Disappointed
The place is nice, and the music good, but the staff is not very kind. It is way to pricey, considering that with your meat you simply get a scoop of boiled yucca and some rice and refried beans. My boyfriend and I only had one drink and an entree each and paid 100 $. It is not worth it.

What a disappointment!
My gf and I hadn't been to this restaurant for almost 9 months. We always regarded it as the only and best gourmet Cuban restaurant in NY. Last night 5 of us (all Cuban) went there for a Valentines dinner. I must say, one of the biggest disappointments I've had in a while. The quality AND quantity of the food went from a 5 to a 1. The presentation, which was one of the things I used to love at this place declined from 5 to 0. They didn't even try. It used to be presented in an artistic style with sculptural forms etc. It used to be large artistic plates. Now they are using cafeteria-style cheap beige plates. Two of us ordered the Bistec Empanizado. The steaks are smaller, and whomever cooked them, didn't know who to make Cuban-style breaded stake! I order the Oxtail and struggled for an hour to try to dislodge the meat from the bones. My other friend ordered the Churrasco (skirt steak) and I've had baby churrasco's bigger than this one which was meant to be normal size. Again, no presentation either there. The side dish of Moros rice wasn't loose enough and the portion size was for a midget. (Overall, spent about $260 and could've gotten a more authentic, delicious meal at some "not-so-fancy" Cuban restaurant. Glad it was a last for ALL of us.

Tropical splendor in Manhattan
This is a must restaurant for any NYC food lover. Everything is great! It`s a boxing fans delight with artifacts of Roberto Duran everywhere in the restaurant.

Delicious
I love this resturant! From the appetizers that melt in your mouth, to the entrees that leave you looking for more room in your belly! And the desserts are to die for. They had a mouth-watering dish of ice cream served in a basket-shaped, sweet seseame confection drizzled with rum-soaked pineapples........To die for!

Excellent!
I've been there a few times. One of the best places to eat in New York. Great service, great food and excellent atmosphere.

Authentic it is!
This is the best Cuban restaurant we have ever been to. It couldn't have been more authentic! We are Cuban and never have any high expectations about Cuban restaurants and their renditions of authentic Cuban food. We left Victor's completely amazed about the food, service, mojitos and decor. The ambiance kept us feeling like we were in the Caribbean along with the live music they offered (on the weekends?). We would suggest Victor's to those who truly want what is authentic Cuban cooking and feel. Try their guayabitas for dessert!
