Archived Article By Tom Fitzmorris Originally published November 2005 Click here for the current edition Felix's Opens A New Uptown Restaurant Felix's has been throwing seafood at New Orleanians and tourists for nearly sixty years on Iberville Street off Bourbon. That place is still open (half of it, anyway), but now there's a new Felix's, in the space that was until last year Vaqueros--corner Prytania and Robert. (It's the eleventh restaurant to occupy that location over the years.) The new Felix's opened Tuesday with the same outsized menu (there's much more on it than, say, the Acme's menu) that it had in the Quarter. Uptown needed a fried seafood place. By the way, the traditional way to say the name is the French way: "feh-LEEKS." 4938 Prytania. 895-1330. © 2005 Tom Fitzmorris. All rights reserved. news@nomenu.com
