I had never had Ange's pizza before although there are several in Columbus. This is for the new branch which just opened on Godown Rd on the northwest side.
My family and I saw in ad in the local money saver booklet. We were craving pizza and wanted something different so we decided to give it a try.
According to their website they have been making pizzas in the area since 1953. "The Angeletti family started offering delicious pizza to the Whitehall community back in the 50's and is still owned and managed by the Angeletti's!" What could be better than a long time local pizza place run by an Italian family that has been around for 60 years. How could we not want to try it?
We ordered the Ange's Combo (Pepperoni, Mushroom, Onion, Green Pepper & Sausage) and a Chef Salad (Lettuce, Ham, Salami, Tomato, Onion, Black Olives, Banana Peppers, Pizza Cheese, Pepperoni & Crackers).
The pizza was very good. It had a medium crust (not too thick, not too thin) and lots of toppings. I mean really generous with the toppings. The Italian sausage was really good as was the pepperoni. The onions and peppers were a touch crunchy which some people like and some people don't, but it worked for us. The sauce and the cheese may have gotten a little lost in the toppings, but both had good flavor. I think the next time I order, I will get just one or two toppings so I can focus on the cheese and sauce a little better.
Their chef salad was more of an Italian Chef Salad. It was plain chopped lettuce topped with chopped onions, tomatoes, black olives, and banana peppers. There was pepperoni slices and chopped salami and ham. Then it was covered in pizza cheese. It came with Captain's Wafers. We got it with their House Italian dressing. The salad reminded me of something I might have had in the 70s. (must have been the Captain's Wafers.) It was nostalgic and adequate. Nothing fancy. The dressing was old fashioned as well. Very simple. No seasonings with it. We added our own and it was fine.
I also want to add that that we were really happy with the customer service. The person who took our order over the phone was polite and answered our questions. Our delivery guy was very warm and friendly.
Bottom Line: We will definitely...
Read moreIM not so HO, Ange's is one of the GREAT pizza establishments in the Columbus area !!! The Angeletti family got their Columbus Pizza start in Whitehall in 1953, the same year I "got my start", and have grown over the years to the 6 Greater Columbus outlets we know today. Using stellar ingredients and a terrific thin crust, the pizzas and strombolis they turn out are TASTY and supremely consistent from visit to visit. They also offer subs, burgers, appetizers & wings, pasta dinners and salads. The staff is also excellent and cordial, so much so that I often wait until I get there to place my order so I can chat with them for a few minutes while I wait.
At the Godown Road location, there is a drive-thru carry-out at one end of the small strip mall in which they reside. At the other end, is a nice neighborhood pub with dart boards, where you can place an Ange's order which is delivered through a hole in the wall between the two businesses.
Best said, I am a fan of Ange's !! Give them a try. You might end up one,...

The Pies were amazing, but let me tell you about the service!!
WHITE GLOVE!! I am always a critic of service, because that is what keeps people coming back!
I was impressed by the transparency, yes it was a busy Friday night, and the fella that answered the phone said that it might be up to 90 minutes for a delivery order. That's acceptable IMO for a good pie, at least I think so. The delivery was Piping Hot, it was so spot on, it was absolutely above board in so many ways!! But the Customer Service was Brilliant!!
In case the Owners are reading this, it was on Friday November 6, 202 at 6:20 pm when I called in the delivery order. Freeman is the name, and the Fella that answered the phone deserves some Kuddos!!
Bravo Mate, Good On You!!
Will be back...
