    My experience at The Victor Cafe was amazing. The opera singing was one of a kind and the food was delicious. The staff sang happy birthday to my father and it was very special because it was so unique. Our waited T was so nice and had great recommendations. I’ll be back in the new year!!

    Always a treat for us to go to Victor Cafe to celebrate the holidays with friends and family. Very good food with outstanding service and, of course, the best singing in the entire city!

    Our waitress Luciana was five star in world class, and then, of course, when they ring the bell and this petite little sweet waitress turns into a version of Beverly Sills and Pavarotti. It took our breath away. She blew all the other singers out of the water. We’ve been going to Victor‘s for years. The food has only gotten better than penne. Vodka was out of this world. It’s a destination, dining restaurant you’ll never forget.

    This was our first time dining at The Victor Cafe and it certainly will not be our last! The food was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was fun. The restaurant downstairs and upstairs was beautiful! The professionally trained Opera singing servers were beyond brilliant and to hear their strong operatic voices so close was an experience everyone should have! Thank you for an absolutely delicious dinner and a fabulous evening out!
