Aurelio's Pizza of Schererville

An old school pizza joint. It's probably been there since the 50s or 60s. Food was decent, service was stellar! I really like that they put the pizza on a grill rack so it doesn't get soggy.

I'm really sad to give this review, because Aurelios has been a family favorite for decades. This was our first visit to this location and unfortunately it was not a pleasant experience. My daughter booked the party from out of state so unfortunately it was booked site unseen. She booked the party room for 29 people for my grandson's wedding rehearsal dinner. First and foremost, the pizza was excellent as always and our waitress truly did their best to accommodate BUT... This establishment was severely understaffed. We had one waitress for 29 people and it might have taken 30 min for everyone to have gotten their first drink order in, and any refills there after took a lot of time. Not to mention the only food brought out quite late it seemed. It was the salad and garlic bread and rolls

I'm from Homewood, so I know Aurelio's. This is a decent enough restaurant, but I can't get past the men's room. Putting a urinal 8 inches from the sink is weird. Putting a full mirror in front of the urinal is weirder. Looking at yourself from an angle you've never seen yourself while doing that is super weird. Then the guy washing his hands right next to you looks in the mirror and sees all your Italian sausage hanging out. I'm not a fan of this. At least I'm a deep dish fiesta and not small thin crust. Could be worse.

First time eating here. Calm environment and I think the manager Jeff? Took the time to explain the menu. It was a little hard to read the print. Gave suggestions, food was great. I got a spinach and mushrooms calzone ?

Ordered pizza at 5:25. Was told it would be ready in 30-35. Arrived at 6:05, gave my name & was told it would be a couple minutes. 10 minutes later asked again & was told the same thing. 6:30 now & was told quote ‘we don’t know when your pizza will be ready’ end quote. This was happening to a lot of customers. Many asked for refunds, as did I never to return.
