About Fellas

Opening Winter 2025 in Los Feliz, Fellas is a refined Italian comfort food restaurant marrying rustic countryside charm with elevated technique. Think hearty pastas, slow-roasted meats, seasonal vegetables — all served in a woodsy, whimsical space that feels like escape without leaving the city.

Our Cuisine

The menu draws from traditional Italian home cooking : handmade pastas, house-fermented sauces, wood-oven breads, braises pulled low and slow, delicate desserts — every dish calibrated for balance and finesse.

We source local, organic produce and ethically raised proteins. Flavors lean honest : herbs, mushrooms, slow roasted garlic, wild-greens — nothing overdone.

Full bar program with elevated takes on Italian classics, curated wines, and non-alcoholic pairings.

Leadership & Team Culture

Headed by Sam Morrill, former partner at Night, and Sandra Luca, the team brings FOH & operations leadership from top Los Angeles establishments.

We believe in hands-on training, clear growth paths, and accountability — every role matters from prep line to front-of-house.
