Angerami Sisters Discover Their Place at Halfmoon’s Courtside Grille

HALFMOON ​— The Angerami sisters, Angela and Roie,⁤ who are well-known for their roles at Civitello’s Italian pastry shop in Schenectady, have discovered⁣ a⁢ fresh opportunity at ⁤The Courtside Grille in Halfmoon.

“We’re accustomed to putting in 10-hour days. This ​opportunity seemed like a perfect‌ fit for us,” Roie‍ Angerami shared. ⁤The sisters have spent years managing the Schenectady shop, which temporarily⁢ closed for renovations earlier ​this ⁢year.

The Courtside Grille, which ‍launched in 2021,​ is nestled within⁣ the Impact Athletic Center in ‌Halfmoon. The menu⁤ features⁢ a variety of salads, sandwiches, wraps, and​ fried dishes. Angela⁣ and Roie‌ Angerami were brought on board to enhance the lunchtime⁣ business.

“Our goal was to establish a ‍thriving lunch‍ business,” Erin Huerter, co-owner⁣ of‍ Impact ‌with her ⁣son and NBA player Kevin Huerter, ‍and several others, explained. “We​ wanted to leverage ‌our​ location, surrounded by businesses and residential areas, to‌ attract customers, rather than them heading to the main part of Clifton Park.”

The expansive grill has⁢ the ambiance of a deli-meets-lounge, complete with ‌large TVs​ on one side and a‍ view of ‍the⁤ courts on the other. It serves lunch and dinner from Tuesday⁢ to Friday and during weekend⁣ tournaments. The Angeramis joined the Grille in mid-November, focusing primarily on the weekday lunch service.

“Initially, ⁣it was a ​bit challenging to ⁣find our way around, as we were still in the Civitello’s mindset. But now, we’ve got the ⁣hang of​ it,” Roie⁤ Angerami ‍said.

Behind ‍the scenes, the Angeramis are⁤ hard at work, preparing homemade bread and tomato pie.

“We’re also making‌ greens and ⁢beans and chicken soup,” ‍Roie Angerami added, mentioning that they plan to start making stuffed bread soon. Angela’s chicken salad and Roie’s eggplant sandwich, featuring breaded and​ fried eggplant with homemade sauce,⁢ have recently been added to the menu.

Even though they’ve only been at the Halfmoon venue for a short time,⁣ loyal customers from Schenectady have already paid them a visit. ‌One customer was moved to tears upon‌ seeing them.

“It’s been truly heartwarming to see people ⁤who have known​ them for years reconnect with them,” Huerter said.

Civitello’s, situated on North Jay ‍Street,​ was established by the sisters’ grandfather in 1921 and has ‍since‌ become a Schenectady staple. Angela and‍ Roie Angerami, ‍the ‍third generation⁢ to own ‌Civitello’s, started working there at a young age. In 2022, they ‌partnered with Mark Novak, ​who purchased the ⁤shop and the adjacent buildings, and has taken over ⁣all⁤ maintenance ‍responsibilities.

The shop⁣ is currently undergoing significant ​renovations and has ⁢been closed ⁢since‍ January.⁢ Novak initially planned to reopen‍ in the fall, but structural‌ issues have led to delays. The new target opening​ date is early January.

“The interior will remain the same, except for the ⁣addition of ⁢the original tin⁣ ceiling,” Novak said. “We discovered an old photo ‌from the 1920s or 1930s, showing ‍a black and ‌white tile floor and a tin ceiling.”

He mentioned that they’re refurbishing the counters and reupholstering the booths. Upon reopening, ⁣the menu will feature the familiar Italian pastries, pizza, Italian ice, and sandwiches, served⁤ by some of the ⁢original ‍staff members.

While Angela and‌ Roie Angerami miss their Civitello’s customers, they plan to continue their culinary⁢ journey at the Courtside Grille even after the North Jay Street shop reopens.

“We still want to‌ interact ⁤with our customers. I don’t miss ​the long hours, but in a way, I do,” Roie Angerami admitted, laughing.

The sisters show no signs of⁢ slowing down, although they’re⁤ adjusting to the shorter work ​hours.

“We’re adapting quite well,” Angela Angerami said.

The commute is also manageable,‌ as they ⁤recently ‍relocated to Mechanicville.

“We’ve found our groove here, and hopefully, we can grow further in ‌the future,” Roie Angerami said.

Devoted​ Civitello’s customers seeking‍ familiar faces can find the Angeramis serving lunch at The Courtside Grille ⁢from 11 ​a.m. to 2 p.m. ‌Tuesday​ through ‌Friday. It’s located at 390 ⁢Route 146. For more details, visit impactathleticsny.com.
