Filippi's Pizza Grotto Imperial Beach

the best pizza in california is imperial beach, carestaurant!orders is always right and food quality is very good!i have had a great experience in 2024 and will never forget the kindness and quality food andfriendly atmosphere!good parking lot was acceptable!great staff!

Enjoy coming here vs CV one. Pizza is better as well as antipasto. Service is was good. Packed house tonight hereTonight ordered small antipasto salad and lasagna and shared with wife. More than enough food.

I've eaten at two other locations and this one is my favorite. My family comes here often and the many times I've eaten here, have all been pleasant experiences. The food, service, and ambiance is exceptional. The prices are reasonable, the food is fresh, and the staff is friendly. There is a parking lot and street parking available. I have tried many food items, such as ravioli, manicotti, fettuccine Alfredo, spaghetti, lasagna, pizza, sandwiches, bread, antipasto salad. All had great flavor, large portions, and filling. There are many menu items and large enough to share. There are desserts, alcohol/wine, drinks available. The place is on the older side, but it is clean, and gives a home style vibe. The servers are very attentive, and hard working. Laura is hard working, fast, and constantly attends to our needs. Great Italian food place and worth trying. =)

Food was good and service was quick and friendly . Nice to have this place within walking distance from home .

Order was delivered. Food was okay. Nothing to call home about. Everything tasted the same. Spaghetti, lasagna, ravioli in same sauce just different textures. Antipasto salad was ok. It's the first time the ingredients weren't chopped up. That's how other places serve this salad. I took out cutting board and knife to chop it up On Uber eats this restaurant does not provide a menu list of drinks when ordering. The bread was warm but don't expect butter to come with it cause there was none. It's just a long plain French bread. Portions were fair.

We called our order in: Hawaiian pizza and wings. The hostess that answered was extremely friendly. Our food was ready when they said it would be ready. They had their usual Italian Music playing in the background which always adds to the experience of eating here. Everyone that we spoke to while we waited in line to get our food was just as friendly as the hostess over the phone! Our food did not disappoint and it was more than enough for two people.

This is your hole in the wall pizza joint. The pizza is made to order, and feels very homemade. Now that being said the cheese layer was a little thick for our liking, but if you like 80% cheese and 20% anything else then this is the place to go. The marinara sauce tasted homemade and was delicious! And the crust was pretty good too! The service staff was very nice and the whole place gave off good vibes. Definitely going back to try the meatball sub, I regret not tasting it first.

Location to location varies quite a bit from "okay" to "poor". Used to be a bargain spot where you could get dependably good food for a fair price. Not so much anymore.

Awesome food always! Great customer service! To dine in is amazing too ! Wow ! Chicken Parmesan is soo good!

Well I feel guilty adding a review of this Filippi's restaurant why you ask ?? Well I will tell you why . My daughter worked at this one while she was going through college but in all honesty this Filippi's is the best one hands down out of all of them. A little history,first all the Filippi's are family owned. Not all the family run's their restaurant the same.The food at this one in Imperial Beach in my opinion is the tastiest.The service is top notch.My favs are antipasto salad with their red wine vinaigrette dressing,med pizza thin crust with black olives,sausage and mushrooms.Trust me you can't go wrong!! Also for dessert try La Bomba !! Spumoni ice cream covered in hard shell chocolate!! Yum yum yummy!!
