    Pepperoni pizza, medium

    Have been ordering pizza takeout from the Imperial Beach location for about 8 months. The pizza is always tasty and ready on time, the owner is friendly, and it is a great value. The Mexican pizza is a family favorite - spicy flavored just as you'd expect.

    Best pizza spot in San Diego, amazing flavor, authentic and amazing quality pizza. All family owned!! So best believe it's incredible. Highly recommend!!

    Make sure you ask the wash his hands before he touches your food.

    Just got into town and wanted to grab some pizza saw hot and tasty sign and thought I'd give it a try. I walked in and I wasn't even greeted. The man said what do you want me doing are welcome into the store that was the first thing. Then he rushed me. I wanted it I was looking at the menu, I tried to see if if he sold slices he said no with an attitude so I asked what about personal pizzas and he wouldn't show me the sizes. He just said yes another customer came in knew what he wanted so I thought I asked the other customer for my first time coming to this restaurant I want to spend some money but the way that he treated me I felt I'd rather go somewhere else and spend money. So I would say to anyone who passes by this hot tasty pizza don't even spend your money it's not worth it the customer service is not there at all, I repeat the customer service is not there at all. And to a cherry on top I was here in the pizza place for about 20 minutes and did not see the cook was his hands not once. He was touching his phone. His hands were in his pocket while touching customers pizza. Not to me that doesn't seem sanitary.

    Menu! Gotta try the Mexican Pizza

    I had this pizza a few years ago with my bf when he lived down here and havent forgotten it! We picked up a large jalapeno pepperoni pizza for only ~$7. It was so good! The dough looks thick but it's all air so it's super crispy on the bottom and soft and airy throughout. They put a good amount of sauce and cheese but could use some more toppings. For the price though, you cant beat it.

    Staying in and just popping in a movie rental? Not in the mood to cook..? Or if you are hungry but on a budget.... TASTY PIZZA is a little hole in the wall pizza shop in between yum yum donuts and Albertsons. You can get a large one topping pizza for only $FIVE BUCKS$. Had a typical pepperoni pizza and it was just like there name of the business...TASTY! The quality isn't the greatest, but for a simple person like me... if you give me $5 pizza, hot sauce/peppers, a dvd movie, and a blanket with the a/c blasting - I'M STRAIGHT xD

The wait time was reasonable and it wasn't too crazy after 8 PM. They don't have very much parking in the lot but we got lucky and found a spot near the back. The hostess and servers were all very pleasant and accommodating. The food was served promptly which was appreciated since we didn't have lunch at the convention. My son ordered the eggplant parmigiana dinner which came with a side of cheese ravioli. He had nothing but positive things to say about it. My wife and I split a sausage and mushroom pizza. It came out piping hot with a nice thick layer of gooey cheese. Just the way I like it. It was very good but not quite as good as I remembered. Still, I consider it a very good pizza. Just not mind blowing. Filippi's has been around for a very long time and a trip to San Diego is never complete without a stop here. If you've never been, you have to try it at least once.

The spinach raviolis were excellent--flavorful, perfectly cooked, and definitely the highlight of my meal. Unfortunately, the veal was a major disappointment. It was extremely tough and difficult to cut and chew. I ended up leaving almost the entire entrée on my plate because I simply couldn't enjoy it. My husband and I both commented that it didn't have the tenderness or delicate texture we normally associate with veal. True veal should be tender, fine-grained, and easy to cut with a fork, but this was quite the opposite. Based on this experience, I would not order another meat entrée from this restaurant. It's unfortunate because the ravioli showed that the kitchen is capable of preparing excellent food. I hope the restaurant will review the quality of the meat it serves, as it made an otherwise pleasant visit very disappointing.

We were given waters very quickly. But then nothing for a long time. The server did show up and seemed as if we had bothered him in some way. But okay we will be polite and chalk it up to bad day. We order and then that is the last we see of him. I ordered linguine with clams, mussels, and shrimp while it was delicious I was not offered a plate or bowl for the shells. My partner was not offered cheese for his pasta. The manager was mulling about the host stand and looked right at us several times after I had finished my cocktail with no acknowledgement or offer for me to order another drink. So while the food was good the service defiantly left something to be desired. I will say that the server for the table next to us (Melanie/Melody?) seemed lovely and happy to be at work with her table.

    This place was absolutely amazing. To start off with the most important part, the food. We began…read morethe meal with the mini fried calzones with mozzarella and tomato sauce inside and they were great. You could tell the bread was super fresh and high quality so I would recommend it. Next, we got a glass of prosecco. I told the waiter that I only like wine that tastes much more sweet then bitter or strong and he made a perfect suggestion along with giving us a sampler of 3 different wines which was so generous. I got to try them all and pick the one I liked the most, but even the samples were a generous size. For main course I got one of the current options for the cheese wheel pasta they make in front of you in cacio e pepe and my husband got the formaggi pizza with truffle mushrooms. My husband absolutely loved his pizza and the crust was one of the best he's ever had. My pasta was fresh and had a ton of sauce and cream so they didn't skimp at all. I could tell easily that they use very high quality Parmesan because i'm a Parmesan connoisseur and could taste how potent it was. They let me have as much extra as I wanted on without limiting since I enjoy a lot on it which was also a plus in my book. Next time I would get a pasta that's a little lighter, because it was a more heavy dish and it tends to make me feel pretty full after which is totally a me thing, but they have so much on the menu to try that I'm sure I'll love whatever I get even more next time. Lastly, dessert. We got a regular tiramisu and it was absolutely amazing. They put a ton of cream which is exactly what I look for. It wasn't too espresso or cocoa strong and had a perfect ratio. The cream was so light and fluffy that we had to get another one to bring home and eat tomorrow night! I had seen a previous review on here about someone not liking the tiramisu here and it not meeting their expectations for a more upscale Italian place but I've been to quite a few authentic Italian gems and this one had tiramisu up there so I'd have to disagree and completely recommend! The service was impeccable. Every waiter was kind and prompt, constantly making sure we were taken care of and getting what we needed. The atmosphere was also a plus for us because we have a 1 year old baby and there was enough room where we weren't too cramped or crowded in, and it wasn't too loud or overstimulating. The place was very clean and taken care of as well as the bathrooms. All in all, I loved this place and I will be coming back. I would definitely recommend Monello for a nice little date night, and don't forget the tiramisu.

It was a Friday evening and every restaurant on the street was full and vibrant. You could Yelp these places all day long and it would be hard to choose. There's so many great restaurants around Little Italy. Mimmo's reached out and called us in. There were pretty white tablecloths, the hostess was smiling ready to answer any questions and of course, the menu looked wonderful. Voilà! We'd found our spot. Our waiter was so personable and had all the answers to our inquiries. He suggested items and even answered honestly when needed. I got a Le Pécora Nera Sangria (fizzy blackberry with lemon). Tasty, but too many blackberry seeds coming up the straw. I'd get another one next time. For the appetizers: RISOTTO ARANCINI (a MUST get) - these were absolutely delicious. Four good size bread crumbed fried balls of risotto sitting in the restaurant's own tomato gravy. HOMEMADE FOCACCIA WITH DIPPING OIL (yes, that's the official name) - this is a basket of super soft, warm focaccia bread for a great price. I would get it no matter what main course you're getting! It soaks up every sauce and it's just delicious. MAIN: BAKED LASAGNA (meat) - with the two appetizers this is the perfect size for both of us. No need to get one per person! It was absolutely wonderful. I would get it again. All in all, I'd definitely go back. The food was absolutely delicious and flavorful and the employees we came in contact with were great as well. We didn't want to sit at a table right next to the hundreds of people walking by, I don't like that, but there are plenty other options one row in or inside the restaurant.

It's right in the heart of Little Italy on India Street in between all of the other wonderful Italian restaurants. When we walked up. They have patio seating as well as inside dining. We decided to do inside dining as it was starting to get chilly outside. We were immediately seated by a wonderful hostess, and that made a positive impression upon us. The whole hostess staff had great smiles on their faces and they were very welcoming. After about two minutes of sitting down, our server came to ask us if we needed time to look over the menu. We said yes but that we wanted a Foccacia Bread table starter. She smiled and immediately went to put the order in. A few few minutes later she came back and we ordered our drinks for dinner: Raspberry Italian Soda, Orange Crush with Fresh Cream on top, and a non-alcoholic spritz. After we got our drinks and sip on them, it took us a bit of time to decide what we wanted. We all know that the burger here is fantastic! However, this evening, we decided to try new things. We ordered: Pappardelle Bolognese with Added Meatballs, Pappardelle Bolognese as it is normally prepared, and a Caesar salad with shrimp added. Our food was out within about 10 to 15 minutes and everything was prepared perfectly. I have to say that we really enjoyed dining in this location and we may need to come back here more instead of traveling to the Del Mar location sometimes. Our server was super customer service oriented and we appreciated her. She went above and beyond to get the orange crush drink to be unique like an Italian soda for my daughter. We were super stuffed and could not do dessert, but we did promise to come back to enjoy the lava cake at a future time. Overall, this was an excellent visit and we appreciate the staff in the great energy that we received at this location. I do highly recommend it.
