Filippo's - Oakland

A gem! Happened upon Filippo’s for a late lunch/early dinner after the tony Italian restaurant across the street refused to seat us despite having called for a reservation. We had a group of six and sampled many of the small plates: burrata, mussels, brussel sprouts, shishito peppers. Tasty well priced local wines on the daily menu. I enjoyed the porcini mushroom/black truffle entree which was one of the day’s specials. Ended with tiramisu, panna cotta, teas and cappuccinos. Good service and great prices. They even have a covered, heated patio which is open for dinner. Definitely will return when in the area.

This is a fantastic restaurant! Delicious food, portions are good, prices reasonable and the service was great. We will definitely return!

Amazing food and the house wine is very good too. The service was great, everyone was very friendly.

Great food and the endless wine is worth the price.

During covid I kept my rings crossed for this gem to stay open, so happy it did and want people to treat there self to a delish meal. I have loved this restaurant since I was a teen and followed them from 3 locations. The food never fails it is always so delicious and the staff is still give tip of the line hospitality and smiling (with there eyes now due to the covid safety mask). They have outdoor seating due to covid and have the tables spaced out. The food was absolutely amazing and it was chilly out so the heaters above each table are so wonderful. Also the owner took extra steps to insure customers safety during covid and have packages salt and pepper packets and compostsable water cups and out table was cleaned and prepped when we were seated. Everything I have ordered from this place is so yummy and they have vegetarian dishes on the menu also for when I don’t feel like eating meet. I work not to far at times I'm so busy I'm thrilled they also have delivery through caviar if you don't feel comfortable (covid) going out yet then order a meal delivered you will be so happy you did. Please help support hard working small businesses at this time so they can stay around a few of my favorite dishes
