“First time here and it was so amazingly delicious! Service was friendly and extremely fast! Clean and homey environment. Everything was so fresh and the portions were fabulous! Price was also reasonable. We ordered the Crispy Chicken Wings (the orange sauce that it came with was so good), House Combo Rice Vermicelli with egg rolls, House Combo with white rice and veggies, and a Taro smoothie with boba. Everything was 5/5. Highly recommended!“

“This place is hoppin! Monday nights are a great night to come here and learn to line dance, or just watch all the beautiful people line dance. The crowd was mixed with young people and their parents ( I think) I know I look like someone's parent. My kid would never be seen with me here, but anyway. I had an imperial stout and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. I used to be a stout/porter/dark beer girl. Ok, I was a beer babe back in the day. But nowadays, I only drink tequila or seltzers for the carb savings. On this Monday, I chose to break my new pattern and enjoy one of my old favorites. The Imperial stout had good carbonation, was full flavored but not over powering or bitter. It was excellent if I might say. I saw that they have events every night of the week, and this place is very popular, trendy, and happening for a SANTEE establishment.“

“Perfect spot to take my son after his NFL flag football game at the sportsplex. First time eating here. Didn't know what to order but the woman who helped me was very sweet. She helped me pick out food and was patient with my son's request. Place was clean and started getting busy as we sat down. We waited for our take out. Food came out quickly. My son got a kids burger meal. It was a really large burger and he loved the fries so much he ate them first and wasn't able to finish everything. I got the Kanak attack loco moco she recommended. It has a little of everything. Amazingly tasty. The sausage and spam are what they are.... The burger patty was delicious and the eggs cook perfectly. The pork and the gravy were the real stars of this dish. The gravy can ruin a loco moco for me. This place is doing it right. The pork was so flavorful I went for it all after the first bite. There was so much I wasnt able to finish it all. I also got 2 orders of garlic spam masubi. I was full but still took a bite and loved it. Again, the staff great, food great, and wait time great. My girls came home and ate all the left overs and said we have to go back. Almost forgot the shaved ice my son got... see photo ... it started about the same size as his head!“

“Always excellent! Food, service & atmosphere! Menu items I would recommend are the Fit for a King Pizza, garlic cheese bread w/side of red sauce, Minestrone soup, salad w/house Italian dressing (so good!) & bread, Lasagna w/Meatball, or just a meatball (if you are avoiding carbs), the meatballs are huge! I also like the family meal deal that includes soup, bread, lasagna, spaghetti w/meatball & raviolis... It's a whole lotta food! They have a full bar, they make good mixed drinks, they have an extensive wine list & I hear that their Sangrias are delish! The atmosphere I would describe as warm & cozy. There are Italian wine bottles hanging from the ceiling, lighting is dim & it's a perfect place for a date, or big family gathering. Most of the time seating is right away, but expect there may be a little bit of a wait on Friday & Saturday nights. I would suggest getting there a little bit earlier, around 5pm to try & beat the crowd on those nights. I highly recommend this location of Filippi's!Vegetarian options: Veggie Pizza, Cheese Pizza, soup & salad, spaghetti w/marinara, maybe more.Parking: Ample Parking. Disability spots, disabled friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely can accommodate wheelchairs, from the handicap parking spots to the entrance & seating inside.“

“I had heard about Soriana's and considering how many taco shops we gave in Santee, I was curious how this one compared. So I ordered Carne Asada chips and a carnitas taco. Food 5 stars- chips were crispy and fresh, serving size was pretty big, carnitas was the perfect blend of crispy and soft. Both items were freshly prepared and flavorful with presentation in actual dishes- plate and bowl. Service 5 Stars - after placing my order I sat to wait and considering this is a taco shop I was surprised when my order was brought to my table not just called from the counter. Atmosphere was typical decor for a taco shop. Along with a moderate amount of seating for large or small groups. TV was on but at a reasonable level of volume. The tables, floors and countertops were all clean. Self serve soda station, refills don't include Agua frescas- that's customary. I didn't take a bunch of pics because there were other customers. I tried to find something wrong but all was 5 star. The counter at the soda station has a repair but that didn't affect my visit-the flaws were only cosmetic. I will eat here again.Parking: Location is in a shopping center with open / free parking. Plenty of spots to choose from.Kid-friendliness: Menu options seem to be kid friendly and modifications can be made - ie: no Pico“

They took our order with 10-20 mins to close. Come on, it doesn't get better than that. Carne asada Chips were great, from what I recall. So were the roll tacos. Next time, we'll have to stop by before the game for an update. Thank you Cazadores.“
