We have several good Italian friends that are from Jersey, Brooklyn, and Staten Island. The one from Brooklyn even went to cooking school in Tuscany, and we all frequent Angelo's in Tavares. We all love it there. Wonderful apps, entrees, and the absolute best garlic bread I have ever had. The owner, who is from Italy, always walks through the dining room greeting diners, and checking to see if people are satisfied.
