I'm a vegetarian and ordered a dish without the meat. The waitress (an overweight hispanic/Cuban lady in her late 50's) told me I was cheap. Now that's what I call customer service. Will never go back. more

Nothing Special 12/2/2010

The food was not horrible but i was not great either. There was nothing special about this place. I had real Cuban food and it is nothing like this place. I tried it once but would never go again. more

The best cuban food in town 10/12/2009

This is a bit out of my way, and finding parking was a nightmare. My coworker and I took half of our lunch time just to find parking. But the food was worth it, and the con leche was definitely a good ending to our meal. I've tried cuban food in FL, and this is quite comparable. Pros: Good food, simple place Cons: No parking more

RUDE!!!! 5/11/2009

I have eaten at Felix's before and liked it. I took my girlfriend there in this past Sunday, May 10. We sat down and wait like 10 minutes without some one even speaking to us. We ask two different servers for and update and where told ""we will tell your server"". Finally, I caught the attention of a gentleman that was bringing food to another table and kind of motioned to him that we needed menus and was very rudely told ""we will get to you when we get to you"". I didn't believe what I had heard, but a fellow dinner a the next table looked over and said ""I am shocked, I have eaten here for 7 years and never heard them talk to anyone like that.. and that was the manager"". We went inside to ask for an apology and were treated even worse. Needless to say we took our business elsewhere and will NEVER be back. Cons: The rudest dining experience EVER more

Succulent chicken & exquisite rice! 2/21/2009

Wow, what a find! You cannot eat better tasting food at a better place anywhere. Had an outside table on a Sunday afternoon recently and we were completely satisfied with everything that we ordered. Latin style coffee was perfect, Cuban sandwich was delicious, black beans with rice, fried plantains and chicken was spicy and very flavorful. Can't wait to get back there again. Visited some of the many antique shops nearby and then sat down for a truly delicious meal. Don't miss out on this gem of a place! Pros: Selection was large, portions more than adequate, prices fantastic. Cons: Got crowded very quickly. more

Best empanadas around! 1/8/2007

Great place to go for something different in orange county. I try something new everytime and am never disappointed! The black beans and empanadas are to die for. If you are a meat lover I would recommend the carne con papas! The seafood dishes are also very good. Don't forget desert---the tres leche cake is a delicious white cake that is the perfect finish to a meal.....\r The place gets crowded on the weekend, so come early or be prepared to wait..... Pros: The food, cozy and outdoor seating... Cons: At times, the wait.... more

Yummy for my tummy! 7/4/2006

I'm a picky eater, so believe me when I tell you that this restaurant has delicious food. I always get their Chicken Supreme and Steak a la Cubana because they're so flavorful and filling. The salad that comes with the meal isn't anything special. The tres leche dessert is moist and finger licking good. Every time I'm done with my meal, I need to unbutton my pants ;) Pros: Great food & prices Cons: Small space more

MMMMMMMM!!!! 5/30/2006

I have been going to felix's for awhile now and have NEVER had a bad meal. I always get the ""chicken supreme"" dish, and it is awesome!! Its only about 10 bucks and it includes a soup (made from scratch) as well as a delicious desert (GET TRES LECHES CAKE!!). Compared to the bigger chain restaurants, this place just has an authentic flavor that cant be beat. I go there for the food, while the low price is just an added incentive!!!! more

Setting, Service and Spectacular 5/13/2005

I love Felix Cafe! I have had the pleasure of hosting my past two birthday parties there. All though I order the same thing everytime, the food is fabulous. The price is right the portions are enormous and the service is the best. The waiters remember my plate, how my meat is to be cooked, what type of salad dressing I use and always bring me a tres leches when I'm done. I bring new friends and old friends with me on occassion and they always ask, ""when can we go back?"" The cozy dining is what makes Felix so unique. Eating outside or in you can't go wrong. Pros: Service, Outdoor Seating, Steak a la Cubana more

Good food, good prices 4/14/2005

I've been here a couple of times and never had a bad experience. I love to sit outside on the patio and have a view of the circle. The food is always spectacular -love the plantains and the tres leches cake (which I usually can't stand) is delicious!! The price is right, the food is great, and the outdoor dining is wonderful...what more could you want? Pros: good food, inexpensive, outdoor seating more

Flavor and Value 4/7/2004

Felix has fantastic empanadas, and the dinner specials are a great value: about $10 gets you three courses of soup or salad, entree, and a choice of desserts. I highly recommend the tres leches cake. The entree choices include seafood, chicken, or beef and include black beans, rice, and plantains. There's enough to take home for leftovers! Pros: Inexpensive, Good Food more

Cuban & Spanish Flavors 7/21/2003

If you are in the mood for paella or some plantains then you should go to Felix's. I've been going there for a couple of years and it has always served me right. The paella is my favorite dish. This is a very busy place especially on peek hours so make sure you don't have to go somewhere in a hurry. With the ambience of Old Town Orange it's a nice place have a lunch or a casual dinner that won't put a dent in your Gold Card. Pros: Great Food, Location, Great Value Cons: Busy more
