Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Evan Funke

MICHELIN Plate
2022

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Evan Funke’s cozy Felix has been a smash hit since it opened in 2017, garnering raves from Eater, Esquire, Bon Appétit, and more. For the best experience, check out the action in the central "pasta lab" as you enjoy handmade noodles like Funke’s signature rigatoni all’amatriciana with big chunks of guanciale. No meal here is complete without an order of the sfincione, a Sicilian focaccia doused in olive oil, or the crispy fried squash blossoms stuffed with ricotta.

Felix Trattoria never disappoints in the culinary department! Dishes are as phenomenal as ever. BUT the acoustics are challenging. Don’t come here for an intimate conversation as you’ll be shouting over the noise! Plus prices are a bit over the top! Still, it’s a buzzy, fun place to spend an evening with friends!

Great pizzas and amazing pasta. Plates are meant to be shared and portions and generous so you don't need to order too many things. Be prepared to wait a little even if you made a reservation, about 15 min until you get sittted. Had a wonderful time, great vibe and super lively. Definitely on my radar to return!

The pasta is incredible and the freshness amazing. The Foccaaia was a class apart. Service and knowledge of staff was top notch. Only thing I’d say is the $26 glass of wine was way out of whack with value. Unfortunately this is true at all restaurants now. To have hand made pasta at this level makes this a restaurant worth spending your hard earned money on.

Food overall is good. Not worth the price but good and some dishes are better than others. Ambiance is bad especially if you sit outside- decor is cheap for a restaurant of this caliber. But the most egregious part... Service here is HORRIBLE. I am actually in shock at how bad the service is... I haven't experienced service like this in all my years living in LA. So unfriendly... They hardly interact with you (and they surely don't give you any info or recommendations about the menu) and are so aggressive about every single thing. What bothered me the most: The literal nanosecond you put your fork down, they snatch your plate and utensils away from you. I actually had to tell them multiple times that I was still clearly working on my food... when you see food in my plate and I'm still holding my fork, why on earth would you ask me if I was finished? Ugh. So entitled and clueless. AVOID.
