Old school Italian restaurant that was kind enough to accommodate our last-minute party of 20 after my cousin's funeral service. The server was so efficient with our drink and meal orders. I had an entrée, but I really want to go back and try the pizzas, they looked amazing! They also have a room in the back if you're looking for private event space or a large party accommodation. I loved my visit at this restaurant! read more

Filippo's was a solid choice for pizza. We started with the garlic bread, and our server offered a cup of red sauce on the side, which was a great touch and really delicious. We ordered pizza with the house crust, which is hearty and filling. The toppings were generous but wish the cheese went to the edge all around. The sausage had great flavor. Service was friendly and attentive, with our drinks kept full throughout the meal. The restaurant has a cozy, old school Italian feel. Overall, a good experience and we will return. read more

To be fair we went on Father's Day. Having said that I would not go back even on a slower day. My spedinii was tough and my daughter's manicotti was meh. While I can understand a kitchen being slow I don't think it should take 90 minutes to be served the entrees. Service was okay but could have been better in communication about the delays. read more

Server was good. Sat down right away, got our food quickly, and got a lot of food. Had a ton of leftovers. Tastes great, soup is good, salad is good. We don't have anything bad to say. Keep rocking! read more

I have been eating Filippo's pizza since the 70s when their first location was on Beecher Street. It is still my favorite pizza. I've tried a lot of different pizzas in my life, and I always come back to Filippo's. We usually order over the phone and come to pick up. But service is always been good when we've eaten inside. The ambience is your basic Italian decor. I am a fan for life. read more

Had the spaghetti and meatballs. Live this place. It's sure great to know that I can get a good sauce and meatballs like I make, and my recipe comes from a lady that came over here from Sicily! Last time had their fantastic chicken parm, it was out of this world! People that work there are so nice too. read more

I've tried several different dishes in the past. All were very good. Their pizzas are very good too.

Picked up an order today...this is usually the best pizza but today the consistency was disappointing . We ordered the house crust pizza and it was really thick this time, and lacking cheese. Drinks are delish while waiting for the pizza. Will try again. read more

Classic southsider type pizza similar to Mr. D's. Mr. D's will always come in first place, but this is a close second place. (For thicker crust only...Maria's will always have my heart) Not a fan of the sides as much, but I only go for the pizza! Garlic bread is the only side I get from here, and it's pretty yummy. Pizza is great. read more

The food was good but the place itself has seen better days. Our waiter was a bit over the top. He was distracting

Always ordered our favorite pasta here since my fiance brought me here when we started dating. Always love the delicious pastas.

Ordered a pizza for carryout after reading good reviews. It was hot and ready when promised. I always know the pizza will be good when it's put in a paper pizza bag. Plenty of toppings went all the way to the edge, and dough was tasty. Would order again! read more

If I had to sum up my experience at Filippos in 1 sentence it would be "bang for your buck casual Italian dining with high quality service" We chose Filippos as our valentine day celebration meal. My aunt had trouble calling ahead for reservations but when I called they answered straight away and were very accommodating. The restaurant was a little less than half full on this Wednesday/Valentines day. They were a great restaurant to take a little toddler too, they had so much fun with our two year old and did not seem bothered whatsoever, a true family friendly restaurant. Everyone enjoyed our four course meal. We started out with bread, they brought plenty, some garlic and some plain. Next course was a minestrone that was quite tasty. Everyone's meals came with salad next which was a basic house salad with iceberg lettuce. Next came our huge portion dinners. Not one of us had anything to complain about. The food was so tasty. I ordered the chicken Alfredo but tried the primavera and was obsessed, will definitely be ordering that on my next visit. The chicken cordon bleu is coated with mushrooms so beware it's not just on the side. We ended our night with a cannoli and tiramisu, the perfect ending to a great meal. Our server was so patient with us as we were cackling while ordering. She was very attentive and the food was speedy. Filippos gives the vibes of a family owned no frills business that I'm drawn to. A new west allis staple for me We all left so full and everyone had leftovers. read more

Food and service is always great. We love dining at this cozy restaurant. We're also thankful that they offer vegetarian options. Excellent eggplant parmesan! My husband loved their cheese garlic bread. Give it a try. read more

Food was excellent, but the garlic bread was barely cooked! when I called to make a reservation, the lady I spoke with was rude about it being out of their policy to make it for the same day. They were able to do it since it was for later in the evening but when we arrived there was 3 other parties and A LOT of open tables. They don't have a drink/ cocktail menu and the server was short and rude with us. Probably will not return there. read more

First time ever here. Fantastic pizza, the cheese just wouldn't stop stretching, and was there a competition to see how many toppings you could put on a 14 inch pizza and still cook it right? Fantastic service.on top of it. Ask for Mekenzie. read more

First time here. We went with a classic order to serve as our barometer: pizza and garlic bread. We ordered our pizza with thin crust - it was out standing. Cooked perfectly, golden and crispy. It completely help up to the toppings. The sauce can be one of those things that makes or breaks a pie but you don't always realize that's the component that changed it all...this sauce was exactly the way we like it. Savory, with just a pinch of heat. Sweet sauce kills pizza for me so I was thrilled that this was so balanced. Just delicious. I will say the sauce was plentiful so I may ask for light sauce next time around but that's on me not the restaurant. The rest of the toppings: pepperoni =slightly smoky with a hint of heat; italian sausage =classic fennel bulk sausage in nice pinched chunks; cheese tasted like a mozzarella and provolone blend but I can't be sure...all I know if that it was good and had great pull. Onions=a nice small dice. On half we also had black olives- standard. The garlic cheese bread was outstanding. A thicker slice of bread with just the right amount of garlic and cheese. Service was fantastic. Lots of family working there and everyone was friendly. The interior is casual and well loved. We'll definitely be back to try a few more things. read more

Great puzza aknd garlic bread. Delivery fee is kind of high wlhich hurts the drivers tip.

Love the lasagna!!! Service was awesome!! I would recommend! Excellent Italian food!!

Takes too long to get your food Especially if it's a weekend. They consider an hour or more "normal"

Carry out woman was amazing and knows how to treat customers! Food was amazing also! The pizza was worth any wait I did have and enjoyed the atmosphere! read more

My husband grew up in West Allis and had great memories of Filippo's so we headed over on a Saturday evening. It was not crowded and we were seated right away. We ordered the calamari and salads with our chosen pasta dishes. There was certainly A LOT of food. However, the flavor just wasn't there. The meat sauce was missing some zip to it, a little on the sweet side for me. The wait staff was pleasant and attentive and the prices are reasonable, it just wasn't a very memorable meal. My husband admitted that either his palette has evolved or the quality of the restaurant has declined. If you are looking for a large reasonably priced meal that is a bit on the bland side Filippo's will be a winner for you. read more

The pizza is excellent. I love the pizza. It is always clean. The service is always very prompt. Our pizza is always ready to go. No problems with this place at all. I suggest everyone try it. read more

Pizza was ok, nothing special, got the veggie combo appetizer, took me 5 minutes to get home and the appetizer was soggy, definitely not worth the $16 they charge for it. Pizza was pricey too. Cataro's and Happy Tap are both nearby and much better. read more

Service, food and pricing- all out standing, dinners include huge bread basket with soup and salad-

Stopped in after a 25 year absence. Pizza is still amazing. Decor and atmosphere, not so much. Bright lights and zero ambiance. If you're looking for something romantic, forget it. If you're looking for great pizza, this is a definite. Lots of cheese and toppings. Great Italian sausage and crispy pepperoni which we love. Service was okay. Wine was terrible. Pizza . . . Still amazing! read more

Long time customer noticed change in the taste of our pizza tonight. Not sure if it was the sauce or sausage but not happy with the change. I still enjoyed it but I highly recommend you going back to what ever it is you changed. I've been loyal for 20+ years for a reason and would like to continue giving you our business. read more

Great service and lots of vegetarian options. Would definitely visit next time I'm in the area.

The eggplant was cooked to perfection with homemade marinara and lemons. Very delicious. My husband and I split a flippos deluxe pizza. There was so many toppings! We ordered the thin crust and it was so tasty and so was the sauce. Amanda was our server and did a wonderful job. Constantly asking us if we needed anything and very friendly. Will definitely come back read more

Had dinner at Filippo's with my manager. The service was great and staffs were friendly. She ordered pizza and I had the jumbo shells. Both dish hit the spot! The atmosphere was very family friendly.

WOW WOW Do you like getting your moneys worth, Do you have a large appetite and do you like meatball sandwich's, if you said yes to this than this is the place to go. I have driven past this place since I moved to Milwaukee but with no real picture presence on yelp I have never stopped by even though I have thought about them many many times and the crappy lunch hours. I was going to a different restaurant and saw them so Im like just stop and finally get something. I had a sandwich crave for a while but chains would not do because I wanted something a little more so I ordered the meatball sandwich for $9.65, a few dollars more than a chain for an authentic one which I have no problem with. The kid brings me two bags that seemed weighty so I ask, are you sure this is my order and he said yes it is so off I went. When I opened the bags I had a salad, huge meatball sandwich and a pile of steak frys. Yes I was curious so I weighed the sandwich and frys plate, 2.16 pounds in this huge plate of food with out the salad. The salad dressing was Kens dressing which I buy but the salad was just salad and two cherry tomatoes so nothing special but a nice touch. The steak frys were not seasoned but I salted them, golden good and my favorite style of frys so that's good. The meatball sandwich was the biggest I have ever had with plenty of meatballs jammed into it. The meatballs were tasty, not the all beef kind that I dislike and despise. The bread was that fresh sesame seed with the slight chew crust that I like. When you put the meatballs, bread, sauce and the melted mozzarella cheese together you have a tasty sandwich going on here, I forgot to ask for on garlic bread which would have made it perfect, dam me you dumb ass. Was it the best meatball, probably not but it was way better than any chain and really hit the spot. WOW that was bang for the buck and good for $10 to my surprise. You cam spend $10 at a chain for a similar meal or just get the real deal here with twice the amount of food. I'm definitely going to try another sandwich here because I was pleasantly surprised today. read more

Great food and amazing service. It's a great local spot that has the best Italian food in MKE.

I love this place. Best pizza in Milwaukee. The garlic bread and garlic cheese bread has fallen off. It comes with little to no garlic and or butter. I stopped ordering. You cannot go wrong with the pizza or spaghetti though read more

Our server Amy just did not care and our service was so bad. She never came to check on us and would barely even look at us. She brought us the wrong food and said if we didn't like it then she would switch it and then never even came back to ask if we even liked it? The food overall was great per usual though. read more
