My wife and I celebrated our 46th anniversary at this lovely restaurant. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with warm wishes from the front desk and all the servers. We were treated to excellent service. The food was very tasty, the ambience was “buzzing” and the pianist played non stop, adding to the mood of the room. The complimentary desert was much appreciated.

My husband and I always go out for brunch on New Years Day. This year we were very excited to try Victor. If anyone knows how to do a busy brunch it’s the crew at Victor. The food stations were very well maintained. The selections were plentiful and the service was top notch. The restaurant was beautifully appointed, the food was well laid out, we had a wonderful time. Great start to 2025. We’ll be back next year.
