Eating at Don Angie. One of the Best Italian Restaurants in NYC. One Michelin Star

I eat at and review the Michelin Starred Italian restaurant Don Angie, which is in Greenwich Village of New York City. Don Angie serves incredible pasta and is very popular, which makes getting a reservation a challenge. For dinner, I enjoy a variety of plates from pasta to tiramisu.

    A loner has to be alone. Takes one to know one. Really appreciate that you don’t spend twenty minutes talking to the camera - letting the dish die a slow, painful death in the process. Love your content.

    Honesty is so rare on KZread. You get: 1. The people who don't know what they are talking about. 2. The people who pretend everything is amazing (life ain't like that). 3. The people who nitpick to find everything negative possible. Experiences are a mix of positive and negative. Being honest about that is what people want to watch.

    I agree on the refreshing uniqueness of James’ reviews in an ocean of food review videos that all use the same tired and cliche style (ie, over-sell the enthusiasm with frenetic pacing). James is a true culinary adventure storyteller, with genuine and thoughtful commentary from Act 1 through 3. Superb production value as well, not just the visuals but his background music selections set the perfect backdrop - soothing and sophisticated. Exemplifying what a fine dining experience should be, even if the review is not that of an upscale restaurant, like this spot. Kudos, James. Big fan.

    Excellent review James. I have not had the pleasure of dining at Don Angie, but hope to do so after seeing your review. Years ago I live on Charles Street between W4th and Hudson and would frequent another place nearby called Piccolo Angolo on Jane and Hudson. Very fond memories. The owner's name was Renato, but he has passed away. I believe his son Peter and daughter Maria now run the restaurant. You might want to consider trying it in the future. Take care and keep up the great work.

    You need a shirt that tells everyone you eat for two. Getting a reservation for one is strange to begin with and is next to impossible. I thought about booking for two and saying my date bail on. 😂 Getting sympathy from the wait staff. By the way, I love your wristwatch collection.❤

    The sweet potatoes did look great! Solo diners are better catered for now than ever, so it's a disappointment when one holds out like this - for visitors to NYC like me, it just gets scratched off the list because there's too much risk of not getting a spot at the bar. I dropped Café China for that reason on my last visit in 2017, though I was happy with the alternatives I picked.

    Indeed, those potatoes were amazing! Yeah, I know what you mean regarding single diners. I definitely see a lot more people going out solo these days, but it's frustrating when you can't get a reservation and have to leave it partially to chance, especially if you're just visiting a city.
