    We had an amazing experience at Victoria's and on Valentine's Day no less. We had an 8pm reservation and were seated within 10-15 minutes of 8 o'clock. The host and management staff were extremely kind and courteous even though the restaurant was packed to capacity. Our server Sarah was pleasant and cheerful as well as offered excellent suggestions. I had the eggplant which was amazing and my GF had the filet mignon which was cooked to medium rare perfectly. Overall it was a very pleasant experience with great ambiance and definitely worth the price and wait. We will definitely be back! If you're looking for a nice dinner before a show this is the place to go!

    One of the best Mexican restaurants in the Metuchen area. Service: Hostess and servers were welcoming and really provided great service. Even with the pressure of the Valentine’s Day crowd they kept their cool and really kept the operation moving and provided top service. We didn’t feel rushed but they were able to keep us sitting the 2 hr max time slot during for this holiday. Food and cocktails: Sooo delicious. There was nothing we ordered that wasn’t delicious and really well made. The cocktails were perfect. The right mix. Thank you for the great cooks and bartenders. Atmosphere: Super cool. Loved the artwork at the bar. They had entertainment that wasn’t overly loud but really drew our attention. Just a fun place to be on a Friday night. I’ll definitely be back and if you’re in the area you should check it out as well.

    It was good to be back at 1958 Cuban in Westfield- the food and service was once again excellent. We were also pleased to meet the owner who lives in our neighborhood. Highly recommend if you wish to taste authentic Cuban cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere with impeccable service.
