Unfortunately i had a terrible experience with this restaurants use of door dash dash yesterday. I made an error with the delivery address and once this was realized and corrected. The next steps still resulted in my money being taken my classroom of students never having the last day of class pizza party that was promised. The person I spoke with at the restaurant was helpful and compassionate, however www.slice aka door dash was comfortable take money for a service that was not delivered.

We took a colleague from Manhattan to Filippo’s and he said that it was the best pizza he ever had. Can’t argue with that!Dough and Sauce are made fresh on the premises.

I planned to meet my family here for some pizza after they'd been on a long day out. I walked in at around 7.40pm to be met with stares from a staff member. The place was completely empty and they were mopping the floor. I was concerned they might be closed so I asked if it was possible for 3 of us to dine in. The staff member looked horrified and said "when are the others coming". I said "they are on their way from the station" (a 5 minute walk away). The advertised closing time was 8.30pm so there was plenty of time. The staff member shrugged and said ok in the most unfriendly way imaginable.I sat down to wait for my family and felt really uncomfortable. The staff members completely ignored me. I get that it's counter service but I was literally the only person there, it might have been appropriate to offer me some water or just acknowledge my existence. When my family arrived I realised I couldn't subject them to the terrible atmosphere so we went elsewhere. I have no idea why this place would say it was open until 8.30pm but not actually welcome diners. A huge disappointment!Just to add, the doors are really stiff so not great for disabled people, and the booths are very narrow. They do have alternative seating with tables and chairs near the windows.

The best pizza parlor in New Brunswick, NJ. Went for my slice and soda. Always good. I use to go here all the time on Saturdays with my mom as a kid. They are still around after 30 years.

For a quick lunch in New Brunswick, Filippo's is hard to beat. The pizza is always solid and the seating is comfortable.

Without a doubt hands down the best pizza/ cheesesteak spot in NB. Always tasty.
I always get the white pizza with spinach. My favorite pizza joint so far, it's so good. Love the nostalgic feel of the small shop atmosphere and the familiarity of the same guy taking the orders every time. He puts out the aura of runnin a tight ship n making sure you'll be satisfied and keep coming back.

The owner of this restaurant is always a pleasure to interact with! He is friendly and funny! I always feel like a valued customer! The pizza is great and the prices are reasonable. I just found out that they offer a discount for cash payment. I can't possibly say enough good things about this restaurant and highly encourage all to visit!

Filippo's....what's all this chatter about? Lots of good reviews and who doesn't like a good slice? So I stroll down the hill, politely turn away two kids who tried to hit me up for cash as well as a lady meth-head who had less teeth than a one year old. Walk in the front door of this joint and it's right in your face, "Home of the largest pie in town". Behind the counter, all with similar scowls, are Vito, Salvatore, and Domenic...glaring at me like I better not bitch about the vig or it's in the Raritan River wearing concrete shoes for me. So I ask the old wise guy for a slice of cheese and a plate of spaghett, cuz Keto's on hold today. He doesn't take my money, tells me I'll pay later, which is code for "sit down and STFU". And let me tell ya, between Domenic's amount of hair on his Popeye sized forearms or the incredible look of disgust, like I'm his only son and let him down by not joining the Marines, I'm kinda scared. So I sit...and I wait. The younger guy, I'll call him Vito, brings my slice and a plate of pasta with a side loaf of bread, and again tells me I'll pay later. I couldn't help but inspect the slice for gray arm hairs that might have migrated off the old man's arms, seriously, I've seen primates with less hair on their arms. Seems to be all clear, so I dive in. The slice was a solid 8.5. Undercarriage was perfect, crust soft but crunchy, sauce and cheese the right proportion. And the grease rolled off that slice it made me look like a mallard swimming next to the Exxon Valdez. The pasta though? Over cooked noodles that broke when I put a good fork on 'em. The sauce was meant for the pies, not the pasta and if there is such a thing....too much melted mozzarella. So much that you feel like the only people that could chew and swallow that much Mozzarella also have solid careers on pornhub. Relax, I ain't judging. So I'll sum it up, these wise guys deliver a damn good pizza, and let's be honest, that's what their claim to fame is. Make sure you show the Godfather the respect he's earned when you order and you'll be rewarded with an excellent slice of pie, but only pizza people, listen to me, skip the pasta.

I recently swung by Filippo's Famous and grabbed a sausage and pepperoni slice on the go. The overall experience was decent, with quick service and an OK slice.One thing that stood out was the fast service. I was in and out in no time, which is great for those moments when you're on the run and craving a quick bite. The staff members were efficient and friendly, ensuring a smooth and convenient ordering process.As for the slice itself, it was alright. The sausage and pepperoni toppings were satisfactorily portioned and added a nice flavor to the pizza. However, I found the crust to be just average. It lacked the desired crispness and had a texture that was a bit doughy for my liking. While it was decent, it didn't have that wow factor.Considering the on-the-go nature of my visit, I didn't have high expectations. The slice served its purpose as a quick and filling snack, but it didn't leave a lasting impression.In terms of pricing, Filippo's Famous offers reasonable prices for their slices, making it a convenient option for a budget-friendly meal.While my experience with the sausage and pepperoni slice was okay, it's worth noting that Filippo's Famous offers a variety of other toppings and pizza options on their menu. So, there might be other flavors that could deliver a more memorable experience.To summarize, Filippo's Famous provided fast service and an okay sausage and pepperoni slice. It's a decent option when you're in a rush and need a quick pizza fix. However, if you're looking for exceptional flavor or a standout crust, you might want to explore other options.
Everybody keep saying pizza is great, but also they have great dinners and
