The food is delicious! Make reservations when they reopen because it's usually a busy restaurant! Love their bread! I heard they are closed, but hope they reopen soon! Great vibe there, nice long bar with plenty seats, great view from the upstairs and from the private room as well!

So sad that it is closing. We loved this intimate, elegant Italian Classic. The building is for sale.

Terrific food but pricey. The map shows it temporarily closed but I think that is an understatement.

Lunch at Felicia's is a must! We had the 4 course chef tasting and every dish was superb and tasty!

I sent my friends to this place with my warmest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. This recommendation is always successful. The the food there is delicious and the team is very friendly and cooperative. Every time we visit this place we pass a pleasing evening. warmly recommended.

I dine at Felidia occasionally. I find East Side restaurants a bit too formal, but I don't mind formality once a year. My recent trip to Felidia was a good one. I enjoyed my dinner as did my guest. We were seated upstairs, downstairs is for their regulars only. I really didn't mind that because the table's are much better spaced on the second floor. The kitchen at Felidia is solid, but not extraordinary. I very much enjoyed the Pear Pecorino Ravioli. It may sound unusual, but it was very tasty. I liked their Octopus, the tentacles were properly charred, and the prep was rustic. What I disliked was the top heavy wine list. Is everybody dining on Manhattan's East Side rich? I guess this is the price of popularity.

Cosy and elegant dining rooms. Excellent service. Spectacular Italian-inspired food. Fantastic pear and pecorino ravioli -- gluten-free, homemade. A beautiful gluten-free bread/loaf or gigantic fresh roll placed in front of me when I expected nothing. Highly recommend.

Came here for restaurant week. Food was fine but not something I would come back for considering the price point. I enjoyed the truffle shavings in my pasta, Tiramisu was a disappointment for me.
This is my favorite place to go for a nice dinner. I only come on Sunday nights as the family dinner is my favorite meal and it is consistently delicious. The wine is a bit overpriced but considering the meal is a steal- it all equals out.

I think this is the first of the Lydia restaurants it's gotten better over the years, earlier in the beginning( late 80s )the service is kind of rude ,food was always good the last few years seems it so it's not as busy as it used to be and they appreciate the customers more so

Atmosphere was small, intimate in the upstairs dining area. Service was attentive and did not rush the meal. Portion size was perfect, food had delicious flavor. Dessert sampler was my favorite part of the meal. Red velvet mini cupcakes that were as light as a cloud. Very expensive for the amount of food served. Not sure I would visit again but a memorable meal.

We simply love eating at Felidia! Whenever in NY, that's our restaurant of choice, since the old days of the general Maitre D, Kennedy! This time we went twice to Felidia in a week's time visit!

Classic Italian experience. One of the best restaurants in NYC. If you are lucky you may see Lidia Bastianich.
