This was our first time at Soul de Cuba Café. We reserved a table for 6 in advance of the band Major Mambo’s show at the café. The place was packed with patrons, and all of the buzz and vibrancy of a bustling, upscale downtown Latin eatery filled the air. We were greeted by Caesar and his team of friendly, welcoming hosts as we settled in. The evening just got better and better. Flavourful, beautifully presented fare and beverages arrived at the table, in the hands of friendly servers, in 5-star fashion which defied the reasonable prices and casual, vibrant atmosphere. The band Major Mambo put on a performance more-than-worthy of the modest cover charge, and entertained us with superior showmanship and musicianship.

This kind of level to making the guest feel welcome and satisfied was on a level not normally seen in Kelowna. I will say the dishes were on the higher side of price, but the flavours were huge and tasty. I imagine the cost reflects the rent of this prime location. Live music on the weekends and dancing under the disco ball. Go here for breakfast and enjoy one the the best cups of coffee you are gonna find in the area. This is a must try...
