My family have hosted parties at the Geneva restaurant for few years. The space is big enough. The pizzas are delicious and the staff do a great job. We love the pepperoni, sausage, veggie and cheese pizzas. We plan to go back soon. read more

This is the third and last time for us here. Every time we ask that our pizza be well done, easy on the cheese. And every time it comes out not well done and drenched in cheese. We give up. These people are incapable of following the simplest of requests. Ciao Aurelio's read more

Stopped in with family on a Friday night . We had out of town guests and since Aurelias has been around since the 59s,why not treat them to traditional Chicago style pizza. We were seated immediately. The server literally gave us no time to get situated before he was taking our drink order. I hate when a server does this. I ordered a bottled beer with a glass. The beer came but took 15 minutes to get a glass as he kept forgetting to bring it after asking 3x. Started with the Combo Appetizer Platter which was a Choose 3 items for 17.25. We chose onion rings,chicken tenders and Cheese sticks since the kids were going to eat most of the items anyway. Food portions were extremely small and overcooked. Not a fan! Overpriced. Also ordered a large half sausage/pepperoni pizza and a gluten free pizza. The pizza had little flavor and was over cooked. The ends of the crust would have broken a tooth! My wife ordered the gluten free pizza which was 4 square slices covered with cheese. Basically cheese bread. Again not worth it. The server never came by and asked how everything was or if we needed more napkins. When I paid the bill I asked for a paper receipt and he basically disappeared. With so many pizza places to choose from,I don't think I will be back to this location. read more

I'm surprised to see any negative reviews of Aurelio's. I dine in here one to two times per month. My book club has been meeting here for years and we always get pizza and appetizers. I have found that sometimes they get a little slow because they get so busy, but the servers here are really, really great and the bartenders are super personable and attentive. Great customer service! Aurelio's pizza is a little bit unique, the sauce is on the sweeter side and just amazing. They cook the crust so it's very crunchy, probably with some cornmeal. Yes, the cheese on top is partially yellow, but not in a weird way. Overall a delicious pizza! Additionally, we enjoy all of the traditional pizzeria appetizers and the pasta dishes are good as well. The salad is classic pizzeria salad, you know what I mean! Gluten-free crust is available available and my mom claims it's good. When I go with my husband, we sit at the bar and it's always a fun time. Their beers are icy cold! read more

Aurelio's Pizza - Pizza!! - Pizza Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

I don't understand the 3.2 average rating. Just my opinion, but I think it's the best pizza in the Tri-city area. Pizza prices seem a tad higher than at first glance, but they also put more cheese and toppings than most places, so you need fewer pieces to fill up. Great outdoor patio, very clean and husband and wife owners are both very nice people. read more

Great pizza and meatball sandwiches. Especially like the BBQ chicken pizza. Inside dining and patio. Quick service. read more

Attended a wedding rehearsal dinner this past weekend. Really missed good Chicago thin crust pizza and Aurelio's delivered that day. The staff was constantly checking to make sure we had enough food, drinks, plates, napkins, etc. Great job guys read more

I love their pizza. Our family's favorite. Decent beer selection. Salads / apps ok. Love having sit down pizzeria nearby.

This local pizza spot is better when the weather is warm and you can sit outside on the patio. Pizza has a sweet sauce and too much cheese. The service is a bit lacking while prices keep going higher. Kids enjoyed it but there are better local pizza restaurants out there for the money. read more

The ambience is nice- old school pizzeria and nice outdoor patio. It is kid friendly- Food is awful- rusty salads and boring, standard pizza crust like a frozen cardboard, canned (not fresh) mushrooms, appetizers still frozen in middle- also ordered a trio app and there were only THREE of one of the items (18.25$) waitress indifferent to the frozen items- just said okay, I will tell them to cook some more. Don't waste your money here. read more

Way too loud. Server got everything wrong at our table numerous times. Thats if he ever could even be found. Their Chix Parm sandwich is an embarrassment! One tiny breast on a soft burger bun. Really??? Sauce on pizza is good, but that's about it! read more

appetizers are clearly purchased frozen, not house made. On the pizza, sauce is very sour, tastes canned. Mushrooms come from a jar so they taste weird and are rubbery. Peppers are canned and taste like vinegar. I mentioned it is something I am not used to growing up in the Chicagoland area. I was told "they use what they use" by the server and the manager said they use what the main office tells them and it's been that way since day one. Service was not the best, but oh well. we were with a group of 30 people in one room, but all the tables were separate, it was awkward. Won't be back. read more

Born and raised on Aurelio's, it's great to have some wonderful locations like this one close to home. I love the fun events, great staff, and of course exceptional food at this location. This location just brings the fun and it keeps me coming back! read more

A favorite place to go in the summer/fall. Our order is a fiesta or two thin crust with sausage. We love the outdoor patio it's very cozy and has a pleasant vibe. Drink prices are typically reasonable. And the service is always excellent for either dine in or pick up. One of our go-to's for thin crust pizza. read more

Ordered from here a bunch but first time for an eat in - we sat in the bar - it was a Saturday night and was fairly open...not for long! Seems as though many of the parents of kids sports events come here after. We had excellent service and the antipasto salad with a small pep, mushroom, black olive and onion pizza - YUM!! So good and I really love the atmosphere here - we will be back very soon!! read more

This place is legendary. The classic thin crust is so fresh and THAT SAUCE!! Every time we visit the staff is so welcoming, and the owner may just come by and say hi. One of the top picks in the Fox Valley.. read more

Aurelio's continues to provide amazing food and atmosphere time and time again. We went with our family on the Christmas walk night. They were slammed! But they were more than accommodating, giving my daughters cups of their favorite, maraschino cherries! Once we were seated, our server was quick and attentive. We will continue to give this amazing restaurant our business and enjoy the fabulous pizza. read more

We have heard a lot about Aurelios from friends and was never able to try them out since we don't live nearby. We had the opportunity to place an order to go in order to support local businesses and I have to say the ordering and all was flawless! Since we are a ways a way we order two frozen / uncooked pizzas. One cheese and one garlic and spinach. When we receive them they were in nicely wrapped it had very clear instructions on the packaging and everything from temperature to how to cook the pizza. My god the garlic smelled amazing when cooking them.... and came out amazing coming out of the oven. I was not to sure what to expect to be honest but between the staff being super helpful and the ease of cooking them ... the most import part was the taste test. Mama Mia! These pizzas where excellent. I have to say the spinach garlic took 1st place for me. I replay appreciated the quality ingredients and the crust was perfect. Though not nearby ... we are are coming back for more. Extremely good. I can thank the aurelios team for going the extra miles .... the made these to order and nailed it! Highly recommended! read more

We love Aurelllo's pizza. But are we the only ones that think this location is cheap on the red sauce ? It never changes . We order a side of red sauce but that doesn't taste the same. Their slogan is "it's the sauce." I think they need to put more sauce ! read more

Pizza was great as always. The sauce is delicious too. One of our favorite spots when family is in town.

We had a retirement gathering middle of the work week, mid-afternoon for 25-30 people. We asked for a variety of pizza's soft drinks and water. If Individuals wanted something else to eat or drink they paid themselves. The waitstaff person we had did an excellent job. Kept the drinks flowing and the tables cleaned as needed. We set the event up with Tyler, he and the staff delivered what we asked for. I wish I knew the waitstaff person she had super customer service. If you need a spot for a gathering give Aurelio's in Geneva a try. Plus the cost was very reasonable. read more

One of my favorite Chicago thin crust pizzas. The fried ravioli appetizer is also a must try.

Tried to order online but had to have a login. There is no need for me to have an account to order a pizza. Tried to call but hung up on and then didn't answer. Forget it I'll order from somewhere else. read more

Ordered this medium thick crust pizza tonight and it came like this (middle pieces were the only ones that had a BIT more cheese). No offense but did I have to order more cheese for it? Also, picked it up right in the 30 min time frame and the cheese was hard. Not confident this was a newly cooked pizza. I don't recommend and it's not seasoned at all They did refund us at least! read more

Aurelio's Pizza - Sausage and pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

We get tomato, garlic, and spinach pizza. It is delicious, we come here often. Service and food very good.

Came here for dinner in the evening and got an outdoor seat. The seating in the back is very cozy and live music was nice and the pizzas we got were fantastic. Plenty of leftovers to bring home. There was a wait but they use the Yelp queue function so you can check your phone to see what place in line you are and how long is left to wait while you walk around the beautiful downtown area. Very convenient for when you come at a busy time. read more

Great Chicago style thick crust pizza. Great service from waiters and waitresses. The ambience is very good.

Excellent service--Charlie was great! Bruschetta was very good, pizza was as I expect from Aurelio's having grown up on the OG in Homewood--super pleasant experience! read more

The wait staff is extremely friendly and attentive. First off my husband growing up loved this place from his childhood memories of it, so we went for the nostalgia of his boyhood. The sauce is a much sweeter sauce than normal pizza sauce(if you love that kind of sauce this place is for you). To me however it tasted like a can of spaghetti-o's lacking the pasta was dumped on top of a pizza crust. I would never get a pizza from there again as sweet and flavorless isn't my cup of tea, but would give the pasta a try. read more

My husband and I ordered the medium extra cheese & meatballs pizza for lunch. The pizza was cooked well & we shared the appetizers of the mozzarella sticks & jalapeño poppers. Both appetizers were good. The medium was more then enough for us, we had left overs & got the rest boxed up. Service was great, friendly & attentive from start to finish. read more

Aurelio's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

We stopped in here on a busy day to get some dinner. The place was packed because everyone was there to watch the NCAA tournament games. We took a seat near the bar and were immediately greeted by a server. She brought out waters for us shortly after greeting us. We ordered a large family salad to start the meal. The salad was alright, which is a concerning start to the meal. Some of the lettuce seemed old and I wasn't a huge fan of the house dressing. I ended up ordering some of their ranch instead - which was very good. For dinner, my family ordered pizza with sausage, pepperoni, and mushrooms. I ended up ordering the large tortellini. The food came out about 30 minutes after we ordered it. My family enjoyed the pizza's crust, but they wished there was a little less sauce on it. The large tortellini came with a soup as well. The soup was quite bland, but after adding some cheese and salt to it, it had a great flavor. The large tortellini was really good. The sauce had a great flavor and was a huge portion. If I went back, I would order this alone. Overall I am not sure that I would go back, but the environment was quite nice. read more

This is one of our favorite pizza places in the area! We have had dine in experience, take out and delivery. The customer service here is efficient and the pizza is delicious! We are big fans of the thin crust and a medium is perfect for two hungry people or 4 moderately hungry individuals! They also have an app that is highly convenient and I even scored a $ 10 off coupon for my birthday! The restaurant it self is well designed. The restaurant is technically off of Route 38 so parking can be tricky...but Aurelio's has a back parking lot that takes you directly to a take out window that is simple to pop in and out of! They also have a really pretty outdoor patio that is wonderful to sit out on a summer night. Delivery is always on time and we never get inaccurate time frames when we do take out. read more

Ordered pizza for delivery tonight. Worst pizza I have ever had!! Was burnt and the yellow cheese on top was so bad!! Who uses yellow cheese on their pizza?? Never again!! Plus waited and hour and a half for delivery.! read more

I'm a member of a local fraternity in the area. For events they usually order pizza from this location, sometimes we dine in. I can honestly say to you as a lifelong pizza guru, having tried them from all over the city and the nation. This is by far the worst pizza location I've ever had in my entire life. From stuffed, deep dish, to thin. Sure I've tried them all because I was hungry and it was all that was offered to us at our events. Every time though, this place is consistently garbage. That's the only good thing about them. Dough is soggy, sauce lacks flavor, they use cheap cheese, and even yellow cheese In their pizza. I'm more of a La villa, Giordano, malnati, sometimes Rosati, sometimes Nancy guy. Hell I'll take a frozen pizza over this place any day. Also the service isn't very good at the dine in. read more

I always enjoyed Aurelio's, however hadn't been there in a while, and after last night's experience I won't be back. Cons: - The Calamari was obviously cheap, bagged frozen product. It was rubbery and pieces were way overcooked and grey. - The Fettuccine is the absolute worst I've ever had in my life. Tastes like someone bought the cheapest sauce they could find and added water to it. The chicken had zero flavor. I wouldn't feed this to my dog. - The BBQ Chicken pizza had always been a favorite of mine, however the chicken was dried out and tasted off. Pros: - The waitress was a very sweet and understanding about the Fettuccine Alfredo, as we took two bites and sent it back. The employees seem great - just need to fix the food. read more
