Angelo’s Steak Pit

Definitely not worth it. Just an overrated place that’s been around for awhile & I gets people are attracted to the «giant bull» in the parking lot Ha Ha. The cows are corn fed & the sides aren’t great at all. I expect more for all the money you have to pay to eat. The quality & quantity or both missing. I’d rather eat at Wendy’s:-D

I’m sorry I don’t get it! We love steak and bake potato and this is not it. First off we walk in and the mildew smell just filled the room, I’m assuming from the carpet but I don’t know. We were seated in the bar area so I don’t know if that made a difference or not. We look at the menus and I’m shocked that the kids menus prices are no less than 9.99 for a cheese burger and fries. Granted the burger was huge but my child wasted half of it so I’d rather save the 5 $ if ya know what I mean. There was 5 of us my parents ordered steaks and said they were flavorless just salty. I ordered the shish kabob well done and when I got it it was pink as pink could be. They took it back to throw it back on the grill lol. When I finally got mine everyone was done eating and waiting on me. Then the bill comes and it’s 118 $. Needless to say I just don’t get the hype!

Food was okay. Steak was cooked at the correct temperature, but the taste of the smoke is all I could taste. At the beginning of the meal the waiter accidentally spilled my entire drink on me. I kept my cool because I understand that accidents happen, and I would want someone to treat me in a nice manner if I spilled something on them. The manager visited the table and offered me a free dessert before my meal came out. I thought this was odd and turned it down. My wife actually left the meal to get me a new pair of clothes. Nothing was said or done after that. The waiter said the manager checked on me and that was all. Aside from the spill, the service was actually okay. If you like smokey steaks this is the place for you. It was not what reviews have made it out to be.

First time to eat here. I got Filet Mignon, hubby got Porterhouse. Both were excellent! I loved the garlic toast that comes with the meal. Staff was very friendly. Kristian was our waiter and he took excellent care of us. Will definitely come back when we are in town!

I’ve been going to Angelo’s and taking a picture next to the bull outside since I was a tiny baby. Angelo’s is always a spot we attend everyime we visit. The décor may not be up to par for some expecting an upscale steak house, but that’s because it’s not an upscale establishment. The atmosphere is very country, with an old country store to shop in, a bit dimly lit, yet the food here is sub par. You cannot go wrong with any steak you order on the menu though. This tends to be a family tradition to go to Angelo’s at least one time a year.
I’m 27 and I can’t count on two hands how many times I have been here. You almost have to arrive here right when it opens to make sure you don’t have a long wait, our family starts planning at about 1 – 2 pm for an evening dinner. From the homemade dressings to the warm bread, the crab claw appetizer, any steak on the menu, and all of the side items are worth writing home for.
Without fail your steak always comes out as ordered, which tends to be a problem at other restaurants.
The only reason it gets 3 stars is because the atmosphere can get out of hand. It is still regarded as a nicer place to dine and people tend to show up in beach gear. The servers also tend to get annoyed with travelers, especially those who are intoxicated or come in rather large parties which tend to be about 10 – 20 per table on any given summer night being that this is a staple establishment to attend every time you go to the beach. From what I remember, Angelo’s has a seasonal calendar, they usually close in October and do not re-​open until mid Spring pending the regular beach-​goer season which makes it a hot commodity upon the arrival of Spring Breakers.

Went to last night.
Ordered t– bones medium rare. Very good. Great service.
Décor is same since open very old.
I don’t know why some Unilocaler leave 1 star but everytime we eat here great steak and service.

The service was great. This is the best thing about the place. We ordered steak and shrimp and fried grouper. The steak was nothing special. We could have received the same quality steak at Ponderosa. The grouper had so much breading I thought I was at Captain D’s. As stated earlier, the service was great. I cannot see us going back here again.

Don’t eat here. Seriously.
The place is stuck in 1975 in an old/​tired location with aptly used 70s era décor. It reminds me of a tourist trap and it is, it smells bad when you walk in (my intuition was right), and the food is well below average. None of the 5 steaks ordered at our table were cooked correctly and my «salad» was soaked in water and then soaked some more in dressing — so was everyone else’s. Thought about tipping by leaving a salad spinner or a dish towel.
And I actually heard a waitress tell someone «put lemon on your steak to bring out the seasoning» — I think the only thing that would compare to the food quality would be eating fish sticks and beef liver in the condo for a nice surf-​n-​turf. Lemon on a steak? How about just a good steak that doesn’t need citrus help?
Bottom line: bad food, actually pretty good service, very bad time-​warped décor, and way way way over priced for a sirloin which is their specialty according to the menu.

Well, I finally decided to try out this place on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Place seemed to be packed for an end of season.
I was promptly greeted an seated, tho the booth were somewhat uncomfortable.
I hated the hickory, smoked smell that seemed to enwrap the whole place. Ended up leaving with a mild headache.
Service was rather slow.
Ordered my New York strip steak well done, had to return it because had pink in it when it was brought out.
Salad did not seem fresh.
Had to wait long for my water to be refilled, which I’ve found particularly annoying.
Wasn’t impressed with the quality of service or food, so I think it was a one time thing for me.

Since moving to the area 10 months ago, the non-​stop commercials were enticing, so we decided to stop in. We arrived 15 minutes after opening and the parking lot was very full, but didn’t have a wait. The décor is dark, drab cowboyish, matching Big Gus the Steer at front of the building. Our waitress Brooke, didn’t keep us waiting long, very pleasant, but my jokester husband appeared to relax her more, and she bantered back just as good as she got.
We’ve had better ribeyes, but these were tasty, cooked as requested. The salads and steamed veggies were standard looking and tasting, nothing to scream about.
A little overpriced, but to be expected for touristy Panama City Beach.
One restaurant that’s marked off our bucket list; we’ll probably come back again.

Great steak flavor, friendly family environment. Most tender ribeye steak you could enjoy.

I’ve been here 3 times every time I’ve been to pcb with my now in-​laws. It’s their favorite place to go for a nice dinner on vacation. Their steaks are awesome and I have always bought their seasoning for $ 10 and got an extra for my parents which they now request every time I go and they’ve never even eaten there. A must eat in PCB

The only thing good about this restaurant is the flavor of their steak. You can’t beat a hickory flavored steak. The downfall to the steak was both mine and my husband’s were overdone. Considering we paid 27 and 23 for our meals they shouldve been cooked to our Temps we asked for. I had filet and shrimp, the shrimp was fresh but it tasted like captain d’s breading. The salad was mostly just lettuce and the ranch was not good. There are not many apps that sounded good. We ordered the angel pie which is an apple pie with cheese sugar and cinnamon on top. It would’ve been good if it was fresh. It tasted like it was frozen then heated in the microwave and not even til it was hot. The service was mediocre at best. Will not be back.

It’s hard to miss Angelo’s because of the humongous steer in front of the restaurant. You better get there early or expect a long wait. The restaurant is huge and decorated with western and ranch attire. Also, be prepared to spend some money too. I have ate at Angelo’s several times. It is a steakhouse with several different cuts. This time, I had a rib-​eye cooked medium and weighed 13 oz. The steak was very good and has its own special seasoning to it. Angelo’s also has its own Vidalia Onion Steak Sauce which is amazing! Garlic toast is served with each meal and even though it looks like it had been toasted to death… it is surprisingly barely crispy and buttery. Each meal comes with baked potato, fries, green beans or vegetables and salad. I recommend the baked potato over the fries. As much as you pay at Angelo’s, it seems like they would do more to the salad besides lettuce, tomato, and cucumber. The salad dressings seem to be homemade especially the house dressing which is a Greek vinegarette… very tangy and worth it. As a sweet tea lover, I have to warn you to avoid sweet tea here at all cost. It tastes like instant tea: (. If you are looking for a good steak and potato, Angelo’s is a great place for that. I like it and it’s definitely worth going to… but you might end up being happier with Outback or Longhorn… especially with the cost and variety.

Very flavorful steaks. I had the ladies sirloin and only one end was over cooked. The rest was a perfect medium. Basic baked potato with butter cheese and bacon and a few chives I think.
Salad was simple but fresh. Waiter was great. Get here early in the afternoon bc this place was packed!

If you like eating bad, cheap cuts of steak using silverware that feels plastic — you’ll love this place.
The quality of the cut of meat on my ribeye was poor — I would have complained in a grocery store, let alone a steakhouse.
The «silverware» MUST have been the original since day one — that’s a genuine observation, not a harsh criticism.
The amount they charge for such poor food is really annoying.
The décor is as outdated as the silverware — they must be making some profits, so why not reinvest back into the business?
I would not go back, but I might recommend this place to people I dislike.

The smell that you smell when you are outside is what your steak will taste like. If you don’t like that, then don’t go. Was very disappointed with our visit. The menu is basic with nothing special but the price was extreme. Will NEVER go back!

Eating at Angelos is an annual event. This was my 20^th year in a row eating here. We eat here every year for my aunts birthday with a large group.
FOOD– I get the filet every year and this year was no different. Tons of flavor and cooked perfect. Several members in our group got the hamburger steak and was huge.
Staff– everyone was friendly, however we were seated at 8:00 and at 8:30 will still didn’t have our drinks. By the time the first meal reached the table it was between 9:30 — 9:45. Several meals were a little cold. But 1 bad experience in the last 20 years is ok.
We will be back!!!

This was my first visit and with a party of 5. I was expecting to have to wait but we didn’t and it was during prime time.
My favorite was the dirty martini. It was perfect!
The steak was cooked perfect and extremely tender. I’m not a fan of «smoky» meat but I will say this was pretty good.
We had a blast and the waitress was great. It was a little pricy but worth it.

Been here two different years now and the wait is outrageous and the place is so old looking, but it is worth it! The steak is out of this world, people. I’m not even exaggerating. The potatoes are great and the salads too, but not as memorable as the steaks. The key is to go early for dinner so the wait isn’t as bad. You must try it though if you never have. I craved it for a year before we went back recently.
