| - We were just getting ready to go to Aurelio's for pizza and as normal I call the order in so that it is just about ready when we get there. I was STUNNED... to say the least to see that Aurelio's had CLOSED!!! WHY??? So I begin to read all the comments on Yelp to hopefully gain some understanding. Well needless to say, in search for "why did this great pizza place close" I see that many like Aurelio's and many do not. We are all entitled to our opinion, likes, dislikes... after all, this is America, we have freedom of speech. So here are my two cents:
1. I grew up on the South Side of the Chicago Suburbs. I use to frequent the first original Aurelio's in Homewood, IL.
2. The pizza is the BEST!!! There are perhaps two other pizza establishments in Chicago that I like, but I must say that Aurelio's is on the top of my list. Of course, it originated in the "South Chicago Burbs"... Sorry North Side.
3. A person on here from NY did not care for the pizza...blah, blah, blah... Guess what NY... I do not like NY pizza and I do not like that it is cut in pie shapes!!! Chicago pizza is round and cut square... we will not, or prefer not to eat it any other way!!!
4. A bit overpriced for many here in Vegas I read... Well, in Chicago, we pay for quality. So my guess is that you people who griped about the price do not mind the smoke filled casino's with restaurants that are often found on "Dirty Dining". You truly get what you pay for.
To the Aurelio family... I am extremely sad to see the only part of Vegas that I enjoyed and one that reminded me of home closed. I will see you in Homewood or Frankfort next time I visit!
