Brasserie Felix is exactly what it claims to be: a neighborhood brasserie, with mustard-colored walls, tile floors, the ubiquitous Le Chat Noir poster and French pop music. And the bar feels right -- just crowded enough, just small enough, just cluttered enough to seem appropriate, somehow, in this place that is mimicking some other place the owners had carried in their heads from France all the way to Tennyson Street. It's a good bet for a simple lunch of mussels and frites, and does a good trade during weekend brunch.
Husband-and-wife team Danielle Diller and Gilles Fabre opened Brasserie Felix three years ago on Tennyson, bringing neighborhood French bistro to an area that had supported mostly bars. Today, the Be... More »

Felix is a welcome westside refuge for those who like their comfort food exquisitely prepared, reasonably priced and served in a leisurely fashion. From la soupe a l'oignon to the bouillabaise, there's a lot of hearty lip-smacking available here, but the coq au vin is a particular knockout:... More »
There's not much in this world that's as comforting as a perfectly done plate of steak frites. And in this town, there's no better plate of steak frites than the one coming from Brasserie Felix's kitchen. Good thing, too, because if a restaurant calling itself a brasserie can't knock this classic of comfort-French gastronomy out of the park, it had better just lock its doors.
