Aurelio’s Pizza

Really love the pizza here, the management is great, clean, lil pricey but worth it. Pizzas are better than Cemenos who is the closest competitor, great lunch buffet!

We were pleasantly surprised how good the pizza and garlic bread with cheese was. The ingredients were so fresh, hot & trendously tasty. Nice décor with comfortable seating, tv’s and a totally nice atmosphere. Our waitress was very nice & attentive. I will be back!

Three dollars PER ravioli? Seriously, you have GOT to be joking me! I double checked with the waitress AND the manager! Nope… NINE dollars for three silly LITTLE ravioli’s. AND this is AFTER my daughter made a comment to the waitress that she has a good apatite and was HUNGRY. You would THINK that the waitress would have said something about how the «half» size was barely a nibble! Nope.
THEN we had to flag down another server to get HER to come back over so we could order a NORMAL size portion of something else to give my daughter for dinner. Not one inquiry back if we wanted anything else. So yes, I was HIGHLY disappointed by this and even though my spinach manicotti was excellent, I will never be back! Overpriced for what I could have gotten elsewhere with better service.

I ordered a pizza for delivery and was told it would be an hour to hour and fifteen minutes. I called an hour and a half later and was told it was on the way. Called at 2hrs to cancel but the delivery showed up minutes later anyway. The delivery guy was very apologetic unlike the person on the phone so we accepted the pizza anyway. The pizza was cold and tasteless. Most went to the garbage.

Good pizza but they always forget details about my orders. Amateurs. Weather it’s toppings or sides.

This pizza chain makes the most flavorful pizza around. The prices are average for the area. I usually get the fiesta 18″ pizza thin crust. One time i was feeling adventurous and tried the fiest 18″ thick crust. I will never order it again. It may be good for some people, but it was way to much dough and crust, the flavor was not as good as the thin. This is to my taste, and is nothing against this establishment. This is my familys favortie pizza. I have not tried dining in yet. I have also eaten at the addison branch, and the pizza is the same. But addison has more dessert options that really rock! Now, i do have one complaint. On every pizza box that is to go, has an advertisement for a payday loan place stapled right to the box. First off payday loans are for the type of people that shouldnt be spending money on take out food. But i feel that the attachment of this advertisement on the pizza is tacky, and cheap. I didnt pay for an advert, i paid for a pizza. And now you want me to throw this trash away. Do a favor and stop putting on ads for other businesses on the box.

Best pizza in town hands down!!! I love the lunch time pizza/​salad buffet!!! The secret sauce is awesome, I like the sweetness to it!!! Great service ever time too!!!

Pizza was good with fresh ingredients. Our server was prompt. Crust and marinara sauce for the cheese sticks were really tasty. We were driving through the area on our way from west coast to east and wanted to try a Chicago– style pizza. It wasn’t quite what I’d expected taste wise, but overall very good.

I love the pizza here, It is a little on the greasy side but the sauce is amazing. My favorite pizza place back in Joliet.

Really not what it used to be. We ordered the antipasto salad, which was good. Thick crust pizza was warm (not hot) and only took about 15 minutes to cook. I think they now precook the crust. When you place an order, they throw on the toppings and heat it. Doesn’t taste fresh or piping hot. Very disappointing.

Always a great place to get pizza, family goes there all of the time. Bad experience our last visit though on Valentine’s Day. We were the only ones left in the restaurant at 10, and they started vacuuming cleaning up when it did not close until 11. Then the manager just stood there starring at us waiting for us to leave. Mind they ClOSE at 11. It was a very rude uncomfortable experience that will change my views about the Joliet Aurelio’s.

We have many times eaten in the Homewood location, both original and right by the tracks as well as LaGrange location. We had relocated so stopped in Joliet with a visit to our kids planned afterwards. Server was attentive and we ordered thin large sausage and green pepper so we would have some to take home. Pizza was «doughy» more so in center and we both thought it didn’t taste like the original with not much sauce. So much for our looked forward to leftovers. We gave all leftovers to our kids and will not be returning.

This Aurelio’s is in a strip mall. Parking was easy. The server was attentive and nice. Wings were good. Pizza was ok although a little salty and they skimp on the ingredients as in one piece of sausage per piece of pizza. They have a decent selection of bottled beer. Restaurant could use a nice cleaning though. If you look at the light fixtures and blinds there’s lot of dust. I’d be curious as to how the kitchen looks! Prices are on par with similar pizza joints.

I’ve been here a few times. The service is always good, the pizza is on part with other Aurelio’s restaurants I’ve been too. Prices are a little high, but that’s the norm for Aurelio’s.

The pizza wasn’t any good I was disappointed, because years ago it use to be awesome. The antipasto salad was pretty good, and I’m told I should try the calzone/​stuffed thing, so maybe I’ll give it another chance. my first time back wasn’t so great though.

And ordering from this place for years. All of us sudden the carry out orders are getting messed up. Maybe the eat in is still good. Love their pizza even though it’s expensive.

WE found this on Unilocal while travelling through the Chicago area and went in based on other Unilocal reviews.
The Antipasta salad was very good. The pizza was not as good as the CHicago pizzas I remember.

Great pizza is how I can describe this place. I have been here a few times for lunch with a few others and we always order a pizza. They take our order and serve us a pizza all in time for an hour lunch break. There is something about the pizza that is so good it keeps me coming back. I have never tried anything else on the menu so I can not comment on that. They do offer a lunch buffet that does look good. The staff is friendly. I will be returning.

Best sauce EVER!!!

Its pretty much identical to Cemeno’s in every way. Good, but very salty and greasy. The cheese was all orange and had to get a new napkin every few slices.
Its a popular franchise in the area so you know that they’ll charge more than most places nearby but apparently, that hasn’t stopped many people to dine here as the parking lot is full on most nights. I don’t like the sneaky way they get people to spend more money on pizza. Every pizzeria offers 10″, 12,’‘14’’, 16″, 18″ sizes whereas Aurelio’s offers 13″, 15″, 18″ and the price goes $ 4 – 5 higher from the 15″ to the 18″ which will bother most since 16″ is the most common size that most order.
