Filippi's Pizza Grotto Escondido

pizza and the setting here is great. Visited on Sat I believe. It has a cool feel to it. Feels similar to a restaurant in Philadelphia that I enjoyed visiting.

pizza at this place - very good. It's so delicious. Quick, helpful, and friendly service. It has a nice interior. Menu is like a cafe in Indianapolis I loved.

Food as delicious as the on in Little Italy San Diego. Definitely closer to us so we had to give it a try. Good service and hospitality. Definitely will be going back for more.

Filippi's has been a favorite of my whole family for over 20 years. The service is friendly and the food is awesome...large helpings and we always happily take it home for lunch the next day! We highly recommend this restaurant treasure!

If you want a unique cultural experience and incredible food this is your place! The downtown location is our favorite, although parking is a challenge, because the atmosphere is irreplaceable. You enter through the authentic Italian grocery and dine in the backroom. This is where it all began before they added an additional dining room, and the authenticity of the food comes through in the taste. Serving sizes are authentic too, you will leave full and likely with a doggie bag. My favorites are the sausage sandwich, lasagna, and their pizza. I have never been disappointed and have to force myself to try new dishes because I know how much I've enjoyed past dishes. Lines on the weekend can be a bit lengthy so be prepared to wait in line to be seated during prime times, it's worth the wait. Easily one of the best, and most affordable, places to dine in San Diego. You can't go wrong here.
