Welcome!

A little history about us, for you... When Victor’s 1959 Café opened in April 1999 we were excited about bringing great Cuban food to our south Minneapolis neighbors – and we still are! What we couldn’t have imagined was that all these years would pass and we would have the pleasure of not only being part of a wonderful community, but that we would receive guests from all over the world, making new friends and meeting so many amazing people.

Viva Cuba! Viva Cuba libre!

About Take-Out Orders:

We do offer our full menu for Take-Out and we do a lot of Take-Out business. However, sometimes we can’t take an order if the kitchen is super busy with our in-house customers. Our little kitchen can only do so much!  So, we want you to know that if you call to place a Take-Out order, we will definitely do it for you whenever we can!
But sometimes we might have to say “sorry, we can’t do it today” and it breaks our hearts when we have to say no…. (FYI, it’s usually on the weekend days that this is likely to be the case). 
So don’t be shy about calling, just don’t be mad if we can’t do it that day please and thank you!

If your Take-Out order is large or for a party or special event, please contact Niki by email in advance to see what can be arranged.  One to two weeks advance notice is best depending on the size of your order.  Email Niki at cafe1959@gmail.com.
