    Great local new spot. Great pizza and wings. Service is always great when I come here. Great spot to have a pie for lunch or dinner. Take out service is quick and ready to go.

    Half cheese half Sizzling Pickle Pizza
    Mena P.

    I have found my new favorite pizza place in Santee! Taste, quality, cheese, dough, service: 10/10 I got a large half pickle half cheese pizza. The pickle pizza sounded interesting, I didn't think I'd like it but I love it! There is something satisfying about it and it just works. The cheese pizza is solid. Whatever blend of cheese they use is really good. I also like that the dough is fluffy and soft. Side note: don't sleep on the ranch

    Very good fresh pizza. Both guys were super friendly. We ate there and likely we were the only ones there. Would definitely visit again if I were in the area. We got a pepperoni half pineapple.

    This has become our go to when we have surprises visitors or multiple people to feed. Very friendly guys and it has a neighborhood feel. They are so accommodating, it's always a great experience. Oh and the pizza's not bad!

    Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wrap With 1 Can Soda

    Love trying new places and this place definitely hit ! Came here with my buddies and we shared the buffalo chicken lettuce wrap. So yummy and lite ! We ordered a supreme pizza and I had two slices, it was amazing loaded with pepperoni & sausage along with veggies. Next item I got was my favorite! The pickle pizza was so good I would come here twice a week to eat it. We finished off with spinach ricotta calzone and it was amazing too! The staff were amazing and the restaurant was clean which is always nice ! They also have a game inside where you can win free pizza & a pizza challenge at the restaurant to win $$$. Can't wait to go back!

    I ordered through door dash my lasagna was still hot! Wish it had more meat though. The tiramisu was delicious once it thawed it was still a bit frozen when i got it. Other than that my meal was pretty delicious

    Bbq chicken pizza is second to none And just tried the Alfredo special with chicken and you couldn't ask for a better pizza Never had Alfredo pizza before and it smacked better than the original dish We have also gotten the wings & even though they had a different smell to them, the taste is phenomenal and the amount of meat per wing is better than your best wing spot Definitely give this place a go if you haven't tried them out yet Ps! Don't forget to end your meal with a slice of cheesecake! Red velvet was a little sweet so I couldn't finish the whole slice but the original smacked and wanted seconds !

    Pickle Pizza

    I ordered the Sizzling Pizza's Pickle Pizza as delivery, so I haven't seen the building or have any input on the interior vibe or customer service. We split the large Pickle Pizza and sure enough, lots of thick, crunchy, tangy slices of dill pickles were covering the soft dough and glued on by lots of melted cheese. This is not for those who are wary of pickles... While I LOVE pickles, I think the Pizza could've been elevated with a creamy dill base sauce or something else to help add depth and complexity to each bite. If you have a dill or herby ranch, that will make an excellent addition. The Pizza was good and I'll definitely be back to try other pies!

    The Sizzling Pizza recently opened in Santee. I stopped in and was met by some friendly gents. I ordered the stromboli with sausage, pepperoni, and salami for $11.99. The stromboli was very good. They forgot to place the pepperoni inside, however, so they gave me a bottle of water. Next time, I told them. The crust of the stromboli was very good. After it comes out of the oven, they brush it with clarified butter and then sprinkle it with Parmesan cheese. They do put a lot of mozzarella cheese inside. The salami was good, and the sausage was of the common frozen variety, but good. The marinara dipping sauce was very tasty. The stromboli was of good size. The service was good. There was friendly small talk. The place offers some inside seating. They offer a variety of pizzas, lettuce wraps, wings, rib tips, salads, and a host of appetizers and such.

    Too good, we couldn't wait!!

    The food and service were excellent! 10/10 recommend. The pizza and caesar were exceptional and employees were super friendly/chill.

    The pizza here is delicious. The pizza sauce is standout. We also had wings, which my husband says are great. We'll be back for sure.

The new signs were being installed over the weekend. Appears to be a different concept, same ownership. In the meantime, we ordered takeout for pick-up.

Caesar Salad (Large) Organic romaine, parmesan croutons, shaved Romano cheese. $16.95 Medium Hawaiian Canadian bacon, pineapple and mozzarella $22.50 Medium Double Deluxe Pepperoni, salami, sausage, mushroom, onion, black olives, bell pepper no anchovies, no onions $27.50 Large Sicilian Pepperoni pepperoni on top, fresh basil, light fresh mozzarella on thin crust $28.75 The Hawaiian was easily the most popular. Everyone devoured it. We should've gotten a large. Becky and I always seem to get the Sicilian and once again, it was spot-on. The bell pepper was a bit overpowering on the Dbl Deluxe. Next time I'd get the Meat Lovers instead. The salad was fresh and refreshing. We did ask for and receive extra dressing which we definitely needed. For 11 of us, it was plenty of food.

I felt completely comfortable. Of course you'll always have the Chianti bottles hanging everywhere at a Filippi's, along with the red and white tablecloths. I always get lasagna and this time I got it with meat ravioli and a meatball on the side. All of it was delicious, but the lasagna steals the show for me every time. Best lasagna on the planet. I love ricotta lol. And their meat sauce is so good. The meatball was giant and perfect. Exactly what I've come to expect from this establishment. The chicken parm was immense. I could not believe the size of this thing. AND it was amazing. Just enormous. Thank you. Leftovers! Yessss!

    Yesterday I went to Filippi's Santee. Around 4:00 and ordered my usual Lasagna w/meat sauce. The…read moreorder came out lukewarm and the lasagna didn't taste like it usually does. (I've been coming to Filippi's since 1964 at India Street, now live in La Mesa so have been going for at least 30 years to the Santee location. Never a problem until yesterday. The lasagna I think did not have the meat sauce, I don't know, but it was not the same in taste or color of the sauce I usually have. I ate less than half and took it home to do something to make it better at my home. Then I thought, I just paid $20 for something that was lukewarm and didn't taste as it has so today I called and asked to speak to the manager (YURELI). No help and said nothing she could do. Period. It was yesterday and I didn't say anything to the waitress yesterday, which I would have except I've heard stories that when people send things back to the kitchen, sometimes they spit in it and then return it to the customer. Not saying that would have happened here, but you never know. I asked for the owner (MICHELLE) to give me a call about this. All I asked for is to return the more-than-half of the order to them and receive the same amount with meat sauce and I would be happy. She refused. Apparently, Filippi's in Santee doesn't care, at least this manager doesn't. It wouldn't take much effort to provide me 1/2 order of the lasagna with meat sauce and if they do not rectify this for me, I will never go to Filippi's again b/c they obviously have enough customers and don't care. BTW my server was very nice ... tall woman with a blonde braided pony tail. If I receive an agreeable resolution to my simple request from Michelle, I will take this down and continue to patronize the Santee location.
