Review Aurelio's Pizza - Chicago

Marcin Hajdul
Interesting experience for pizza lovers. If you are addicted to cheese it’s a place for you. If you came from Europe it’s worth to try stuffed pizza „Chicago style”. Small is more enough for two. We had medium and wasn’t able to eat half of it. Good quality. They also have good choice of local beers.

I dined in for dinner at this location with a friend, and I was NOT disappointed. LUIS, our waiter was amazing! He was on top of everything! Before we could ask for another drink, he was already bringing another, and he was the absolute most sweet and genuine individual. The food was fresh, the atmosphere was great, definitely a friendly staff, and most importantly I will be back to dine in again. Thank you Luis for such a great service experience.

This place is one of the best pizza places I've ever been. If you need gluten free, you HAVE to come here. Could not tell it was gluten free crust at all, and the pizza itself is criminally delicious. Staff was unparalleled and super friendly and helpful. We went twice during our trip and it was the only repeat we did for food.

Aurelio's Pizza is a pizzeria chain that has been in Chicago and other locations since 1959. It offers different types of pizza, pasta and sandwiches. My visit was great. The food was delicious, fast on the table and the prices were fair. The server, Katie, was extremely friendly and professional.

Easily my favorite pizza in the US. Easily. My family is from Argentina and my parents said, as we walked out, they searched for 25 years for a pizza as good as the ones back home. And it was here. The thin crust is perfect. Never had a bad experience.

Came here for dinner and only waited about 15 minutes on Memorial Day weekend. We got the toasted ravioli and BBQ boneless wings for the appetizers. The ravioli was very good and the boneless wings had plenty of sauce. The ranch was very good too. I got a Red Line beverage as well. It was phenomenal. Pizza was really good! Got the pepperoni and sausage stuffed crust. Had plenty of flavor and meat. Lots of cheese. A lot of the cheese did end up underneath the pizza while on the sheet but it was still good.

Excellent service and atmosphere. The pizza was hot and made pretty quickly. The crust is thin and very Crispy. The only reason I docked a star is because the sauce was a tad sweet and I missed the garlic saltiness usually found in pizza sauces. We visited at a less busy time and our apps were out in about 5 minutes! The fries were excellent and the toasted ravioli was incredible. Definitely recommend you give them a try!

First time here so husband and I stopped in with the kids ordered a few appetizers and for the main reason a sausage mushroom thin crust pizza and when I tell you everything was on point it was delicious. Service wasn't long on waiting out waitress was super nice and again the food was great I will surely be back with the kids and husband

I came to Chicago open minded and wanting to try their famous deep dish pizza. I first tried Giordano's stuffed pizza. I was in for a surprise. they use pie dough instead of real pizza dough. A real disappointment. I had to try another place... So I searched for the original place, where it all started: Uno! So instead of a stuffed pizza, they serve real deep dish pizza. Better overall, better toppings, but... Still that pie dough! I will never get why Chicagoans use pie dough instead of real pizza dough. I still had to try some other pizza. The thin crust Chicagoans love, so I went to Aurelio's. Ok, better. Service was great, even on a busy night. Thin crust pizza is served on a metal grill so the crust stays crispy, a nice touch. But... it's still that weird pie dough. Conclusion : Chicago pizza, wether it's stuffed, deep dish or thin crust, has nothing to do with real Italian pizza, but you still have to try it. Many loves it, it's just not for me.

It was pretty good. The pizza wasn't thin enough for my liking tho. My husband loved it. He also had Bosco bread for the first time. Heaven! Our server was very attentive.

We had thin crust pizza and wings. Delicious, quality food and great staff!

Only a three rating for atmosphere but only because it wasn't very crowded on the afternoon we went before the Dave Matthews concert. Donna the bartender was very good and got us our initial drinks quickly and while she was away the manager stepped in to make sure everything was okay. We ordered the 10-in sausage with mushrooms and it was very good hence we ate it all the sauce was a little sweet but so am I. Not many of these places left in Chicago but check this one out if you're in the downtown area and go there before you visit Trader Joe's which is kitty corner across the street. Oh and one more thing the draft beer was cold which is a plus check it out!

Food was really good... I finally found a place that actually gives extra cheese when I asked for it. Highly recommend.

This place is a hidden gem; great location on south Michigan Ave. The food is always hot and fresh and their pizza is one of the most unique thin crusts I’ve ever tasted. Their cheese combo is absolutely outstanding. Service was great and this place usually isn’t too busy. I highly recommend!

Great experience and amazing pizza. Had the toasted ravioli appetizer which also was terrific! Can’t wait to try again!!

I actually loved the pizza but the bread sticks were a disappointment. They were certainly fresh, hot & soft but had no flavor! I would recommend adding garlic salt, garlic butter or cheese to dip them in as an option. But it is a good place, nice atmosphere & yummy pizza!

This place is convenient and across the street from our condo ..service is always excellent .. and the food especially the anti pasta salad is amazing .. we’ve had their special sub sandwich which is amazing also . We always order the #22 pizza which is great!
Betty Garcia
Good food... service was a little off tho... guy forgot to place our chicken strips in as part of our order and then when they brought out the pizza they dropped a piece on the floor... the plus side tho they didn't charge me for the strips and took $2 off the pizza...

The pizza was excellent and the service as well. Usually I say the sauce makes the pizza but that combination of cheeses used just sets that muddafuqer off!!! I hadn't been to Aurelios since I was a lil boy and my dad used to bring me in. And the signature beers and selections are top notch. Me, my family and friends will definitely be back. Thanx for a great experience.

Many thanks to Aurelio's yesterday for their hospitality from Shelby West Middle in Kentucky! This was my first ever authentic Chicago pizza experience! Best pizza I have ever eaten!

Aurelio’s Pizza opened their doors to my stranded 7th Graders when their bus starting smoking and they had to be evacuated from the bus. Aurelio’s hosted 50 people with kindness, compassion, amazing food and a gracious heart! As principal of Shelby County West Middle School in Shelbyville, Kentucky, I cannot thank you enough. Thanks to Manager Joe and the rest of your phenomenal staff.

The food was amazing. Our pizza was was one of the best I've ever had!! Our service could have been better. But not bad enough to ruin the experience.

I had the pleasure of enjoying a lunch with my daughter's eighth grade field trip yesterday and this place was amazing ! The staff treated us like royalty ! If you want great tasting pizza and A wonderful dining experience then look no more -Aurelio's is the Best!

On a field trip to Chicago, our bus caught fire and we were in the freezing rain with 50 kids. We walked to Aurelio’s and they were incredibly helpful! Fed us delicious pizza, drinks, desserts, and even suckers for the kids and let us stay warm until we could get back on the road!

My husband, daughter (3 1/2) and I went to Aurelios yesterday for the first time while visiting the Shedd Aquarium. Our waitress was very nice and helpful when helping us pick what size pizza we need for how many we had. We had a great time here with our service and the food was AMAZING! As soon as we got back home to Osceola, IN we recommend to come here to our close friends and made this a spot we will eat at every time we are in the Chicago area! Thank you guys for such wonderful food! The kings very much approve. �

Fantastic pizza! Had the stuffed pepperoni and an ice cold Aurelio's Batch 59 draft...or 2...The staff was amazing...I will definitely be back!
Linda Suggs
I definitely would have enjoyed the pizza more, as I was enjoyed the music at the M. Bar, however when our pizza was delivered we were not given plates. I called and asked about this and was told that plates are not given unless requested. I find this to be absolutely absurd & ridiculous! I completely understand if it's a residence, however common sense and good customer service should dictate that plates are not an option, and should be offered, if delivery is to a bar. The bar doesn't serve food, so they don't have plates... They do however have cocktail napkins, which is what we had to use! No worries... NEVER AGAIN!!!�

I like stopping in for a pizza and to say hi to the awesome bartender Katie. They have great food & service
