Eric Hyatt bought the business on March 1 from the Laveo family, which has owned the restaurant since 1974 — when the late Angelo Laveo opened the doors.
Angelo’s is known for its cozy booths, its stained-glass windows and its old-school ravioli, fettucine, pizza and thick-style spaghetti drenched in a spicy red sauce.
