Reviews for Filippi's Pizza Grotto in San Diego, CA
I've been going to Filippi's Pizza for decades. I've always enjoyed going until this last trip. Maybe it was just this... location? There were open seats so being too crowded wasn't the problem. We went last night for a family birthday gettogether. Everything went smoothly until we got the food. Salads first. Mine bowl was 1/2 filled with dressing . It as morelike a soup with lettuce than a salad. Picture posted, soup is not an exaggeration. Next came the pasta meals that came outtogether. All those with pasta were done eating by the time the pizza came, which I had. The pizza was barely warm, but nothot at all. Felt like they were just sitting in the the back the whole time, even though wait staff said "pizzas take longer"when we finally asked about them. Never had that issue at other locations. Then came the bill. We didn't realize until laterthey not only charged our credit cards incorrectly but over charged us by quite a bit. We split the bill so didn't realize thetrick they played. In summary, jury is out on if Filippi's is worth going to anymore. But, if you go, skip this location. Very subpar place now. Read more
We've been to a different location and thought the quality of food would be just as delicious. We looked forward to the... Antipasto Salad and it was no where near what an Antipasto Salad would look and taste like!!! One pizza ordered was The WorksPizza and it didn't work out for us as it had almost no visible topping except for onion pieces, few other unrecognizableingredients. Fried zucchini was mostly burnt and chicken wings were tough. We did like the calamari rings and the meatloverspizza. The servers were kind and attentive. The Star is for them. They deserve it.

first time at this location .. I really enjoyed the space. Fresh hot pizza super super thick cheese. The lasagna was okay. the... service was okay. Not very attentive even though it was not busy. good vibe overall experience was cool. Read more
apparently they are individually run, so things are not the same as the one in little italy. almost everything we got at this... location was good, but their lasagna brings shame to the filippi name. its just pasta stacked with some cheese on top. there wasbasically zero ricotta, or any cheese, between the layers weve never been to an italian american restaurant that doesnt putcheese between the layers definitely recommend coming for anything but the lasagna. unless you like it with no cheese Read more
My review Jan 2021???????? I was a big fan of Filippi’s but not anymore, last night we just ordered one Alfredo pasta ????the... pasta was hard like they didn’t cook well, also the chicken for this pasta supposed to be neutral test, to be good withAlfredo sauce but I think the chicken wasn’t fresh that’s why they add a lot of different spices to cove up that, at all Inever back to that restaurant again, I’m so disappointed My review 7 months ago ???????? Our order was pizza, salad, andfries, to go. food was delicious as usual but the service was not, they forgot to give us forks for salad, ketchup for fries,and cheese and pepper flakes for pizza Read more
Wonderful (& cheesy) experience! Our server was an absolute gem. The atmosphere is on point. The crust to cheese ratio was just... on point. Highly recommend!! Read more
Fantastic service and food. My husband raves about his high school days at Filippis so I had to try it. They didn’t... disappoint. We soooo appreciated they allowed us to split a pizza with two specials most places don’t let you do that so thatwas a huge bonus. Great atmosphere, yummy food and awesome service. Read more
