Editorial Review for Filippis Pizza Grotto – by Erin Chambers
In Short
From the red checkered table cloths to the hundreds of chianti bottles strung from the ceiling, this pizza grotto is a classic experince in Italian-American dining. After more than 50 years in business, people still come in droves to wait in line for a table and slice of what is routinely voted the best pie in the city. Also popular are the macaroni and spumoni.

Insider Tips
ParkingIf you find a space in the tiny adjacent lot, go buy a lotto ticket. Otherwise, it's a battle for street meters.
Know Before You GoNo fancy buzzers or pagers here. Average wait time (in line) for a table is at least 30 minutes.
The ExtrasThe attached deli grocery is a hidden gem for gourmet Italian fixings. Olive oils, pastas, prosciutto -- all imported from the boot.
