Yelp.com Review - by Matt S.

1.0 of 5 stars. This is the kind of pizza that uncultured people from Montana think is "genuine Eye-talian". That is quite fitting, as Escondido is a little bit Montana, a little bit Mexico and all bad taste.After...

Different than the rest

Great Food with large portions and friendly service! If you've gotten tired of the same old tasting pizza then give this restaurant a try. Make sure and make room in your refrigerator for left overs.

Best pizza around!

You simply cannot beat Fillippis for great pizza. This is not your ordinary pizza place. Great atmosphere and the food is superior. Try the lasagna and the meatball sub as well.

Fillippis by Andrea H. at InsiderPages
