Very good service. They are closing at 10 pm but they let us stay longer until we were done! It was tasty. Definitely recommend and can wait to come back here read more

We tried both the homestyle thin crust pizza and pan pizza. Normally, we are not fans of thin crust (the homestyle) pizza, but figured we had to try it since that is their specialty. We are so glad we did! Because the cheese was perfectly gooey without being overwhelming paired with a delicious tomato sauce atop a complimentary crust with just the right amount of give to it. This may be the only thin crust pizza I would continue to get. The pan pizza was basically just the thin crust pizza with a lip on the perimeter and more cheese. This pizza was not nearly as good as the thin crust because if I'm going to eat a non-thin crust pizza, I want a more doughy crust and this just did not deliver. There was also too much cheese and it wasn't charred the same way the thin crust was. The inside is quaint with hats from all over everywhere. Service is also very kind and as quick as they can be with how busy it is. My only complaint is I wish they had a vegetable side dish that was fried, but it's a local pizza shop and perhaps not the right audience for this. read more

Angelo's Pizza - Homestyle pizza - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

A solid just ok experience for me. After attempting to go to 2 other packed DG restaurants, our group decided on Angelos. When deciding on our pizza, we went with a pan pizza. The person taking our order said it would be 35 to 40 minutes. However, it took over an hour. Also, they serve fountain soft drinks, yet the person offered me can soda. I think I would prefer to place an order to go. There was a group of parents with preschool age kids that were super loud and were letting the kids run all over. For a small space it was annoying. Pan pizza was decent. The order came out as requested. My recommendation would be to call in an order ahead of time. Dine in was just ok. read more

Came here the week before St Patrick's Day. It wasn't too crowded. Many restaurants had long wait times so we decided for some pizza! It's an easy walk here. We waited about 45 minutes for our pizza. It was basic, pepperoni, etc. It filled us up quickly. I think we left a piece behind. The medium was plenty for 3 avg people. read more

Two stars because of the pizza alone. Ordered pick up and service was fine, however when i got home it was like my side appetizers were drenched in water. Extremely soggy mushrooms, fries and onion rings. Tin foil....followed by styrofoam box....plus condensation = nasty soggy food. Will only be ordering pizza here from now on. Small request....dont pack side dishes in to-go boxes that produce condensation and ruin the food. read more

I've heard about this place through FB and Reddit pizza discussion forums. Just FYI, they do charge you 4% if you use a debit or credit card. I know it's weird especially since everything is digital these days. I placed a carry out order through the phone. I didn't experience any rudeness and this was on a Thursday night. I think there is only one guy answering phones and also serving customers in person. The place can be found in downtown Downers Grove, it's literally next to the free parking garage. The dining room is small but it has a good amount of seating (13-15 tables inside). When it's warmer they do have outside seating. I ordered a medium meat special (cheese, sausage, pepperoni, hamburger, and bacon) and cheesy garlic bread. Food was hot when I picked it up. Medium is a good size if you're sharing between 2 people. Pizza is tavern style and very crispy. So much flavor in each bite. The cheesy garlic bread was wonderfully done. They gave me two big pieces. Cheese doesn't easily fall off. Unfortunately, I'll have to take off a star due to the 4% charge for debit/credit use. read more

Honestly, I'm a little annoyed with myself for taking so long to come here! We came here for a casual dinner, and I was absolutely blown away by the customer service and the pride that the two owners have in their business. You order at the counter, then seat yourself for dine in and they bring out your order as it's ready. Both owners were out greeting customers, bussing dishes and making connections with folks throughout the time we were there. The owner introduced himself to us, and we could just tell how much he loves what he does. Of course, fantastic service was just the cherry on top. The thin crust pizza was absolutely fantastic, as was the Cesar salad. We were eying the Italian beef a guy got at the table next to us, so we might try that next time. There's a reason Angelo's has been around for so long, and I can't wait to go back! read more

It was pretty busy and the dining area isn't too big. I'm sure in the summer the outdoor area gives it enough room for people to dine in. I was able to get the last table. The chicken parmasean pasta was good. The noodles were cooked well and the chicken was moist. It came with garlic bread which was perfect with the pasta. The cheese pizza was well balanced. Sometimes I feel like the sauce at certain places can be too sweet. The owner (I think) came around and checked on everyone to see how the food was and thanked them for coming in. You could see flour in his apron and how hard he's working. I definitely will come back here. read more

We can't say enough great things about Angelo's Pizza in Downers Grove! When we were living in Downers Grove we always ordered from Angelo's. We did pick-up most of the time and occasionally had delivery which was always done in a timely fashion. After we moved out of Downers Grove, we continued coming to Angelos and enjoyed dining both indoors and their beautiful outdoor patio. Angelos is by far, the BEST pizza we have ever tasted and recommend it to everyone we know and bring our out of town guests to Angelos often. In addition to their wonderful pizza, they serve many other tasty items. We especially love the owners and all of the staff who are so helpful and caring. We would also like to mention that we have been happy customers since 1996 and will continue to do so! read more

Pizza & wings were amazing! I also loved the decor they had inside, very unique. The lady who helped us was very kind, even gave my nephew a free cookie(: would recommend!!!! read more

I've literally been trying to go here for months! Every time I call to order, they're closed. I've had them bookmarked for MANY years! But lately, I've had a hankering to try them out, but I can't find the correct hours on the place. They're not near me, so I was scared to just drop by. Today, I was determined! Lbs I placed my order by phone for pick up for a small sausage/mushroom. I requested my usual extra sauce and well done. Everything was executed perfectly. I sat right in my car to eat this piping hot baby. I could feel the heat walking to the car, and baby, was I excited! Lol. I ate about 10 slices *JUDGE YA MAMA NOT ME* LMAOOO The service was very friendly!!!!!! I told my hubby we will be going back and definitely dining in! read more

I've been meaning to try Angelo's since moving into the area and finally stopped in on a Saturday night. My wife and I sat outside on the patio while we enjoyed a pizza & salad. The salad was good but the pizza stole the show! It was the perfect thin crust cooked a little well done - delicious! The servers were also very friendly. We'd run back here for pizza! read more

Absolutely the most genuine and sincere woman running the restaurant. She clearly cares for her business and everyone that comes in. I will continue to support Angelo's because it's a spot that feels more like dinner and less like an in and out experience. read more

Ate a large cheese and sausage pizza at Angelo's this afternoon. It was the best pizza experience we have had in years. Friendly, clean, well-run and most of all, delicious. Hats off (pun) for the best run pizza restaurant ever! read more

I ordered multiple pizzas in advance. I asked them to be delivered by a certain time and they were. The delivery gentleman was nice. The pizza was hot and good upon delivery. My only issue is the person on the phone wrote down the wrong thing messing one of my pizzas up. She read my order back to me correctly but it was not communicated with the kitchen correctly. The owner wanted to give me a credit but I don't frequent the area enough so I requested a refund that I'm still waiting on. read more

The service was wonderful and the food amazing. The buffalo wings and pepperoni thin crust pizza 10/10. Definitely recommend

Hands down! The best thin, crispy pizza I've ever had. The staff is great and the owner always come out to greet and check in to see how the food is. Try any of their appetizers, can't go wrong. Relax in their out door seating. read more

Sadly, I had to start Pizza Quest 2025, since old age has hit me and my digestive system pretty hard and fast. Basically, I'm still looking for a good old-fashioned thin crust like the kind I had growing up in Cicero 65 years ago: Sausage with a hint of fennel, cheese browned to perfection along with a decently thin and crispy crust. Sauce, though, is my dealbreaker, as it must be not too sweet, acidic, concentrated, garlicky spicy hot, watery, or bitter; but balanced, tasty and flavorful, without overwhelming the rest of the pie. I had high hopes for Angelo's as it's been in business since my childhood, and came highly recommended in my FB pizza group. But my hopes were dashed with just one taste of their extremely bitter sauce. Sigh... Maybe you can't go home again! read more

First time here and will be the first of many! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. They welcomed us warmly as newcomers and set all the expectations for how long food would take. We ordered some breaded mushrooms and a thin crust Angelo's Special. All the food came out right when they said it would - fresh and hot as well. Mushrooms were crispy, flavorful & served with a generous side of ranch. The pizza has crispy cracker crust, tons of warm, gooey cheese plus ample toppings. Extremely good flavor, cooked just right and the perfect ratio of ingredients. This place hits the trifecta of great food, great service & unique ambiance. Worth going out of your way for! read more

Angelo's Pizza - Thin Crust Angelo's Special - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

I love to try different pizza joints, especially if they've been around since 1959! Happened to be near Downers Grove yesterday and was in need of some food, why not pizza? After a few minutes researching, Angelo's popped up. Solid reviews, good looking pie, and a very interesting pedigree. We are all in! Loved the vibe, and the self order format. The staff were friendly and attentive. After a relatively short period our pies were delivered to our table steaming hot. Very good. Light crust, ample cheese, and a very tasty sauce. The sausage was very good. I'm hoping and guessing that it is made in house. Wish I was a bit closer as this would be a go to pizza place for me. read more

Angelo's Pizza - Welcome - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

The best thin crust pizza in Downers Grove. Friendly and caring customer service. Nice family atmosphere too.

New to the area so trying various places to try to find the best pizza. My previous favorite pizza place was Villanova in Stickney but they are now geographically undesirable. Angelo's Pizza was fabulous beautiful crispy crust. Nice thick layer of cheese delicious sausage. Who is our first time there but won't be our last we got to pick up and take home. It was still piping hot by the time we got it home and we eat it down to the last slice will definitely be back. read more

Our original choice for pizza that night was a 2 hour wait. So we took a shot with Yelp and found this place 5 minutes away. The owner took our order and we were eating in 20 minutes. Absolutely floored by the cracker thin crust! Great flavors. Great service and nice ambiance! If you are in the area this is a must try place! read more

Angelo's Pizza - Cheese sausage mushroom pizza - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

We stopped in for lunch on the weekend and it wasn't busy at all. The woman working there was super friendly and sweet. We got breaded zucchini to start. They were definitely made fresh to order and came out piping hot. It was a good sized portion, the zucchini was not overcooked and the breading was crispy. We got a medium pizza with spinach, mushroom and sausage. The crust is cracker thin, they used fresh spinach and a lot of cheese. No complaints here. I'm still in midst of trying all the popular pizza shops in the area and it's hard to keep track now. Definitely good cracker thin pizza. read more

The real deal. Ask for Luigi. He will take excellent care of you. 5 star pizza

Had heard good things about their pizza. I wasn't blown away but was average at least. I requested pepperoni on top of cheese but was disappointed with the distribution of them. Others ordered the buffalo chicken wrap, his comment was it was huge and the toasted ravioli was decent. Wouldn't deliver to Lombard, even though the roads were clear, less than 5 miles away. read more

I'm originally from Chicago. My family as well as my husband's family are still there so we visit often. For years, when I came back I always wanted Lou Malnati's or my old fav Home Run Inn - but with HRI we can get the frozen ones in the SF Bay Area now (yay). Then, my sister introduced me to Angelo's and now I can't have anything else. It's the perfect thin crust pizza with the right amount of toppings and cut tavern style (they don't know what this is in the Bay). I eat the first few pieces in the car because I cannot wait to get home. Bravo Angelo's! read more

Been going here many years whenever just a little place pizza was always hot and fresh and delicious reasonable priced and I still go here I live in the area. I support family local businesses all the time. Try it you won't be disappointed. read more

Probably my favorite pizza in the area , just a little pricey if you get it delivered and pay with a card because they charge 4 percent which in my opinion is the price of doing business. If you don't want to deal with credit card fees then become cash only . That being said their pizza is so good and they cook it the way we ask . Well done, not burnt . Will try dine in soon hopefully. read more

Yes, the thin pizza is super crispy on the perimeter of the pizza! Unfortunately the center loses the crispness and it doesn't help when the pizza is cut up in squares instead of slices. The service is great if you dine-in, but know you order at the counter and your food is brought to you. Do NOT order appetizers if you dine-in unless you like eating everything all at once. If you're doing carryout or delivery, I guess it doesn't matter. The appetizers were nothing special and I ended up not even eating much of them as the pizza tasted better. There's nothing special about dining-in and will only order to go from now on. If you love thin pizza, order from Angelo's! read more

When we placed our order for Dine-in, we were told we could only order pizza for dine in and it would be an hour wait. The owner/manager made that announcement several times to the young lady working the counter. To be clear, I asked if we could order an app or salad and was told we couldn't. It was pizza-only for the dining room because they were short staffed. Problem was, as we waited for our pizza, other tables that came in after us, received appetizers and/or salads. I thought maybe something changed, so I went to the counter and asked again if we could order an appetizer. "No, sorry pizza-only for dine-in." Seemed like some people could get them and others couldn't. Not a good way to run your business. Pizza arrive within the 60 minutes like they estimated. The crust was super thin and crispy. The pizza tasted fine, but not worth the wait nor the frustration we felt. We won't be back. There are too many good pizza places around that deserve our business more. read more

Food/ Pizza crust thin baked well. Toppings good amount. Pizza overdone. Maybe because a Friday. Antipasti salad large $9 what a train wreck. Can olives, iceberg lettuce a few pepperoni and the pizza mozzarella cheese shredded. Really and a large with one small cup of dressing. Ugh. Toast ravioli- what frozen box did these come from. At least hot and cheesy. Decent sauce. Service. 5 stars. Great. Ambiance. Kids running around and parents not giving a shit. It was 630. read more

Incompetent service and horrible pizza! I ordered a pizza for delivery. When I called, I told the employee the toppings I wanted 5x!! An hour later, they delivered the wrong pizza . I called to complain and they said they are too busy to send another pizza or give me a refund and hung up. Unacceptable service and the pizza was awful. read more

Food was great loved their pizza and want to go back but won't deal with the parking and they don't deliver to my home we are just out of their territory and They only have street parking in downtown Downers Grove by a train station that's as busy as heck. They have a very small parking lot that I believe is only for family parking so I guess if they don't want to ensure their customers are taken care of then this customer will go elsewhere where parking is more readily accessible. read more

Amazing service, everyone on staff was extremely friendly. And the pizza is fantastic as well!

This review is long over due. Angelos is probably the most decent pizza in the area. It has a good seasoned sauce. I like the thin crust, just wish it was not so much like a cracker and more like crusty bread. read more

I have been going to angelos for 10 years at least. Great food. But recently they have a rude person named lou answering the phone. I ordered a few times recently and both times was talked to disrespectly. Rushes me off the phone and then when I call back because my order takes two hours to get to me I get hung up on by him. No customer database with the phone system. Every time I call they have to ask if they deliver to me? You've been delivering to me for years! Angelos you have to get it together. Dont know if they even care but You lost a customer today and a good review. Very disappointed with this place. Im in a service industry and I can't talk to my customers like that. read more

Absolutely top notch Chicago style thin crust. Even the center pieces remained crispy. Cheese had a little char, sauce was spiced perfectly. 9.5/10, near flawless, one of the best pizzas in the Chicagoland area. read more

Decent but will never come back. Better options plus the Principal of surcharge for a credit card in day and age is unacceptable.
