   Always great, a gem in ridgewood. Even better is a decent wine list with a handful of Tuscan treats.

   Felina in Ridgewood is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, stylish, and inviting. The service is top-notch—friendly, knowledgeable staff who truly care about providing a great dining experience. The food is nothing short of incredible! Every dish is beautifully presented and packed with flavor, using fresh, high-quality ingredients. The cocktails are equally impressive—creative, well-balanced, and delicious. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a night out, Felina never disappoints. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Ridgewood! They also gave us a cute card wishing us a Happy Anniversary.

   The ambience at this place is great, however, I do believe some of the portion sizes for the food are a little small for the price. For example, the cacio et pepe was not very big. Additionally, the clam pizza was good however the clams tasted a little too fishy. The drinks were great, dessert was good too. I had the tiramisu, which tasted more like coffee and was not as creamy as I had hoped, but still very good. I ordered the ginger rose which was a delicious cocktail. The ambience was beautiful and I could see myself coming here again for an appetizer and drink.

   First time here was underwhelming in terms of the food. No where near as good as Sola Osteria, whose Chef, MASSIMO SOLA, used to work here. The pasta dishes were limp and over sauced. And no one even offered grated cheese for the dishes! The blood orange sorbet came half melted! What this place has going for it is the ambiance. It's a cool space. But the acoustics are horrible and it's so noisy you can barely here your group when they are talking. There was even a guy with a guitar, but you wouldn't know he was playing unless you actually looked at him. It was THAT noisy. Overall, I can't say I'd be going back soon. The only thing that remains of interest would be to try out the roof space in the spring or early fall, but it's just not a burning desire after this meal.

   Hello Arthur; Thank you for your feedback. Sorry to see we fell just a bit short for you on food and value though. thanks for the 5-stars on ambience. We're always looking for ways to enhance our guests' experiences and your feedback is invaluable in that process. I'll be sure to pass on your concerns of our pasta dishes and sorbet to the chef. We do apologize for the noise level but being an old bank space, it was designed to keep the bad guys out but unfortunately keeps all the noise in. We look forward to welcoming you back to Felina - Ridgewood with hope you will give us another chance to wow you! And should there ever be anything we or I can do to make things even better, especially while you are here, please don't hesitate to ask for me. Sincere Regards. Frank and the team at Felina

   We had an exceptional experience at Felina tonight! Our last-minute decision to dine there turned out to be the perfect choice. My dad, who was visiting, came along and immediately noticed the outstanding service—the manager was truly dedicated, checking in with every table to ensure guests were enjoying their meals and feeling taken care of. He personally stopped by our table multiple times, which added a special touch to the evening. The ambiance is both chic and welcoming, striking the perfect balance between trendy and comfortable. The service was prompt and friendly, making us feel right at home. As always, the food was absolutely delicious—each dish was crafted with care, and the flavors were top-notch. We also thoroughly enjoyed the live music, which added a wonderful vibe to the night. Living in Ridgewood, we’re lucky to have such a gem in town. Felina has consistently been one of our go-to spots because it’s a place that never disappoints, whether we’re craving great food, impeccable service, or just a night out in a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience!

    This was my second visit to Felina's, and it was even better than the first. It's a great place to go early and have a drink at their beautiful and spacious bar before dinner. Tyler and all the wait staff were so polished and knowledgeable about the menu and made very nice wine-pairing recommendations. The host and the chef stopped by the table to check in on our comfort and service. Once absorbed in the ambiance, you could have transported yourself anywhere. Fantastic on every front!
