Amazing food at this traditional French bistro Family run by people who clearly know how to cook food in the French style. You need to book a table even at lunch time to be sure of a meal. The place was packed. The atmosphere was buzzing. The waiters were very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu choices. My husband enjoyed his snail starter and I had the most delicious French onion soup. My fillet steak was cooked to perfection with a lovely wine and meat jus sauce. Sadly we didn’t have room for deserts but they looked gorgeous. Definitely somewhere to return when we are back in Oxford.

Pierre Victoire is a charming neighborhood gem in Oxford. I started with the gruyere and goat cheese soufflé, which was beautifully presented and outstanding! Our server recommended a nice glass of wine to accompany my Sunday roast beef, which, along with the vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, was delicious. The chocolate mousse was plated perfectly and was so tasty! The service was friendly and professional. We were visiting from the US and would definitely return.

If you are reading this review to assess whether you should dine here, STOP READING AND GET RESERVING

We visited on a Saturday lunchtime in mid-October. All of the options on the Prix Fixe sounded amazing and the ones we had were. I especially recommend the goats cheese soufflé if it’s on your menu

The restaurant was busy but despite this, the service friendly and prompt (not overly, just right)

I think the menu is good value for money with no compromise on quality. If you have read this far without booking then I am judging you. Do it already

A nice little French restaurant in busy Oxford. We had a lunch booking for a small celebration. We thought the venue looked attractive from the outside & must also be atmospheric inside. It was possibly true on ground level. However we were led upstairs upon our arrival where the atmosphere was definitely not quite the same. Also the stern looking waitress who led us upstairs gave us quite an austere vibe. We were rather taken aback till we found subsequent waiters were really helpful & welcoming. Food on the other hand, was pretty good, better than most we had tried in the capital, that is, of course, apart from the really high end ones.

Lovely date night. Food was superb. Busy but not too busy. Felt very comfortable. I can HIGHLY recommend bouillabaisse and the Tart Tattin (must get).

Notes for improvement (nitpicking):
Service felt a little fast (not good times, quick is good) it was like the were trying to get us out almost. Ordering and such felt a little rushed.

It was far too warm in there for me.

Really enjoyed the Burgundy wine tasting; Toby was very knowledgeable.
The food was great, I wasn’t sure about snails but was very pleasantly surprised, there was too much on the plate of the venison but it was delicious.
The front of house team kept up and served all the food and wine very promptly.
All in all a very enjoyable evening, we have already booked onto the rose evening

Incredible dinner with myself. Book a reservation even if just for 1 as this place is small and busy. Burrata, duke, and dessert were all wonderful from start to finish. Paired with the half bottle of Côte du Rhône and complimented the duck so well.

This is a beautiful, friendly family run restaurant that serves up delicious, authentic French classics. We ordered the escargot, salmon and scallops for starters, each was beautifully prepared and the salmon in particular had artful presentation. For mains we had bouillabaisse, ribeye, venison, duck and the filet. Each was prepared perfectly, full of flavour with locally sourced vegetables. The sharing chocolate fondue dessert was a lovely finish. Excellent wine list with reasonable prices, no crazy mark ups. And given how busy the place was, the service was attentive and professional, though it’s lucky we weren’t in a hurry. Funnily the best thing of all might have been the simplest! The bread and butter was absolutely delicious, but so was everything else as well. Highly recommended, thank you for creating such an amazing restaurant.

The food here was excellent as always. Starters were prompt, and delicious, I had cheese souffle, my husband had a duo of pate, both were a good size. The main was course was also fantastic, chicken with a pernod sauce, and my husband had venison. We really should have stopped there as we were actually full, but sight of tarte tatin on the desert menu tempted us.
It was delicious, but I couldn’t finish it, such was the size of the portions. We also had a bottle of house Merlot which was very good. Service was prompt and polite, it really is a delightful treat to eat at Pierre Victoire!
