About Angelo's Family Pizza & Pasta

Angelo's Family Pizza & Pasta stands as a Waynesville favorite, where generous portions of Italian comfort food have kept local families returning for years. This welcoming pizza restaurant delivers exactly what you want in a neighborhood Italian spot - consistently good food, warm service, and value that makes you feel like you're getting your money's worth.

The menu centers on classic Italian-American dishes done right. Their traditional pizzas come with perfectly crispy crusts and generous toppings, while pasta portions are famously large enough to guarantee tomorrow's lunch.

It's the kind of place where you can show up in whatever you're wearing, bring the whole family, and know you'll leave with both your wallet and stomach satisfied.
