There are pizzas. And then there are Angelo’s pizzas: plump, fragrant works of art, from the thick provolone topping all the way down to the rich, yeasty crust.

Salads, sandwiches, wings, a few pasta platters and a worthwhile beer list round out the menu at this good-looking spot.

The name says it all at this casual, colorful tavern, where a frosty brew and a half-pound burger will fill you up without emptying your wallet. Beyond the signature patties, served on slabs of garlic-parmesan bread, find a lineup of appropriately tempting bar noshes, including wings, ribs, fries and dogs.

Globetrotter, baker, and neighborhood booster, Niki Gillota offers a tempting array of edibles, including soups, sandwiches, and freshly made muffins, scones and pastries.
