Angelina Cafe expanding, moving across Avenue A

[Circa 2009]

Well, finally some positive news about a neighborhood restaurant expanding and not closing... RyanAvenueA passes along word that Angelina Cafe on Avenue A near East Third Street will be moving across the street later in the summer to 37 Avenue A... the long-empty space that was previously home to the Two Boots Restaurant.

In recent weeks, workers put paper up on the front windows at 37. Work is expected to take another two months.

Angelina Cafe at its new address is on the June CB3/SLA docket.

    I still miss their Orchidia pizza. Of course, I still miss the Orchidia restaurant, the combination Polish-Italian joint gone these 30 years from 9th and 2nd. Some of the best pizza I ever ate...

    Much love and luck to Rafiq. Love the penne mozzarella and sauted baby spinach. Everybody loves and knows Rafiq. This is a real neighborhood place.

    @Gojira, the Orchidia was Hungarian and Italian, not Polish.
