Felina

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Where Italian Cooking Meets Striking Design

Felina sits inside The Albion Summit on Springfield Avenue, a 100-room hotel that pairs bold color with elevated comfort in the heart of Summit, New Jersey. The restaurant carries that same sensibility into the dining room: a space described as both stylish and inviting, with an energy that feels alive without being overwhelming.

The kitchen takes a modern approach to Italian cooking — not a strict regional reproduction, but a confident, contemporary interpretation built around handcrafted dishes. Alongside the food, a vibrant bar scene adds to the atmosphere, making Felina as comfortable for a drink and small plates as it is for a full sit-down dinner.

A Wine List Worth Noting

Wine Spectator granted Felina its Award of Excellence for 2025, a recognition that reflects genuine depth and curation on the list. For a restaurant rooted in Italian cuisine, that kind of wine program matters — it means the bottle you choose is likely to be as considered as the food on your plate.

The Setting

The Albion Summit's dining and event spaces extend beyond the restaurant itself, with a ballroom, whiskey lounge, and private areas available for gatherings. Felina anchors the food side of that experience, offering lunch and dinner service as well as outdoor seating when the season allows — a practical plus in a town where a terrace table is rarely wasted.

For those looking for a reliable, well-appointed Italian restaurant in Summit with serious credentials behind the wine program, Felina makes a strong case.
