If you are looking for a classy romantic Italian restaurant, this is not it. Blasting rock n roll music from the kitchen from tiny little speaker complete destroyed the atmosphere. Change the music selection to a classic, lower the volume, and buy multiple speakers. The pasta was cooked well, the sauce was quite spicy, but the $20 up charge to add shrimp to a dish is insane, almost $5 a shrimp. What did you do, drive to the ocean and back for that price? Drink consistently ran dry, we were not checked on after food was delivered, which items were missing. Bottom line, for the price this isn't worth it. Especially with the music choice.

Had a reservation for our anniversary. When reserving we asked for a quiet table. Had to wait for a table and were seated in the middle of the dining room. Not sure why they asked if it was a special occasion.

The Veal Parm and the bread with ricotta are the best things here, the ricotta is really good. Overall though this place is a little overpriced for what it is. The lasagna and vodka pasta were just ok. Worth trying other stuff. It is so loud in here that you cant really talk without really raising your voice. Tiny tables dont help either so I would hold out for a booth if I decide to try again. Wait staff was fine but the small tables and noise really leaves a lot to be desired.

The food was excellent and the atmosphere perfect for a night out with friends. The only thing that detracted from the evening was the 3 tables of 10 college aged women (30 total) that were loud and privileged owning the room

I’m not sure why a restaurant of this magnitude would not have air-conditioning in August, in Texas. It was so ridiculously hot while we were eating there that we almost couldn’t finish dinner. No air was even moving in the room, although ceiling fans were on low. This was our first experience with the restaurant and will likely be the last, mainly because of the heat, but overall, he food was just ok as well. The Veal Parmesan was quite good, but their famous lasagna with supposedly 100 layers was just so-so. We also ordered fried artichokes and they too, were just OK. It was a very expensive place to eat and because of the lack of air conditioning, the evening was not what it should have been. I was happy when dinner was over because it was cooler outside than it was inside. If you decide to go to this restaurant, I would call and see if their air conditioning is working because it is absolutely miserable when it’s not.
Delicious Italian food. Wonderful service. Thank you

I recently visited Fechini Restaurant with my neighbor and had an amazing experience. We ordered the Cacio e Pepe pasta, 100-layer lasagna, a salad, and tiramisu to finish. Everything from start to end was memorable.
The Cacio e Pepe was absolutely perfect in my opinion—rich, cheesy, with just the right kick of pepper. I really loved the depth of flavor, especially the balance between the cheese and that freshly cracked pepper. My neighbor, on the other hand, found it a bit spicy and mentioned the pasta was slightly overcooked for her taste—so I think it really depends on personal preference. But for me, it was spot on.
The 100-layer lasagna was just as incredible as I remembered—this was actually my second time having it, and it didn’t disappoint. Each bite was layered with flavor and perfectly balanced. The salad was fresh and simple, a nice contrast to the richness of the pasta.
We ended with the tiramisu, which was a highlight. It was honestly better than many dessert cafés I’ve been to—light, creamy, and full of flavor. It tied the meal together beautifully.
Parking can be a bit challenging since it’s in the Highland Park shopping area, but on the plus side, it's a great spot to walk around and explore after your meal.
If you’re looking for a cozy place with elevated comfort food, flavorful pasta, and desserts worth saving room for—Fechini is a must-try.
