I found the food over seasoned. Everything seemed to have to much salt and breadcrumbs. Completely lacked subtlety or surprise.”
H3
“Current day, mid food at best made robotically, some undercooked some overcooked, way too much salt, grease with a side of garlic bread”
H3
“it’s a decent lasagna.”
H3
“But as they’ve gotten more popular and busy, things have started to fall off. A lot of the dishes are a bit too salty or heavy. The flat bread sometimes can come out in a pool of oil. The bbq calamari the same.”
H3
“I dunno why people try to dunk on Don Angie. The food is outta this world.”
H3
“Its still good, but def not worth all that hassle.”
H3
“Don Angie bad for groups. And I believe the most overrated restaurant in NYC. Small, cramped, hard to hear your tablemates and front of house is really pushy about getting you out the door cause they have so many reservations every night. Best thing they have is a small Caesar salad. Everything else is overwrought with cheese and butter and Pam cooking Spray to hide how mediocre the cooking is.”
H3
“I had a terrible experience at Don Angie about three years ago. The bartender was so beyond rude”
H3
“I was personally underwhelmed when I was there. We were a large group and basically tried the entire menu. Outside a couple standout pasta dishes, everything was oversalted and not worth it (including the lasagna).”
H3
“Overall, I’d say Don Angie’s food can be interesting in the fusion dishes, but it’s not inspiring. On the other hand, the “classic” dishes are heavy handed, show little nuance in taste, and are just off on the balance. Not worth the price or the huge wait.”
H3
“The most delicious if I can remember correctly was a candy-shaped pasta -- I think it was the buffalo milk caramelle.”
H3
“The food isn’t anything to write home about either but the service just locked out any kind of joy I would have felt about the food.”
H3
“Don angies tiramisu is fairly creative: the black cocoa powder addition, Marsala caramel and crisp all make it interesting”
H3
“Was great but not as good as theirs. It’s an absolutely bargain for how good it is”
H3
“I’m over the lasagna there. But I did enjoy the mussel pasta dish. Thought that was good.”
H3
“I did like it, was an original take on a lasagna. Did contain too much cheese for me, felt waaayyy too full after. Then again I didn't like the focaccia, was too greasy. Agree about the tiramisu, that one was really good.”
H3
“Definitely the Caramelle. The veal was good but a bit salt and fairly traditional while the caramelle was very unique. It was light and flavorful”
H3
“The Sourdough Pasta Cacciatore is one of my favorite dishes in the city.”
H3
“The chicory salad was a sleeper and huge hit. A must order IMO and the best thing we ate that night.”
H3
“I might be in the minority but the lasagna is sooo overrated to me. The pasta is thin and soggy, no crispy edges (the best part), everything is the same soft texture. Ratio of filling to pasta is all wrong.”
H3
“If you think you can handle another entree with it, the pork shoulder is pretty great.”
H3
“The food was good but the server I had was not at all accommodating or engaged”
H3
“Everything tasted so sweet to me? Like why was the sauce for the lasagne sweet, the sauce that came on the steak was sweet. Very strange.”
H3
“best menu items: salad, entree of choice and charred broccoli as side, black cocoa tiramisu - pastas aren’t exceptional”
H3
“And then Don Angie comes in with their dry Instagram lasagna, pastas and mains slathered in overpowering sauces with strange flavor combinations for the sake of novelty to cover up their lack of technique, and a tiramisu dessert that looks like poop”
H3
“Ofcourse we got the famous lasagna. I really liked it, despite being full of cheese and meat, it still tasted 'light'.”
H2
“I’m sorry to all I offend, but best item was dessert, service was pretty mediocre, we felt rushed out, and the reservation was through a connection aka impossible to get in”

“5. Lasagna & caramelle at Don Angie”
H2
“Start with the lasagna and chrysanthemum salad”
H2
“Lasagna and tiramisu were our favs!”
H2
“Can’t go wrong with either. I think Don Angie is a bit sceney-er and maybe skews younger”
H2
“lasagna, cheesy garlic bread, salad, sweet potatoes, and definitely the tiramisu”
H2
“lasagna”
H2
“Caramelle pasta. Its usually an off menu special if it's not listed. Japanese sweet potato side isn't as well known but is my must get when I go”
H2
“Don Angie is 3 lasagna rolls stacked in a trench coat next to an impossible to eat salad”
H2
“Super underrated but their chicken is a MUST. Never knew chicken could taste so good. It's complex and straightforward at the same time.”
H2
“there are better places to eat thank Don Angie. IMO, after months of trying and finally getting a resy, i found it to be mostly overrated. the only thing that was enjoyable (at least for me) was the chrysanthemum salad.”
H2
“I still talk about the salad as if don angie isn’t known for anything else.”
H2
“the Chrysanthemum Salad was the only thing i liked there.”
H2
“I had a great experience. Good and service was on point.”
H2
“Close runner up is Don Angie for their tiramisu.”
H2
“Thought lasagna was a bit too salty when I went but everything else was good- don't feel the need to go again.”
H2
“Don Angie - get in line at 3 before they open at 3:30”
H2
“Their Tiramasu is no exaggeration the best desert I have ever had hahaha, all the dishes were great though”
H2
“I love Don Angie - you have to be in the mood for a heavier meal”
