Our Story

Family owned and operated for more than twenty years, Angelina’s Italian Kitchen is an institution in Lake Havasu. Founded by the late Jerry Grippo and named after his Great Aunt from Avellino Italy, the restaurant has become a central place for locals and visitors alike. Today Angelina’s Italian Kitchen is run by Jerry’s daughter Christina Grippo, with head chef Richie Maltese. Momma Mary is often found at the restaurant reminding Christina, and Richie what to do. All of Angelina’s staff live under the immortal words of Jerry that “Our customer comes to Angelina’s for love of great Italian food and a warm smile.” 

Christina and Richie ensure every dish is prepared fresh every day. In the tradition of top restaurants worldwide, they start at sun up and make everything fresh with the finest ingredients. Each flavorful dish is prepared to order and is always to everyone’s liking. Enjoy classics like Lasagna, Veal Parmigiana, or Chicken Marsala, or step out with Cioppino and pasta, or Grilled Salmon with Spaghetti Squash! Want it a little spicy, less butter, or a full custom order, just ask. And, if what you want is not on the menu, just ask the server to have “Richie Make You Something” you will love.

Angelina’s Italian Kitchen is your place for family or intimate dining.  Call ahead for reservations.
