Felix: Modern American Dining

We started with the Heirloom Bruschetta which was fantastic! Our favorite dish of the night. For our mains we ordered Double Cut Pork Chop and the Felix Burger with sides of Asparagus and Broccoli. Sadly, the pork chop was a bit bland in taste. While the Burger was pretty good with some unique flavors. The sides were fairly good as well. Excellent service from our server!

Classic American dishes served in a sleek & modern space. The food was solid but leaned a bit safe overall. The aguachile was refreshing though quite spicy with large pieces of jalapeño. The Toscano flatbread had a lovely crispy texture, topped with rich goat cheese & hot honey, and the Brussels sprouts were similarly satisfying with their cheesy notes. The Alfredo was comforting but not especially memorable. Overall, a decently enjoyable meal in a polished setting, though it would’ve benefitted from a few more creative choices on the menu.

Felix is a great spot for elevated comfort food with solid vegetarian options. We tried a variety of dishes, and the highlights for me were the crispy brussels sprouts, Orchard Waldorf salad, rigatoni alla vodka, eggplant parmesan, and the brownie à la mode. Everything was nicely presented, and the flavors were comforting yet elevated. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was the perfect place for a cozy dinner out, and I would definitely recommend it.

Felix has an interesting ambiance inside with a large dining room with lots of plants and a colorful accent wall. It’s almost like a Caribbean vibe. I got the Chicken Caesar Cutlet which was fantastic. A bed of perfectly dressed caesar over a big piece of chicken. I’m glad I couldn’t finish it so I could enjoy some leftovers later. My mom had the Greek Scramble with a side of fruit and really liked hers as well. The service is top notch and they’re always checking in on you to make sure you’re doing all right. If you’re looking for a brunch spot off Clark St, I recommend coming in and trying out Felix. Their eclectic menu is fun and should have something to satisfy any craving.

Decided to give this place a try based on the happy hour (Sunday $25 2 course meal) and man am I glad we did. For starters Israel, our server, was fantastic. A+. The food was great, cocktails fun and interesting and the ambiance is nice. Overall this was great! Lasagna and the felix burger both tip top and so was the Brussels sprouts. Also, the portions were huge. Could have easily split the lasagna and Brussels between the 2 of us.

Food was very good. Steaks were prepared perfectly, great flavor. Drinks fantastic. But service was meh. It looked like obe of our orders was probably forgotten, so the 3 orders came out, and then we just sat there waiting. Noone checked on us and said anything about the 4th order that was like 15 minutes behind. Once ot showed up it was good, but it wasn't even hot. Interestingly, we were there on a Saturday night at 6:30 and the restaurant was half empty. NOT a good sign. The food was good tho. Really good.

We always drive by this place and always wanted to try it out but when you have 3 kids it’s hard to make this kind of decisions ! Last Sunday we were just walking and decided to give it a try! They welcome my family and all my kids with a big smile ! They are great and hospitable! The atmosphere and the service were excellent and professional! And let us start with the food !!!! If I can give 7 stars I would ! The best burger I have ever tested! We got lucky to sit next to a table that was ordering from the dinner menu and we were amazed to see the variety of the dishes and the value in portions! Even as basic as French fries was amazing taste! Check the amazing plates we order ! And definitely don’t forget to try their cocktails!!! All are Amazon and delicious

Waited months for this corner spot to open. Menu is a little sporadic, like they haven't picked a genre despite the diner vibe. Nevertheless, the food was good and service friendly. In the diner spirit I ordered the pork chop. The cocktails were particularly well done. The layout and decor are great. This might have to be my local bar spot. Will definitely be back. Second visit I had the smash burger. It was good but missing something. Maybe seasoning/salt on the meat. The aioli was too thick with mayo. Good but missing a bit of flavor. Cocktails were again delicious. Service was great. Very happy they added outdoor patio seating.

To celebrate the holidays, we recently tried Felix for the first time with friends. They are big fans of Bites Asian Kitchen + Bar--located a few doors north--and also happen to be the owners of Felix. You enter through a front room with a long bar before moving into the main dining area, which is lined with large windows. Warm wood paneling and colorful graphics give the space an inviting, energetic feel. Our server was excellent--friendly and attentive--and both the owner and a manager stopped by during the evening to check in, which was appreciated. Felix has an extensive cocktail menu, and servers were busy delivering trays of beautiful drinks throughout the night. I ordered the Windy City Sunset mocktail, while my husband chose the Smokey Old Fashioned. Both were very good. The food, however, was more of a mixed bag. We started with the meatballs for the table; unfortunately, they were overcooked and hard, and even the marinara sauce couldn't save them from being dry and unappetizing. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger, which was delicious and generously sized--easily enough for two meals. My husband ordered the chicken Parmesan with a side of pasta and found the chicken somewhat dry. Our friends ordered a pasta dish to share, though they didn't eat much of it while tending to their very well-behaved six-month-old. While the bar and dining room are attractive, the bathroom was a major disappointment--dirty and unkempt, especially considering it was early in the evening (around 6 p.m.), not late enough to excuse the condition. The owners and staff are genuinely kind, and the menu shows a lot of promise. At the moment, though, the food doesn't quite live up to what they're serving at Bites. I hope Felix can work out some of the inconsistencies and find success--it certainly has the potential. I would like to give Felix 3.5-stars, but Yelp does not accommodate this option.

My goal is to try 50 new Chicago restaurants in 2025! Restaurant: 33/50 Month tried: June Favorite dish: Mac & cheese Felix surprised me!! I brought a large group here for a work dinner because of their versatile menu. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations since I'd heard nothing about them since they opened. But we were able to try a lot of different dishes and there are some serious gems on the menu! Side dishes were the standouts here: the Mac and cheese, roasted potatoes, and Parmesan fries were addicting. The spaghetti croquettes are unique and tasty, though ours did not come out hot. The elote wedge and Caesar salads were a hit. I thought my chicken vesuvio was not very good - it was altered too much from the classic dish for my tastes, and the chicken was dry. I was pleasantly surprised and I would not hesitate to someone looking for a solid meal!

Felix offers a modern American menu rooted in familiar comfort dishes, elevated with good ingredients and thoughtful touches. The online menu lists everything from salads, flatbreads, steaks & chops, pasta and handhelds. Service tends to be described as friendly and attentive.

First timer! Visiting my brother for the weekend:). He suggested this place due to the appetizers and entrees. We started with Crab Rangoon $13 and Shrimp De Jhang $16. Both were very tasty but the Shrimp was oh so delicious!!! You get 6 shrimp and 6 toasted sourdough crostini. For the entree, I ordered Elote Wedge w/chicken. My brother ordered Crab Cakes and Roger had Lasagna. Let's say the Elote Wedge was delicious! It is not the typical Wedge. As you see, it's served on a platter. Sorry, I ate most of it before taking the picture . The Crab Cakes, mashed potatoes, and asparagus were tasty. The lasagne was spicy but delicious. Very large portions you will need a to-go box Top-tier service! Abby was very sweet, funny, and attentive. My brother says she was his waitress a couple of months ago. Ambiance- very casual. I will eat here again!

We stopped in on the way back from Wrigley. Wonderful staff/service. We grabbed a seat by the window and ordered a bottle of wine. Started our meal with delicious meatballs and crispy Brussel sprouts. We split a flatbread pizza with arugula and hot honey. All 10/10. Cute find -definitely will be a repeat when back in the area.

Stopped by on a Sunday and was pleasantly surprised to see that they had a GREAT deal going on, $25 for an entree and side. The portion size is big enough to share (and we still had leftovers). The only down side is that the lasagna and eggplant parm were just okay. The lasagna didn't seem to have any ricotta or any type of cheese aside of what's on top. If it wasn't for the marinara sauce at the bottom of the plate, it would've been too dry as it was just layered meat and pasta.

We were sat really quickly and the waitress was very nice and attentive. We ordered the chilaquiles and the Caesar salad with a chicken cutlet. The waitress warned us the chilaquiles were spicy and oh my gosh they were spicy but really delicious! I wish they had a few more toppings but overall they were very flavorful and the eggs and beans were good! The Caesar salad was my favorite! The chicken was very crisp and the croutons were so delicious! Highly recommend! Also got a cup of coffee that was fine! The restaurant itself was decorated cool and there was a DJ booth! Would be excited to come back for dinner!

Run don't walk to visit this restaurant and try their food. I came here as apart of a special sponsored event, however I purchased a glass of red wine and wanted to highlight their Happy Hour menu. This place has Happy Hour with a range of appetizers, cocktails, wine and beer for discount prices. The Cabernet that I tried was delicious and from California. I was surprised that it had a sweet element to the finish. Happy Hour is done correctly here, any appetizers on the menu are served full size. The bar is sexy, but you aren't limited to the bar. The HH is done for the full restaurant. Stop in for a discounted drink and appetizer and then stay for dinner. You won't be disappointed.

Stop what you're doing and come here ASAP because 1) their Happy Hour is incredible and 2) both their drinks and food here are amazing! We had the pleasure of being served on a Wednesday around 4:30 by Leslie and she was extremely nice and friendly! She took great care of us and always had a nice smile on her face. We ordered several happy hour items such as the Brussel sprouts, Parmesan fries, meatballs, and Caesar salad! All very good and the sizes do not become smaller just because of happy hour which is hard to find these days. Highly recommend anyone check this place out!

The owners of BITES recently opened this nearby spot...and if you know BITES, you know this will also be a huge success. They redid the Hutch space to make it more fun, funky and contemporary. It wasn't super busy but we went on a weekday and anticipate they get busier as the good word gets out. We went on the same day they obtained their liquor license so while they were serving, it was just the basics. The food and service were excellent - loved that the staff was well educated on the menu as it has some unique features (in a good way!).

I passed by before and thought it looks nice from outside. Inside was even cuter! The service was great. Everyone was friendly and kind! I liked how the food didn't take too long even though the restaurant was decently full. We got picanha, Denver and Caesar salad for food and mango spritz and Felix 75 for drinks. Everything was relatively reasonably priced and portions were generous too. No it was not the best food I've had but definitely one of the best sub $30 steak in downtown. The only negative was how I ordered medium rare and the steak came out more medium/ medium well.

Great Happy Hour at Felix!!! Plenty of bites and drink options for a discounted price. Was a little upset to see that the HH menu that was displayed online was not the one we were given. We were looking forward to getting the Spaghetti Croquette's, but they were not on the HH menu when we arrived. Despite that, food and drinks were all fantastic! The fries and Brussel sprouts are my two favorites on the HH menu. The Felix-Rita was an amazing cocktail. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating!!!

I just had the best experience at Felix! The service was amazing. We didn't want for anything all night. Our server came to the table the perfect amount of times, and our water was always full. The food was so good. I got the 1871 burger, and I gotta say, I think it was one of the best burgers I've had in Chicago. So juicy and a nice kick of heat. We've been wanting to try it for a while now, and it didn't disappoint. Very happy. Now we need to go back for brunch!

Went for brunch. Was not crowded and ended up being only ones in restaurant by 2:30pm. Want to go back for dinner to see what it's like. Food and drinks were good though.

You have to come and try this restaurant! We tried this restaurant after seeing their cool Instagram postings. The place looked nice and it was at a great location on Clark near Wrigley Field. We ordered burgers, flatbread, bruschetta, appetizers and pasta. Everything we ordered was delicious. The service was good, but it was busy when we went. I will bring my friends and family here. I want to try other things on the menu. They have events that they feature on their Instagram postings.

I came here for my b-day brunch. Everyone loved what they ordered. We got the crab rangoon dip and the elote salad to share. I got the crab cake benedict. If you have a large group, make a reservation online. I can't wait to come back and try their dinner menu and happy hour!

This place opened at the end of May 2025 and it has been a great go to for their food and happy hour! The happy hour drinks are very well priced and they have a handful of happy hour plates you can share with people. We had the Lasagna, Parmesan Fries, Calamari, Mac n' Cheese, and Caesar Salad. The Mac n' Cheese and Lasagna were the best dishes by far. Everything else was very tasty, too. On top of that, they have a great atmosphere. Definitely coming back.

Update: still recommend and we'll keep going, but had a weird experience today. We came in for happy hour and had a couple drink and apps. Happy hour ended shortly after we got there, and then that same menu had a list of daily specials so we ordered a couple more things. Then when the bill came, those extra things we ordered that were on the daily special were charged at full price. I asked about it and the waitress said that you can only take advantage of one special offer in a day, so because we had those happy hour drinks we weren't eligible to order special of the day items. Just annoying and a little a scammy because 1) that limitation isn't listed anywhere on the menu and 2) the waitress didn't warn us or even offer to match the daily special pricing this one time. She was nice and the service was generally good, but just an annoying scammy situation. Moving down from 5 to 4 stars.

Customer service was great! Food was delicious. Came out quick and hot! Easy to find parking.

Delicious food, incredibly slow service without explanation and confusingly so given there were very few other diners.

Came with a reservation with friends and had a lovely table near the window. Very cute place. The waitress was super sweet, charming, and attentive. She also gave great advice for options. The steak was cooked perfectly. The potato skins were super delicious and a huge portion. The side spaghetti was a massive plate. The elote wedge salad was so tasty. The drinks were strong and delicious. Definitely would come again.

Good service and a very cute inside! The spaghetti coquettes could use a bit extra flavor. The fires were SO delicious!! Burger was good too. I would love to come again and try a flatbread and some fun drinks

What a delightful restaurant. The service is tremendous as well as their entree dishes! What's really cool about this place is there is something for everyone. From delicious pasta dishes to burgers, fish and other yummy dishes you can't go wrong. Wonderful appetizers and salads too!! They have a nice brunch menu on the weekends too!! Place is very modern inside with soothing music allowing for easy conversation too! Definitely a "must stop" if you are looking for delicious food!! You won't be sorry!!!

A friend and I were declined service because the kitchen was closing in 20 minutes. If the restaurant indicates the are open then they are open. My suspicion was because we were declined because we were two hispanic men. We walked over to another restaurant near felix with the same closing hours and were seated. I think Felix should train staff on the city laws and treat all customers with respect. I do not recommend this restaurant and will never return.

Food, service and ambience were all great. We sat at the bar really nice bartender. It was mid week and they had a, wine special, love it. Only downside is they ran out of the special entrée for the night-but we were there kind of late.

We ate here on a Friday evening. They seated us right away, which was great. It was crowded, so we had to wait for our waiter. That took longer. My husband had to flag them down since they were busy. The place had many tables and lots of people, but it wasn't so loud. We were able to have conversations. We ordered the bruschetta appetizer, which was delicious. We also ordered burgers, fettuccine and a margherita flatbread. All were fine, but I think their burgers were very good. If I go there again, I would get another burger.

Ahh! This used to be Hutch. Remember that! This is by the people that's behind Asian Bites. I had their fries & other items. The staff and service are felixriffic.

Came for dinner for the first time and had a great experience! Service was on point and our food and drinks came out fast. We got the crab Rangoon dip, Toscana flatbread and 1871 burger and all 3 were fantastic. The place itself was super cute and quiet enough to easily be able to have a conversation but not so quiet that it felt weird. Can't wait to come back!

We went on a snowy Sunday night and had the place to ourselves. It was excellent. Food was delicious and the Sunday special (entree and side for $25) was a bargain. Highly recommend.

Tried this place for the first time this past weekend and it was great!! We will be returning! The bottomless brunch special was great value and the juice options were perfect! We ordered the burger and the BLT and both were delicious! The bacon was so yummy too- nice and thick and perfectly cooked- also their fries are really great! Service as quick and so nice and friendly. Space is really cute too!

We went to Felix for Sunday brunch with a reservation at 11:30. I immediately noticed the decor which I liked. The DJ was on point with his 80's and 90's music selection. The music was all familiar to me, so I found myself singing along to all the songs. My brunch companion had the goat cheese scramble which he enjoyed. I went with the smoked salmon flatbread which was delicious. The bartender threw down making my Bloody Mary. It was just the right amount of spice and garnished nicely with olives, bacon, celery and a tomato. Do yourself a favor and dine at Felix. I'm already looking forward to dinner dining soon!

First ! Tried the food during the soft opening! Thanks for the invite! Love the decoration and ambiance. Great food! My baby daughter even loved the picanha and grilled asparagus!

We went for happy hour and got a few apps and they were all fantastic. Definitely will be back!

Incredible food & service, met the owner, 1 of the most humble & personable owners, got to meet n take a pic with him, never done that ever before, was the most friendly staff

Stopped by Felix's on Saturday for a late brunch. Was a little sad they didn't have a brunch menu but the restaurant is brand new and will have it up in the next couple of weeks. That being said, we ordered off their lunch and dinner menu and the meals were very tasty. We got the elote salad, burrata and Rueben. The sandwich was probably one of the best Reuben's I've had in the city. The elote salad was also perfect. I was disappointed there were no brunch items but still giving a 5/5 for everything else. I would absolutely come back for lunch and dinner another time. Restaurant was brand spanking new, so very clean and the servers were very attentive.

Great service and atmosphere! Got the BLT on rye, was delicious and definitely loaded with hearty bacon. Live DJ was a great touch and made for a lively experience

Excellent service, food and ambience. Burgers and lasagna were delicious. Definitely going back.

Amazing food and experience! The place is beautiful on the inside and the bar area for dinner and drinks is comfortable and welcoming.

The food and menu looked great. Sadly my lasagna was burnt and dry and did not have much tomato sauce to moisten the lasagna up. The burnt lasagna was just overcooked and literally black on my corner piece. Did not see the server until we wanted to pay and leave. Maybe it was just a bad night. My partner had chicken vesuvio and it was the smallest piece of chicken I have ever seen. Very little sauce too. Drinks were good and maybe it was just a bad night. This is the worst review I have left in years and I still do not was to post this if it was just a bad night but too many flaws in this $100+ tab without tip. But we did leave the normal 25% tip because we love this neighborhood newer restaurant.

Food and cocktails were good and service was great. Large portions and fair prices. Would recommend!

This place is brand new, so keep that in mind. A few areas they can improve on is timing of food- we got apps after dinner entrees and 4 of us got our entrees before (way before) out 5th diner. The food egg plant parm for one of the diners was inedible- stringy and impossible to cut. The potato skins were extremely tiny and looked sad. Overall the kitchen has some work to do and I am hoping in time everything will come together. Iris our server was kind and wonderful and the bussing of the table was good for water refills but we sat with dirty dishes until we left the restaurant. The ambiance is nice with the large windows. If I do return, it will be in time so that they can work on food and service in general. Remember, this is a place that has only been open two weeks.

Realllyyy good man. Super great food. Really good stuff. Even better dudes. Super good. Got me good. Service kinda not super great maybe cause they're new but food was great man. I had a lot of fun man. Get the calamari and that dip they have.

The food was great, the burger definitely being the best thing we had. More than anything the service was wonderful and extremely attentive to our table. Very chill music too
