Filippi's Pizza Grotto Little Italy

M mm mmm good

Ordered pizza thin crust. Taste was great but failed the stiff crust test. This on you pizza makers. 12 inch pie takes slightly less than one ladle of sauce. Put a little less cheese in the middle. Then the crust stays flat when you pick it up. Otherwise , you pick up the piece and all the toppings fall on the plate.

Confused about all the high ratings. The chicken alfredo did not have a single grain of salt. I'm not exaggerating; I haven't tasted pasta so bland in my life. Then the cream inside the cannoli was curdled. Weirdest texture.
I could tolerate the pizza but there was so much cheese??? I didn't order extra cheese so I'm not sure if this is just how much the regular amount is but it's ridiculous.
Anyway this was a pretty unpleasant experience, especially because it seemed like it would be good.

Im.a bit biased. My family had been friends with Rich and his first wife Sally for decades. At one point, we'd come down from the PNW just to visit with the couple and their children .. always stopping in at the Market side first, before grabbing a few pies, and then heading out for some cooling off at their place. Families get older and children grow up, so after I married 30 plus years ago, I'd bring my hubby here for a few meals before we head back towards home. It's a great place to eat, and in true Italiano style, the conversations can sometimes get a bit loud, but you always leave feeling like you're part of a bigger family than your own.

Totally amazing atmosphere, service, food. A+++.

Wow, this place hasn't changed in decades. Great service, great food, and great company! Spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread, and antipasto salad were all top notch. The waitress was very attentive and kind.

We ordered a vegetarian pizza. It was good. We had a rude waitress who put the check on the table literally a few minutes after the food was served, and 2 mins later she came to ask how we would like to pay! I have never seen any restaurant where u have to pay in the middle of eating your meal! I am not sure what her problem was! If you could avoid her, I am sure you will have a better experience!

There was a missing order, and the server didn't even realize it until we asked for a check. The server didn't check up on us once. The food was okay, but I don't know if it's worth 30 minutes of waiting.

I don't speak English, very bad attention from the person who welcomed me, like the waitress. I didn't want to stay to eat because I was so uncomfortable, I just had a glass of wine and left. Additionally, they sat me at a table that had no signal!! Not even being able to open the translator. They recommended the food to me, but because of the attention I wouldn't go back.

The food is fantastic, but Miss Irene is the reason we keep coming back! She is a national treasure at your establishment. As long as you have her, we will keep coming back!! ?
