Master Critic
They had a small food menu and small cocktail menu, but everything we got here was absolutely awesome. They are on the expensive side however they delivered on every single thing we got, I would say some of the best crafted cocktails I’ve had in awhile you can tell the thought and quality mixing is really there. The creme brulee was very good too. I will say that the cocktails were primarily liquor with almost no diluting ingredients however you could have fooled me, they were smooth and the flavors were really layered. I highly recommend. I had the chicken parisian and it was beautifully balanced. If I had one critique it would be that they should expand the cocktail menu as well as make a list to view of all the spirits that they have in stock, I likely would have ordered more.

I am long overdue reviewing this fabulous bistro in the heart of Oxford! Wonderful ambiance in all seasons with beautiful finishes that make each visit feel like a celebration of the good things in life. We have worked our way through the menu, mostly during dinner, and have never been disappointed! The smoked fish is a must and their cocktails are delightful and well-balanced. Attentive and friendly staff, Victoria is lovely and made a visit with my mother extra special by sharing her story and inspiration. Highly recommended, especially for date night.

The food was really good, but also very pricey. The chicken was literally 21 dollars, which is quite overpriced for me. I would definitely reccomend coming here for a quick dessert rather than a full meal..other than that, everything was delicious. The server was really kind, and we enjoyed ourselves throughly. The way the food was presented was quite beautiful as well. I would say the creme brulee was the best part of the meal. It was created with atmost perfection, and I reccomend it wholeheartedly.

I absolutely love this place. The food and drinks are only surpassed by the service. My only complaint is that I don’t get there often enough.

The ambience is so great in this establishment. The food is outstanding. We had crab cakes and a French Madame Croquet? Sandwich wich was outstanding. Music was excellent. Soft to medium rock.

Our recent visit was memorable. We hadn’t been in a while and were seated on a pretty active Thursday around 6pm in the side area which must have been added since our last visit. Even tho getting crowded, our party of three was promptly seated. The ambience, decor lives up to the European Cafe vibe. Our server was attentive, friendly, explained the nightly specials and retrieved our ordered libations from a pretty extensive wine and beer list. We started with sides of Tuscan and Caesar salads which were very good, We then moved onto our entrees two ordering crepes and one cedar planked whitefish. All were pronounced exceptional especially the whitefish which was crusted flavorfully. During our experience we were impressed how all members of the staff attended to our table as if they were our primary server, removing used tableware, refilling water, etc. While some would comment that the cuisine had a higher price point I would assert that for the quality, absolute artisan execution and portion size made it actually quite reasonable in comparison to other venues which couldn’t come close. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at what we all agreed was the best restaurant in town!

Ticks all the boxes. This has been my favorite restaurant in the area for years. The service is by far the best. Always new and tasty cocktails. Most importantly, the food is outstanding with reasonable portions.

Never ceases to impress. Excellent all around menu, from cocktails to desserts and everything in between, especially the chef’s specials of the day. Cozy seating, excellent ambiance, friendly staff. Can’t be beat for a special meal. Happy hour, themed dinners, patio seating, all situated in quaint downtown Oxford. Don’t miss this place, you won’t regret it.

My wife and I have eaten here several times since 2021, every year winee. Now most recently in August. The meal was disappointing. Her pasta was overly sour and unbalanced, which isn’t normal for the dish. My fish was bland and lacked seasoning or depth. After multiple visits, it’s clear the flavors just aren’t improving but becoming more unbalanced and confused.

Victoria’s is a small and beautifully designed gem with gorgeous, balanced craft cocktails at a budget price ($10 each!). The service, provided by two attentive waiters, was exceptional. The rainbow trout delivered big on flavor and indulgence (I ate every bite!) — definitely not light, but absolutely worth it. The only minor drawback is the cozy table spacing, which, combined with loud neighbors, slightly detracted from the atmosphere at times. Still, a stellar dining experience overall. The perfect place for a date night, after work dining, or a get together amongst 4 or less friends.
