"Best pizza in Aurora" is a high bar in a town with this many options. Our case is simple: we make real New York-style pizza — thin, hand-tossed, crisp on the bottom, foldable at the edge — and we have the recognition to back it up. The Washington Post named Little Pops the Best New York Pizza in Illinois, and our Aurora location serves the exact same pies.

A quick-service spot on East New York Street

Our Aurora shop is built for speed: carry-out, delivery, and online ordering, with the same recipes that started at our Naperville flagship. It is the place to grab a couple of pies on the way home or get dinner delivered without a long wait.

What to order first

If it is your first time, start with a classic cheese or pepperoni to taste the crust and sauce on their own — that is where New York-style pizza lives or dies. From there, the specialty pies, garlic knots, and salads round out an easy weeknight dinner for the family.

• Classic cheese — the truest test of a New York pie
• Pepperoni — crisp-edged and generous
• Garlic knots — hand-tied and tossed in garlic and oil
• A tossed or Caesar salad to share
