Our Guestbook
“ I ordered a pasta with baked mozzarella cheese and meat sauce. The cheese was INCREDIBLE. Easily the dish’s highlight. Texture and taste was extremely high quality. The meat sauce was quite misleading though; my dish did not have much, if any, meat. Just sauce (but really good sauce). Friendly staff! Will be returning. Returned for a second time dine in and I loved it even more. Great and friendly staff, delicious food. ”
“ Great place for great pizza, sub, canzone, meatballs, and great drinks. Service is always great friendly staff. ”
“ Mondays are not busy. Our server Antonio (?) was so attentive. He brought out some kind of herb focaccia bread with butter. The minestrone soup was full of veggies and beans. The Parmesan chicken was good, the spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs was great, and the pizza was quick. ”
“ I had the lasagna with meat sauce and it was really good! The portion was generous, fresh and hot! They have a dining area and also a smaller area with a bar with a couple of TVs. Overall I enjoyed my meal and the service! ”
“ Ordered takeout online from Filippi’s website and was very convenient to pick up 30 minutes later. We got a large white pizza and the calamari and both were tasty. The service was very nice and the pick up was smooth. Nice interior to the restaurant with holiday decorations. Recommend if you’re looking for Italian food! ”
“ This place was so good, my in-laws and family have been talking about it since they visited California 15 years ago. Finally were able to have it, and the hype was real! The pizza is so good! Best I've had! Its probably good we don't live closer, or I'd be there every week ”
“ What An amazing customer Service. Pizza Cheff made a mistake on my pizza and staff fixed it right away. Derrick is amazing, he’s on top of everything. We’ll definitely come to this location. So far our favorite. We are huge Filippis fans and We Know! ”
“ I've been coming to Filippis in Kearny Mesa for 40 years now. It's still the best pizza I've ever had. I've had pizza in Naples, Chicago, New York, and Detroit, it's still the best. I wish they still had the old decor with the fake grapes and wine bottles hanging from the lattice, but you got to modernize and expand. ”
