We had gone to Filippas for so many years and always enjoyed the food and options for anyone in our group. We went about 2 years ago after they had changed ownership (but had not really rebranded). While the food and service was good, the menu was incredibly limited, maybe a half dozen lunch options, and nothing from the old menu existed. No lunch appetizers, no cup of soup option, and while I appreciate the chef's preparation of our meals, it was not what we expected when going to Filippas, and not what we wanted when we chose Filippas. Needless to say, we decided not to go back. Well, today we had a mall group of 4 to take to lunch, checked online and saw the new menu and decided to try again. New menu is not an overwhelming book of 6+ pages like many years ago, but it had the right "old" favorites and some welcome new options. No one was disappointed. The food was really good, selection provided something for every taste (very accommodating for a gluten free guest and a dairy free guest) and, and service was great!! Our server was very friendly, provided several recommendations, and was prompt with everything. Food came out hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. So glad we went back to try again, we are looking forward to visiting often! Might even have to go back tomorrow!!
