Having heard Aurelio's commercials during Chicago Blackhawks games, but having never been to one, I finally went in! I happened to be passing by the pizzeria, saw it out the car window, and knew I had to take the chance to try it. Kathy, the bartender and server, was so very professional, polite, and friendly. And by luck, I happen to have the opportunity to meet Jay, the owner, and I must say every bit the same about him. Aurelio's Pizza was everything you'd expect of an old-school neighborhood, family-style pizzeria. The decor was warm wood tones, comfortable, pleasing, lots of red, and tons of Chicago Blackhawks and Chicago White Sox memorabilia. The dining room was spotlessly clean, as was the men's bathroom. I ordered a personal size cheese pizza, just something to satisfy my urge to taste this famous Pizzeria, and something to fit my very modest budget. A little over $7 fit the bill, and the pizza filled my belly! The handmade crust had the perfect imperfect shape, wonderful colors, delicious and natural and fresh taste. The crust had the perfect balance of crunchiness, chewiness, and weight. The sauce and cheese on top matched, wonderful colors, incredible texture and a memorable, delicious taste, and not one drop of excess grease. It was so beautiful when it arrived on my plate that I didn't even want to eat it, but I had to! What a great experience in a great lunch! I will be back! Aurelio's Pizzeria is easily visible from the road, has ample parking, excellent customer service, reasonable prices.

We went on a Friday night and were immediately seated. The restaurant was clean, the service was prompt and the food was decent. For some reason, the pizza didn't have the "typical" Aurelios taste though. This was my first time at the Mokena location, but the Homewood is much better. Even the Tinley Park location has the "typical" Aurelios taste though. Not sure how to describe this pizza...it wasn't bad, just not what I expected given the other locations.

Seventy minute wait for pickup when they said 25 minutes. It's awkward waiting in the tiny waiting area.

OPP is located in the old Durbin's Pizza - but WAY BETTER!!…read moreThe service is phenomenal, from the minute we stepped foot in the door. The owner Brad welcomed us with a hearty hello, like we'd been there every Friday night since opening. If you're a fan of the 80's the decor will be right up your alley and the same with the music; a nice Mix of 80's thru early 2000's. My husband ordered a New England IPA on special and described it as an imperial IPA that it will f you up with its 8.8 apv. I was very happy to hear the salads are made with romaine and not that spring mix everyone is using these days. So we started our meal the BLT salad. Very tasty and a nice light start to the meal. Next up was pizza. The thinnest of thin and crispy crust. The sauce was a very nice blend. Tomatoe sauce and herbs were not over powering and in my opinion not too sweet. A good balance of cheese, toppings and sauce. Not so much sauce that it oozes out with every bite. They were very careful with the toppings and keeping them on the respective halves. The menu also has sandwiches the sound delicious and I can't wait to come back and try some. I hope they stay in business for many years to come.

The pizza is good but it's not pizza that's memorable. The owners are extremely nice. The staff are wonderful. But it is just a pizza shop. My husband does enjoy this restaurant and we will continue to order here for him.

As loyal customers who live right around the corner, we sadly, will not be returning to Fox's on…read moreWolf. We took my mother in law there last night (6/12/26) for her birthday, as it is one of her favorite pizza places. Two people in our party of 8 ordered fountain soda, and both commented that they were very flat with little to no carbonation. After they each took a couple sips, we mentioned it to our waitress, who was very kind and apologetic. She offered to get them a different fountain beverage, but advised that it would be from the same machine as they have only have one fountain machine in the restaurant. As expected, these beverages were also flat. We explained to our waitress, who again, was very apologetic. When we received the bill, we were surprised to see that we were charged $9 ($4.50 per beverage) for beverages that were unsatisfactory. When we mentioned our disappointment to the waitress, she indicated that she would have to check with her boss to see if she could remove the charge. After a few minutes, our waitress came back and said that she could not remove the charge, per her boss. According to her "boss", nobody else complained about the fountain machine, so therefore she won't remove the charge. In other words, since nobody else complained, we must be lying. So much for "the customer is always right". It's not as if we ate our entire meals and then tried to send it back stating that the food was bad. Also, we had a party of 8 so our bill wasn't exactly small to where we were that concerned about the $9. At this point, it's about so much more than that. Fox's on Wolf clearly does not prioritize customer satisfaction. With so many great pizza options in the area, there's no reason to support a business that fails to value its customers. I would recommend taking your business elsewhere.

Calling in the order was easy and even though the restaurant was busy, our order of four pizzas was ready in 20-25 minutes. The pizzas were both bagged and boxed which was great for traveling. I tried the cheese pizza which was true tavern style, had a slightly sweet sauce, and great cheese blend. My family enjoyed the sausage pizza as the pieces were spread out evenly and not too large. We ordered (3) large pizzas and (1) medium which perfectly fed 8 adults and 3 kids with minimal leftovers. We will definitely order again!
