Deep within the Tuscan countryside, in via della Maulina, one of the world’s most noteworthy areas of high quality wine production, lies a sprawling 19th century family estate, Fattoria Sardi. The three elegant wines produced there – Felice Bianco, Rosso and Rosato – embody the essence and flavors of the Italian countryside.
Jacopo Giustiniani opened the first FELICE wine bar in Manhattan’s Upper East Side in 2007 so New Yorkers could share the spirit of his homeland and the wines of his family’s vineyard. An extensive, Italian-driven wine list and a menu of rustic and authentic Tuscan plates are all served in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Since then, five more locations have opened on the Upper East Side, Midtown West, Financial District and Brooklyn.
Our main dining room and La Soffitta are available for large groups and private functions for any occasion.
The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and offers special features such as a "Prix Fixe Lunch" option catering to our busy guests who want to dine within 45 minutes.
This successful restaurant is already a favorite uptown, amongst local clientele, wine lovers and serious foodies alike. The location features an expansive brass bar alongside with traditional Tuscan design elements of the Felice brand are visible in Robert McKinley’s design details including custom made tables and leather bench seats. The menu inspired by rustic Tuscan cuisine, includes Italian classics made with the freshest produce available by sourcing from and partnering with local farms to obtain the most flavorful seasonal ingredients.
Felice offers a unique wine list composed of over 100 bottles of white, red and sparkling Italian wines with over 30 offered by the glass. This location accommodates 55-seats in the restaurant area; the upstairs wine lounge, La Soffitta, accommodates an additional 35-seats, available for private events.
