Sometimes comfort food is more than just a meal — it’s culture, family, and history served on a plate. At Ola’s Cuban Café in Amelia Island, owners Chris Garcia and Marisol Triana have turned a dream (and a $150 leap of faith) into a beloved local spot that blends Cuban tradition with community warmth.
Here’s what we dive into:
The origin story: from Miami nights to starting fresh on Amelia Island 🚚
Cuban coffee, empanadas, and the famous “Cuban Hot Pocket” breakfast empanada ☕🥟
A rich lentil soup with Spanish chorizo, inspired by family recipes rediscovered in Spain 🍲
Classic Cuban sandwiches with house-made mojo pork & citrusy tang 🥪
Comfort staples like beans, rice, and pork, passed down through generations 🍚
Sweet bites: guava & cheese pastries and crispy papas rellenas 🧆
👉 Whether you’re grabbing breakfast on the go, settling in for a hearty lunch, or just craving true Cuban comfort food, Ola’s delivers flavor with heart.
📍 Amelia Island, FL – stop in, sip the coffee, and taste the culture.
