The Victor - Vancouver, British Columbia

Food is not bad, not what I expected. Service is good. Interior is nice, has a nice patio. Nova Scotia lobster is kind of deceiving as it has added prawn inside, and lobster meat is not much. Wine menu is good. Sushi is expensive but quite good.

Highly recommend the Spoils of Sunday prime rib roast dinner which is essentially a 4 course meal for $68.00. You start with delicious warm Japanese milkbread with whipped butter followed by your choice of lobster bisque, avocado crunch roll, or Caesar salad. The avocado crunch roll was light and refreshing ... and above average for sushi. The lobster bisque had great seafood flavour and the way they serve it is beautiful and entertaining. The Yorkshire pudding was so crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, it was definitely a highlight of the night. The mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts were perfectly cooked as well. The prime rib was okay but the downside was they poured the gravy over everything such that the taste of the gravy overpowered everything and you could not control the amount of gravy over everything. Would be way better if they gave you a little sauce cup of gravy on the plate like other prime rib places so you can pour gravy over whatever you like and control the flavours on the plate. Dessert was beautiful with gold flakes on the cotton candy and the donuts were good. Service was great and the restaurant was very nice with the option to sit outside and see this nice man made pond.

Highly mediocre meal for what you're paying.. steaks are brought cold and even though ordered medium rare, they were all blue-rare at best. Insanely long service times, 3 hours for our set menu? No follow ups for drinks or anything or an hour until food came. Wouldn't recommend. Go to ... Gothams, Elisa or Hy's instead. Especially when you spend $250/pp. Read more

It’s a bit of a journey to the restaurant up on the sixth floor of Parq Vancouver Casino Resort past a rooftop pond and fountain. Their outdoor patio was set up already which looked like a nice place to eat with the view of the pond. It’s a pretty large ... dining room inside. We were seated however in a booth facing what looked like their sushi counter so we felt cut off from the rest of the dining room. We had the rib cap and striploin with their trio sauce (peppercorn, chimicchuri, and bearnaise), as well as a side of the brussel sprouts, fries, and mushrooms. The steaks themselves were cooked rare as requested, well seasoned and tender. The fries are thick cut and had a good texture to them. The brussel sprouts looked promising with the colour on them. I was expecting them to be crispy (they are called “Crispy Brussel Sprouts” on the menu), but they weren’t. They were also overwhelmingly sweet. I had a dessert wine and the brussel sprouts were sweeter than that. It’s like they were candied. The mushrooms were a bit mediocre for our table and we didn’t really care much for them. The service was good, just sometimes would go through a long pause trying to find our server and can’t, maybe because of where we were seated. I think the restaurant has a lot of potential and I’m sure they’ve provided great experiences for other guests. I think there are opportunities here to improve both the front and back of house and provide a high level experience more consistently. Read more

The steakhouse at happy hour offers a good variety of small dishes. We tried almost everything on the menu, and each dish was great. The cocktail options were nice, although they leaned towards the sweet side. The serving staff was friendly, although there were a few instances where they forgot or delayed a ... couple of items, requiring a reminder. Overall, it's a nice place to splurge occasionally, even though it's not cheap for happy hour. Read more
