10. Faso's Pizza and Pasta
Reviewed By DonRoute66
Fasos makes one of the best thin crust pizzas in the south suburbs. Maybe even the entire chicagoland area. I began enjoying Fasos in 1973 and it's still as good now as it was then.I currently live out of state in an area where pizza does not get the attention that a pizza should. I have learned to do more than just love good pizza. I appreciate really good pizza..Pizza is truly an art form and the people at Fasos are Picassos. I make it a point to include dinner from Fasos each time I return to the area. Unfortuntely, they are carry out / delivery only. Be aware too, they are cash only. GREAT PIZZA!!!

I have been coming here for many years. Great casual atmosphere . Wonderful employees and most of all terrific food. Great place to meet friends for a great lunch. They have a varied menu. I have never had anything that I didn't like. They have different homemade soups daily. On the last visit our table had fried chicken, ribs, a patty melt and a chicken panini! Everyone was pleased.

We have been coming here for years but never had the pleasure of having friends and family in for the family style banquet. So much to select from and very fairly priced. We ordered the salad. Italian beef. Fantastic. Fried chicken addictive. Mashed potatoes and gravy. Pasta Mixed vegetables. Included was buns for the beef and garlic bread. ALL homemade no instant anything. And it was so good. Next time you have a gathering one here you wonât be disappointed

We arrived in town and I saw the review and decided we had to try it. We got a seat in the bar area. There were various TVs around but the sound was down. The waitress showed up and I told her we had no idea as to what was the best to order.She suggested the meatball appetizer. --- DoneWe then ordered two different Italian dishes. Way too much food.The meatballs were very good. The appetizer is 15 (I think) small meatballs with sauce (gravy) and cheese. Very tasty. We finished half of them.The meals were good too and, of course, we took food to our daughter's for her to have leftovers.Best was the chef came out to chat with us and others. I always like that they come out and see what people think of their dishes. I'm glad we went.

This establishment has the worst customer service. They truly do not value their long time loyal customers. I have given this establishment my business for the past 20 years. I spend $50.00 dollars to $76.00 every time I visit which is every week to every two weeks. On this particular visit I ordered wings. Hot wings come with ranch correct? They wanted to charge me an additional 77 cents for ranch sauce for the wings. As a courtesy for a 76.00 bill you would think they would not be so petty over a ranch sauce. The manager refused to give me a ranch sauce. I will never give my business to arranello's again. They place no value on their loyal customers. The manager, I think his name was Kevin, should learn customer service skills, before becoming a manager. He was very rude.

Pop's Italian Beef & Sausage is a popular restaurant chain that opened in 1980 and currently has 12 locations in Chicago's south suburbs and Indiana. My wife and I are waiting for Pop's newest location to open on West North Avenue between La Salle and North Wells Street in our Gold Coast/Old Town neighborhood. The sooner, the better. Until then, we are content to visit the original Pop's Beef at 7153 West 127th Street in Palos Heights and the location at 10337 South Kedzie and at 18328 Governors Highway in Homewood and in Orland Park, Tinley Park, Lyons, Joliet, Lockport and Romeoville. A group of old high school pals met in Homewood recently and sampled a lot of items on Pop's menu...chili, cream of chicken rice soup, Italian beef, BBQ beef, corned beef on rye, triple cheeseburger, double boneless BBQ rib sandwich, chili dog, even a one-pound jumbo shrimp dinner. We washed it all down with milk shakes, root beer, lemonade and fruit punch. Pop's would be a welcome addition to the North/Wells Street corridor.

Friendly atmosphere with a dozen or so small tables for eating in. The usual posted menu for ordering at the counter and staff brings the prepared food to the tables. Seems like a good place to order carry out. Small ice cream counter, larger wall refrigerators with prepared food to grab and go, and some shelves with a variety of gourmet food items. Soups, salads, sandwiches and pasta are available with the option of ordering smaller portions for combination orders. Our pasta order was HUGE (a bit overwhelming) with a tasty marinara gravy, sandwich was less impressive.Staff was friendly and helpful.

We had a wedding rehearsal dinner here. They have a back room that we had to ourselves for most of the time. The wait staff was a bit slow but eh food made up for it. The lasagna was out of this world and a huge portion.

On a recent trip "back home" we had to make a stop where pizza is "heaven"! For over 30 years we have enjoyed the sausage and mushroom pizza at Aurelioâs in Homewood...thereâs nothing else like it. The sauce , the cheese, the atmosphere it all adds up to excellence. More than a dozen years ago we moved to Memphis where they donât know "pizza". Memphis is BBQ, not pizza. We even brought Aurelioâs back to Memphis with us!Whether itâs just you or a group you canât go wrong with the hospitality or the pizza at this iconic location.
