Guava's Cuban Cafe

"valentine’s day brunch with my fiancé, and for some unfathomable reason there’s barely anyone here. this is the definition of a hidden gem. certainly one of the best breakfasts in minneapolis AND great coffee!! AND kindhearted service "

"Have been here thrice. The sweet plantains were decent. The steak for the entree(churrasco steak frites) was well done & I had requested medium rare. The guy immediately refunded me for the entree & brought another batch of steak which was medium rare & this was on the house. Amazing customer service!. 2nd visit got the ropa vieja bowl which was pretty good. The papa rellena was good however $8 was definitely not justified for the portion. 3rd visit got the vaca frita which I did not enjoy. All desserts(Guava cheesecake, coconut flan, tres leches) I have tried were phenomenal. Will definitely be back."

"Excellent food, fun vibe, fast service and reasonable prices. Staff was courteous and explained all the dishes. Maduros were perfectly done, ropa veija was tender and juicy, masitas, croquettas and papa rellena were delicious. Salsas felt Americanized, but not in a bad way. Coconut flan was top notch. I liked the attention to detail - in the food, decor and stuff like water. Once sip and you can tell its purified with reverse osmosis. Will be coming back again!"

"If nothing else, come for the breakfast potatoes! Eggs were cooked perfectly. Steak was a little under but still tasted delicious. Coffee is very strong in a good way. Wish I'd found this place sooner."

"Had a vacation day and decided to finally check this place out. Food was super tasty. I had the breakfast sanguish with bacon side of guacamole and potatoes. Really good, egg was just slightly soft which was perfect for me. I do think it would be better in the Cuban bread than the croissant. My husband had the havanna plate and really enjoyed it also. Highly recommend, we’re going to come back and try dinner."
