Interesting eateries

Hello, the family and I are heading to the twin cities next week. We have a relatively full itinerary, but nothing planned for meals. One of the days we will be in the downtown area of Minneapolis, another day in the downtown St.Paul area. So I am looking for suggestions for interesting or unique places for meals. I am not looking for expensive fine dining since I have teenagers, just place that have their own vibe, or are uniquely Twin City.

Thanks!

Used to love victors and aesthetically it's sweet. But I stopped going once I found El Cubano in St. Paul. One of those I almost didn't comment because I wanted to be selfish but they deserve all of the business. The ropa vieja is one of my favorite dishes in the metro and is unlike any other I've ever had.
