" Filippi's is definitely a family favorite! We've been coming here for birthdays and special occasions for years. The atmosphere is relaxed, the portions are generous, and the food stays true to traditional Italian flavors. It's always a good experience and the desserts are worth saving room for! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here can be quite inconsistent. I visited last week and the pizza was soggy while the pasta was outstanding. I guess it depends on the day. Service is usually on point, but that day it felt rushed. Hoping for better next time as it’s a nice place overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a decent dinner here. The pizza is good but I found it a bit too oily for my liking. Service was friendly, and the staff were eager to help. Overall, an okay experience and I might return to try more menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I dine here, I’m reminded why I keep coming back. The family-style food is perfect for large groups, and everything is so delicious! The pizza had the perfect crust and generous toppings. They also make a great cannoli which is worth trying. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dined here for a special occasion and it did not disappoint! The family-style portions are generous giving you the chance to share a variety of dishes. We had the garlic knots, pizza, and lasagna, all absolutely delicious! The staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. The atmosphere felt perfect for a family dinner. I’d give them 10 stars if I could! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food with decent prices! I went in for a quick bite and ended up ordering more because it was that good! I tried their classic pepperoni pizza which was the best I’ve had, crust was crispy and cheese was gooey with herbs sprinkled perfectly. Service was speedy too! I’m definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was hoping for a better experience based on the mixed reviews I had read. My dish was bland, and there was a long wait for service. While my friends enjoyed their meals, I found my experience lacking. I might consider giving it another try in the future, but it's not at the top of my list. " (*Curated Review*)
