Aurelio's Pizza in Plainfield is my absolute favorite pizza around -- hands down, no contest. That sauce, though! I swear they must have a team of Italian grandmothers in the back just whispering love spells into the tomato pot. We usually order out (because stretchy pants are life), but every so often we dine in, and it's always a treat. The interior is cozy and welcoming -- like a pizza-themed hug -- and the staff is always friendly and attentive. It's also surprisingly spacious, so you can totally host a gathering here without bumping elbows over the breadsticks. Today's feast was a masterpiece: Barbecue wings -- tasty and sticky in all the right ways. Mozzarella sticks -- pure cheesy glory, like a mozzarella mic drop. Antipasto salad -- packed with more olives and meats than I knew what to do with (and I did my best). And then...the 18-inch sausage pizza. This thing could double as a life raft. It feeds our family for days and is absolutely delectable. Bonus points for having a drive-through -- because sometimes you just need to pick up your pizza without changing out of pajama pants. In conclusion: Aurelio's is what happens when love, cheese, and tomato sauce decide to throw a party. read more

Our party of 7 dined in on a Saturday night and enjoyed a series of apps and pizzas to celebrate a birthday. Food was well timed and delicious, drinks were always full and the staff was super friendly. Highly recommend trying a pepperoni, pineapple and jalapeño thin crust. (Knocked it out of the park - and way better than the two other local spots we've tried!) read more

I love Aurelio's Pizza. It was made exactly as ordered and cooked perfectly. Thanks for bringing back some wonderful childhood memories.

Great place with amazing food. Its usually good service aswell, typically very nice and accommodating. One server in particular, Theresa, was rude the entire time, making my table do the math to figure out how much our food costed, when she is the server. She also told us we can't get a pizza which was literally on the menu because the kitchen doesn't like making it??? She gave us horrible service then complained when we didn't tip. Why would I tip after being treated like that? Overall a great place if you get any other server. Shes the only one, quite stuck-up. read more

Excellent thin crust pizza perfectly cooked. Speedy, friendly service from Brittney. Highly recommend.

Best tasting pizza in the Chicago suburbs! It really is the sauce! This Aurelio's in Plainfield tastes exactly the same as the original location in Homewood nearby where I grew up, so it's tastes like my childhood. The pizza is always excellent & the service great whether you dine in or carry out. Go! Go now & get some Aurelio's pizza! read more

Great food and service! Our Aurelio's closed in Naperville so we made the drive to Plainfield. So glad we did. The place is super cute, and the service was terrific. Had the Caesar Salad and a GF pizza. Both were excellent. Lots of toppings on the pizza and that great sauce! Crust was so good that I could be convinced it wasn't even gluten free. Will definitely be back. read more

We hosted our son's first birthday here and had a great experience! The server was very flexible and attentive and the pizza was good. The only downside was the ice cream machine was not working which we were not aware of despite it being included in a new party package. However, they did supply a dessert pizza. read more

The Aurellios Pizza in Plainfield is an excellent choice for dinner. We ordered Large Cheese Pizza, Chicken Alfredo pasta, buffalo wings, mozzarella sticks, Spinach Salad and Bosco sticks. Pizza was fantastic as always and enjoyed all the appetizers. They're also flexible with customizing orders, you can get different toppings on each quarter of your pizza. Atmosphere was nice and restaurant was clean. Our waitress Amy was very attentive and provided great service. Mike, the franchisee is usually on premise to help and ensure things are running smoothly. They also have a lunch buffet on Wednesday & Fridays. Thank you read more

Great pizza and quick service. Definitely worth checking out for a family pizza night.

I absolutely love Aurelio's pizza , their sauce is the best! It's sweet and perfect. I ordered a medium 13-in, sausage, pepperoni, green pepper thin crust pizza for ~ 28 bucks for me, my bf and toddler. Half the pizza is gone already and bf hasn't really touched it yet but I'm sure it'll be enough! We're big eaters and I could go H.A.M.on some aurelios. Baby girl LOVED it and devoured it after turning down some pretty delicious cheese tortellini pesto pasta.. (she's 14m) you won't regret this pizza, jus sayin.. read more

The worst pizza I've ever had. Ordered extra cheese and it had barley any cheese at all. So much sausage it was disgusting! It's always hit or miss with this location but never this bad. Called manager and they wanted us to return it! Never again read more

Was here two weeks ago, and that visit was much better. This time, they didn't have provolone cheese for my wife's italian beef like last time, plus the beef sandwich didn't taste as good. Stuffed pizza was delivered instead of the thick crust pizza I ordered. It tasted good, but not what I ordered. My diet drink had no fizz. Lastly, the ice milk machine stopped working. They weren't too busy for a Saturday night. I may still go back, but be more wary. read more

The Pizza buffet was delicious and they had meatball and wings not just pizza. Food family and friends. Love it

Got a pizza with alfredo sauce, grilled chicken, and bacon. It's great on thin crust, but I tried the thick crust this time and it was also so good! Definitely recommend it for any fellow tomato haters read more

I took my 2 toddlers & we met up with our friends for the buffet dinner with Santa tonight 12/6/22. What a fantastic experience!! Santa was so kind and came to our table several times. The buffet food was plenty & hot. My kids loved the pasta choices, tater tots, corn dogs, ice cream & brownies. I loved their sausage pizza & salad bar. The price was reasonable & I can't say enough about how fantastic Santa was. Great job Aurelios!! read more

Always great food and service!! Pizza is always fresh and the beef sandwiches are best in the area! read more

We had ordered a large thin crust pizza with sausage, mushrooms, and green peppers , it looked delicious but was soo salty tasting we couldn't eat it, called and told them of the situation and they gladly replaced it read more

Love pizza from Aurelio and they have a good an Italian beef sandwich that's good also.

Aurelios Pizza of Plainfield is top notch because of its quality food, service and value. The inviting aroma of an established pizza and Italian-cuisine restaurant invites you in. The food and service brought to you by owner/operator Mike Pascale's team provide you with their "A" restaurant game from there. Highly recommend coming here for a great family meal! read more

We really like the pizza! Mushroom and spinach is our favorite! We will be back! Might need to try new stuff too... read more

I've always loved aurelios pizza. Their sauce is very unique. I recently had to go gluten free and was nervous about my options. I've been setting out to find the best gluten free pizza around and I may have found it! This crust was so amazing! The combo with that and the sauce is top notch. I also love the restaurant in general. It's always clean and the bathrooms are amazing. The service is always great and I like having the TVs around to watch. We've held several parties in the back room with no complaints! I highly recommend them for a dinner, a party, and catering! read more

I highly recommend Aurelio's Pizza in Plainfield, IL. My husband and I have been dining at this restaurant for many years. It is spacious yet cozy. It has a large menu, the food is tasty, the service is great, the wait staff is polite, the prices are reasonable, and they serve food other than pizza. read more

Aurelio's ranks towards the top of my list for best pizza in Chicagoland. Their sauce is a bit on the sweeter side, but it's not overbearing or unpleasant in the slightest. You can really taste the quality in every aspect of their pizza. We stopped in today for their lunch buffet special. At $10.95 each, you can't beat the price. It includes all-you-can-eat pizza, salad, and hot food items (such as fried shrimp, sausage and peppers, and various pastas). There are also a few dessert options available, namely soft serve, brownies, and an apple crumble pizza. I'm always a bit weary of lunch buffet offerings, as they generally tend to be an afterthought to the general lunch menu, but that's not the case here. The food was refilled as soon as it was emptied and fresh pizzas were brought out as needed. Additionally, our server, Pam, was a delight and made sure our cups were always full and dirty dishes weren't on the table for too long. In all, I don't have anything bad to say about Aurelio's as a whole or this experience. It is excellent in every regard. read more

This is my dad's favorite pizza ever, he had a very bad week so I called (from California) and ordered him a pizza. I asked them if they would write a message on the inside of the lid. I was sooo happy when I received this picture from my dad. Thank you to the employees for carrying out my request, it means more than they may realize read more

Very good pizza as usual, one of my favorites. It is very clean inside and the staff is very friendly.

I got scammed 3 times already, I have bought double dough pizzas from this place and 3 times they just rolled the edges and called it double dough, the pizzas were as thin as the thin crust pizzas read more

Best Pizza in my view. Great Service. Pleasant atmosphere. Consistent Quality. Antipasto Salad great also.

Came when they had Santa - saw it on a coupon in the mail. When we arrived we were told they had buffet style servings - okay we could make that work. Food was not good, pizza was awful and would rather have had Pizza Hut. At the end of the meal the waitress said we couldn't use our coupon because it wasn't available on buffet nights. Huh? It says any purchase over $40 and they don't list exclusions on "buffet" nights on the coupon. Due to food quality and failure to honor their own coupon we will not be back. read more

Ordered a pizza for pick up - when I got gone realized they added mushrooms which we are allergic to. Called the restaurant and asked for a refund. Was told the pizza would be refunded to my credit card. Didn't happen and that was four days ago. Not the first time a pizza has been wrong from there. I've never called before asking for them to rectify it. Given the food allergy I can't just pick off the wrong ingredient. The pizza went to the trash. And I didn't want to have to go pick up a replacement 30 minutes later. Seems my business isn't that important to them. UPDATE - AURELIOS DID ISSUE THE REFUND!!! read more

I ordered a pizza Saturday evening. I was excited to receive a flyer from them in the value pack mailer. I usually order from rosatis or vitaBella and or pizza hut and I wish I would've ordered from them and not changed it up. Bad experience overall!!! Only good thing was the apology from the driver, nice guy. To begin with my husband is allergic to onions- I ordered a large pizza all sausage half mushroom green pepper and jalapeños and we got onion all over pizza. I understand people make mistakes but when you do own up to them. I called and asked to speak to a manager. as older male answers very rudely and didn't even apologize for their mistake. He just asked if I wanted a new pizza?!! Well that's the obvious! He was so rude- i expectated compensation a credit or something for their mistake I didn't even get an apology! I will never order from this place again . read more

My friend and I hosted a baby shower at Aurelio's in Plainfield this past weekend and we have nothing but good things to say about the experience. We stopped in a while ago to take a look at the special event area and get some information on pricing. The lady we spoke to at that time was very helpful, gave us a packet of information and showed us the space. She gave us a few moments to talk and we decided to get our date in the books while we looked over the contract in just a little more detail after we had left. We appreciated that they weren't pushy and understood the need to review pricing and details a bit more before committing. After deciding it'd be a good place for our event, I was emailed a form, and was able to email back to finalize the reservation. Two weeks before the event, I called to confirm attendance numbers and the package. On the day of the event, we were able to get into the space thirty minutes before it started in order to set up. The lady helping us set up was so helpful and made everything so simple. She set the place settings for us, got water, soda and cups ready promptly, asked how we wanted to arrange tables (there was a onesie making station so needed an extra empty table in the corner) and brought out an extra table for us when we needed a bit more space. I loved that we could bring our own centerpieces and decorations (although nothing can be attached to the walls). During the event, food, drinks and salad were refilled quickly and dishes were cleared promptly from guests that were done as well. There were a few minor things we forgot such as a knife to cut the cake and a permanent marker - and they were kind enough to provide these items for us without hesitation. Right as we started opening gifts, we realized we needed a garbage bag and wala! the coordinator had one ready and waiting for us without even asking. You can tell they're good at hosting events. Overall, we are definitely happy we chose Aurelio's to host our baby shower. The food was good, environment perfect for the size of our group, and service top notch. read more

I am a big fan of Aurelio's! However this experience left me in total disappointment. No doubt that it's still one is the best Pizzas out here but today's delivery wasn't eye appealing. The pizza was sloppy, burnt, bubbles in dough where the cheese didn't stay put! 3 stars because it's still a good pizza. Wasn't the best like always. read more

Pretty sure it was shredded cheddar cheese on my pizza, extremely greasy and the dough wasn't cooked all the way through

We have been coming to this location since it opened. Unfortunately, the quality of the food has gone down quite a bit. We ordered one combo appetizer, a thin crust pizza and dessert for take out. We got home and started with the appetizer which was really good. Then the pizza. To our surprise, we opened up the box and the pizza was really burnt. Will never understand why any establishment would think that it was appropriate to give a customer a burnt pizza instead of making a new one, they weren't busy. We couldn't eat it and threw it out. We ordered a brownie for dessert and thought it would be like any other restaurant that you order dessert from, large enough to share. Unfortunately,it was three tiny squares of a brownie in a plastic container. If anyone has eaten at the buffet, it's the small square brownies they offer on the buffet; not what you expect for almost $7.00. The entire order was $53.00 and we ate the one appetizer that we ordered and three extremely small brownie squares. It's a shame the quality is going down as we have been visiting this location since they opened. Unfortunately, we won't go back. read more

Very disappointed when picking up our pizza the cashier was not masked. But tried to look past it. Then I could see a boy taking pizza from the oven unmasked as well! After looking around the store from the window drive up NO ONE was masked! They all had to be 25 and below in age. As people who are dealing with food I was appalled that they had no precautions. And to add to it the pizza was burnt to a crisp. Will not be back due to lack of respect from workers. read more

The sauce is beyond good and the crust was cooked to perfection would have again a great experience

We came here with the expectations of having an authentic Aurelio's pizza pie. We had a party of 10 and ordered a few different pizzas to try. We received all but one at the same time. After about 20 minutes, I asked the server about the other one and she told me the chef 'forgot about it'. The other pizzas came out with almost no toppings and were so undercooked, the dough was still gooey. I would not recommend this location and if I could give a negative star I would. It's unfortunate if they franchised Aurelio's because this would not be acceptable to anyone, especially not to the founder. My recommendation is to skip this place altogether, as there are way better options for an authentic piece of pizza close by...disappointing! read more
