Ristorante Filippo - Italian restaurant in Metairie - 1917 Ridgelake Dr, USA

The restaurant is a very nice restaurant to have a meal at. The place is a little small and cramp. The parking isn't the biggest and will require finding parking somewhere else. The server was nice and came back often with water. The food is really good and the quality of the ingredients is there. The options they have is a a good size to focus of quality over quantity. Worst thing is the wait for the receipt to be made since they are old school and do it by typewriter but it's a quirky trait for them. Give a 8/10.

Nice restaurant but can do more lighting. The food is not the best I have tasted though. But I guess it is not meant for my palate.

I’m going to start by saying this; I definitely recommend Ristorante Filippo! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Baby (in my NOLA accent) let me tell you, my family and I had an amazing dining experience. We were first greeted with a genuine smile and though our stop was impromptu we were seated within 5 minutes (maybe less). Our server was a handsome Italian looking guy who at first looked a little intimidating but he turned out to be very nice 😊. We had the privilege of speaking with the owners and meeting Mr. Filippo himself ,😍a handsome Italian fella who definitely knows his way around the kitchen ;the food was Molto delizioso!!❤️⭐️🌟 The atmosphere was very welcoming and comfortable, I felt like was in my own scene of The Godfather, sitting around the table with my family surrounded by plenty of food and drinks and laughter. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

the hostess with the blonde hair is incredibly friendly and warm. the atmosphere is dimly lit and cozy. the menu has many authentic options to choose from

Went there with 2 other couples service was great. Our table initially was right as you walk in so we asked to be moved. They put us in the private room and was really nice. The dining room was really loud and stuffy. The food was fabulous and the service was great too! We would definitely go back, just not for a quiet dinner.

Ristorante Filippo is an absolute treasure and one of the BEST Italian spots in all of New Orleans, plus it’s simply located in Metairie, tucked back right off of Causeway! The atmosphere is intimate with perfectly dimmed lighting. The House Cabernet is to die for and it pairs divinely with the Lasagna (the BEST Lasagna you will ever taste! And that’s coming from a true Lasagna aficionado)! The filet was melt-in-your-mouth tender and so flavorful! The service was spot on and the whole experience will leave you counting down the days until your return.

I have never been inside the building so I can't review that. But the food! I live in the neighborhood and my husband and I drive by here all the time, we do weekly date night and this place has been on our list for a while. This week I was sick for date night so we ordered take out from here. The food was amazing, visually pleasing, and the flavor was excellent. We were so impressed. I cook alot at home and flavor is a must. They delivered. It was exactly what I wanted. He even left his phone there and the restaurant called us and returned it to us. So service and food +++

Food was absolutely outstanding...I enjoyed every bite and the portions were perfect size. One of my favorite places to eat. Every time there has been a joy. I love this place!
