About this business
Interesting, unusual and downright delicious dishes from the provinces of northern Italy are served at this restaurant, along with some of the most sought after wines of Europe and America. There is also excellent service and charming decor, including terra cotta floors that will remind you of an Italian home. Owned by famed chef and restaurateur Lydia Bastianich, it would be hard to find an uninteresting dish here. Pastas such as the homemade ravioli and risotto with porcini mushrooms are especially noteworthy.

Fantastic Italian – One word: AMAZING! I had the most incredible meal with my husband here last week. We feasted on the freshest Crudo I've had in years and then enjoyed a tasting of their homemade pastas. We indulged and ordered a shaving of the black winter truffle over our porcini tagliatelle- I can?t tell you how delicious it was! My husband is from Umbria and he said the flavors brought him back to his childhood. We were made to feel at home at home with perfect but non intrusive service. This is our new special place.
Inaccurate information on website – I visited Felidia last night for the first time. While the food was okay, it was not spectacular. The menu was overpriced and the service pushy. My biggest complaint is that their website advertises menu items that ARE NOT available in the restaurant! For those prices, a mistake like that is inexcusable. They need to update their website. Overall, it was a poor experience and I won't return.
Treat Women Badly – I had a reservation for about a month at Felidia, I was taking my editor to celebrate my new book deal. When we arrived, even though the restaurant had 5 empty tables, We were told we could sit by the kitchen door or next to the chafing dish where they deboned the fish. When I asked the maitre d about the other tables, the very curt reply was that they were all reserved. We finally sat next the work station. The waiter was unfriendly and the table was extremely uncomfortable for three people. Even though ... read more
Best Italian in NYC – People who pan Felidia's food don't understand good cooking. Only the freshest seasonal ingredients are employed in simple, elegant preparations that reveal their full flavor. The homemade pasta is finished tableside, which only adds to the freshness. I also shared a Japanese organic salmon for two, and we both agreed it was as good as any fish we'd ever had anywhere in the US, Asia or Europe. Highly recommended.
Totally Amazing! – I went to the dinner at Felidia last night and had the most AMAZING dinner. They had local farmers in from upstate NY who brought local produce and meats. It was the freshest food I had ever tasted. Everything was just really perfect. I spent a lot of time talking to the wine director who gave me some really great tips on picking wines that will pair with food. I thought for sure that he would try to sell me the most expensive bottle but he didn't he recommended the most delicious wine I believe it was fro... read more
What a mess! Eat anywhere else!!! – The worst! The servers stood around, talking and looking at themselves in the mirror. The salad was a disgrace, a bag of frisee with other vegetables to be seen. I would have settled for an olive in there. The pasta had to be sent back, it had a funny, sour taste, not the diablo sauce I ordered. All in all, a nightmare and not a cheap one. I will never go back and would warn anyone else to stay away.
Disappointing. We were a group of 8, mostly Italians, good cooks. Love Lidia's books, shows, recipes, but choice offered us was uninspired and limited (only tasting menu was available because of si – Disappointing. We were a family of 8 New Yorkers, mostly Italians, good cooks. Love Lidia's books, shows, recipes, but choice offered us was uninspired and limited (only tasting menu was available because of size of our party.) Outlandishly expensive, including $7 per bottle of water. Lovely wait staff, but would not go back.
Good food but bad service,especially cloak lady! – I went there with my husband. Felidia had nice atmosphere. There are authentic furniture and red lights make the mood nicer. At first, I felt this restaurant must be good. As I thought, food was not bad. I ordered shurimp rock with lemon garlic sauce. It was baked in oven. It was really tasty. But my husband plate was not so good. He oldered sea bass carpaccio. There were only three slices and a few asparagus. It's too expensive, I think. Anyway, pasta that we ordered were a... read more
You never get a second chance to make a first impression – We decided to try Felidia again - maybe we were just unlucky on our first visit. Well, after a long wait, 30 minutes, for our 8:00 reservation we were seated at a great table upstairs which really beats the main level due to the "Tokyo Subway" effect of the waitstaff shuffling about the tables. Service was efficient, but we seemed to have four waiters. The wedding pillow pasta was divine - lots of citrus, very fresh and delectable. The bone-in pork loin was overcooke... read more
