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:

These days Niki's stepson, Vic, is head chef and kitchen
manager. Having grown up immersed in the Cuban culture and
eating Cuban food every day of his 35 years, Vic is enthusiastic
and well-trained in the world of Cuban cuisine. And he's been
cooking in restaurants for years. 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!
