Angelena’s is located in the heart of downtown Pensacola and is the much-anticipated addition to the Merrill family’s Great Southern Restaurant Group. The modern Italian restaurant is the flagship tenant of Studer Properties’ upscale apartment complex and retail center.
Helmed by Food Network personality and nationally-renowned Chef James Briscione, Angelena’s is a chef-driven restaurant with rustic-yet-elegant plates and an Italian coastal vibe. At the front of the house, Jared Staples brings his inimitable Southern hospitality and grace to all guests. Wine Director, Brooke Parkhurst, curates a thoughtful Italian wine list, sourcing the best bottles from the edge of the Alps to the heel of the “Boot.”
