Filippi's Pizza Grotto Little Italy

We had a nice experience at Filippi’s Pizza Groto. The service was very kind, the ambience is welcoming and it matches the Italian aesthetic. Now, the food was very tasty, but there’s some things that they could improve. The pasta was good but I think it was a bit undercooked, although my mother said it was ‘al dente’ so I’ll say it’s about taste. The pizza was great but we just thought that it was a bit too thick. Ceases salad was perfect, no complaints, and the garlic bread was delicious. I do would recommend to try Filippi’s Pizza but you need to go hungry, cause the portion sizes are big,

Filippi’s pizza grotto was a great pick for dinner for us. Of the many places to choose in little Italy it intrigued us the most to try it. The staff was incredibly friendly and baby friendly. We started with the kids Alfredo for our 15 month old and the bread half cheesy. The kids portion was huge and we were glad to try some as well! Alfredo had that rich creamy flavor. We split pizza and some spaghetti and ravioli with sausage and meatballs. The ravioli were stuffed to the brim and bursting with flavor. The meatball was ginormous and packed so much flavor in every bite. The pizza was also very good. Definitely would go back and worth stopping in if you haven’t. I enjoyed looking through the store out front as well. We sat outside on the patio but there was plenty of indoor dining as well.

Our first time trying this place and we loved it. We ordered the supreme pizza and it was absolutely delicious. All the flavors and ingredients were very tasty. The cheese was amazing!! We also ordered the seafood filipini pasta and it was absolutely delicious dripping with olive oil and mushrooms and tomatoes and lots of shrimps and scallions. We definitely would eat there again. Very pleased!!

My family and I have been coming to Filippi's for over 45 years, and we've had countless of memorable dinners, birthday celebrations, and special moments here. The atmosphere is warm, relaxed, and inviting, with an authentic Italian charm that keeps us coming back. The service is consistently excellent, but the real star is the food. The portions are generous, the quality is outstanding, and their award-winning pizza is absolutely amazing. Everything on the menu is fantastic, but our favorites on rotation are the antipasto salad, mushroom pizza, meat lovers pizza, cold torpedo sandwich, and linguini with clam sauce. Filippi's is always one of our first choices when hosting out-of-town guests, and it never disappoints. It's a true San Diego staple and a place that has been part of our family's traditions for generations. Highly recommended!

A very warm, family-owned spot with so much history! Our waitress was exceptional, treating us with genuine kindness and intentionality. We loved her so much! As for the food, it was phenomenal for some of us and just okay for others. If you go, I would highly recommend the veal and the shrimp dishes—they were definitely the standouts of the night. Overall, a classic Little Italy experience with incredible service!
