Great service. Great food. Great people. Tons of options on their color coordinated menu. Almost looked like an NFL coach's play sheet. They have a mini 8 inch pizza appetizer. Why has no one thought of this before? Jimi almost wanted to order the Noah's ark... 2 of everything! 5 stars read more

Decided to try this place on a whim and was surprised by how much I loved it! The Margherita pizza was delicious, perfect amount of cheese, yummy whole tomatoes, and an excellently crispy crust. I also tried the Costa Mesa chicken club, but it wasn't my favorite. It was somehow very salty and one note despite all the different toppings that were included. read more

We go her a lot. Good food, sports bar vibe and the staff are always attentive. We had pizza delivered recently, and just wow, it was a really good thin crust. Lots of fresh flavor, not over priced and baked just right. Just another thing Aroma does great! We'll definitely get pizza here again, it was so good. read more

Always love visiting Pizzeria Aroma. It is an Edgewater staple for many many years. Jim and his team do a fantastic job. Food is very consistent and a great value. Neighborhood gem and great to the community. read more

I've been here a couple times now and it will definitely be one of my new pizza & pasta places. First time we got pastas and they were so fresh and we both thought it was some of the best we've ever had, the flavors and the pasta were so fresh and delicious. So the second time I went I got a pizza to-go and that was also equally delicious and cooked perfectly. The staff were very attentive and polite as well. read more

Pizzeria Aroma - Vegetarian Pizza with chorizo - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The boss ordered pizza for us on my suggestion from ordering from Pizzeria Aroma. With different people wanted different things we settled on a thin crust pepperoni and chicken Alfredo pizza. I'm always nervous recommending places that I love, but my co-workers hasn't tried. We ordered online to avoid those pesky food apps charges. Plus they have their own drivers. The driver that dropped off our order was friendly. The pizza arrived and everything smelled great. As my co-workers started to eat they really loved the crust and flavor. The chicken Alfredo pizza was a big surprise, to my tomato hating co-worker. He loved that the spinach and broccoli was cooked well. This might be our new spot for ordering staff lunches. read more

Still hanging tough in Edgewater! Popped into here the other night. Uncharacteristically sat in the back dining room, and the pace was POPPING. Jim, the owner, working hard as usual, was bustling around the dining room, checking on patrons, delivering dishes, replenishing drinks. We had sandwiches on this night. I had the Cuban Torta. Very good! I'm partial to any sandwich that has pickles. This one was true to what a Cuban sando is - pork, pickles, etc. - recommended! It was enough for two meals, I happily ate the other half the next day. I got a simple side salad with my meal. Something so simple, but so great. First of all, the lettuce and vegs are fresh. I mean FRESH. The vinegarette . . . it is perfection. The proportions were exactly right - I'm someone who LOVES vinegarette, and this was fantastic. Okay, I sneakily DRANK the rest of the dressing once I was done with my salad. I could have put it on my sandwich, hmm, great idea. But I drank it, and I'd do it again. It was that good. My BF had the meatball sandwich, and WOW. Wow. It looked good, and a small bite that I grabbed confirmed that it was fantastic. It was pretty standard meatball sandwich, except it had giardiniera on it - extra tanginess! The size was massive - four juicy meatballs. I'll go back for this one! Every night you go in, there are going to be specials. Drink specials as well as food specials! We had Old Fashioneds on this night, and they were extremely tasty. I also opted for a Snowball Martini - which was on the sweet side for me, but I'm a sucker for a blue drank! Casual, friendly, neighborhood joint. Menu like a Greek diner, they have everything! You will definitely find something to love here. read more

Pizzeria Aroma is a solid staple in the community. I've ordered from Pizzeria Aroma a handful of times and I haven't been disappointed with the pasta or calzone. They offer daily drink specials and monthly specials if you check online. I've only been able to visit in-person a few times and they always have ample seating. The restaurant is spacious inside and the staff was friendly. Pizzeria Aroma is my go-to place for calzones! I've been on a hunt for a solid calzone since my days in New York. They sell a monster calzone with 4 ingredients before they start to charge for additional ingredients. I love that they don't hold back on the amount of ingredients you get. You can easily get three to four servings from the calzone. It is a great bang for your buck! The pasta dishes are large and jam packed with ingredients similar to the calzone. The fettuccine alfredo with broccoli is delicious! I've easily gotten several meals from the pasta dishes. Another great pasta dish is the chicken parmigiana. Pizzeria Aroma has affordable food and the portions are large so it offers one of the best bang for your buck in the neighborhood. I highly recommend checking out Pizzeria Aroma! read more

We've been to this restaurant multiple times. Sometimes with a party of 2. Other times with a much larger group. We have never had a dish that we weren't 100% satisfied with. Ravioli, fettucinni alfredo, athena chicken, spartan pork chops and pizza for the kids. The service is great. Atmosphere is intimate yet friendly. The owner greets us as if he's known us for years! Whatever you do, don't skip the apple pie - best I've ever had! read more

I haven't ordered from them in a minute....Ordered 3 rib full slab dinners. As outstanding as I remember but the portions were crazy huge!

Relatively good pizza. Crispy edge, loads of condiments Tiramisu is pretty generic. Nothing special but good price for a huge cake Got free parking on the side. Price's good too read more

My go to place in the neighborhood. The owner is always friendly and attentive. The food is delicious! My go to is the zucchini parm sandwich. Chef's kiss! read more

We celebrated a birthday at PA tonight. There was 17 of us. What a great night. The food was fantastic (as always). Service was superb! We had 5 apps and 5 pizzas. Food came out in a reasonable time and was hot and fresh. Jim was great with emails to confirm the event. Please go when you can!!! read more

Pizza is excellent and delivers quickly and efficiently! It's always a positive experience.

Haven't been here in a while and decided last night to get the bbq ribs special. Just wow! The amount of food and quality was off the charts. I need to make an effort to support this small local business owner more! Planning on taking my family there for a pizza party soon. Looking forward to trying some other offerings off the menu...I'm sure I won't be disappointed. Kudos to Pizzeria Aroma. Keep up the good work. read more

Thin crust pizza was some of the best I've had in Chicago. Delicious sauce, the crust is crisp and delightful, the undercarriage holds all the toppings perfectly. Happy to have found my go-to pizza place in the area. I highly recommend giving the thin crust a try. You won't regret it! read more

My favorite pizza to order take-out!! I love the thinner crust. Salads are good too. Delivery is always quick and friendly

The pizza I ordered was salty ! I'm still drinking water two hours later! I never had salty pizza before, maybe it was just a mistake?

Try this place for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Casual atmosphere, the food is good and they give you plenty of it. You will definitely have leftovers to take home. The server was very nice and attentive, even though he had quite a few tables to cover. We will definitely be back. read more

Loved it! Ordered pizza for pickup. It was waiting on the counter with my name on it and it was delish.

Great food. Huge, fresh salads and the best delivery ribs around. Pizza is also very good.

I have ordered Delivery from Aroma Pizza before. BUT the last order included YELLOW broccoli (every single piece!) much too obvious for the cook to miss. Instead of calling to complain and get a refund, I think that potential customers should know that the kitchen standards are NOT very high! read more

A nice local spot with great customer service! The server told me to try to the pizza so I did - it was amazing! Seriously, I was expecting it to be good (based on the reviews), and it was even a lot better than that. If you enjoy a thin but crispy crust, with a sweeter marinara sauce, this is THE pizza for you. I would 100% get it again if I was in the area. read more

This Pizza is Chicago's best kept secret! Thin Crust. Delivery is fast and the pizza is hot.

The food is decent. Doesn't always feel like a homemade soup. There's lots of broth, very little ingredients like vegetables, meat, or pasta. I ask for crackers to supplement the density. The pizza is decent. Pasta sizes are enormous. I've been coming here for over 7 years. Most recently the greeter/server/phone person has been very abrupt and unwelcoming. My prior two visits, I promised myself never to come back. But my guest enjoy the food price. Yesterday was the last straw. I called to ask their soup selection, he gave into me, and hung up. I called back to ask my additional question again, abrupt and hung up. I don't need to patronize this establishment. So, I went to my friendly diner on Argyle for soup. read more

We order from Aroma all of the time and it is always great, quality food at a good price, fast delivery, also good cocktails if your dining in. read more

Not good. Food was bland and the dishes were kind of dirty. They also got our order wrong we paid for thin crust and got the regular one

The food, the customer service, and the support of the community are all reasons this has been a go-to for years.

I've only experienced the food delivery service, and was very impressed. I was able to customize my sizable sandwich, which came with a choice of side dish. The combination of minestrone soup made for a delightful luncheon on a cold winter afternoon. I'll do it again in a heartbeat. read more

I was excited to try this place, but when I entered, the hostess and a man who were on duty gave me an odd look as if I walked into the wrong establishment. I asked if the restaurant was open, and the man said "what do you think, this is a restaurant." I did not get to try the food, and the interior of the restaurant seemed OK, but I was hoping for more hospitality. read more

I'm mad that I didn't find this place sooner. Their pizza is amazing and the restaurant feels like home. The owner is a great guy and cares about the customer experience which is becoming less and less common. Try the Buffalo style okra! read more

Always great pizza! We usually order delivery but have eaten in store a few times as well. The service was very good despite the crowd. The ONLY slight downside was that there was a large party that spoke VERY loudly. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys pizza. read more

Delicious Food, Warm Vibes, and Truly Thoughtful Service We stopped into Pizzeria Aroma on a whim this 4th of July, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our day. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the staff made us feel like regulars from the moment we walked in. We started with margaritas that were honestly some of the best we've had--fresh, balanced, and not overly sweet. For appetizers, we kept it light with their house salads, which turned out to be anything but ordinary. Everything was crisp, finely chopped, and beautifully plated. As a gluten-free family, we're used to making compromises--but not here. We ordered three different gluten-free pizzas and every one was fantastic. I had a 10" gluten-free pizza, my wife ordered a 10" with cheese, sausage, and veggies, and we brought home a medium cheese and sausage for the kids. Each pizza had that perfect balance of crispy crust, quality ingredients, and flavorful sauce. Dessert was a treat: a flourless chocolate cake made by a local bakery. It was rich and satisfying without being too heavy--a perfect end to the meal. What really stood out was the attention to detail and the genuine care behind the service. You can tell this is a family-owned restaurant with a lot of heart. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. This place is a gem--highly recommend supporting it. read more

Is this the best overall restaurant on the North Side? It might be! I'm sitting here eating leftover cold pizza for breakfast and thinking about how no crust should be this buttery and tasty as a cold leftover. But this is awesome pizza. Our go-to orders are Margherita, Veggie Pesto, and a combo of ham, pineapple and black olive. Thin crust is just a tiny bit more substantial than a cracker crust, and it's absolutely delicious. If you want high-end pizza or a basic pie, they cover all the bases really well. Pasta, entrees, salads, and sandwiches have all been excellent. Great burgers with a variety of toppings too. So this is a terrific place to go when you have a bunch of people who all want something different. (Kind of reminds me of what Leona's used to be like back before they sold it off and it got horrible.) Delivery or pick-up never a hassle and always on time. We've been going since they had that humble little storefront by the Berwyn stop. The full restaurant is such an improvement and makes a perfect weeknight, low-key date spot. Nice decor, but you can still feel relaxed in a hoodie. Parking in the bank lot next door in the evenings. Big plus. Good wine options and a full bar with very capable bartending. The owner could not be nicer. I used to order for someone in a nursing home every Friday, and they took the order before opening at times to accommodate her. Even memorized her usual order. When she passed, their catering for a memorial event was a huge hit. They were very easy to work with on it. While it's great to try new places, there are a few places that I return to again and again because they're just that good. During the pandemic, we made a point of ordering from here to help keep them going. That kind of loyalty comes from truly great food and excellent service. read more

Get this pizza ASAP! Lol I've ordered delivery from grubhub twice and picked up once. The food is always spot on! I have ordered their white pizza, which is absolutely delicious! We got their Aroma special pizza and added sausage, olives, spinach and tomatoes. OMG! Thee best pizza ever! I tend to eat with my eyes first and presentation is always an A+ with them. Fresh ingredients and they're always offering some sort of discount! Overall the best pizza in town hands down, we plan on trying more items off their menu. Oh, and the carrot cake is to die for! But you didn't hear that from me.. read more

Delicious pizza, great pasta and great deals every day of the week. Spartan platter is one of my favorites especially with all the sides it includes. Never had anything I regretted ordering. read more

All the dishes are good and their prices are reasonable. I love their eggplant parm. Very good thin crust pizza.

Pizzeria Aroma -- try the pizza and try everything else! Usually my partner and I order the thin crust cheese pizza, which is very delicious, but have recently tried other meals via takeout. This week, we ordered the 1/2 broiled lemon and herb chicken with a side salad over the phone. It was ready for pick-up in 15 minutes. It came with garlic bread and coleslaw, too. All for $12. We also ordered a side pasta -- angel hair with meat sauce. The chicken is perfectly tart, fall off the bone, and portioned well for two. The salad is also hearty. We both felt that the pasta while OK, and not our personal favorite, was a little bit too much food combined with the rest of our order for the both of us, so we saved it for lunch the next day. The chicken was so good that we ordered it again a few nights later when we had a busy night and were both too tired to cook. It was just as good as the first time. We're big fans! read more

Pizzeria Aroma - 1/2 Broiled Chicken, Side Pasta with Marinara, side House Salad - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Shout out to LaVerne for yet again putting me on, lol. Pizzeria Aroma is a tasty and reliable pizza joint. Chicago is known for deep dish, but locals know that's mainy for tourist. Tavern Style is the real Chicago style pizza. While this pizza's crust isn't quite the cracker thin crust found on the best tavern styles. .. it's pretty good. The wings are hand cut and a crowd pleaser as well. Pro Tip: Order the Dark Chocolate Cake. read more
