Filippi's Pizza Grotto Mission Valley

Wanted to try this place long time ago and just had lunch, unfortunately my worst pasta experience ever!
23$ for unflavored pasta 🍝 ! Dry, no sauce, and we had veggie pizza which was no flavor too.
Only thing our waitress lady was attentive. Otherwise food was not good 🥲

Alvin is so professional and inviting and the perfect person to great customers whether it be on the phone or in the lobby. Food is incredible and reasonable especially when they run family deals. We will be repeat customers for life!

Filippis is simply one of the best pizza places in San Diego. The food here was outstanding and our server was exceptional. Always a great experience when we go.

The pizza is excellent. Lots of cheese, and you can taste the freshness and feel the crispness of the vegetable toppings. I've not yet tried the other pasta dishes. Where Filippi's went wrong for us was with the service.
We waited, standing, for approximately 20-25 minutes for a table on a Wednesday evening. Apparently they were extremely short staffed. Once we were seated, we promptly gave our order to the gentlemen who seated us. He brought drinks, then maybe 10-15 minutes later brought us the incorrect pizza and left before we could tell him it wasn't what we ordered. We waited another 10 minutes or so for him to come back around and take the pizza away and put in our correct order. I will say that the correct order came up quickly, but by that time we were pretty disappointed with our visit to say the least. I do need to add that the server was extremely apologetic, and brought us antipasto at no charge, however we didn't want it and didn't eat it.
Overall our experience dining in was extremely poor. We're of the opinion that if they were that short staffed they should have closed the dining room for the evening and just concentrated on take out and delivery orders. As such, we will no longer dine in here. If we do order Filippi's again, it will strictly be take out only.

Get the antipasto salad. Literally, unless you are a vegeterian, get it. It was the best salad Ive ever had in my life and I LOVE salads!! This place is quaint and romantic. The servers are amazing. Ive never had a bad experience with them. The pizzas are so cheesy and not super loaded with sauce. The cheesy bread is very garlicy and yummy. The calzones are delicious. You cant go wrong with them. Big fan.

Wow great service and great atmosphere and some daily specials. Overall the food is very bland and has no seasonings or spicy what so ever not even the peppers are hot. I will not be eating here ever again. Very expensive for a tasteless pizza.
