Grew up eating this pizza. Though I prefer the Glenwood location you can't go wrong at any of the three. Kevin and his team serve great pies and props to his father for creating this legendary pizza. read more

Delicious stuffed pizza with excellent mozzarella cheese and a lovely tomato sauce on top. An ample amount of sausage completed this deep dish specialty pizza. They also make yummy broasted chicken. Now in their 51st year Arrenello's is a south side treasure. read more

Owner is great, the food and ambiance is perfect, real old fashioned style place for sure!

I grew up on Arrenello's but unfortunately moved away 35 years ago. Every time I visit a deep dish is a must. I did as I was home for Christmas and in addition to ordering a deep dish for dinner I ordered 2 to take home to Virginia. They cook it and then freeze it for you. I was planning to pick up my 2 pizzas Thu evening but due to me misreading the closing time I failed to show up before closing. They called us to remind us that they were about to lock up and we had 30 minutes to get the pizzas. Had they not called I would have showed up an hour after they closed and wouldn't have been able to get them before I left the next morning. Not only the best deep dish in Chicago but the best customer service also. Rich, it's nice that things haven't changed. read more

Arrenello's Pizza is just a decent place to grab a slice. I don't eat here much, but it's my dad's go-to delivery place, so when he's in town we eat a LOT of it. They're always fast to deliver their pizzas, and they always show up hot, evenly cut, and looking pretty good. The sauce is a bit on the sweeter side, which I really like. They tend to put too much on for my liking though, and I honestly always forget to order it light on the sauce. It has a nice amount of cheese on it. The thin crust is a bit too thin and crunchy for me, but it's not bad. If I had my way, we'd order thick crust every time. Like I said, it's a place to get a pretty average piece of pizza. And average ain't bad. That said, I do think it's pretty expensive. A large cheese- that is, just cheese, no extra toppings- is about $19. That's a lot of money for an average slice, especially when that's not even with toppings added yet. All in all, it is what it is. Average pizza is better than no pizza, but in a place like Chicagoland where you can throw a rock and hit a pizza joint, you can have better. read more

Best local pizza available. They are deliveries and pick up. The also have a nice menu if you are looking for something other than pizza.

I have no descriptor words besides yum. Ordering more than two a year. Always get special sauce and if you can try and get deep dish. Sweet Pizza is a foreign concept for me but you can't argue with the results. Also I've been going to this place for a long time. People are faking pizza being bad in the pictures. If it was lime that, then they definitely improved. read more

This is the fifth time i called and they said they can't deliver cause of drivers they keep loosing money.

One of the best! Drove 30 mins to get it. The sauce is great. Generous topping and always fresh. Sausage was well seasoned

Excellent pizza ! The stuffed pizza one of the best I ever ate. It will leave you stuffed. Precise n quick service. Broasted chicken and chicken sausage great choice of food as they have many great and tasty selections. Top pizza establishments. read more

Have the thin crust pizza. It's delish. Arrenello's customer for 34 yrs. 14 in Glenwood 20 in Highland, In. Thank you for being consistent. read more

Best deep dish around. Always consistent. Be prepared for 2.5-3 hour wait times on carry out!!!!

This is the first time I've been to this location. This place was super clean with very friendly staff. Now about the pizza. It was very good. I wish the larger was a little larger. It actually needed less cheese and sausage. If the pizza was slightly bigger it would even out the pizza. The sauce is very good. It's a sweet sauce. It needed a little more. I'll definitely will be back and I got some awesome coupons for next time. I did order the wings and they were........... Not good and overcooked. I won't get those again. I'm looking forward to tasting other items on the menu. This pizza is definitely worth it. read more

The pizza sauce is a sweet sauce. To me, that is good. They have three locations, and not one of them delivers to me, not even through a third-party service. They should sign up with some third-party services. Perhaps this would overwhelm the kitchen. Well, expand the kitchen. read more

I'm pretty sure I've been eating here since I was born. I know the phone # by heart. Always a favorite and something I want to eat when I visit my mom back in Glenwood. Lately they have become really pricey though. I think last time we ordered a 2-topping medium thin crust was like $23..yikes! Anyways, I can always count on a delicious, hot pizza from here. read more

The pizza is good but it is way overpriced. They even charge you for crushed peppers and Parmesan cheese when you purchase a pizza. Who does that??? Peppers and cheese are condiments for the pizza and should be given out upon request. Their deep dish pizza is horrible!!!! It appears as though the dough , cheese and toppings are cooked in the oven then the red sauce is added on top afterwards and placed in a box to be delivered. read more

Arrenello's is one of those you hate it or you love it type places. I personally love it. FYI the sauce is sweet. If you don't like sweet sauce, this is not the place for you. The pizza is also a tad bit pricer than other local pizza places (Beggar's & Aurelio's), yet I think the flavor surpasses the competition and it's worth the few extra dollars. read more

Broasted chicken is the bomb. My wife loves the sweet sauce pizzas, I pass on that. Always treated well, and they go the extra mile.

Love love love Arrenello's Chicken sausage and green pepper thin crust pizza! Just the right toppings and cheese. A little expensive, but well worth it! I visit this location often. When I'm in Tinley Park, I visit that location and it's just as good. Keep up the good work, Arrenello's! read more

I don't live close by but this pizza is absolutely delicious. I personally think they taste better than Giordanos, I like that the sauce is slightly sweet, and they perfectly brown the pizza. This pizza is addictive and I will drive all the way from Chicago to get it and pass up all other pizzerias to do so. They are a hidden gem read more

Let me first say the pizza is good. However when spending 34.00 for a family size pizza and you ask for cheese and peppers. They charge you for cheese. I've never been to a pizza establishment that charges for cheese. read more

Yummy very good pizza and chicken w/then roasted potatoes!! The sauce on the deep dish and the other pizzas is out of this world!!

I've had Arrenello's for many years. We get it both in the Highland location and the Glenwood location. The people at Glenwood are MUCH nicer. Those who work in Highland are rude to customers, won't take coupons that expire one week before, and don't seem to have a handle on how long it takes for pizza to cook. The pizza is great. The sweet sauce is delicious. The reason I'm giving this a four is their pasta has made me sick, twice. My guess is that people rarely order the pasta and people aren't sure how to make it. The pasta was consistent years ago but since then has dropped significantly in quality. The one I ordered most recently sat it a pool of oil and tasted a little like vomit. It was the Penne Pomodoro. I swear, in 2011 it was delicious. In 2013 through now (I regret trying it again after waiting a few years), it's very unpleasant. Stick with the pizza. The pizza is really really good. Also, if you are in between Glenwood and Highland, visit the Glenwood store instead. read more

It pains me to leave a negative review for what I consider to be the best pizza place anywhere. Unfortunately, the manner in which my concern was mishandled by the manager and his staff justifies the 1 star review. Last night I ordered a medium chicken sausage and pepperoni pizza. I live in Chicago and made a special trip solely for this pizza. My family and I have probably bought hundreds of pizzas from this location over the past +20 yrs. This time there were bone fragments in the sausage. It was as if a chicken bone made it's way through the sausage grinder. Upon calling, the staff member assured me it was fennel seed and cumin. Clearly neither of these ingredients resemble bone fragments. I cook regularly with both. I know the difference. I rejected the notion of mistaking bone with fennel the staff member grew angry and tried to argue with me. I then asked to speak with the manager. She provided the number to their Tinley Park location where he typically works. After explaining the situation to him, he too passed if off as seasoning. Let me add that I've had this pizza several times and even vouched for it on Yelp (see my pic). He then conceded the sausage was not made in house, but he was still positive no error was made. He was insulted by the insinuation that a mistake had been made. He then angrily offered to replace the pizza, but before he took my information he hung up the phone. Amazed that an owner would conduct himself in such a manner. First and last customer service issue with Arrenelo's. It will be my last. read more

Arrenello's Pizza - Chicken sausage & pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Highland, Indiana

My first journey into the south side for pizza, and boy was it a mistake. People here doing the reviews said they grew up on it. Kind of reminds me of what those who like Emo in STL. I ordered the stuffed pizza. The first problem was the sauce. It wasn't the sweetness that I disliked as much as it was the texture. It tasted like pure tomato paste out of the can, extremely thick. Had to scrape it off. But that was just a little problem. The dough was still raw! I tried to eat just the sausage and cheese, but neither had any flavor. Only ate one piece and threw the rest away! If you did not "grow up" here, then I wouldn't recommend this pizza. Already drank two diet sodas to get the taste out of my mouth. Big disappointment. read more

Now I've been ordering from this place for years and the quality of the pizza used to always be great. But this one experience has definitely lost them a loyal customer. My pizza gets delivered at 930 at night and boy can I tell you this mess looks, feels, and taste disgusting. It's hard as a rock, cold, and the cheese is not gooey whatsoever. Basically cardboard on top of cardboard. I called to explain what happened and they gave the worst customer service ever. They told me I needed to return the entire pizza and another would be delivered in an hour. After this pizza took an hour and a half. Who wants to wait all that time after they haven't ate all day. Then she stated they could give $5 off instead. Unfortunately for the lack of empathy, you've officially lost a household of customers. read more

Arrenello's Pizza - They've officially failed me. This looks 4 days old - Pizza Near Me - Highland, Indiana

Today was my first, and last time, ordering from Arrenello's. The pizza sauce was more sweet in certain spots on the pizza then others. We ordered wings as well, which we requested plain. They were very dark in color(almost black) and very hard, even in the inside (yuck). My children refused to eat more then one square of pizza. On tho of that, this place is very over priced. Save you money read more

Arrenello's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Highland, Indiana

See all

About 12 years ago, Arrenello's was rated the #2 deep dish pizza in the Chicago area. For some bizarre reason, it's fallen off the list. However, I still crave this pizza when I'm at my parents' house. We used to order it everytime I came home from college because it was exactly the kind of meal that reminded me of home. The thing that makes Arrenello's deep dish different is the sauce. This is the sweetest tomato sauce I've ever tasted on pizza. For some people, that might be a turnoff. But if you're like me, you'll love how unique this sauce is (and how it compliments the other flavors in the pizza). When I was younger and ate meat, I used to always order pepperoni. Nowadays, I usually go for spinach stuffed pizza. SO GOOD. read more

Ive only ordered stuffed pizza here once, so take this with a proverbial grain of salt. The Good - great quality sausage, and the cheese of course was good. the lower crust was flakey and buttery and almost crispy ... outstanding! good price for the amount of food you get. The Bad - probably the sweetest sauce I've had in my entire life, i had to scrape it off the top to make the pizza editable :( which was sad because of the quality ingredients. the top crust was doughy and uncooked :( The Ugly - leftovers were frightening live and learn i guess read more

The BEST pizza in the Chicagoland area. Period. I grew up on Arrenello's as my grandparents lived in Glenwood for years before eventually moving to Florida. Since moving to the city though I rarely get back to Arrenello's but when I do it's always a treat. The locations in Glenwood and Tinley Park are virtually the same. Never had a bad pie at either location. I always order a thin crust pepperoni or sausage pizza..YIMMY!The sauce is sweet and unlike any other pizza you'll ever taste. My only complaints are the hours. WHY do they open so late? If they were open during the day I'd get to enjoy them more frequently. TO THE OWNERS: Please consider opening a location within the Chicago city limits!! read more

I tried Arrenello's based on reading the reviews for Aurelios and this was recommended instead. I have to say that this pizza was marginal in my opinion. Not bad, not outstanding. I'd still choose Aurelios if I had to select between the two. Other reviews mentioned how good the sauce was for this pizza and I thought that too was just ok. Prices ok. Nothing special... read more

We order from the Tinley Park location all the time. Growing up on the SW side of Chicago, Palermo's on 63rd was our pizza place. They too, have the sweet sauce, and a rocking deep dish. When I moved out to Tinley, I realized the Palermos in Orland delivers to my new house. We ordered once. It was good. The next time, I decided to try Arrenellos, since we live 2 blocks away. I picked it up. I've never ordered from Palermo's again. There is no reason to go anywhere else. I agree, if you prefer spicy sauce, this may not work for you. We however, like the sweet taste of the sauce. They obviously use the freshest ingredients, and nothing is every rushed. The staff is always friendly when we pick up, and the pizza is ready when we arrive. Two sauce soaked thumbs up! read more

Hands down favorite pizza. Love that sweet sauce. A tad pricey but well worth it. Can't stop eating this pizza. The only thing that got me was the hours. They open at 4, which is weird. I used to have a standing appointment that ended at 330 and would have loved to order my pizza before I left so it would be ready by the time I got there. But they open at 4, answer the phone at 4. Not 3:59, not 3:47, 4. read more

PLEASE!!! Hands down the best pizza I ever had. I use to love, well I still like it, Giordanos. But once I tried the pizza here, no doubt. The best tasting pizza!! I pick it up 5 minutes before they say its ready. They are fast! Lol. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Thumbs up!! read more

Grew up on this pizza. Some of my fondest memories as a kid- playing hard all summer day and then chowing down on a sweet and saucy pizza from Arrenello's. Although I live in Chicago now, I make special trips to get this pizza from time to time. I have also gone out of my way to bring it with me frozen when I was going to college in Carbondale. Best. Pizza. Evvvvaaahhhh! read more

Pizza is always made precisely how I like it. Sauce is amazing. It's sort of a sweet zest. Only thing I would say is work with cashiers more on being personable and customer service orientated but that doesn't take away from the good food! read more

Need to get the stuffed pizza, it's always delicious! We don't live in the Chicago area anymore, so when we ate in town, we get a pizza here, so so good!
