    Cubano sandwich
    Donald E.

    Went here on (4/7/26) for lunch First time here! Had a yummy Cubano sandwich! Had great service! And I love the ambiance in this tiny Cafe! I have to come back and try the other Cuban dishes!

    Dia Y Noche
    Emily A.

    Visited 10/18/25. Victor's is a south MPLS staple! Such a good breakfast spot that stands out from the rest. If you're there on the weekends or with a group larger than 2, prepare for a wait, especially in the colder season but it's worth it I promise! So much fun character in the decor as a whole and always the best energy inside. I find myself always taking friends here to "introduce" it to them. This time I got the cold brew which was easy to drink but they had quite a few drink options. Their juices are also phenomenal. I've tried a few things here but I always come back to the Dia y noche (eggs rice beans plantains with a creole sauce) with the upgrade of Cuban toast with guava jam. If there's one recommendation I can consistently make it's to always upgrade to the Cuban toast. It's incomparable. The sauces here also are wonderful and make each meal shine. My friend got the omelet and loved her first visit here. Victor's is simply the best.

    Cuban Toast

    This was only the 2nd time I've eaten here but as expected it was great! Service was great, and I really appreciated how relaxing and not rushed everything felt. Our food was great, I really loved the green sauce on the arroz a la cubana, and my friend enjoyed their ranchero cubano and pancake. Definitely a place to go back to time and time again.

    Large mango pancake ($7.25). Packed with fruit and covered with mango sauce!

    Genuinely my favorite breakfast/brunch in the entire Twin Cities metro! Victor's is a small place--maybe a dozen or so tables?--but man is the food delicious! If you go on a weekend, expect a wait, but it's so worth it. To start with the coffee, you can't go wrong with any of their espresso drinks--they're all delicious and made with their house-made sugar paste, and with any espresso drink, you can get topped up on drip coffee afterwards so it's SUCH a good deal. My go-to is the cafecito ($3.95), which is simply espresso with the sugar paste. For the food, you genuinely cannot go wrong with any of their Breakfast Cubano options, but regardless of what you get--pay the upcharge for cuban toast (+$1.25) with guava jam (+$.35). TRUST. My number one go-to as far as entrees is the arroz a la cubana ($15.95). 2 eggs, white rice, sweet plaintains, and yuca frita. Sounds simple but I genuinely cannot overstate how insanely good this is--the mojo sauce they put on the yuca is one of the best things I've tasted in my life and it's DIVINE topped with some of the house hot sauce they have on the tables. It's also a non-negotiable to get the mango pancake! At $7.25 for a large, it's a steal, because that thing is MASSIVE and packed with fruit. They have a itty bitty parking lot that literally fits two cars, but there's plenty of free street parking available--even on the busiest of days, I've never had to park further than a block away. Do NOT sleep on Victor's in 2025 folks!!

    Stopped here on our Triple D tour. The Cuban sandwich here made me a fan, it was so good. We also got the heart shaped dessert which was amazing! Service was great. Environment is unique and you should definitely stop here!

    This is a Twin Cities staple located in the Kingfield neighborhood. Parking is available via the street. When busy you can have a little bit of a walk but it's a neighborhood so it's a good area with some shops near by. Also, they are busy and it's first come first serve so plan on a wait. They do a great job of getting people in and out. The wait is never terrible and they are good communicators. They are known for their Cuban dishes and coffees. This is easily one of my favorite breakfast spots, as well as serving some great lunch dishes as well. The food here is really flavorful & quite delightful. Victors is also woman-owned & they have been featured on the Food Network twice which is neat! They are open Wednesday - Sunday 9am-2:30pm. I wish they were open for dinner again like back in the day.

    ROPA VIEJA
    Dave O.

    Victor's 1959 Cafe popped up on my radar when looking up restaurants to try in the Twin Cities. None other than Guy Fieri said that this is the best Cuban sandwich he has ever had. Add to the fact that this place is almost next door to where I was staying and I knew I had to stop by. This place is small so the first time I went I ordered a Sandwich Cubano and Cortadito coffee to go. The coffee was on point but the sandwich blew me away. I couldn't believe how good it was. The ham was top notch and the pulled pork was so flavorful and tender. This was beyond my expectations. I knew I had to go back and try something else. Two days later I arrived shortly after opening to dine in. Only about a 15-20 minute wait but well worth it. This time I decided to try the Ropa Vieja and a chocolate con leché. The Ropa Vieja was very good but this time I had some of the homemade hot sauce to add to my rice and beans and that took it next level. I always like to order a Sandwich Cubano to go before I head to the airport on my way home. The only downside to this place is the short hours (9-2:30) and being closed on Monday/Tuesday.

    Fricasee de Pollo*
    Joan L.

    I have had this restaurant bookmarked for many years and was truly excited to go! We walked in and didn't wait very long until a table opened up. The greeter and our server were polite and friendly. The restaurant is a bit small on the inside, maybe 8 tables total, but the ambiance is unlike any other restaurant I've been! Love the graffiti walls! As to the food, the best dishes were the Fricasee de Pollo and the empanadas. The chicken was stewed and cooked well, and I loved the olives with tomato sauce! The empanadas were stuffed full and tasted great! The other dishes had some issues that led to a somewhat unpleasant experience. The pork (Lechon Asado) was porky and this affected my overall enjoyment. The Ropa Vieja was cooked through, but the meat was not pull-apart/fork tender. Was difficult to eat and enjoy, especially the pieces I tried in a tortilla. The corn pancake came highly recommended so ordered a medium one to try. Came out looking beautiful, but the texture was claggy and had a burnt, bitter aftertaste. Not as much 'corn' flavor as I expected a Corn Pancake to have.

    Huge breakfast platter was A+
    Elizabeth S.

    If you go on a weekend morning expect a wait, but it's worth it for the ambiance alone. Every inch of the place is covered in quick scribbles, graffiti, names, stickers, and a curious amount of bitcoin website urls? But the vibe was great. I had the Cubano which was fine but didn't land as The Best Cubano I've Ever Had however my friends' breakfast platters were huge and hit the hangover cure spot. Above all else, the service was outstanding. Although packed, our server was extremely timely with orders, drinks and food, and he made sure to check in often without being obnoxious. Definitely will be going back to try something new and hopefully bump up to 5 stars

    The restaurant is incredibly tiny so you'll be placed on a waiting list and likely have to stand outside. We came during lunch on a Wednesday and had about a 20 min wait but thankfully it was a relatively mild winter day so it wasn't bad! The wait is absolutely worth it!! Ever since going to Little Havana in Miami (the closest I've gotten to authentic Cuban food, I'll get there someday), I had been craving some Cuban deliciousness. As soon as I saw Ropa Vieja on the menu, I. Was. Sold. I ended up ordered a beef empanada, the Lechon, shared a cubano sandwich with my nephew, and he also ordered the hash. It was a ton of food! We left with a lot of great eats for dinner and filled to the brim tummies. The Lechon had really great flavor and was incredibly juicy, same with the cubano! The empanada and hash seemed to have similar pulled beef, peas, and a few other veggies but like everything else - the flavor just bursts in your mouth. It was absolutely delicious!

    A friend recommended this spot and I'm so glad I went. It's a tiny little spot in the southwest part of Minneapolis. You feel like you've stepped into a real cuban restaurant - the music, the food and the environment are just perfect! Prepare to wait or arrive just as they open! They only seat about 50 people! I had the omelet with cuban bread. Both were pretty good. My husband had the steak and eggs - that was amazing!ll The house coffee was good and strong. I also had a little cuban cappuccino that was really good. Definitely check this place out - not only good food but a whole experience!

    Picadillo a la Cubana
    Jay S.

    It might be no exaggeration to say that Victor's 1959 Cafe is my favorite breakfast / brunch spot in Minnesota. There truly is something for everyone, ranging from the meat lovers to the vegetarians (fewer options for vegans). Their food is delicious. They are affordable. They have decorations and vibe that screams down with the people. They have many options on the menu that make one eager to return to try new items. Simply the perfect brunch spot. To start, rice and black beans is simply a classic combination that one should always have on their repertoire. It is not conventionally regarded as fancy food but it will always do you right, tasting good, providing health benefits, and serving other types of food (like meat) justice as complements. Then the plantains, you need to have them if you are in a Cuban (or even Latin American in general) restaurant. Along with yuca bites, plantains are must-haves. Now the meat: I have had ropa vieja and picadillo before and I will strongly recommend ropa vieja because the shredded texture together with the "falling apart" quality of the flank steak is just too pleasant to ignore. Picadillo is good as well. It's just the flank steak vs. ground beef argument here. Sandwich Cubano is their staple. The combination of roasted ham and pulled pork, combined with cheese, mustard and pickles, can provide people with a juxtaposition of flavors that gives savory a new dimension of saltiness (pickles). The pickle flavor is very eminent, which can be a hit or miss depending on the consumers, but I say if you are in a Cuban restaurant, you should adjust your taste buds to experience the value of the flavor combination with Sandwich Cubano. If you are just looking for breakfast, they always have solid options that combine beans / eggs / plantain / more, depending on your combination preferences. The main difference between their breakfast dishes and entrees is that most breakfast dishes have eggs, basically. There are so many items I have yet to try there that I really want to, such as their ceviché, their paella, their flan, and even their champagne mojito. I will for sure return because of all this! One major factor for all to consider is that they are extremely popular, which means lining up and waiting will be inevitable, especially during brunch / lunch time on weekends. Their space is relatively small and people just line up outside to wait. I can attest to that the wait is most definitely worth it. Please give this spot a shot!

    Attentive service. Delicious food. It was pretty busy on a Saturday, but we were seated fairly quickly. It has a "hole in the wall" vibe, there is writing all over the walls, but it's a neat place. Outdoor seating available. One hole unisex bathroom. I had the black bean burger. The fam had the Cuban sandwich (loved it), French toast (enjoyed it) and the other roast pork sandwich (really good). This was my third time there. I'll be back. And I told some friends about it.

    Yes. We were there in winter so patio was closed. But I am sure once it warms up, and it will someday, there will be a patio again!

    Not yet. Hope to start indoor dining sometime this summer. For now we’re offering takeout & delivery. Thanks for thinking of us!

Recently my adult son, adult daughter and I gathered for a weekday breakfast at this trendy place. In my experience the descriptor "trendy" often has a somewhat negative connotation. It can be associated with long lines, high prices, harried staff and mediocre food. IMHO none of those things are associated with The Breakfast Club. We started by sharing an order of Monkey Bread [ (roughly a cinnamon/caramel dough baked in a bundt pan (or at least something round and hollow)], topped with icing and with sections that one may tear off). A bit messy but overall a great start to the day. My son and daughter both ordered more conventional breakfasts and both were very pleased with their choices. I went with the Senor Borracho which I found flavorful and delicious. I love a good Huevos Rancheros and the Borracho is an interesting twist on the classic dish. Service was excellent. The coffee was decent and mugs were kept full. Noise didn't seem problematic. Parking could be an issue at times.

    Tried it for the first time today after seeing it a few times. I had the Hope Waffle and a nitro…read morecold brew that were kinda good, but definitely not worth the price. The service was fine, and the atmosphere was okay.

    Hope Breakfast Bar is continually one of my favorite places to grab breakfast, and I've now been to…read morefive of their locations. This time our family tried the 5th Avenue Minneapolis location right across from Twins Stadium. Quick tip, park in the garage facing the restaurant on the left side. It's an easy elevator ride up and the signage makes it simple. Matt was our server and did an outstanding job. Great service always makes a difference. Beverage options were excellent too, stuff for everyone, mimosas, specialty coffee drinks, and really solid drip coffee. The menu has a great balance of savory and sweet, so naturally we tried both. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, a BLT on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, pancakes with fruit, and a croissant-waffle fusion with lemon and sweet cream. Honestly, everything was delicious. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. These restaurants just feel comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy with family or friends. I'm excited they're coming to Maple Grove, but I'll still keep visiting the St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis locations too because I want to see our cities and local businesses thrive.

    Visited 4/11/26. Back at the Kenwood for brunch and it really never disappoints. My sister and I…read moremade a reservation in advance and were seated right away. I never find it too difficult parking in this neighborhood and managed to find street parking fairly easily. On this occasion, I got the huevos rancheros and my sister got à la carte options of an egg and fruit cup, fries, and a pancake to share. Cannot rave enough about the pancakes here and I'm not even a pancake person. Everything else was delicious and special shout out to the kenwood for the complimentary banana bread with the best butter ever. Definitely a worthwhile brunch

    Stopped in after a ride around the Chain of Lakes. Ate outside and it was lovely. When asked for…read morerecommendations, the waiter said that if you loved baloney sandwiches as a child, the TK Mortadella was an upscale version, basically what baloney wished it could be. I have NEVER been a fan of baloney, but something about the way he described it made me want to try it. To be safe, we also ordered a pulled pork sandwich to split both. One ordered fries and one a salad, again, to split. That TK Mortadella was sooo good! Amazing blend of flavors on delicious house-made focaccia. The pulled pork was also good, but when I go again, I'm getting the mortadella. Cute inside, very nice service. Per usual, I forgot to take pix when the food first came out, so don't judge them on presentation. :)
