Aurelio's Pizza Estero

Doing Joe proud, one pie at a time. This has been my favorite pizza for as long as I can remember. I have many fond memories of going to the original location in Homewood, IL as a kid after high school dances and enjoying it (probably too much) until I moved to SWFL years ago. I was thrilled to hear about this new location, which is closer to our home, but still almost an hour drive. It was worth every mile. The girl working the counter was super friendly and helpful. The pizza was SPOT ON and delicious. We even left with another one as a surprise for my mother in law. She was blown away at the quality and loved the blast from past. Keep up the great work!

Being from Chicago, having Aurelio’s conveniently located in Estero is a great perk. The other night, I ordered a medium pizza with half pepperoni and half sausage. It came out perfectly cooked and delicious. I highly recommend checking them out!

My favorite pizza from back home…it did not disappoint! Only difference is the crust is a bit thicker than the ones in Illinois. But my gosh was it good! Cooked perfectly. Finally a good pizza place within 20 minutes of me!!

I was sadly disappointed. Especially for 60.00 dollars for 2 pizzas. Hopefully they will figure out the soggy crust thomg. I will say though. The sauce and toppings are absolutely amazing and no other restaurant that claims Chicago can touch it. Crisp things up a bit and you put every other pizza joint out of business.

It falls off the crust and it’s super messy and doughy. This is not worth $43. The pizza itself is alright, but it’s simply not enjoyable. Never coming here again. I wanted my money back but they said they’d talk to the owner which I’m sure they never did and offered me utensils because thats how you “eat” it.
