We dined at Felix last night, and, for a Monday, it was quite busy but not full. We were given a good table near the centre of the room from which to view the parade of diners. The French-inspired room is lovely, with subdued lighting,and detailed but not over-the-top decoration. The tiled floor makes it somewhat noisy. The central bar,... More

Excellent service, excellent food. A very traditional but creative menu. Make a reservation before you go for lunch or dinner. More

Wow.. I lunched here today as part of a Recruitment seminar organised by LinkedIn. The retaurant was full (of mostly LinkedIn seminar partiicpants) and the menu was 2 courses of alternate served dishes. I had a smoked salmon entree and fish main and they were both excellent. The service was good and the staff were friendly. The atmosphere is authentic... More

Just downstairs from the gargantuan Ivy Pool Bar, and hidden in a laneway behind city buildings, Felix was already buzzing early on a Monday night. The decor is tasteful pseudo French bistro and the service was quite attentive even though they kept mixing up our orders. The prices are reasonable, and the overall food quality was consistently good. More

Hidden in a laneway behind George Street was this fantastic busy restaurant. Food was sensational, very quick and great value for money. Extensive cocktail and wine menu. Service was exceptional, very attentive staff considering the place was packed and extremely busy. Would definately return. More

I still can't decide whether I enjoyed this place or not. Took a friend here for her graduation, we liked it but didn't love it. The oysters were out of this world. But her souffle had that scrambled egg feel. My pork was lovely & rich but cheese plate was a bit disappointing & I just got that feeling the... More

Been there nearly every month or two for the last couple years. Great bar and great French fare. The wines are excellent and it really is the place to go. You will need to book as even regulars can't always swing a table. Lunch is also very good. Outside is worthwhile if not too cold (they have heaters) especially during... More

Came here for dinner one night and it was great. It was only a week night but the place was packed. Make a reso if you're going to eat here. The decor was really nice, it reminded me of Balthazar in NYC but our table was larger at Felix, yay! Our server was really nice and informative. The complimentary bread... More
