    Are you kidding me this place is fantastic. No one could finish that breakfast. Everything seems like a double portion, nice atmosphere ,beautiful town.

    This spot had been sitting on my bucket list forever (like the last year), and I finally hit it at full blast-Saturday morning peak hour. Classic move.
    Victor’s is everything you want a retro diner to be: shiny metal shell, chrome details, and pancakes flying out of the kitchen like it’s 1957 and the coffee never stops.

    The food has no frills, no avocado foam—just crispy hash browns, fluffy eggs, golden toast, ketchup, and a mountain of breakfast potatoes that laugh in the face of portion control.

    As someone who usually starts the day with a brioche and cappuccino at the bar, standing (yes, I live in Italy), this was an entirely different breakfast universe.
    Ketchup, eggs, bottomless coffee... It was a full-on morning experience that felt like a hug, a throwback, and a food challenge all at once.

    Victor’s doesn’t just serve breakfast,-it celebrates it.
    Next time, I’m skipping dinner the night before.

    Really nice place is accessible in a wheelchair just a little tight but easy enough. The food was great and portions huge and a great price as well.

    Breakfast is noted as an important meal and Victor's fulfills that need with speed! This diner is named after Victor Tzakis coupled it's 50's posters of Elvis, Marilyn, and the Rat Pack equates to the name. My crew slid in at the cool hour of 6:45 ready to eat. We were greeted as we waltzed in the door. Asked if we wanted a booth or a table. We elected for a table. Menu presented, specials given, and drink orders taken. We took a breath and discussed deep topics. One member of the crew was overwhelmed by the options. To boot he is a Greek, but he played amateur hour and we retreated back into our parlance. He was tasked with making up his mind. The server was patient and kind. Johnny K eeny meanied. Selected ham, rye, 2 poached eggs, home fries, and French toast. He drank his coffee dark like his soul. The next guy ordered two eggs fried hard. His toast was marbled rye with French toast. Home fries came with it too. I.C. ordered pancakes as from my other reviews you realize...he knows his pancakes. Side hustle of sausage and biscuits were ordered, home fries and eggs fried. I have to suffer with hangriness for having to meet these squares at 5:15 in the morning knew all along what I desired. With no hesitation 2 eggs scrambled, sausage gravy over biscuits with grits. Server did not bat and eye...We talked about break dancing at the Olympics having moved from the topic from before. Before anyone could speak on the idea of....Food began to emerge. First the home fries...They were underwhelming with lots of paprika. However, all our eggs were cooked to perfection. I eyeballed perfect poached eggs. My friend's fried eggs were hard and IC's yellow toast dipping yolk ran for his fried eggs. The grits were instant grits, but they were warm. Just plain grits. The sausage gravy was delicious. I would describe the gravy as creamy with peppery tones. The biscuits grilled on the flattop were super. The biscuits were dense but not crumbly....A plus...they were dense with great mouth appeal is the best way to describe them. Paired with the peppery sausage gravy...spoonfuls of the gravy were ladled by yours truly onto the biscuits. The gravy came in a small bowl on the side. I appreciated this. This allowed the gravy to be mixed in by me with some of the grits too... I was beyond happy. I had a water, two friends had coffee, and one a diet coke. The coffee was rated as a good cuppa. Now the pancakes were deemed B+ by IC. IC said the batter on the pancakes were dense and the batter cooked unevenly thus some dry moments. Still a B+ from this pancake monster means a good cake. IC likes fluffy pancakes. These were not rated as such more...just not airt....these were also good size. This may have contributed to the texture. The group agreed this place was a solid A establishment. The server was realllly great and we were not rushed.

    The bill came to 72.95 and we tipped 20 in cash (Since it is the King, Right Elvis)....

    On that note, we left the building!!!

    Definitely, a return visit may be warranted. Other friends we meet up with later rolled in after us at the 8:30ish time frame. One raved about the skillet. I guess it is a signature dish. I am intrigued and will probably stop in to try a skillet.

    Ist time here, went in at lunchtime. Atmosphere takes you back in time & is great fun to check out all the memorabilia. Menu is huge. Lots of food choices & options how you want food prepared. Took us a long time to figure out what we wanted but server was cheerful about us taking a lot of time to go over menu & make decisions. After ordering we waited too long for food to arrive & then my breakfast of an egg over easy, toast & hash brown potatoes was cold. Surprised as place wasnt that busy. Expected food to taste better than it did. My friend had a chicken sandwich, which she thought was just ok. We had high expectations, but disappointed. Might give it another try....it IS a fun place to eat!
