This is now our second visit to Victoria's and it was just as fantastic as we remembered. This is one of those rare gluten-free finds where someone who is gluten-free can enjoy delicacies such as fresh dinner rolls and pasta. We were in shock when they delivered gluten-free rolls for us, fresh and hot, and they tasted delicious. Both times we have gotten different gluten-free pastas and I'll honestly say my gluten free lasagna was good the first time, but better the second time. We were even able to get gluten-free cheesecake. This time around service was good however there were large parties in front of us and our food came out at different times. We were a party of four and the last dish came out after the other three of us were done eating. But our server was apologetic and explained what was happening. If you are gluten-free and craving some Italian food I definitely recommend Victoria's.

I'm not necessarily a huge fan of eggs benedict, but this place took me by surprise. The Cubano Benedict is maybe the best meal I've ever had (and gluten free!). The Steak Benedict is also fantastic. The pancakes here are just okay last time I tried them- both gluten free and regular. Not something I'd go out for, but the Cubano Benedict is SO good, I must give this place 5 stars.

I can’t stop talking about this place! The service was great and fast (our server provided really good suggestions!), the cocktails were so well-balanced, and the food was delicious! I almost went back the next day for the noodles and brussels. We also had the tofu satay, which was wonderfully crispy, and the pad thai, which they will make if you beg, but I’m with the server that the other food was so good and you can get that anywhere. Best news: so much was gluten-free! Would go back right now if I could.

4.4 total stars for this great American restaurant. They had issues seating us out of the sun which was frustrating but they eventually were able to accommodate. 5 stars for our server Ephraim! He was so accommodating and knowledgeable about the dietary restrictions. They have many gluten sensitive and plant based/ vegan options and accommodated various requests for us. Lots of variety in the menu so anyone can eat here. 4 stars for the quality of the food it wasn’t outstanding but good. We had the: Blueberry mocktail- nice that they have many alcohol free options but this drink was just okay Gluten free truffle Parmesan fries- very good garlic aioli hit the spot Gluten free rainbow roll- okay Plant based mushroom fettuccini with gluten free pasta and chicken- delicious! Bison burger of gluten free bread- decent, amazing Gf bread GF Cookies and cream cake - excellent I do recommend for a group that needs variety and has dietary restrictions. It’s a nice atmosphere on the casual side.
