    Amazing spot! After reading the amazing reviews from Google we decided to check it out. The pasta was fantastic! We are from California and have been to Italy, so we can definitely say this pasta was delicious. We ordered the pesto pasta & bolognese pasta. The owner & staff were so efficient and professional, we were very well taken care of!

    We went looking for a ‘real’ Italian restaurant as we were craving good pasta after having been in Colombia for a week and a half. Just judging from the pictures of other ‘Italian’ restaurants in Getsemani you can tell that their food won’t taste anywhere close to how Italian food should taste. Angelina was the exception; a pasta lover can tell from the pictures. Very good food, very nice people and as authentic and good as a good Italian restaurant in Italy! 10/10 pastas and arancini.

    This place is absolutely amazing. We ordered the Arancini, Bolognese, and the Gnocchi with the cheese sauce. All of it was delicious. Probably some of the best Italian food I've had. Very fresh ingredients, the atmosphere was lovely. It has a rustic old feel, but so chic. The owner was great and took the time to talk to us. Our waitress was wonderful. We will absolutely be back before we head back home.

    Very nice and cozy place in Getsemani. We choose them due to the reviews and it’s the best Italian restaurant in Cartagena in my opinion. They offer originally Italian dishes, like in Rome or Florence. I recommend Norcina and Calabrese pasta options . Pizza fritta too !

    Absolutely a must visit if your traveling for quite some time and are longing for real good Italian food. We've been here twice, first time we ordered the lasagna and second time a pasta pesto and bolognese. All excellent. Great prices too. We could sit outside with our dog :)

    One of a kind Italian restaurant and the owner himself is from Naples. Great wine pairings . An amazing bread crisps loaf

    Really delicious and authentic Italian food. Made like how they make it in Italy - not like many of the other Italian spots in Cartagena that modify their recipes/menu. I didn’t take any photos as we came here after a day of travelling, and we were super hungry, so we scarfed it down! We had the amatricana and the lasagna della nonna. Both very good. Highly recommend!

    Fabulous little Italian restaurant in Getsemani. We absolutely loved everything! The eggplant parmesan was phenomenal, as were the Panzerotti, which are like mini calzones. We tried several different pasta plates as well, the consistency of the noodles were perfect. The owner stopped by the table to make sure everything was great, and explained how they use only the best ingredients including San Marzano tomatoes. I will definitely be returning to try their gnocchi and more…

    This place is a hidden gem in Getsemani. Its in a side street so people rarely walk by. Their Carbonara is my favorite. But also their desert is amazing. And the staff is super friendly and attentive!

    The best authentic Italian restaurant at Cartagena. If you love real Italian food this place is for you. The fresh made pasta is great. Everything is súper fresh and tasteful. Is like being transported to a small town in Italy. The service is amazing as well.

    Great food, great service. Food came out relatively quickly as well which was a bonus

    Wow ! Extreme delicious risotto and baby beef steak ! The staff and the owner are heart welcoming people, so you will feel there after few minutes like you are in your favourite restaurant.

    As an Italian, I can 100% guarantee you'll eat real authentic Italian food at Angelina. It's extremely hard to find the real taste of Italian cuisine abroad, but Angelina just knows how to do it. It was so good that I went twice during my 10 days in Cartagena. I tried pasta Calabrese with spicy sausage and Carbonara (the real carbonara, with just egg and no cream, and crunchy guanciale!) and the potatoes crocchette with salami were really good too. Also worth nothing that the staff is very attentive and kind. Apparently this restaurant is quite new, so I hope that it will get the attention ot deserves!

    My husband and I stumbled upon this while visiting Cartagena and it was WOW! We have both been to Italy and can confidently say this is some of the best Italian food we have had outside of Italy. My husband ordered the bolognese and I ordered the mushroom risotto. Both were absolutely fantastic, but the risotto was unbelievable. We also ordered a panzerotti to start. It was the perfect size before eating and lightly fried. All the dishes were the perfect amount and the quality is unbeatable. We didn’t feel disgustingly full or sluggish after. In addition, all their wine is all imported from Italy. I could not recommend this place anymore. This is an absolute must if you’re looking for a cozy atmosphere with phenomenal food. We’re so happy that we found Angelina’s.

    Exceptional quality. High level pasta made with love. The Ravioli with carne and carbonara have the highest Italian standards. We were here three evenings in a row. We met the chef. Her passion and authenticity is outstanding. More than happy to visit this place again

    The place has a very homey and comfortable vibe and the owner was very welcoming and took great care of me and my friends. I had the fettuccine with spicy shrimps and it was one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic pasta!

  • 5/5 Leon Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Love the pasta here! Very authentic, pasta is perfect and al dente. I’m still working my way through trying all of the dishes

  • 5/5 Marco P. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent food, needs more drink options. No white wine by the glass, one beer option, only lemonade for juice. Will still comeback for the food though.

  • 5/5 Joe S. 2 years ago on Google
    I definitely can recommend this restaurant. All their food and drinks are 100% made from scratch (including the pasta). The owner and the staff are so friendly and attentive. I thought my food was amazing and I will certainly return again if I have the chance. Definitely the best Italian restaurant I’ve visited in all of Colombia in the two years I’ve livee here.

  • 5/5 Alex 2 years ago on Google
    The food here was great, it's owned by an Italian guy called Alfonso so it's authentic Italian food. I had pesto pasta and my girlfriend had shrimp pasta, both were cooked to perfection. He recommended a bottle of wine for us which was also delicious. The whole experience was great and I would recommend to anyone who likes good Italian food.

😠 I’m disappointed in the service we have been having at crepes and waffles. Extremely slow, rude waitresses, they do not give you attention- plus there was a green worm in our food. Did not take it off our bill

👍 If the servers were only helpful and friendly I would give this restaurant five stars. The servers seem to have an attitude and an air of snootiness. Not acceptable. The food is well presented but it does take a while to get it. My Poblano crepe was quite acceptable. The mushroom crepe was super yum...
