While the new Victor Restaurant is being built, the current location is the library within the Le Germain Hotel. Which actually made for a quaint locale.
I wanted a light dinner, so opted for the Caesar salad, with an added avocado. Absolutely stunning in presentation and taste. Although, to be honest, I would have preferred ever-so-slightly more dressing. Nevertheless, it was very satisfying. The bacon crumble was cooked perfectly, as well.
I then chose the vanilla cheesecake with fruit compote. My gosh, what a huge slice! Very light in texture, it was a perfect compliment.
My only real complaint is that they did not offer a Cabernet Sauvignon by the glass. The Merlot I chose was okay, but I prefer a nice Cab with dinner.
Casual French done properly. The food was cooked perfectly and the sauces (also perfect) complemented everything well. The service team took very good care of us.
We visited Victor for Valentine's Day dinner. The food was very tasty but not exceptional. The duck could use more flavour and the brussels sprouts were a tad too salty. The ambience and decor were great. You have to trek upstairs to use the bathroom. The service was very attentive (a bit too attentive) at the beginning and then when the dinner rush came, the server was hard to track down.
A French style restaurant with great food and stylish interior
10/10 all around, amazing food, amazing atmosphere. Always go there for my birthday. I'm sad they are renovating their dining space. Hopefully it will look even better come Spring.
Booked a reservation quite a while ago for a best friend’s 30th birthday and the staff at Victor did an amazing job at serving my friends and I. We were a party of about 15 people, and everything was seamless! The complimentary champagne, bread, butter and olives were an excellent touch and made the 30th celebration feel even more special!
Some feedback from my party - a couple friends ordered the spaghetti that they said was a bit on the salty side. Also, the food and drink menu was quite small to order from, but other than that everything else was great! Thanks again to the team at Victor working with me in executing a great 30th birthday dinner.
Friendly, fairly attentive service. I had an Empress Elixer cocktail which was delicious followed by the steak. Cooked perfectly how I like it but the potato side was cold. The decore is quite nice but it was quite quiet. We were one of two tables. Overall, not too bad but definitely not amazing.

The service was good and the drinks didn't disappoint. The food left something to be desired considering its price point. I'm not upset I checked it out, but I wouldn't return.

Our first time visiting Victor. The fresh olive bread was simply amazing. We ordered food to share and had a bit of everything. It was all very delicious from the gnocchi, the trout, lamb shoulder, truffle fries, crispy Brussels sprouts, and the cheese tray. The plating was amazingly beautiful. It was pretty to look at and even more tasty to eat. The ambiance was elegant and classy. Definitely a place you want to take someone to impress them! The menu isn't too diverse but everything that we did try was great. And not to mention the amazing service that we received all evening. Would highly recommend!
4.0/5
Great service and a calm and relaxing ambiance. The staff are always pleasant at Le Germain and we certainly appreciate this.
The food is good. Nothing outstanding but decent. I should note that their menu is pricey. For the quantity of food you get, each entrée is somewhat overpriced relative to what you can get in the area. Drinks are expensive as well.
I would return for the experience of dining in a quiet space away from the hustle and bustle of the city. 5 stars to the pleasant servers!

This restaurant is located inside Le Germain Hotel. The decor and vibes is very nice and classy. We were here on a Saturday night, but the place was empty, which is surprising to me, as everything was lovely here.
We had the Icelandic cod, duck magret, and brussel sprouts. The cod was fresh and the rice that accompanied it was flavorful. The duck was delicious, the polenta was also great.

Located off the lobby of a hotel, not crowded, good vibe, low noise level so you can have conversation, good food, and accommodating staff. The duck was really delicious, juicy, and buttery, compared to the rainbow trout which felt a bit dry and uninspiring. That said, willing to give it another try sometime. Very close to the theatre where we were catching a musical.
Fantastic food! Our group had their lamb, burger and butternut squash gnocchi, and all of them were amazing!
Expensive, but worth the price!
