Long before Cuba became a crossroads of cultures, the Taíno and Arawak peoples were cooking from the island’s land and sea—cassava, tropical fruits, native peppers, root vegetables and fresh seafood prepared over open fire. Our special Taíno-inspired menu pays tribute to those early culinary traditions through dishes that reinterpret these ingredients with the spirit and style of Victor’s Café. It is a celebration of the first flavors that helped shape Cuban cuisine and the enduring connection between food, culture and community
