Angelica’s is the restaurant of choice for my family. It was nice to have brunch there today to enjoy good food and bottomless mimosas. We had one of our fave appetizers today, calamari, before enjoying the breakfast burrito, steak tacos, and taco salad. It was our first time having the tacos and taco salad. So delicious!

Good selection of beer. Overall good pub food. Nothing crazy. It started to get noisy when some of the local fans came in to watch a game. Good spot. Would return.

Every server was kind, helpful and accommodating . They took measures to meet our every need . When the wind kicked outdoors they asked if we wanted to move indoors or have a heater brought over. We didn’t even ask . We must have interacted with 6 people and each and every one of them was wonderful.
