Felix Continental Cafe

"Felix Continental Cafe is a very long standing Cuban restaurant located at the Orange Plaza Square traffic circle at the intersection of Chapman Ave and Glassell Street. The parking tends to get difficult here so I recommend parking at the Old Towne West Parking structure which is a 5 minute walk and is free. I used to love coming here when I was in college as the food was amazing. This time the food was good but not amazing. We started with the Calamaritos Fritos Gran Via (Calamari) and the calamari pieces were thick and cooked correctly but the flavor was just ok. As a main I had the Caribbean Delight which was good but not excellent as I was hoping. My daughter tried the Chicken Cordon Blue which she thought was excellent but it is quite a bit different than normal Cordon Blue so be prepared. Service was excellent, quick, and friendly. The plates come with a good amount of food for very reasonable prices."

"Let me start by saying everything offered in this restaurant is Delicious. I stated off with a bowl of Lentil soup which was almost a meal in itself. Next for an appetizer I had Empanadita Criolla which is made with ground beef and the fried Calamari. For the main course I ordered Rabo Encendido which is Oxtail Cuban Style meat so flavorful n tender. Washed it down with a Sangria. Finally for dessert Bread Pudding. I was so full but, so satisfied with my meal I highly recommend Felix."

"We ordered the sampler plates and they were absolutely delicious. The plantains were crispy on the outside and sweet and juicy on the inside. The spinach was creamy and flavorful. The meats and onion were really well cooked. Wonderful hole in the wall spot."

"(7/12/2023) First time Cuban Restaurant and it was pretty good in my opinion. Service was friendly, and food came fast as well. Oxtail was definitely must try here because it had fatty that easily chewing and delicious overall. Also, Felix Combination was tasty as well that had lots of different ingredients in it. Creamy Spinach also good in my opinion. Because of this place, I would try more Cuban food in the future."

"Lots of food for the price. The service was excellent, as the waiter made sure to take precautions for my gluten allergy. I had a separately prepared red snapper with the sofrito, beans, and rice. My friends enjoyed the appetizers, paella, and plantains. It was $100 for 5 dinners with appetizers and salad and dessert, no drinks."
