The determination of the Petrone brothers is best measured in the way they have transformed this once dark and dated restaurant to an up-market trattoria on Miller Avenue. Now with two outdoor garden patios, a wood-burning pizza oven, a full service bar, a front terracotta dining room with view of the piazza and a rear dining area with a fireplace, D'Angelo Restaurant has all the trappings of comfort that make you feel immediately at ease.

The cooking can be simultaneously classic and creative, with deep-fried squid with tartar and marinara sauce teaming up with grilled asparagus wrapped with speck. Pasta courses cover an impressive range from the petite ear shaped orecchiette to hat shaped ravioli stuffed with butternut squash and pine nuts. Roasted organic Sonoma free range chicken makes an appearance in the form of novella in a rosemary white wine sauce.

D'Angelo also stays faithful to Italian wines by hosting monthly wine tastings paired with tasty appetizers.
