It's ok for calzones. Their pizza is substandard IMO.

He has about a half dozen around town. Not near as good as when he first opened but not too bad. Better than a lot of places.

I used to frequent his shop in Old Hammond shopping center a couple of times a month. Not sure what happened when they expanded, but quality did suffer.
Not a bad pizza, but nothing to write home about anymore either.

There is one in Central. I'm scared to go in. Looks crappy. However, Fleur de lis looks likes absolute shite and the pizza was good (not great like all you cult people).

I don't know how good the pizza is but their salad menu is one of the best in BR.

Overpriced big time.

Damn near running up a 16 dollar tab ordering a salad at lunch. Not that great either.

I really liked their pizza, had it about 2 months ago. Thought it was better than the famed Fleur De Lis fwiw.

The inside is a lot nicer than you would think by looking at the outside. The food is ok, nothing special. The wife and I order takeout calzones from there every now and then. They're pretty good.

This was my first job when I was a kid. Always loved the food. Get a calzone. Or the white pizzas if they still have them.

I think DeAngelo's is getting by. People see it as a safe choice, but the buzz and hype from the past is long gone. Frankly, Louis should try a new concept before his name recognition is totally gone.

The one on Jefferson Highway is so secluded that I forget it's there. We used to do takeout regularly from the predecessor location at Hammond-Aire. Salads and calzones used to be very good. A recent visit to the Jefferson one for a sit-down dinner was disappointing. Instead of sticking to their core strengths, they've added a lot of upscale menu options and the consensus is that they don't execute any of those very well. They've got a liquor license but they desperately need a professional bartender.
