Felice Port Chester: A Taste of Tuscany Arrives in Westchester

Matthew Kennedy

New York’s beloved Felice has long been synonymous with warm Tuscan hospitality and refined yet approachable Italian cuisine. Now, the celebrated restaurant is introducing its first Westchester location in Port Chester, marking a new chapter in its storied expansion while preserving the heart of what makes Felice an institution: seasonal ingredients, impeccable wines, and a setting steeped in both history and elegance.

Felice Finds a Home in Westchester

Tuscany Meets Westchester in Felice’s Newest Destination

Situated at 55 Abendroth Avenue, Felice Port Chester is the restaurant’s first location north of New York City, a move that underscores its growing presence while remaining deeply rooted in its Tuscan traditions.

“We’ve been eager to bring Felice to Westchester, and Port Chester is the ideal place for our next chapter. This community values great food, wine, and hospitality, and we’re excited to share the Felice experience in such a vibrant neighborhood.”
Jacopo Giustiniani, Felice Founder & COO

Since its debut on Manhattan’s Upper East Side in 2007, Felice has become a staple of New York’s Italian dining scene, with locations across NYC, Long Island, and South Florida. Each expansion has been marked by a commitment to authenticity, a philosophy that remains intact at Felice Port Chester.

A Menu That Marries Tradition and Innovation

Dishes at Felice

Under the guidance of Culinary Director Iacopo Falai, the menu at Felice Port Chester reflects the restaurant’s dedication to high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, seamlessly blended with imported Italian specialties.

The menu introduces new culinary delights that honor time-honored traditions, such as:

Pizzette Formaggi & Funghi:

  • A perfect harmony of creamy cheeses and earthy mushrooms atop a crisp, wood-fired crust.

Pappardelle Salsiccia:

  • House-made pappardelle with rich Italian sausage, a nod to the comforting flavors of Tuscany.

Branzino al Cartoccio:

  • A signature Felice classic, featuring Mediterranean sea bass delicately wrapped in parchment and infused with aromatic herbs.

Pair these with an expertly curated beverage program, where hand-selected Tuscan wines, small-production organic and biodynamic labels, and craft cocktails highlight the depth of Italian viniculture.

A Space That Honors the Past, Embraces the Present

A Storied Past, A Tastefully Modern Future

Felice Port Chester’s 7,600-square-foot space is more than a restaurant—it’s a love letter to the location’s historic roots. The restaurant resides within a former grain warehouse dating back to 1903, seamlessly blending industrial-era architecture with modern Italian elegance.

Original exposed brick walls, vaulted ceilings, and structural beams remain intact, offering a rustic foundation that’s enhanced by hand-painted European limewash, oiled woods, and warm earthy hues—a visual tribute to Tuscany’s rolling landscapes. The result? A space that feels both timeless and contemporary, exuding the inviting sophistication that defines Felice.

A New Chapter, Same Italian Soul

A New Destination, The Same Beloved Felice Experience

Felice’s expansion into Port Chester signifies more than just another opening—it’s a continuation of the brand’s unwavering commitment to authentic Italian hospitality. With a history that stretches back to its Upper East Side origins, Felice has remained dedicated to crafting an experience that feels as intimate as it is elegant, as refined as it is welcoming.
