The Northwood Villa had been around for a long, long time. Dating back to the prohibition era the building stood as a safe haven for alcohol and gambling, amongst other organized crime activity. Ran by the purple gang its location was perfect for smuggling whiskey from Canada, into Detroit, and spreading it through Michigan and down into Ohio. Even after the speakeasy days the Villa continued to thrive as a supperclub for many decades until it finally closed in the early 90’s.
Angelo Tsipis purchased the building in 2000 to reopen and continue the legacy of the truly iconic building. Naming it Angelo’s Northwood Villa as to not stray away from the historical past of the building, he also chose to keep the dated, vintage décor of the building. This not only held up the history of the building but also created at atmosphere that takes you back in time as soon as you step foot in the dining room.
At Angelo’s Northwood Villa we thrive on the quality of food, customer service, and satisfaction. We always use fresh ingredients, make all of our sauces in house, and cut all of our meats in house. The quality we bring to the table is what makes all the difference in providing an excellent meal and experience for all of our customers.
