Fantastic place, it was our 25th anniversary dinner and we loved every minute. Brenna was a great waitress and an even better singer!

Celebrated our wedding anniversary dinner. Nice table, interesting restaurant history, attentive waitress (Iris), enjoyable opera and fantastic meal. Bruschetta, smelts, lamb rigatoni and bottle of Montepulciano wine. Dessert was cannolis and NY cheesecake. Unique dining experience in Philadelphia neighborhood. A true star and find!

Great evening. Elena was super friendly and fielded all our questions. Has an amazing voice. Victor Cafe isn't just dinner; it's dinner with a show. Everyone's talent is top notch. And the food was very good too. Best night out I've had in a while.

I want to start by saying that this review is not about the service and food at the restaurant. The staff is really excellent :) 5 stars on that. But, I had to go dish, it was so badly packed. I did not love the package at all. Before I left the restaurant, it was already leaking. I opened it when I returned home, and the dish was ruined entirely. Food is valuable and expensive; the staff should take more time and make sure it’s packed properly. The lid was not secured properly ruined the entire experience.

I asked for the ravioli and there were just like 5 or 6 of them :( and not really tasty, but my margarita was excellent and the beets salad as well. The reason I went is because I wanted to hear the singers 😍 they are amazing 👏🏽 it feels like in a private opera just for exclusive people 🤭. I loved that and because of that (even the high prices) everything was worthy ❤️. I wouldn't go occasionally but for the experience at least 1 time you definitely should go 👍🏽👍🏽

Absolutely great experience at The Victor Cafe, from the food to the ambiance to the service. I felt like we were in the hands of an experienced, thoughtful host. It's obvious they have been at this for a long time and have curated your dinner experience to optimize enjoyment. Such knowledgeable and friendly (and talented) staff.

I was so happy that not only did they have vegan options but more than one--my favorite was the Vegan Orecchiette. So flavorful, and loved the Beyond sausage being included. I also noticed they had a delicious looking dessert option, which is incredible since many restaurants do not also include a vegan sweet. The opera singing added warmth to our experience, and I want to live in the upstairs lounge (so cozy). Thank you Victor Cafe!

unique experience...!!! a dive into the last century, where, while you enjoy a foreign dish, your hearing makes you imagine you are having dinner with Pavarotti, Puccini, Moffo, Caruso... a mixture of senses, raised to the nth degree....

We celebrated our anniversary at Victor's last week - it was our first time there, and we were not disappointed! The restaurant is historic (owned by the same family for over 100 years) and has an old-fashioned Italian vibe with lots of character. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. The waitstaff were incredibly friendly and the service was fast - we felt very taken care of. We appreciated the number of vegetarian and vegan options that were available on the menu - the food was delicious and authentic! Everyone on the waitstaff is a classically trained opera singer and we truly enjoyed the amazing performances throughout the evening. We will definitely be back!
