    10/25/24 FYI
    Lee D.

    LOL, my daughter chose a made-to-order restaurant, yet we had appointments to line dance at 7:30pm. Going to miss the first lessons, lol. Quality/Quantity - This place is known for their pizzas (so no really need to order anything else). Also, they were made-to-order, so you need to be VERY patient. Our two pizzas took approximately an hour, maybe over an hour... Greek Salad - Came out right away. Decent size, more than enough for the 4 of us to share. Mr T-Rex Pizza - This is like Little Caesars's 3 meat treat. Okay, but I actually like LC better. Willie, Cheech & Bob - I liked this also, but other than my wife, we all took the jalapeno off, for the safety of the people behind us when we go line dancing, lol. The Memphis - My favorite with the cole slaw. Very different and in a very positive way! Without the coleslaw, it is just a regular BBQ pork pizza. Happy hour available. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere - Small local restaurant. Halloween decorating contest, see pictures[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Semi open kitchen, see picture. One outdoor table. Two floors, including the rooftop dining. Small parking lot, we got the second to last space. One men's (and one women's) stall - Clean and cool decor, see pictures. Service - Margaret was good, but the kitchen was slow and backed up. It was Friday prime dinner time. Good thing we are patient. Actually, if it was not for the 1.5 hour wait, this would have been a 5 star review. Price -$68, including the mandatory (I mean convenience) tip, lol. Still reasonably priced for what we got. We took half a pizza back to the hotel. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2015 and with your two locations.

    The Memphis, no onion, no coleslaw, vodka sauce base. Perfection!!!

    We absolutely LOVE Aldo's midtown!!! We get the Memphis pizza with a vodka base, no onion or coleslaw and it's SO GOOD!!! Also the garlic knots with vodka sauce and marinara are to die for!!! I could drink the vodka sauce omg

    Fantastic experience. The ambiance, decor, and overall atmosphere were absolutely wonderful - definitely a place with a great vibe. The staff provided excellent customer service, and the selection of adult beverages was impressive. The food was a standout, particularly the pizza. The quality of the pizza was excellent in every aspect - taste, seasoning, quality ingredients, quantity, and presentation. The pizza dough was light, crispy, and had to have been hand-tossed by the bread lords themselves! Additionally, the finger licking dipping roasted red pepper garlic Hummus with lightly toasted Pita Bread and the Marinated Meatballs with Texas Toast were delicious, making for a thoroughly enjoyable meal. Overall, I highly recommend Aldo's Pizza Pies - Midtown for its outstanding ambiance, excellent service, and top-notch food. It's a place where both the atmosphere and the cuisine are sure to leave a lasting impression.

    Aldo's has some of the best pizza in Memphis. Hands down. Very few rivals exist in the Memphis area for great pizza, upbeat positive customer care, and a super chill vibe. This place even has a sweet rooftop bar over looking beautiful crime free Midtown Memphis. I have enjoyed every whole pizza I've had here. I have had it catered at the office a bunch. I wish that I could come here more often and actually dine in, but my wife slings pizzas (kinda) for a living, and it's just not even able to be on my radar. She just doesn't dig pizza like I do any longer. I would come here at lunch but I am fucking anti social at work and can't even touch a whole pizza by myself. The slices are out for me as it was the only time I had bad pizza was "by the slice" at lunch 2076 days ago. Maybe I should try again. '24 - 15/100

    What the heck! This was the best pizza I've ever had. I got oil and garlic in place of marinara. Topped with their signature cheese blend, pepperoni, onion, and green peppers The cheese is SO good and the crust is the best texture and flavor. It's buttery, flaky, and crispy like a biscuit almost (similar to fresh Pizza Hut breadsticks if I had to make a comparison to one of my guilty pleasures) I typically always leave the ends of the crust but I ate every piece of this one. The service was also great. I arrived before the quote time for my takeout order and the employee communicated updates and then walked over my pizza when it was finished. I'm traveling from Texas to Massachusetts and was excited to eat some pizza that I miss from my hometown but now I'm mad the best pizza was in Memphis the whole time

    Slice of the day

    Aldo's is one of our favorite pizza shops. Every time we order a side house salad with their excellent homemade ranch which is a must have for any pizza restaurant! After salads we are creatures of habit and always order the slice of the day. Todays slice was pepperoni pizza with red onions and spinach. The slices are large and come out quickly! Our server was kind and attentive and everything came out at the appropriate pace. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is modern steampunk ish.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Gratuity is automatically included in the bill at time of payment.

    Garlic Knots

    My friend and I decided to tried Aldo's on August 31st, 2024 and it definitely was worth it. When we walked inside the restaurant we were greeted immediately and waste no time getting in our seats. Our server Ashley made sure we didn't have to wait long for our order. Ashley kept checking on us to make sure everything look right with our order. My friend and I tried the garlic knots with the tomato sauce was a perfect appetizer before our pizzas. I decided to build my own pizza with pepperoni, caramelized onion, and bacon. The caramelized onion were a little too burnt for me, but the pepperoni, bacon, and the crust helped neutralize the burnt flavor of the onion. Definitely a place I will go again.

    I usually order The Lombardi or The Memphian. I have never understood paying for gourmet (non fast food) pizza until Aldo's. It is savory and so much fun to eat. I really feel that this is the best pizza in Memphis and completely worth the price The ambiance is a bit loud and chaotic, which I enjoy on occasion. Service may be fast or slow depending on how many people are there.

    Just a typical pizza joint. No bells and whistles. Just a casual and laid back atmosphere but I enjoyed. We were a large group but service was very good. The servers were attentive and brought out orders out fairly fast. Firstly we tried the meatballs and hummus for an appetizer. They both were pretty good. There are quite a few selections of pizza to choose from including options to fit all dietary needs. Someone in my party was gluten free so they made a pizza to accommodate her. The rest of us enjoyed the Memphis (pulled bbq pork topping), chicken pizza, cheese pizza, and a meat lovers. They are not stingy with the toppings at all and the slices were huge. Oh yea, if you're feeling fun & free as I did, be sure to try a delicious cocktail. I had the Nutella martini and it was delicious and gave me the bite I was seeking. Midtown parking can be challenging but they had a small parking lot and plenty of street parking. If you're craving some hearty, good pizza this place is worth a try.

Went with my mother and sister while we were staying nearby attending a wedding party in Bartlett. Read about Catherine and Mary's online and decided to give it a shot based on pics and reviews. As soon as we stepped inside we were warmly greeted and made to feel at home. I must say here that my sister has a small disorder such that it's hard for her to talk in complete sentences, and she has a notable stutter. This means she also experiences a great deal of social anxiety. She felt so welcomed that she hardly stuttered while we were there, and when we left she said, "This was such a good place for people like me." I loved that they made me and my mom welcome, but am doubly grateful that you went out of your way to make my sister so happy. She really felt like you treated her like an old friend. My sister has a speech problem, but she's not mentally disabled (in fact she's an electrical engineer). So the kindness was not lost on her, and I know this will be a place we'll look forward to when we visit family in the Memphis area. Thank you so much for the excellent food and the awesome vibes!

We shared two of the salad platters. Then we dug into multiple pasta dishes along with the chicken and fish entrees. There's a wide variety of mixed drinks, wine and beer to choose from.

It's a big space, but you can still easily hold a conversation. There's complimentary valet parking just around the corner.

Not much flavor. My wife had shrimp in macaroni pasta. It, too, was meh. However, one of our friends had the salmon. She loved it. To top off our meal, we had cheesecake...yep, you guessed it, meh. The whole meal was average and a bit disappointing for the price.

My goodness, it was delicious and I have been craving to go back. First off, I appreciate that they are a kid friendly place. I understand not every place has to be, but when a place offers something for kids, it just makes the dining experience even better for me. They were out of the kids cheese pizza, but our waiter did a cheese flatbread for my son. I mean, that alone was good, but my entree was the best! I had the basil pesto tortellini. All the flavors came together perfectly in it. Highly recommend! My husband got the bbq chicken flatbread, one of the best flatbreads we've had. Seriously! As an appetizer, we got the baked spinach dip. It had so much flavor and pairing it with those house made tortilla chips were just the extra it needed. The only thing that was disappointing was the tiramisu. We have had better. The espresso flavor just wasn't enough for my liking. We'll be back for sure! Maybe a date night for dinner.

After leaving a nearby bar, our group stopped in simply looking for food. The restaurant was virtually empty, yet the manager, Charles, insisted that if any of us sat near one another, we would be considered one large party and could only have one check. I explained that we had no problem sitting at separate tables, and each table would gladly have a single check. That should have solved the issue. Instead, Charles instructed an inexperienced and unprofessional server to scatter us throughout the restaurant and warned that if we interacted between tables, we would still be treated as one party. From a management standpoint, this decision made no sense. Rather than maximizing an opportunity to generate significant revenue, leadership chose to create unnecessary obstacles. Ironically, spreading us throughout the restaurant would have required opening multiple sections, increasing the workload on servers and support staff instead of simplifying operations. Leadership sets the tone for a business. Good managers solve problems and create positive guest experiences. They don't create barriers that send paying customers elsewhere. At the end of the day, every business has one primary objective: to generate revenue while providing excellent customer service. Unfortunately, this experience demonstrated poor judgment, inflexible leadership, and a missed opportunity to earn the business of 24 guests who simply wanted a meal. I hope Curfew reevaluates this approach because customer service, common sense, and hospitality should always work together.

Moody lighting, low rumble of noise and music you enjoy but don't notice. My kinda place. Rye was our server and she was excellent. Not only top-notch recommendations but also let us know about the tasting menu- I can't wait to come back to try the off-menu one they do the last Wednesday of every month. We got raw oysters to start and chose the seasonal preparation. It was almost like frozen lemonade crème fresh, but with the brine of the oysters it just worked. Would def order again! We started with a whiskey sour and AM old fashioned. Both great but mine was so good my husband ordered another round of them for us before we got a bottle of red. I don't recall what bottle it was but it worked perfectly as it wasn't too heavy and swung easily from apps/pasta/entrees. Then we opted into the blind tasting menu. 5 courses, chosen from the menu that you don't know what you're getting until it touches the table. My husband and I are pretty adventurous as far as food goes so it was perfect for us. No shit- Everything was amazing. I loved the tasting menu as it was not any dishes we were considering and I am so glad we got to try things we wouldn't have otherwise. For example, the little asparagus appetizer was the best thing we ate, on God. Like, what in the actual F ! The kind of magic they created with those little green veggies was out of this world --I didn't even want to swallow it was that delicious. There was some kind of fish crudo with beet and kumquat relish. Weird and so good! We also had some pasta with a lemon-y butter sauce and spinach and then a chicken entree. I was getting so full by the time entrees came I ate less than half of it but the skin was crispy, chicken was cooked to perfection and husband finished them both. Now yall, the dessert was a heavenly little pot of rich chocolate with a caramel base and crunchy honeycomb crisp on top. I was so full I couldn't finish it but my husband finished his and then mine. We also ordered a little affogato and it was perfect to finish the meal. I will absolutely be back and look forward to trying their other restaurants in the near future!!!
