  • wedding rehearsal lunch
    Wow. Just wow. We did a full buyout of Felice for our wedding rehearsal lunch June 2023. Every single detail was incredible, start to finish! We couldn't have asked for a better way to kick off our wedding weekend. The Felice team is so kind and felt like family. And the food was to die for! 12/10 recommend!
  • client event, party of 18
    Held an 18 person client event here and had a blast. Thank you to the event planners and team.
  • birthday dinner, party of 12
    I had my birthday here and I think it was the best restaurant & service I’ve ever had. I made my reservation for a group of 12 a week before with their help and they were so helpful and kind. Dinner was absolutely delicious and they were so kind and attentive. Every member of the staff was outstanding and I could not recommend this place more. I had the best birthday and time here and their incredible staff made it happen!! Thank you and I will be coming again!
  • group dinner, party of 9
    Skip this place if you’re a large group—the service was pretty bad and the hostess completely ran us around for no reason. I came here with a group of nine. The hostess promised us the entire outdoor area, made us wait over 45 minutes at the bar, and then finally brought us to a table that only sat five people. After that pointless runaround, she had to pivot and move us inside anyway to a table that actually fit us. The chaos continued with the kitchen: • The Kitchen Fumble: Seven people got their entrees on time, but the kitchen completely forgot the last two orders. It made for a super uncomfortable experience with part of the table waiting around while everyone else's food got cold. • The Food: Pretty mediocre overall. The arancini were good and the bruschetta was fine, but the Carbonara was mid and the pappardelle sausage was just okay. • The Only Saving Grace: The drinks at the bar during our wait were actually pretty good (highly recommend the Aperol Sour). Good drinks don't make up for a complete lack of basic hospitality and organization. Avoid if you value seamless service.
  • birthday dinner, party of 7
    From the start this place was sooo attentive. I called for a Saturday reservation for my birthday on the day of. So I know, party of 7, so last minute. But Frederico, that picked up my call was so friendly and sooo caring and helpful. He was on the phone with me for a while trying to move tables around so he could make room for us. So thoughtful and kind. Once my party and I arrived again, so nice, we grabbed a drink at the bar until our table was ready. I had a mezcal old fashion which was very delicious, not very sweet, exactly how I like it. Once we were seated, Mario, the server was beyond attentive and funny. Service was impeccable and everyone was sooo caring. Food and drinks were really delicious. We had the homemade ice cream with the strawberry and caramel sauce along with the pistachio, and woowww. So delicious. That’s a total must, y’all have to try. It was everyone’s first time there and I just can’t believe I got this lucky to find such a nice place to celebrate my birthday. The place itself is impeccable, so pretty, neat, comfortable, cozy and chic at the same time. It reached beyond my expectations. I’m trying to find the words to express my gratitude to all staff for how well we were treated and I feel like it’s not enough. But again, thank youuuu soooo much. I’ll be recommending this place for liiiife! Really!!! 🥹
