This is a cozy place to enjoy an authentic coffee drink, like what you’d find in Italy. There are plenty of,lattes to,choose from (hot and iced). The prices are good, and there are just enough food, desert and sorbets on the menu, and in the display case to satisfy most people’s hunger or cravings. food items on the menu as well.The background noise inside can make conversation a little challenging but it’s not constant.There is also outside seating and WiFi available.
A fancy cozy place in the Rice Village area, nice and spacious with indoor and outdoor seating and lots to offer. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I got the white chocolate mocha and Almond muffin to keep it simple and it was good. My friends on the other hand went a bit fancy and ordered the espresso Nocciolato which was less of coffee and more of Nutella, - it was sweet! we tried a lot of other sweets too and they were good. They have a lot of items their list and they describe everything that you dont understand. Overall a bit expensive but a cool place to hangout with friends.
I ordered espresso and a latte. The latte was proper, tastes amazing, proper micro-foam, was at the optimal temp.The espresso shot was properly pulled, but I think the beans used for both espresso and latte were dark roast? not sure.I personally think espresso could benefit from vienna or medium roasts where the flavor of the beans could shine, when not doused with additives. So it would be ideal to keep separate, an exotically flavored, non-dark beans for espresso, but considering that its hard to find a properly pulled shot, they get 5 stars I suppose...
Im a lover dark chocolate gelato. So I called in to make sure they have the flavor before take a drive up there. The lady said they have it. I was disappointed when I got there. Its just a chocolate. Workers should know the difference between chocolate and dark chocolate. This location has a very limited flavors. 3 stars only for the gelato part of menu. For more flavors go to Buffalo speedway location.
We had the Italian chocolate (hot pudding) like texture and pastry. Both were excellent and the server was also very informative and pleasant.
Nice place with many indulgences to choose from. The outside seating on a cool evening is enjoyable. I had the Iced Chai Tea Latte it was just right. ✅
Very nice place to sit outside and enjoy a coffee.
Excellent late and a great quiet place to hang out.
Their gelato is my favorite in houston. Make sure you give the Bianco and Nero a try!
Fantastic iced latte - a little on the stronger side which is what I prefer
Honestly I will never dine or get a coffee or anything from this establishment. I was doing a Favor order for this company and one of the employees was extremely rude. I asked did someone have a Favor from here and from jump was getting an attitude and talking to me crazy for asking a simple question. Was not welcoming at all and just made me feel like trash for doing a favor for them. Extremely rude. Didn’t ask if I needed help or anything.
Nice street coffee to stop by. Taste coffee.
Friendly staff, great coffee! I have not tried any of their baked goodies, but the look great. Great place to hang out.
Was very underwhelmed, It has an overall high review score so I was confident in trying it out.Coffee was ok, nothing remarkable for the price. Pastries were dry and flavorless, definitely not worth it.
Everyone is so nice! The coffee is delicious.
Tried many coffee shops around Houston and this was by far the best coffee I had. Highly recommend it. They also had great service. 5 stars definitely.
This charming cafe has traditional Italian beverages - espresso, sodas, limoncello, wines - and Italian desserts, as well as gelato. Excellent latte! The perfect temperature and flavor. As well the service was excellent.
A far cry from an average European coffee shop, but at least a good try. Houston weather is also not helping either.
This place needs renovation or at least some deep clean up.I was there 6 months ago and I have noticed a significant drop in quality of the location. It looks like no one is doing maintenance, and cleaning is very poor. I really hope they will improve because the staff is nice and the products are awesome.
Everything is fake! Fake Gelato and fake plastic napkins. Traditional Gelato is not made with a gluten powder mix.
Nice little sidewalk Cafe on the northern side of Rice Village. Ample street parking nearby. Can order inside and theyll bring your order out to the patio dining area. Good coffee options and tons of pastries. Would definitely visit again
Great coffee and amazing canollis! Very friendly servers as well. Highly recommend
Coffee is great and so are desserts. Great variety of both. All sizes you want.
We go there so often and usually very satisfied with service and everything, today I had a very bad experience with their staff there . I asked the lady for plastic cup to pure water for my sister’s dog, with an attitude she gave me an empty ice cream cup and she told me “ you are supposed to bring your own cup, this cup cost lots of money for us”.... I am so disappointed
Great place for coffee varieties and atmosphere.
Great place to grab an afternoon pick-me-up! Thier regular coffee is a dream, nice and mild, yet sweet enough you dont need any sugar. Thier Gelato is a home run as well. Will be back to try thier pastries!
The cafe latte is delicious! I took it to go. I added a little sugar, as I usually do. I really love Lavazza Coffee! 😊 The gentleman who took my order was polite! The restroom was clean and had a nice scent. I will definitely go back, again!
Love it here!!! Great place!
One of the best coffee places in Houston. Definitely a must go-to place for those seeking a European-style coffee shop.
The service is great from the staff and the coffee is excellent its good and loving their coffee made more.
First, parking here is a death trap that forces you to pay just to not get towed. second, the store is filthy and there isn’t even any customers, employees are just on their phones. third, the coffee here is abysmal, don’t bother getting water to wash it down either because the water cups wreak of soap.
Nice place, drinks and desserts were delicious. There are seats inside and outside.
Great gelato.
Delicious treats. They serve an Italian hot chocolate the likes of which I haven’t tasted since I was in Italy nearly twenty years ago.
My favorite place for a coffee and cannoli
It is the best coffee in the whole USAService and prices are Phenomenal
Nice Cafe with a European feel and nice outside sitting area. Great coffee and Italian deserts.

Nice people and friendly staff, however they need a better barista training as their lattes or cappuccinos are way off...
A nice little cafe hidden in the rice village. A perfect place for coffee and dessert.
I love your Americanos! please never change them!
Coffee is not that great but the location is
Great coffee and good food menu.
Worst service. Ordered a panini, waited for 45 minutes. Only person there. I got up and asked where my order was because.....no one else was even sitting in the cafe? They told me is was “on the way.” I waited another 15 minutes. Mind blowingly terrible service.
Cafe food and the atmosphere here is better than most. I love this place, great food & service.
As always if you step in Fellini cafe you will feel to be surrended with classic italian atmosphere.... Salvatore is an authentic Italian ....no need to choose, whatever e you gonna order wont disappoint you !
Very calm and nice place

Devious dishes with amazing coffee
Best coffee ☕ ever in houston. Definitely better than Starbucks
I came here to study with a friend and I have to say this is a really cute place. The coffee is great and the ambience is up to par. They have a variety of pastries that looked delicious, but unfortunately i did not get to try. More reason to come back!!
This place reminds me a little bit of Europe. The coffee is amazing and doesn’t have a weird aftertaste that you’d find at most places, and their pastries are very nice! I got their panini once, it was just okay but definitely a nice snack
This is a real coffee shop. Hand made espresso! The breakfast and lunch menus are small but the food is good. The service is excellent. They serve beer and wine. Nice modern atmosphere. Paninis are excellent and always a good atmosphere! I’m from Italy and this to me is Italy in Houston!
Best coffee I’ve had so far. I didn’t get the name of the woman who helped me out today, but she was the best. She was very polite, patient and friendly.I don’t think I’ll ever go to another caffe besides this one.The way this place serves the coffee is at the perfect temperature, not boiling hot. I’m so happy with this place, and will sure be a frequent customer.
The staff is always amazing...they listen to the way you want you coffee, food and make sure you are well taken care of! So friendly and oh! Their desserts!!
Found this place when I worked in the area and now get up extra early to make it here when I am scheduled in the area. Best coffee I have found around Houston and most of their food is excellent, expect slightly higher prices than other cafes for this reason. Overall a classy place for classy people if you are into that.
The cappuccino is good.The croissant no.
The coffee here is really good. We got a cappuccino and a caramel macchiato and both were very flavorful! We also got the almond cones and the cream filling was very light and fresh. The cone itself is very puffy and buttery and light! I highly recommend this place! Parking on the street so depends on how busy the time of the day is.
Great drinks especially ice white chocolate mocha!!
The parking around here is a bit of a pain, but certainly fine if you can find one near the cafe - usually 2 hour free parking. Anyway, I came here to meet someone and it was a pretty nice place to chat. Other than that, I had the iced mango tea and it was quite good. It was just mango syrup and tea that they brewed. Nothing too crazy.
Tonight was my first time going to this place. I was very pleased by the phenomenal staff!! Haven’t come across staff this wonderful and helpful in a long time!! Blew me away! Also the food was pretty good as well! The only down fall was parking. It took us a while to figure out we could park on the side of the street even after the time allowed to park on that particular street. I could definitely see parking being nonexistent on weekends. Also, we could not park in the parking garage today.
Cannolis and desserts are excellent. Coffee? Not so great. Ambiance is quaint but not a place that is particularly comfortable. In general, a cute place to go for desserts, not a place I would personally want to go for a study session.
Im still exploring, but so far for me Fellini makes the best cappuccino in town. This location is comfortably air-conditioned with a nook and some tables. It was quiet enough and their food options are great for a cafe: quiches, sandwiches, etc. and Italian baked goods and desserts. We only went for the cappuccinos, but for sure we will be coming back to try the quiche and sweets, too.
Great coffee!!!! I got the caramel latte with coconut milk and it was perfect! Great atmosphere as well
Very lovely place for coffee and/or wine. The manager, Sara, is amazing and leads well with excellent customer service! The coffee tasted delicious as did the 3 different wines I tasted. The pastries and desserts paired well with the wines. Great place for a date night or just to relax and get away from the busy city.
Good over priced Gelato drinks
Delicious italian lunch, breakfast and the all too needed quality coffee and peitite pastries. The staff is amazing and always kind. Plus its fast if you park on the street that is going towards the closest street from the apartments that are to the left of fellini parking is free from 2pm to 6pm.
I have walked by this shop several times while exploring Rice Village. Each time, I was always enticed to come inside by the large, lovely display case full of gourmet desserts. I finally had the chance to try it. Upon closer inspection from inside the restaurant I was able to see that while they boast a huge variety and quantity of treats, I felt they looked a bit old. I ordered one of the cannoli style desserts and it was just okay. The ambiance is good and the salespeople were nice.
Airy space with friendly costumer service. Manager Jose was friendly and helpful in introducing me to some new coffee specials. They also have some good deals when it comes to wines and happy hour. Definitely a place to check out for a pastry too!
I love this place! Its an excellent spot to get some work done or have a nice conversation with a friend. I also really enjoy the set up. I highly recommend visiting.
Nice little shop. Very clean inside and well lit, the presentation of the gelato is really pleasing. The girl that helped us was really friendly and helped me find flavors to pair well together. Not too expensive either I’ll definitely be returning. They do need a banana flavor gelato though!!!!!
They say you dont know what you got until its gone... My husband and I used to live in the apartments above Fellini in Rice Village, but we moved late last year across town. The thing I miss the most about living in that area - FELLINI BY FAR! It is the BEST coffee Ive had in Houston (and Ive lived here for 26 years of my life). Every time were in that area of town I have to go. Get your coffee here. You wont be disappointed!
This place is like a breath of fresh air - refreshing and pleasant. Definitely a hidden gem fit for VIP out-of-towners looking for a taste of the city. Its quaint, urban, and classy, all at the same time. Menu is standard with a few showstoppers (if you go looking).
