Aruna K.

Felina's in the Newark Airport is part of the SSP America's group that brings various tastes to the airports. They claim to bring authentic foods that can tell culinary stories while awaiting to reach your next destination. This Italian restaurant is quite neatly maintained. Got the White pesto arugula - no meat option, (more out of curiosity as I really wanted to know what that meant, I thought pesto was always green). I learnt that pesto has nothing to do with green, it actually means to 'crushed' in Italian. The base for the white pesto has walnuts as one of the main ingredients, so if you have nut allergy ..beware! It was still green but had hints of white in it too. Taste was really good. Like most Italian dishes, it was about making it simple and flavourful. Also got the only dessert I saw on the menu, the Tiramisu. This one disappeared in less than 5 min (I think), it was super delicious and totally melted in the mouth. Their rating is low because of their service. Maybe being up and about since 4 am gets on to them....but its not like the customer put them up to that task, is it.... Would definitely want to stop here again, but maybe take a togo.

Kale Caesar salad subbed with shrimp (usually comes with chicken)

Probably one of the better airport options. The food was decent but service awful - food takes forever to come out (and then mine came out wrong), and no one stops by to refill your water or is otherwise around to flag down if you have issues. Others near me ordered pasta which looked good.

Avocado toast - can only get it w scrambled eggs
Irene S.

So... was so looking forward to a hearty bfast before my morning flight to find that most things on their online menu did not exist. There's no fried eggs or potatoes so resorted to their avocado toast which I added egg whites to, to find out it didn't exist. I asked the lady then can you give me a cup of coffee since it's about the same cost... she was making a big deal how it was 50 cents more... seriously?! She did ultimately give me a cup but still why make it an issue when their menu needed to be updated so badly! I also ordered a grapefruit juice to then find out that wasn't available. .

Spaghetti Pomodero and pasta prices
Jane D.

I ordered a pasta to-go and was expecting meatballs as the item I ordered, Spaghetti Pomodero, stated "Felina Beef, Pork, Veal Meatballs and Pomodero Sauce" verbatim. I waited around 15 minutes for the pasta and when I received it, it was only spaghetti and sauce. If you're gonna advertise protein in your spaghetti, I expect at least a few chunks of each item over spaghetti. When I went back to speak to the staff about it, they were disrespectful and rude, expecting me to understand that almost $30 ($29.65 to be exact) gives you a small plate of noodles and that if I had wanted meatballs LIKE IT HAD STATED on the item it would have been an extra $10 charge. The woman at the register tried to argue with me. I ended up getting a refund after standing my ground. If this business wants to improve, give what is stated or edit your menu item. Nobody is going to pay $40 for Olive Garden spaghetti and meatballs with your employees attitudes.

Fast service, clean, & kind staff (Carmen was wonderfully pleasant). Bucatini was delicious!!

The rigatoni bolognese is absolutely terrible and tasteless. I could barely even eat a few bites. Kraft macaroni and cheese taste better made by a 5 year old. I even tried to add parm and red pepper flakes for some flavor. Still nothing. Such a bummer way to leave the NE with the worst pasta of my life but the milestone has now been met. "Congrats everybody! You Made it! the world's worst bowl of pasta in the NYC area! "

Cacio e Pepe on Rigatoni

As airport restaurants go this one was not too shabby! I was greeted with a smile from Elizabeth, the kindest most attentive server I've had at an airport for as long as I can remember (and I travel A LOT!) The food was simple but tasty. No complaints here. But honestly it was the service that was above and beyond. I was surprised to read reviews to the contrary. What I can tell you is if you are at Newark and looking for a good meal with fantastic service come here and see Elizabeth!!

Mushroom rosemary pizza and Iron & Stone Cabernet.
Tina H.

It's an airport restaurant. Pizza was good, but $50 for a personal pizza and small glass of wine wouldn't be a regular go-to for me. Service was friendly but a little slow.

a plate of food and a glass of wine
Kristen T.

What a cute spot in the new beautiful gleaming terminal a of Newark airport! Service was excellent and the chef Yvonne even came out and introduced herself and asked how I liked my dish that I asked for customization on. I had the kale salad and a glass of rosé and asked to get blackened shrimp added to my kale salad. It was so good! She then complemented their executive chef Ramel. highly recommend you make a stop here on your way in or out of Newark airport! Additionally, the executive chef just came out to surprise me with a Complementary dessert, which he made himself after I shared with him that I was the first to review this business. What a special treat!

As long as you're just gonna eat and drink water, this place has good food but they charge $15 for a beer and $25 for a well drink

It is an…read more"old school" family recipes, incredible service, fantastic food, and simply an amazing restaurant. My only concern is that they don't see to be busy enough for how good they are! We had 6 of us. Every single thing everyone ordered looked incredible. (I mean, I don't really care for muscles, but I could absolutely see the love cooked into even that dish.) I wish them every success and I'm already looking forward to visiting again next time I'm in the area!

"You won't want to cook anymore" he tells us a bit later. He's not wrong. I had the fish special, cod, served puttanesca, with mash potatoes and spinach. He had the rigatoni bolognese. Perfectly cooked pasta. "Everything is homemade," Angelo explained later. Smart and fairly well-priced wine list. We asked why the 2020 Carparzo Brunello di Montalcino was so low priced, and learned the wine has been priced the same since their father closed their Upper East Side location and the kids opened in Newark. "New York food at NJ prices," Angelo explained. "I've never had tiramisu I've liked better", husband told me. "I've never had flan Ive liked better" I told him. (It is coconut flan.) Great service. Wonderful spot. And Bon Jovi has been in twice, most recently he brought his wife. Enough said.

The food is probably the closest you can get to actual Spanish tapas but what i love most about this place is that everythings got flavorrrrr For our table of 4 we got CROQUETAS with their house cured chorizo- very good POLLO FIORENTINA- chicken was so tender and packeddd with flavor! BARRIGUITA- plentiful serving for a tapa, we loved the potatoes it came with too CHICHARRON DE POLLO- flavorful chicken and easier to eat than you think TARTAR- delish but small Chipirones- sooo delicately breaded you can barely tell, was great COSTILLA A LA PLANCHA- plentiful for a tapa, we recommend cooking for longer since its traditionally a tough cut of beef SAUTED VEGETABLES- tastey and not mushy thankfully!

When I was there, they had a DJ playing, and it added energy without being too loud or overwhelming. The Service was very good, the waiter answered and helped with all our questions. The food was absolutely amazing really flavorful and well done. Just be a little prepared that most dishes come in smaller portions. But the quality definitely makes up for it. I ordered the paella, and it's easily enough for two or even three people and it was well worth it. Really delicious. The drinks were also definitely worth trying while you're there. The only thing I wasn't big on was the desserts they didn't quite live up to the rest of the meal. But overall, great atmosphere, excellent food, and a fun experience. I'd definitely come back.

I always love trying something off their seasonal pizza menu; during my most recent visit, I loved their maple bacon pizza, which had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. They don't accept reservations, so expect it to be pretty busy, especially during the weekends. Note that they also only have a limited cold food menu during the off hour between lunch and dinner.

Love going in the warmer weather when they open up the doors and have the bar serving on the patio. And let's face it, if you know anything about Arite's you know that there will always be a wait on the weekends. Having the bar and the patio makes waiting a breeze! The food is seriously better than ever. I actually think the pizza is even better at this new spot than the previous location. The sleeper favorite for me is the maple bacon pizza. Takes the white pie to another level and has become a go to for me. Always, I repeat always, order the meatballs and save the sauce for your pizza crust. The farmers salad is always a must for me as well. No one does a salad like Artie's. Give this place a shot because trust me, you won't be disappointed.

The moment you walk in, the hospitality wraps around you the staff genuinely makes you feel like family. That kind of warmth is hard to fake and even harder to find.

I had very high expectations going in, but unfortunately, this experience was a major letdown. The food was just not good. The pasta was bland and needed extra salt and pepper. The arancini balls tasted like they had been frozen and lacked flavor. The steak and fries were tough, and the only noticeable flavor was a strong peppery taste. The restaurant itself is cute, and I do recommend making a reservation. The open/close concept is a nice touch and adds to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service was also disappointing. Our server seemed confused, and another staff member had to step in when we mentioned the arancini. We were told they were supposed to be that way, but arancini should have a warm, cheesy pull -- not a frozen texture. I had high hopes because of Wing Bar, but this visit did not come close to that experience.
