Welcome!

Victor's 1959 Café is celebrating 10 years of bringing great Cuban food to their South Minneapolis neighborhood!

Owner, Niki Stavrou, is actually Greek, but she learned all about good, simple, authentic Cuban cooking from her Cuban born ex-husband.

Last summer, Guy Fieri from the Food Network's popular show Diner's Drive-ins and Dives, visited the cafe and cooked up some "Off the hook Cuban food!" with Niki in the kitchen. They had a blast. If you missed this episode you can watch it on You Tube: click here to watch it now!

These days Niki's stepson, Vic, is the executive chef. Having grown up immersed in the Cuban culture and eating Cuban food every day of his 37 years, Vic is enthusiastic and well-trained in the world of Cuban cuisine. Together Vic, Niki, and an awesome crew work hard every day to continue bringing you the best Cuban food in Minneapolis! It's a family affair :)

Watch for our new "fritas" coming to the menu soon. What are "fritas"? The best little Cuban burgers you ever tasted!

Thank you for helping us make it to this 10-year milestone! We are proud and committed to continue sharing these traditional Cuban recipes with you in a relaxed, casual and festive Cuban environment. Welcome to a little piece of Havana in South Minneapolis!

Viva Cuba! Viva Cuba libre!
