Last week Jamie and I had dinner at Casa Felix, an underground pescaterian restaurant, and I just have to post a quick rave about the place! Casa Felix is a “closed-door” restaurant located inside the house of chef Diego Felix. After arriving at his house in the neighborhood of Chacarita, we were warmly greeted at the door by Diego and welcomed into his house. He showed us around a bit, then led us to the garden where people were socializing and enjoying delicious frozen pear and cachaca cocktails. After getting to know some of the other dinner guests, we were seated in the dining room at one of the two tables. It was a larger then typical guest-list of about 18 people. The five-course dinner was delicious and flavorful, from a spicy hummus spread to the cool melon based soup, the main-course was a perfectly grilled salmon fillet and mixed vegetables. I’ll leave the food reviews for those more adept at that kinda thing, but let me just tell you… it was GOOD! The company was fun and talkative, our conversations lively and we left having made a few friends. The experience of dining at Casa Felix was cozy yet distinct, definitely a one-of-a-kind experience not to be missed. There are many articles and reviews on Casa Felix, check out a few of them below.
