Aurelio’s Pizza

I hosted a baby shower here on 4÷23÷2016. I can’t say enough about how great the staff was! Linda was amazing!!! She couldn’t have made my experience better. She was so helpful! We were able to decorate (she even let us come in early). The food was great. I had a big sweets table & they even provided containers so everyone could take sweets home. The food came out at a perfect time and the entire staff was so friendly & helpful. They made us feel like family. I would absolutely have another party here!!! When the party was over Linda gave me a big hug! Thank you Linda for ther amazing job you did & taking care of my guests. Even the young men that worked there were friendly & so sweet. I hope the owners truely know how special their staff is. Again to Linda & the entire staff, Thank you!

We typically order the Super-​6 without mushrooms and it’s always hit or miss. The service is lackluster as they’ve gotten our order wrong on more than one occasion. However, it is better than most pizza places in Frankfort, but this location just can’t compare to the one in Homewood.

Aurelio’s has always been a favorite for their great pizza, but this review is for the excellent space, service and food for a banquet party we hosted. We had my son’s first birthday party there this past weekend and were so wow-​ed with the entire experience. Hosting a party of 70 is not easy, but Aurelio’s made it easy on us. Our guests were also thrilled with the great service and food. The staff (shout out to Amy) was so attentive and helped with so many things that kept the afternoon going smoothly. Highly recommend!

First let me say that Joe that owns this is one of the nicest most consistent people I have ever met.
His place is clean !!! beautiful, and the pizza is fantastic. The manager that has worked for him has been there for years and they have taught their staff to have excellent service,
keep drinks filled and the food coming out hot.
I have held many wedding rehearsals there (I am an officiant) and the couples have had their dinners there. What a great place to celebrate!
I also love their menu food. It is great to have consistently great food that is served hot!

Pizza is usually overcooked. Pepsi no coke. Desert tastes like it was frozen. Fried zucchini was just okay. Staff help is not very cheerful. Not a pleasant visit. Won’t be back.

Best Pizza Ever! Go on Mon. or Tues. night and treat yourself to the buffet. We are living in FL. now and can’t find pizza this good anywhere. Love this place!

Very family friendly place to eat. Great pizza and service. My kids love the self-​serve ice cream!

Always have been a fan of their pizza but recently I catered food for 50 and was not disappointed. Got their Italian beef, sausage and peppers, chicken, antipasta, potatoes, salad and more and was delicious. Ordering was easy and they showed up on time and set everything up.

Homewood location still my favorite but the sauce keeps Aurelio’s at four stars in my book. They know they have a great pizza so don’t expect too many perks or promotions.

We had the stuffed crust pizza, was very good and would recommend to everyone. We also had pick your 3 appetizer which was just ok. This location is very clean and has a nice atmosphere.

I almost always try to stick with the Homewood Aurelio’s. The Frankfort location is the one exception I make.
I think the pizza here tastes just like the original. The staff is really efficient here. Even when it’s busy I have been served relatively fast.
The dining room is nice and there’s an area for private parties. I have been to the pizza buffet one time and it was really good and I’m not generally a fan of anything buffet.
If you call in a pick up order they have a drive-​thru pick up window. Aurelio’s will always be one of my favorites and this location doesn’t disappoint.

My family and I order from here all the time. And I was raised on Crete Aurelios. So, I’ve always been a fan of Aurelios pizza. The Frankfort store is special to me because of its’ amazing customer service. I have only been disappointed by the customer service here once in 2 years. It happened last night. But after speaking to the manager, Adam, I don’t even remember why I was unhappy.(wink, wink) That’s the stuff that customer service is made of people. When something goes wrong they happily fix it. And when the owner (I think) found out that we were having Aurelios as our last «Hoorah!» before my 7 year old daughter got her tonsils out; he brought ice cream to the pick-​up window for her. Aurelios Frankfort makes us feel like we matter as a family. That feeling will always make this store a very special local gem for us.

Best Italian buffet I’ve been to. Great pizza, awesome chili, great Italian beef sandwhich & Italian sausages– the entire family loved it! Great quality food! We’ll be back for sure!

I’m a big fan of Aurelio’s pizza, particularly the one in Homewood. The Frankfort Aurelio’s has the benefit of having the «old ovens», so the pizza comes out nice and crispy, especially when you ask for it well done. It’s a little pricey, but you really can’t beat the taste.
The servers are always kind and courteous, and we always get prompt service, whether a party of two or ten. We typically order a salad as an appetizer; the cobb and antipasto salads are delicious. Their thick and thin crust pizzas are both excellent, but they can take up to 30 minutes to cook. The pizza always comes out hot and fresh, and reheats just as well at home. Some nights, we will get the deep dish cookie dessert, which is to die for.
Aurelio’s also has a great rewards program that sends frequent coupons for free dessert or appetizer as well as $ 10 cash rewards toward purchases. The program is free, which is even better.
My only complaint about Aurelio’s aside from the price would be the saltiness of the food. I’m not a big fan of salt to begin with, but every time I eat Aurelio’s, I am very very thirsty all night and into the next day. So, if you’re watching your sodium intake or aren’t a big fan of salty food, just be aware of that.

It’s a nice looking establishment but the pizza is greasy and just OK. Much better pizza in the area. I do enjoy their Spinach and Sausage Calzones. The Samiches are quality.

Our family has eaten here a couple of times recently and all were good. Kids are a big fan of the ice cream. There salads are very good. Still a little pricey for the region but worth it. Aurelios is a Frankfort landmark.

I remember my dad ordering from Aurelio’s down in Bourbonnais every time we wanted pizza.
As a kid, I hated it… I always wanted Domino’s or Little Caesar’s
Now as an adult… totally different ball game
The Girl and I went here last Monday for their dinner buffets that they have on Monday and Tuesday night
Which I think is a GREAT idea for a pizza joint, considering Mondays and Tuesday are pretty much DEAD for restaurants all around
So, anyway, we got the buffet, and went at it like a couple of pros: mountains of pizza each, with garlic bread, salad (to keep it healthy), and ice cream afterwards
All while we were making a cute little chunk baby giggle at us…
And, since I mentioned the ice cream… probably the BEST buffet style ice cream I’ve EVER had
I’ve never been to Golden Corral or anything, but this stuff made my eyes roll
Our waitress Annie was top notch, which is different, since most buffet waitresses/​waiters usually just care about getting your drinks filled…
And…that’s…it
But she was really on the ball
I’ve never been disappointed in Aurelio’s for as far back as I can remember (as a grown up, at least)…they have great pizza, with a nice sweet (but not too sweet) sauce
(Wait! I do remember that A PIECE of their sausage pizza tasted like a new pool liner… but that with the only minor blip)
And great complimenting foods as well
And they even keep their bathrooms really clean!!!

Aurelio’s is the barometer for all other pizza I eat. It is my absolute favorite. The sauce is just the right amount of sweet, the cheese is the perfect blend and the crust is always crispy. Perfection!
They also have great meatball sandwiches, antipasto salad, spinach calabrese and cheesy garlic bread.
When you go, you are supposed to tell ‘em Joe sent you. But it’s ok if you tell them I did.

Let’s face it. It’s hard to make a bad pizza. (Unless you live in Florida, in which case you’ll have a valid argument against that) But after many, many years of enjoying what I consider to be God’s perfect food, I can say that there are only a few pizzerias around that I’ve found to have a signature taste all their own. Aurelio’s IS such a place.
Now, as if this isn’t high praise enough, I can go one step further and give them extra credit for keeping that taste consistent with almost every one of their satellite locations. (I have had one disappointment, but after all, no one’s perfect!) It has to be difficult for an establishment to keep such tight control over a business that’s branched out into so many locations all over Chicagoland… and beyond! That has to be one major ingredient for their success.
However, my review here is for this newer Frankfort location and since I was only picking up a phone order recently, I can only review two things… the pizza (which I’d already suggested above as terrific), and the process. I say «process», because they actually have a pick-​up window for all the over the phone orders so you never even have to get out of your car when you arrive! I love it! In all my years of my Pizza Pick-​ups, I’ve always had to park my truck, walk to the back of the building by the kitchen (where it’s a thousand degrees), tell them my name, and then be directed to squeeze in between about six other people, all sitting on one long bench by the door. But no longer, here. With this new location, anyway, that’s all going to be a thing of the past…
God willing. Some people really need to shower more often.

My favorite pizza in the area! I remember going to the downtown Frankfort location when I was growing up until the fire took out the building.
Years later and my family still returns to eat their amazing pizza. This location is nice and really big. The décor is cool and they have some beautiful satined glass pieces hanging my the kitchen. The service was great and everyone was super friendly!
