    Food has always been good! From the polish to the chicken, hamburgers and seafood. I usually order the shrimp basket and polish (MAXWELL STYLE). My all time favorites. Food is always always fresh and delicious. Service is always good with their grand kids holding the fork down with customer service, and grandpa the chef! The establishment is small and cFamily owned which always my pleasure to try! mom and pop shops is always must visit !

    Best fried shrimp I've ever had. Super fresh, tender, wonderful crispy breading. Service was quick and friendly. Very reasonable pricing too!

    Don't be turned off because this (primarily takeout) restaurant is located in an industrial area, the food and value are exceptional. Stoped by on a Tuesday and ordered the Italian beef with cheese and giardinias. It comes with fries and a coke for $10. The service was pleasant and the food was ready in a few minutes (the time it takes to make). This may be the finest Italian beef in the greater Chicago area. Anyone who says different hasn't tried this. We will be back soon.

    WOW; what a great place. I got a bacon cheeseburger with came with fresh cut fries. The burger had crispy edges and was juicy inside; just perfect. The bacon stayed crispy until the end. Toppings were shredded lettuce, tomato, sliced onion with ketchup and mustard. The fresh cut fries came out perfectly cooked and were wonderfully crispy. Nothing could have been better. This will definitely be my go to place for a great meal and an incredible value.

    Windy grill First time customer. Shrimp was huge! Even the tail was peeled. Very crispy thick batter, not much seasoning. Italian beef sandwich was tasty. Wished it had a little more beef. Also would had liked marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese on it. Not a lot fries with the meals.

    Cheeseburger but the bottom bun was a bit crumbly..

    First time here today and must say it was pretty good. Got a cheeseburger and perch to split with the kids. The burger was really good and cooked just right. A lot of mustard on it and I love that. The meat had good flavor and and it had the right amount of cheese on it. The only downside was the bun was a bit crumbly. The fries that came with were really good too. Now for the fish. It was good but I didn't care for the breading. The tartar sauce was good. Not much to say about it. The food is a bit expensive but the food is really good and worth it I think. Gonna try a few more menu items so I can give it an honest review.

    Excellent burger deserves a 5 star but being from out of town I wish someone would have told us its take out only. We sat in the outside patio table & it was 90 degrees outside. It's so small they don't even have ice for the coke. So I would say def order burgers from this place & take them home to enjoy!

    Small building in the corner of a parking lot? I didn't know what to expect. But they have a customer for life. The smell of grilled burgers as I got out of my car was the first sign that i was in the right spot for a righteous sandwich. I ordered a double cheese that came with hand cut fries. Burger was enormous, cheesy, and exactly what i had anticipated. Delicious. I can't wait to go back and try the 1/2 pound steakburger that they have on special days. The guy that waited on me was friendly, owner?, and after i was eating he double checked to make sure all was well. Be sure to check prices. i added an updated picture with the current prices. My buddy got the beef sausage combo, its what he orders everywhere, and said it was awesome.

    1/2 lb Shrimp Combo...delicious, huge, perfectly breaded Shrimp!

We had the misfortune of dining here on a Monday night, when they have a Pasta Bar. The logistics around it were horrible. It was located in the middle of a corridor that we had to pass through to get to our table. There had to be at least a dozen people standing two abreast in a corridor intended for one person. We tried their calamari appetizer and were quite disappointed. They definitely did not use calamari steak, which is tender and succulent. Rather, they use calamari at the low end, and it was correspondingly tough and chewy. They offer a choice of unlimited salad or soup. Our server completely forgot to bring ours until after our main courses arrived. Had we not inquired about it, I suspect it would have been missed completely. As it turned out, the salad was mediocre at best, which is surprising considering it was supposed to be fresh. Not so sure about their supplier. The olive oil and herb mixture they served with their rolls was much more fresh than their salad, bitter implying a positive situation (fresh phenols) when it comes to Extra Virgin or Virgin oils. We ordered their Carbonara with Angel Hair pasta instead of spaghetti and fortunately, it was some of the best I have had in probably 30 years. The main course made up for the appetizer, though. Still, the overall experience was subpar. They did have very handsome bussers, so there was that!

The pizza we ordered was thin crust and it came to the table greasy as all grease. It didn't smell like pizza nor taste like it either.

Was comped the pizza and asked if we wanted to take it home- not sure why we would want to take it home to only toss in the trash. Never seen this manager before, again the ingredients changed on this place, I'm sure due to the cost of everything today they may be seeking lesser valued items and it sure tastes like it. We'll be looking for another pizza place to visit out of this town because there are no other good pizza joints.

    This rating is based on the fettuccine (penne) Alfredo with breaded chicken. It was $19 which was…read morequite a bit of money for what I received. When I opened the container I immediately noticed the majority of the pasta was dry (other than butter/oil) and the Alfredo sauce was only on the top noodles. Upon tasting the sauce I knew it was not homemade and tasted like jarred grocery store sauce. The breaded chicken was clearly processed because they were the same shape and not a breast of white meat chicken. Unfortunately, I was unable to eat what was basically nothing like a typical Italian fettuccine Alfredo with breaded chicken. The texture of the chicken was weird and the sauce was bland. I normally would have just let it go but thinking of the cost I just couldn't. I called, spoke with a manager, and explained how dissatisfied I was. This manager explained that the breaded chicken was processed, premade, frozen, and then cooked. The Alfredo sauce was just a brand (maybe Stouffer's?) name jarred sauce. The manager clarified that the grilled chicken was an actual breast of chicken cooked there and suggested that option. I suggested that the menu should clarify what kind of chicken was available and/or the person taking the order should ask if a premade chicken patty or a breast of grilled chicken was wanted. The description given implies both options are a boneless breast of chicken instead of a chicken patty. I was really surprised at the mediocre meal because I have ordered from numerous Aurelio locations for decades and didn't have the same results. It's possible that the company has made changes to the menu or this location has a different product than others. One week later I ordered the baked chicken tetrazzini from Nancy's and it was delicious. The difference between these two options was incredible. One was basically a frozen meal and the other was like a freshly made meal from a restaurant.

I ordered a small sausage, pepperoni, with the gooey cheese, and asked for it to not be overcooked. Price was $19 and some change. Pizza was overcooked, crispy, and had one sausage on each slice. But was piled with pepperoni that I didn't like. So, it will be another year before I return. Maybe next time I'll try a different location this one sucks. I've had problems with them before and returned pizza and got refund. Should've returned it this time too!
