Felice 56: An Italian Delight at 15 W 56th St, NYC

Great place, been here two times and enjoyed both meals. Will be back again. The space is really nice - those high ceilings! - and my pasta was delicious. My only tip is the dishes with spice do have a bit of a kick to it so if you're sensitive to spice I'd recommend asking if that could be lowered.

I've been to two other Felice restaurants 64 stand 83 st and admittedly I prefer those. One would thing the food would be identical but in fact it's not Now don't get me wrong the food here was very nice.. but it didn't feel like there was any consistency to the others The room is much larger, more commercial almost like a hotel restaurant vibe. Smartly designed and still lovely. But just much larger and less intimate The staff are lovely ,especially Manolo, a barkeep and waiter. We had the buratta,which was simple and clean. Yet it thrilling Also the tuna tartare which was chopped up fine with fresh Avacado but the flavor lacked. The salmon entree was seasoned and prepared perfectly. All in all a good restaurant but I might prefer the other locations in the future

We choose this place randomly off maps while visiting NY and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent, the ambiance was calm and quiet, the service was satisfactory and the manager was very pleasant and even offered my boyfriend a free espresso on his way out. We recommended to a family member who temporarily lives in NY and she mentioned it's a celebrity hot spot which we had no idea. Note, we did not see any celebrities during our visit.

A friend organized a meal for 7 of us here (a reunion of sorts). They sat us downstairs in the wine room, which was actually perfect b/c we were all telling stories, drinking laughing and we were the only people in the downstairs. If you have a large party of up to 12 maybe - this is a great option and ask for the table in the wine room downstairs. They didn't rush us. We split a few appetizers (the zeppole prosciutto and the arancini). They were fine, but my entree of a chicken milanese with a salad on top. This was an EXCELLENT cutlet -- thin, crispy (crispy!) and tender. SO good. I had some of my husband's pasta too - A parpadelle with mushrooms, endive, sausage and truffle. Also very good -- and both were good portions. The food was really good, but the 5th star was for accommodating and letting us be loud and slow with our meal! The bathrooms had the prettiest wallpaper, I am going to try and find it to do my 1/2 bath.

Great place to come for a date night -- nice and romantic! We ordered bruschetta, arancini, carbonara, and linguine alle vongole. Everything was good, but the pastas were a little heavy and oily, but flavors were good.

We found this place when it started to downpour in the city. I was super impressed by the vibes, it's a cafe on the first floor and a full blown sit down restaurant on the second floor. We got a couple of apps, the eggplant park and the mushroom ricotta toast. I loved both but wow the mushroom toast was delicious, something about the texture of the mushrooms with the soft texture of the ricotta and honey with the crunchiness of the figs was mind blowing!

This was such a wonderful experience. We had to be in the area to pick up a watch. My daughter googled Italian restaurants and Felice popped up. I am so glad we gave it a try. The restaurant is modern with simple clean lines but warm atmosphere. We ordered burrata with prosciutto, calamari and bruschetta. Outstanding! My husband ordered pasta with muscles, my daughter ordered pasta with bolognese and I opted in for a burger. Food was unbelievable. We did order dessert which also didn't disappoint, tiramisu, crème brûlée and cheesecake. Everything was perfect and all the food was beautifully plated. I will definitely return. This restaurant is great for casual outing or a romantic evening.
