Blue cheese "dressing?" More like purée.
Manicotti. Hard to mess up, though the sauce was way too sweet.
Angel Hair Pasta with chicken
So much water!
Spinach & Pasta. Do we not drain pasta anymore? SO bland with no flavor of butter, olive oil and roasted garlic.
The strawberry and cheesecake cake. Very dense!

So I am always down to give a local place another chance, (especially one that has been a local's favorite for years), but I m finally done with Fellini's. It's been several years since our last visit (which was just as bad), but they are still in business, so surely something has changed for the better right? Well not really. I hate to give a one star review, I really do. I always think maybe it's an off night, I give them another opportunity to shine, but in this case, Fellini's continues to disappoint.We stopped in early on a Friday night because we had an event to go to. The place was nearly empty and we were seated immediately. All good. It's still as beautiful inside as it has always been, though the booths are very worn and have gotten uncomfortable. I had the Spinach and Pasta, because apparently I am a glutton for punishment. The menu describes it as fresh spinach, sautéed in butter, olive oil and roasted garlic served over fettuccine. Where was that? What I got was watery pasta that hadn't been drained and tasteless spinach. Where was the butter olive oil and roasted garlic? I did see ONE sliver of garlic in the dish, but it was nowhere near roasted. It was raw. Just flavorless. My side salad with blue cheese dressing? I don't know that I would call it dressing really, as it was more a clump of blue cheese in something (see pic), nothing creamy about this. Luckily I am a big fan of blue cheese, so the taste was fine, but the consistency was off.Hubby had the Manicotti, which is kind of hard to mess up. I mean throw a ton of cheese on top and bake it. It was at least edible, though the sauce was on the sweet side. He also had a Ceasar, which was way overdressed.The kid and his girlfriend are big Angel hair fans, so he ordered the Angel hair with marinara and sausage. Again with the sweet sauce. But the sausage literally was tasteless (I tried it) and he didn't eat it. Girlfriend ordered Pasta Romano, which the menu describes as Angel hair pasta with a 2 cheese cream sauce "baked to perfection." Well no, not really. The server did warn when she ordered it, that it was more like a casserole, which was OK. What was NOT OK was how so very dry it was. How about throw some sauce or something in there before baking? I didn't take pics of the kids' food as I was too busy literally pouring the water out of my dish into a salad bowl (which it almost filled).I'm sorry, but goodbye Fellini's. You used to be amazing once upon a time and we used to frequent you. But I just can't anymore. I could have made every dish we had tonight at less than half the cost of our meal...and made it edible. 4 dinners - 2 barely touched, 2 half eaten. When the server asked if we wanted boxes, I almost laughed. But to be fair, the service was good. We won't be back.

So took my little to Fellinis for the first time and my first time in a decade. This place was a semi-regular hangout in my college years. Wasn't quite sure what to expect as this is one of the only places that has stuck around all those years. The service was great. The waiter came by regularly to check on us and kept our glasses full. We started with calamari which was delicious and the serving was huge. The pizza we shared was delicious. It had a thin crust with a nice cross between crisp and soft. Go and give them a try.

The pizza was really good! We got their pepperoni and a specialty cheeseburger pizza that they did for Burger Week. It's a European style so very thin and flimsy. It's not my favorite style but tasted good (so if that's your thing, I highly recommend it). The pizzas are also fairly small but one easily feeds two people. We ordered to go and they were super fast and friendly.

Great food. Fellini's is my happy place. The lasagna is the best in town!! From the moment you walk in, you are immediately hungry because it smells so good.

I like this restaurant, always good service. Nice appetizers (I recommend the bruschetta or mussels), but would come here for the pizza. I suggest getting double dough for any of the gourmet pizzas that have heavy toppings.

Went here as a work gathering; the workers were happy to accomadate such a large size party. They made sure we all had seats and tables together. The restaraunt interior was very unique. Its theme was "home" on the back of the menu had the story of how the owner wanted to give customers a home feel with a home cooked meal to make them feel like they were just at home. It had house lamps, cool jazzy pictures hang up all around, nice dimmed down lights. I love Italian food! I ordered the Rigatoni Pasta which I was not disappointed with (I added my own paramasan cheese all over for an extra kick) It had a light creamy sauces over the noodles, thick slices of italian sausages, and zuchinii! All really goodMy entree came with a side salad as well

Do not get the Bacon Cheese Burger Specialty Pizza for Ghent's Burger Week. They took the inspiration too literally.It tastes and smells like ketchup as the sauce, so you cannot taste any of the toppings. I tried it fresh, I tried it cold, I tried it reheated. Not edible, and $20 for a pizza the size of a disposable plate, is expensive even for a high end Italian Restaurant.Service was prompt, and everyone was very nice. I would recommend a sign where to pick-up to-go orders when there is no host to sit you.

We got the cheese bread Which had onion and garlic in the center and it was to die for, it was fabulous, something different that I had not had before and I loved it and can't wait to go back and get more. We also got the pepperoni sausage pizza with onion and green pepper which was cooked to perfection. The crust was perfect not too thick not too thin. The sauce was delicious and the cheese was just right. Highly recommend this Norfolk locals staple that's been around forever.
