If you’re looking for some halal Italian food, then ask if they got halal meat here bc they don’t always do. But what they do got, it hits!! We got the meat lasagna bc halal pizza ain’t so rare no more. And yooo it was heavy hitting!! Cheesy afffff. Make the move and grab a bowl! The wings were good but like most wings not really worth the price point. The sauces with them tho. Those were amazing. We dipped the garlic bread it in and wowza. But yeah place isn’t the nicest but staff is so be nice and tip well!!!

We love Aroma Pizza and Pasta! We always get the Pink Sauce (Tomato-Cream) with whatever pasta we choose. We have also had their calzones which were wonderfully cheesy and the pizza was delicious as well. Everything has great flavor and the staff is always very friendly and accommodating.

Wish we could have a refund!!!We spent about $70 on this overall and the quality is so bad!Specifically asked for no cheese as my family member has a dairy allergy and there is cheese in both!!! Also the freaking calzones are burnt!☹️Awful experience I dont recommend at all!

Pizza is tasty but service isn’t the best, i think women’s might have better service than mens in this place.

We have enjoyed every time weve ordered from Aromas. They go above and beyond to make sure your order is how youd like it. Even when we screwed up our order. Last minute change.. they made it for us.

New place recently opened. I live in the complex next to Aroma and so I was hoping it was going to be great. Personally its not my favorite pizza, but Aroma is very very good. I have eaten here about 4 times now and every order was delicious. The pizza is tasty and they have a ton of ingredients and sauces to make some great combinations. Their calzones are also excellent. And their prices are cheaper than some of the alternatives. Ill be returning on a regular basis now. Menu images attached.

I’ve been ordering pizzas from this place on and off the last few years. It is my go to place when I am in the area. they have the tastiest Margherita pizza I’ve ever tasted. The calzones are pretty amazing as well. I recently tried their Garlic Cheese bread which are very delicious. A bit pricier than other competitors, but you get what you paid for, and for a repeating customer who seldomly consume pizzas, it said a lot. Photos to come the next time I place an order.

After I moved to California from CT, I was worried I might never find great pizza again..... fear not! It is at Aroma! Darn good pies and I have been there at least a dozen times. It remains my favorite pizza place in the area. Thank you Aroma!

Absolutely love everything about aroma pizza! The people that work here are so friendly and service oriented which makes eating here/ordering out such a pleasure. Honestly everything on the menu is incredibly delicious! So happy I have a reliable, yummy, and lovely go-to spot for the best variety of pizza and pasta :)

Delicious pizza, pastas and salads! They have a great selection, a friendly staff, fast delivery and the food is delicious. Portions could be bigger for the price but the taste makes it worth it! Highly recommend if you like Italian food!

Was very fortunate to come across this business a few days ago while in town with my daughter. We ordered 2 regular menu pasta dishes and 1 GF pasta with sausage and MB, EXCELLENT!!!! Very very fair portions and hot! The ownership and staff was so pleasant, happy to be busy as they were pumping out the orders that evening. Cheesecake for desert, yum. Positively will go back!

Easily the best pizza around. First, the temperature was perfecto 👌🌡, next, the cheese has amazing flavor, reminds me of pizza when i was a kid👦🍕 THE SAUCE very nice sauce! It had spice and herbs so flavorful... 🥲🤯 the crust nice, thin, but not too thin(Not a cracker🤢) it had a nice crispy crust.10/10 would recommend to random people.

Best pizza in town! Delicious and addicting. It’s a small family owned business that exceeds expectations both in food and customer service. The truffle burrata pizza is a must for those who like European style pizzas. Give them a try!

Delicious and quickly made, my husband and I love this place for a quick yummy bite. The staff is always so friendly and happy to see us. I definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a pizza spot in the area.

Order delivery on the whole order wasn’t there I was missing the salad that I ordered. Be careful if you order delivery from this place I don’t recommend .

Pizza was just ok. The sauce/gravy was very acidic with the consistency of tomato paste. Had such bad heartburn. You can customize - the reason they got 3 stars- so if we go there again we will say light sauce. We tried a salad that was $12 and big enough for 2 people.

Their pizza is outstanding and my wife refuses to order from anywhere else. We usually keep it simple with Turkey Pepperoni and Basil and its perfect everytime. I usually order their vegan cheese pizza as well and love having that as an option. Their garlic bread is also a very good appetizer. Highly recommend!

A little shocking experience as we were having our dinner from Aroma Pizza last night. I noticed a metallic twist tie baked into my pizza. We have been fairly regular customers at Aroma Pizza and enjoy the flavors and then this happened.Whoever made this pizza needs to surely take customer safety and pay attention to what they are making to serve. Disappointed!I have attached a pic of it.

This is by far my go-to pizza place, especially whenever there is a function. Their King Kong size will fully satisfy 4-6 adults. Their garlic chicken pizza is my favorite! Pasta is also very good! Their salads are single serving as a meal or can be split between 2 people.

Great little pizza joint. Their lunch special is unbeatable for $5 you get two slices of pizza and a drink. The slices are big and in my opinion better than the other local pizza places just the right amount of sauce and cheese plus the dough they use is fantastic.

Food is great, but the only two times I have ordered delivery, they delivered to the wrong house (including tonight). I am not sure why that is, they were surprised both times. Google maps shows my house in the right location... Not sure why this is happening but its discouraging for me to order delivery from this place in the future feeling like Im going to have to go through the dance of explaining that I didnt receive my delivery...

Really yummy pizza! Love all of the different options their menu offers. I was able to get a personal pizza for myself, and my fiancé got his own large so he could have leftovers later. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is because I ordered one of the “speciality pizzas”, the Truffle Burrata, and there were 0 truffles on it. The menu advertised the pizza with shaved black truffles, and I didn’t find even 1 on my pie. The pizza still tasted great, but I was really looking forward to those truffles!

Yum. Yum! Super YUM! Weve only tried the pizza so far, but man it is delicious. The crust is thin, the toppings are fresh. This is quality pizza. The whole family agrees. And that almost never happens.

They take forever to make an individual pizza. Waited ordered ahead of time, got there 20 min after I placed my order, but still had to wait 40min once at the restaurant. I asked for an update about 25min into waiting and was told it’ll be out in 2mins. That wasn’t true I had to wait 15min after asking for an update

Although the app didnt add my coupon, it was more an innocent glitch than anything else. This was my first time trying their pizza and oh wow!!!! What a great pizza it was!!! The staff was very friendly and Im Soo glad they are Soo close to me..This is my new pizza place!!! (Hopefully the coupon will work next time)😁😁😁

Wouldnt think it would be SO Good! The BEST Calzones I have found Since Tonys Pizza in Lodi, Ca. That is over 25yrs of trying different spots all over the West Side. Never thought I would find a worthy replacement and Aromas Is The Place Hands Down!! Pizzas, Pastas Calzones, Whatever it is...It Will be Fresh and The Best Around...look No further fellas, ya Found it! Thanks Aromas crew for Keepin it Fresh!Update: When ordering a Calzone make sure you order the Calzone Combo vrs individually naming the toppings as they charge for Each topping even if its the Same toppings listed in the Calzone Combo. It adds up Quick

I decided to give this new mom and pop shop a try and I could not have been more pleased! The staff welcomed me as I walked in and I was unsure of what to order (as it was my first time). The manager recommended the New York Cheesesteak sandwich with added pepperoncini’s and I’m happy to say I’ll be returning soon! :)

Avoid avoid avoid.Was in the area and figured I’d try this new place. Ordered a 10” margarita pizza which is almost standard around the world, not here. The pizza did not have any sauce and came with slices of fresh tomato on top 😳 the dough was awful too. I ended up paying $11 for bread with cheese.

It’s the perfect local pizza joint. Simple, convenient location with good parking, friendly staff, good pizza and great pricing. Nothing more and nothing less, and hits the spot when you want a quick and easy dinner.

Not your usual pizza. A cut or two above the other local pizza places. A richer pie - better mozzarella cheese (much better), better bread - bit of caramelization (yum). Costs a bit more, and worth it.
