From the Founder

"I came to New York in 1998 with my grandmother's recipes and not much else. I spent two decades in hospitality and real estate before I opened Angelina in 2020 and named it after my daughter. The brand grew because the food earns it, every single day. If you build it in your city the way we build it here, your guests will line up too." Judge our food, not my face. — Tony Park, Founder, Angelina Bakery
