Branzino
Masha F.

Came in at an off hour, so I wasn't expecting it to be busy, but the service was really not good. The bread was served cold, which wasn't a great start. I ordered the branzino and while it was good, there was absolutely nothing memorable about it. Overall, pretty underwhelming.

Vanilla gelato

Located in the Financial District. Classic small Italian restaurant. We didn't have a reservation, but due to the time of day we were seated immediately. I had an Amalfi spritz that was refreshing and delicious. Our table started with the bruschetta, the perfect blend of tomato, garlic and basil, all on a garlic crostini. I had the pappardelle with Italian sausage, delicious! We finished by sharing a tiramisù, truly amazing. I had a taste of the Bolognese, really good. Another member of our table tried the pasta and Salmon, she enjoyed it and eat every bit. The vanilla gelato was superb! Vivian our server was excellent! The staff worried well together to give you a great dining experience.

Conchiglie al Salmone
Austin B.

We dined at Felice during our stay at the hotel, and the convenience made it an easy and logical choice: no commute, just a straightforward dinner option right downstairs with a cozy vibe. I ordered the Conchiglie al Salmone, which was the highlight of the meal. The salmon was well-cooked and flavorful, paired nicely with a rich, balanced sauce that didn't overpower the dish. Portions were satisfying and the quality felt consistent with a solid four-star food experience. Service was closer to 3.5 stars. The team was friendly and professional, but not especially attentive. There were a few moments where follow-ups could have been quicker, though nothing that detracted significantly from the overall experience. All in all, a good, reliable restaurant, especially convenient if you're staying in the hotel or nearby in FiDi.

Tagliatelle Funghi e Tartufo (I added parm) filled with mushrooms. It's okay.

DINNER RESERVATION A MUST! but, Geezus that's good food. I stayed at the Gild Hall hotel where Felice is locate in. Struggled so hard not to eat all the calamari and bread as I waited for the pasta dish. Small restaurant. Really cute ambiance; traditional yet upscale decor. The wait staff was friendly; they're continuously pace the floor ready to attend to needs, asked about allergies, and made great suggestions based on my preferences. I did send the mushroom pasta back. It wasn't bad, just not good to me. I appreciated that there was no hassle, my server was kind about the exchange. Only in NY (and a few spots in Napa) have I experienced a manger coming to apologize for me not liking a meal and ensuring the rest of my experience is good. THE FOOD Durante Negroni (gin): very well balanced. Think I'll try all four Negronis on the menu throughout the day. lol Bread basket: stop. Nice fresh fluffy bread. And darn good olive oil. Calamari: cooked to perfection. A nice light breading, seasoning, and crisp. The aioli was nice and the burnt lemon really set off the flavors. LOVED the artichoke hearts. Pasta Mushroom: large dish and new on the menu. Plenty of mixed mushrooms and light sauce. It wasn't bad, I just didn't care for it. Lacked something. Spinach ravioli: everything I wanted! BREAKFAST VOUCHER: Very basic breakfast, literally 3 small potatoes but my veggie (spinach and mushroom) omelette was fluffy and tasty. I thought of adding cheese, but really didn't need it!

Branzino cooked with potatoes--bad pic of a delicious dish

I ended up eating here because of the ambiance. The space feels mature and cozy, and the various materials on the floors and walls dampen the sound, which is very important for me since I get headaches in loud settings (a lot of newer hip restaurants and bars have all hard surfaces, thus amplifying the noise levels). I ordered the branzino and really enjoyed it. The people sitting next to me at the bar enjoyed their pasta dishes, which looked divine. My only piece of constructive criticism is that the bartender who was on duty when I was there could work on his confidence. He was very friendly, but he didn't seem as confident as I had hoped when I requested a drink that wasn't on the menu. (The bar experience is everything for me, hence I look for strong bartenders.) Nonetheless, I had a good time overall and will definitely give this spot another try since I liked the ambiance and food.

Avocado toast
Yarn Y.

We had breakfast in felice - a small "speakeasy" like bar inside the gild hall hotel . Very classy and great atmosphere . We went for the avocado toast w poached eggs which was yummy , coffee and orange juice were nice as well . Not a place to make a trip to for a special occasion , but you're staying in the hotel it's a fantastic option for breakfast

Fettuccine alla Bolognese and classico spritz.

Highly recommended. We are Italian and rarely find really good authentic Italian food. This is the spot. Every dish is delicious. The service is fantastic, shout out to the best, Vivian!

We had both a dine-in and takeout breakfasts from Felice 15 Gold, an Italian restaurant located on street level of Gild Hall, a Thompson hotel by Hyatt in the Financial District. The food was good, but service could've been better. Nice boutique atmosphere. This restaurant is part of the Felice upscale restaurant chain which has 11 locations in New York (mostly in Manhattan) and two in Florida (Miami and West Palm Beach). This location is named after its address: 15 Gold St in Lower Manhattan. We found out about Felice 15 Gold because we stayed at Gild Hall this past weekend. Each night of our stay came with vouchers for complimentary breakfasts at Felice 15 Gold: Monday-Friday, 7:30am-11:00am and Saturday-Sunday, 8:00am-11:30am. Each voucher was "redeemable for: American Breakfast, Yogurt Parfait, Crostone con Avocado, Felice Oatmeal, French Toast or Frutta Fresca only; served with Orange Juice and Brewed Coffee or Tea." The serving sizes for the voucher versions of breakfast are smaller than the serving sizes of breakfast ordered from the regular menu. Using vouchers, my wife and I had the following: * Crostone con Avocado - chopped avocado, poached eggs, toasted bread, pepperoncino, lime zest * Felice Oatmeal - warm organic oats, fresh blueberries, honey Both items were delicious. My wife liked that the Crostone con Avocado came with two eggs. There was a generous amount of avocado and it was fresh. This dish is essentially avocado toast. According to the regular menu, the non-voucher version also comes with roasted potatoes and mixed greens. I really enjoyed the Felice Oatmeal. I've eaten a lot of oatmeal in my life and I thought the texture of Felice's oatmeal was pretty much perfect. It came with just the right amount of honey on the side and the blueberries were ripe, sweet, and not too tart. The bowl was filling and satisfying. One of our friends, who was also staying at this hotel, ordered the oatmeal too. She had the same opinion as me regarding its texture -- not too soggy and not too dry. She got hers with maple syrup instead of honey. My wife and I also ordered a side of bacon and breakfast to go and paid separately for it: * Bacon ($9) * American Breakfast ($21) - two eggs any style (I requested scrambled) with bacon, roasted potatoes, and toasted bread * Frutta Fresca ($16) - seasonal mixed fruits The bacon was good. Crispy and crunchy. I think there were four strips. Any less than that for $9 would've been a ripoff, so I'm glad they gave us at least four pieces. All components of the American Breakfast were quite tasty. I scarfed it down inside our room. The scrambled eggs were rich and flavorful. There was more of that yummy bacon. The potatoes weren't over-seasoned, which I appreciated. The bread came with butter, but the slices were so tasty on their own, they didn't need it. I think the bread was grilled instead of toasted. The Frutta Fresca consisted of honeydew, pineapple, cantaloupe, blueberries, red grapes, and strawberries. Aside from the grapes and blueberries, all of the fruit was cut into small, bite-size pieces. I often buy fruit bowls from Publix; the Felice fruit was cut smaller -- so there was a bit of a more delicate touch. As for the fruit quality itself, it was fresh and standard of a cut fruit bowl you'd get at a decent grocery store. Both the dine-in and takeout dishes were plated and presented beautifully. Dining in, they have nice dinnerware. The Crostone con Avocado was served on a floral-decorative plate. Felice's takeout containers have Felice-brand stickers on them, which I think is a nice, elevated touch. Consistent with the presentation, the restaurant interior is chic and stylish. There are two compact floors of seating with multiple bars and dining rooms. White tablecloths, button booths, rustic chandeliers, and an intimate wine bar/library vibe. There's a single unisex restroom upstairs. This is just speculation, but I think the staff treated the "paying" customers better than the hotel guests who were there for the "free" breakfasts. Also, I think they seated the hotel breakfast guests in the front bar area and the non-hotel, "paying" customers in the back. We were served coffee, but were never asked if we wanted cream. We had to flag down our server, who seemed quite busy, for cream. When we got the cream, it was a very small amount, so we had to ask for more. We also never got the OJ as printed on our vouchers. I wanted OJ, but it seemed like it would be a hassle to ask for it. So yeah, service wasn't the best. The staff was kind enough, though. Our to-go order was originally brought out as dine-in. They had to take our plates back to the kitchen and pack them up. Not a big deal. The breakfast plate was still delicious. We ended up not using some vouchers to try other breakfast options in the neighborhood. We had a $100 American Express credit/benefit for the items we paid for. Felice 15 Gold opened on October 3, 2012.

Parmigiano reggiano happy hour appetizer
Carrie S.

I stopped here for a quick drink and snack during happy hour. I definitely want to come back for lunch or dinner. The restaurant is a little dark but I think it adds to the ambiance. The wine list was excellent. Even the happy hour choices. There isn't much to the happy hour food menu. I tried the parmigiano reggiano with balsamic. The cheese was delicious. Not a bad portion for the price. The balsamic was thick and flavorful. Definitely a higher end balsamic.

When I stay downtown NYC, I always stay at Guild Hall. This restaurant is in the Guild Hall hotel. It's got that same fantastic smell of expensive wood. This spot has been very nice to me. It's judgment free. I can have too many cocktails and stumble back to my room, I can come here for dessert, act like I'm a local and this is even my breakfast spot before I head out into the jungle of New York City. in this case, I needed something sweet after dinner. The brownie was rich and checked that box. They even gave me a dollop of ice cream.

Felice 15 Gold is a solid favorite. I've been to a couple of their locations and they all exude elegance. The one in FiDi is no exception. In the past, I've visited here for HH, dinners and company get togethers . My friend and I chose Felice 15 Gold for our own holiday dinner. Since she was running late and I arrived early, I was grateful to be seated in advance of her arrival. Decor was in full holiday mode--very elegant with dim lighting--and service was exceptional. The server allowed me to try their Felice Rose which was excellent and my choice for the duration of the evening/meal. My friend and I shared the Baked Eggplant for a starter which was a substantial portion for two as well as a delicious healthier choice. Yes, my craving called out to Fried Calamari but I am trying to be good and definitely recommend the Eggplant. It tasted something my family or myself would whip up. There were specials of the day but the menu on its own offered plenty of choices. I selected the Grilled Chicken while my friend went the pasta route. Her selection was Papardelle with Sausage. We didn't wait long before the mains were served. My chicken cutlet was smothered with radicchio, tomatoes and sprinkled with walnuts. This dish was executed well and very healthy. My friend gave her pasta dish two thumbs up. We were too full for dessert having enjoyed such a delicious meal. If in the area, definitely consider Felice 15 Gold. Right on Gold Street and in the Gild Hotel. Great for any occasion.

Conchiglie al Salmone was a perfect surprise flavor combo of pink sauce, salmon, n a bit of spice:)

Great Monday solo dinner for a work trip. The bartender was super attentive n professional, answered my wine questions and set me up with a perfect pairing!

Love love love. I really enjoyed the tuna carpaccio & fusilli ferretto e burrata. This was the best cacio e pepe I've ever had. My server was excellent - very nice and helpful. The place is so chic, warm & cozy. I will absolutely be back.

Ask the Community - Felice 15 Gold

Gluten free options?

Yes!

Would this location be able to accommodate a group of 5-6? It looks like they only have small tables in their photos.

They have an upstairs area that can. We had a luncheon of 20 and it was wonderful!

How about dress code? Casual is ok?

I'd say yes, but maybe up a step. A lot of folks who go are going post work, so maybe business casual. Wouldn't wear shorts, don't know that I saw anyone in jeans when I was there. But don't stress about jacket and tie or anything. It's a nice place…

I don't think I've ever had raw artichoke. It divided the table; some didn't like the raw vegetal taste. I loved its refreshing grassy flavor and meaty texture paired with the sharp umami Parmesan, the earthy flavors melded all together with the olive oil. My only note is that the appetizers are all slightly pricey. Tagliatelle al tartufo (10/10): Perfect homemade pasta texture. Strong truffle flavor with a generous amount grated on top at the table. Just the right amount of sauce. The sweet red wine we picked was delectably fruity too. I would come back to try more of the pastas and perhaps the tiramisu.

We started with the arugula salad, which was fresh and nicely balanced, and then got a little carried away with the pasta. We ordered the Tagliatelle con cipolla, the famous meat lasagna, and a special with lamb and mushrooms. In retrospect, three pasta dishes for two people was absolutely too much, but we were excited to try everything and decided to take advantage while we were there haha. The standout for me was the lasagna. It absolutely lives up to the reputation. The Tagliatelle con cipolla was probably my other favorite. The pasta itself was excellent and you can clearly tell that the pasta is made fresh. The lamb and mushroom special was unfortunately the one dish we would skip next time. It just did not land for us and I would not order it again. That said, the lasagna and Tagliatelle con cipolla were good enough that I would happily come back for those two. We also had the tiramisu, which was excellent and a great way to finish the meal. The staff were very attentive throughout the meal and it was actually not too busy when we went, which made the whole experience feel relaxed. That said, getting a reservation here is not exactly easy, so I would definitely plan ahead. Overall, I really enjoyed I Sodi. The atmosphere is beautiful without feeling overly formal, the fresh pasta is the real star. Next time, I would keep it simple and stick to two pasta dishes instead of three and leave some room for the tiramisu. Definitely a restaurant I would return to.
