| Angelo’s Ristorante, 846 N 4th St, Coeur d’Alene, 765-2850 |
A Renaissance man with a wicked sense of humor, Chuck Lempesis takes his cuisine seriously. He’s a loyal, appreciative and longtime customer at Angelo’s Ristorante.
“I was fortunate to be one of their first customers and have had the pleasure of watching the restaurant succeed and grow,” he said.
Visiting Angelo’s with family, friends and business associates, the cozy Italian restaurant is also his first choice for entertaining out-of-town guests and business clients. “Without exception, they rave about the food, service and atmosphere,” according to Chuck. He describes owner Angelo Brunson as a world-class chef whose attentive supervision of the kitchen and specialty food preparation is the guarantee of quality and satisfaction. “His bride, Julie, adds the same personal touch in making every guest feel welcome and special,” he added.
Chuck’s favorite evening at Angelo’s begins with antipasto bruschetta, followed by world-class Caesar salad. For an entreè he often selects the perfectly seasoned and prepared pepper steak, though admits the vast choices of traditional Italian pasta and fresh seafood makes it a challenge to choose.
“Angelo’s wine list is a must accompaniment to a romantic dinner or as an ice-breaker to an otherwise stuffy business affair,” he said. “All of their wines are affordably priced and provide a good variety. My recent favorites are the Sangioveses.” And if he’s saved room for dessert he laughed about “falling victim to the Tiramisu.” Ever the connoisseur, Chuck claims many restaurants talk the Tiramisu talk but “Angelo’s walks the walk.”
Making his case, this lawyer claims everything about Angelo’s is special, but that their hallmark is the traditional preparation of truly organic cuisine.
“Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, the friendly wait staff and owners make you feel like you just came home for a home-cooked meal in Venice,” Chuck said. “The restaurant’s interior, designed and built by Angelo, creates a welcome and romantic atmosphere for any occasion.”
