Felina Ridgewood - Ridgewood, New Jersey

Came on New Years Eve and it was a very interesting night. We reserved a 9:30pm table for their New Year’s Eve 4-course dinner which online stated was available after 9pm and clearly stated was for NYE. We were seated and given menus for their 3 course meal and when we asked the waitress she said it was only available for Christmas Eve? Didnt question it too much and we were quite full with the three courses anyway but it felt like false advertising. We ordered the pear and burrata and the fluke crudo for the appetizers. The pear & burrata was good but neither of us liked the fluke crudo and we didn’t finish it. Boyfriend really enjoyed his short rib entree and that saved the meal. The branzino was pretty good and hearty. The crème brule was good with the raspberries but I have had better. Chocolate mouse was good. Boyfriend ordered a ginger pop mock tail which was crazily only $1 less than my cocktail (I forgot what it was called but it was really good and had a mescal base)
While we were there the smoke alarm went off for a little bit and the downstairs bathrooms flooded (it was raining all night). Overall, it was underwhelming and we didn’t even want to stay for the promised complimentary champagne at midnight.

Nice venue with some good choices for food. The food didn’t amaze me but was good overall (maybe lacked a little flavor imo and i’m not picky). Our server was nice but forgetful. Wont go out of my way to come back here.

Stumbled in with my sister while waiting to have dinner at a nearby restaurant.

We both had a drink and an appetizer which were all delicious.

They also had two musicians playing music as well which was a nice ambiance. I would absolutely go back.

A fantastic new restaurant in Ridgewood that we visited for dinner. A previous bank building that was repurposed for this restaurant, it has huge hall for hosting events like wedding, baby shower, corporate events, has a huge dining area for guests and has a roof top bar for pleasant experience. There’s a section that has a bank vault and full of deposit box. Such cool rustic look.

We reserved our dinner to ensure we get a table. Upon arrival, we were seated right away. The menu is short and precise, has some excellent options. We loved the calamari, they were just about the right size and portion. The lasagna was creamy, such tasty marinara sauce. I tried the salmon for entree. Very nicely cooked, moist in the middle and a nice crispy skin. The side of fries was excellent too. I got the purple passion non alcohol drink, very citrusy, had couple of those.

Overall the service was good. Entree took sometime to come out. We got a tour of the restaurant from one of the manager. Very friendly staff. We will totally go back to try other items in the menu.

It’s an old bank turned into restaurant. They still keep all the wonder features from the bank. One of the managers Sean gave us a tour and it was thrilling to see everything up close.

Food is impeccable. I had Bronzino. Crispy skin and tender insider. Seared perfectly. We also had wine appetizer dessert. I liked all of them.

Service is great. Upon arrival for our reservation, no waiting time. It does get a little loud when the place is full. Great place for dates, hangouts and family gatherings.

This was my first time at Felina and I can confidently say I will be back! Tyler S. was a great server who really went above and beyond to give us a memorable experience. This is the perfect date night spot. Recommend the arancini appetizer.

From start to finish our experience at Felina was exceptional. We arrived to our reservation early so Frank showed us up to the rooftop where we enjoyed an array of spritz, Negronis, and other craft cocktails in a more than beautiful setting. Felt as if we were at an Italian beach club that somehow ended up in the middle of Ridgewood. We then sat down for an absolutely delicious meal. Our servers went above and beyond as it was my mother in laws birthday. There was a cellist playing music at an acceptable volume. The food was fresh and of highest quality and served hot and cooked to perfection. We had 2 appetizers, red snapper, chicken Milanese and 2 pasta dishes all which were presented beautifully and with balanced flavors. In addition, the desserts were authentic and we were never rushed from our table. We will definitely be returning and we were pleasantly surprised by the bill for such high quality food. Thank you Frank and the entire waitstaff at Felina for making our experience unforgettable.
