Set in a gorgeous, regal setting with the looks of a quaint old church somewhere in Tuscany, the room is large and dramatic but still preserves it's intimacy. This restuarant is perfect for a romantic date. I have no idea why, but last Saturday night the place was half empty. The food is incredible, meticulously prepared, but not precious or delicate. The organic chicken with broccoli rape, wild striped bass, or any of the specials are standouts. Desserts are equally delicious; try the tiramisu and praline tart-it's pure heaven. Service is knowledgeable and not intrusive. Attitude is suprisingly, and thankfully, lacking here. The couple next to us were in jeans and T's, so dress code is lax, but you will want to look fabulous while eating here. Pricey, but who cares? It's well worth it!

I went there about 2 years ago and it was an amazing experience. As for expensive, I disagree with it being overly priced. You are paying for an excellent meal and it is a price I do not mind paying. Decor is beautiful and grand. Like a grand ballroom on a brisk winter night. I love the place and will continue to go and enjoy the pleasures Scalini Fedeli has to offer. A genuine experience

Yes, it's expensive, and maybe even a little intimidating. But the chairs are very comfortable, as is the slightly subterranian space with its vaulted ceilings (at least that's how I remember it!) The Italian food here is innovative and delicious. The kitchen resists the tendency to trot out old Italian favorites in favor of fresh ingredients and new preparations. The pastas are exceptional. Good, broad-range wine list.
