Fried oysters were salty, but crispy. She crab soup was delicious and full of crab. Friend's raw oysters were good. His diver sea scallops were a tad overcooked, but flavorful. My rockfish was very tasty in an interesting broth-like sauce. Service was extremely friendly and attentive, but we waited quite a long time to get our appetizers, then for the entree, then for our after dinner drinks. A bit slow in between courses for sure.

Highly recommend this spot! Did 3 stars for value only because it's a *little* bit expensive, but want to emphasise that they *are* offering high-quality food, ambience, and service. Probably recommend the prix fixe versus a la carte if you're looking for more value. Couldn't have been happier with our server (Michelle) and her support staff, as well as the overall feel of the dining room. Cool mix of patrons, all stylish and enthusiastic diners! It feels like a hidden spot you want to keep to yourself, but don't because you want them to succeed and keep going. :)

This was by far the best fine dining dinner I have ever had in my life. Chef Brandon is amazing. I ate things I would normally never eat and I was blown away. I still can't get over how incredible the food was. Staff was very good, bartender knew what he was doing. I am amazed

My gf and myself went to Parlour Victoria after I went with some friends before hand. On this visit Lauren greeted us so warmly. We had the amazing fried lobster and boiled oysters, they were delicious. Then we had a long wait and turned out to be a mix up in the kitchen with our main course. We had no issues waiting because we were enjoying the amazing play list they had playing. But our main course came and it was the wrong order. When I tell you the staff was just so amazing! I mean TOP TEIR customer service! I wasn’t feeling well so I wasn’t drinking but I got an amazingly refreshing drink and they topped off my gf’s drink. Then we got their crab soup (sorry I don’t remember the name of it), when I tell you it was AMAZING!!! Chunks of crab! And so flavorful but also light! OMG we loved that soup! Then our steaks came! Mouth watering! Just melted in our mouths. It was worth the wait. So good! And we had the apple crisp dessert! Delicious! 10000/10! We WILL be coming back! Lauren and Andy you all are amazing people. Thank you for being such great sports with us. We loved it here and y’all are a big reason why. Thank you again.

Went for restaurant week. The food was terrible. Even the entrees had an unnaturally sweet taste to them - as if they had been doused with sugar. I had the branzino, which was skin-on but lacked the crispiness you’d expect - owning to the weird runny rice underneath it that was also just poorly cooked. My friend had a dish with lentils, which was marginally better. The desserts tasted as if it came out of a package - my friend had the mousse and I had some cake that was just as bad. Afterward we had to go to the Peach Cobbler spot around the corner for redemption. That saved the night. I also had a do-over meal at a restaurant I love the next day. I was skeptical about how I was able to make a reservation last-minute, but it looked like there had been good reviews, so I went against my better judgment. I wish we’d checked out some nearby places that I’ve been before but know are good. This place reminds me of the adage not to trust hotel restaurants.

I had a wonderful experience at Parlour Victoria. The ambience, service and food were all amazing but the food is what brings me back every time! I absolutely love the Crawfish Mac & Cheese, Grouper with Gullah Crab Rice and the Pot de Creme for a sweet finish. The team at Parlour is doing a spectacular job.

We did lunch for Restaurant Week. The food was good and they had lots of interesting items on their regular menu that we would like to come back and try. Restaurant is in an old townhouse, and it had a lot of interesting nooks and crannies where seats were installed.

My friend and I went to lunch here on a Wednesday during Restaurant Week. I absolutely loved this fairly new restaurant! The ambiance and decor was vey inviting. Service was very good and the food was superb. I had the gumbo, which was the best I’ve ever had. My friend had the hush puppies which were delicious, very different from those served at chain restaurants. We both had the monkfish which was well prepared and tasty. I will definitely come back again!

I went here for my birthday dinner, and was not served anything other than drinks and appetizers. I literally spent days looking for places to eat for my birthday dinner and decided on this. When we got there, the service was terrible, and we were met with the manager, letting us know that we could no longer eat dinner on that floor due to some unforeseen circumstance, and that we would have to leave. My drink and appetizer were comped for the inconvenience, but the rest of my party had to pay for their appetizer and drink AFTER being told that their appetizer would be comped as well. They were not able to fully enjoy their experience nor was I. Honestly, this was the last straw and kind of ruined my birthday. Overall, I wish I could tell you how the food was because I was definitely looking forward to eating there, but will never get the chance due to that extremely poor service, and the lack of consideration. I also included on the reservation that it was my birthday and did not receive not one happy birthday from anyone , not even management.

We had a wonderful evening at Parlour Victoria. We sat at a very private booth with a nice view of the city. Unfortunately we didn’t get to hear live music. The fried lobster appetizer was extraordinary. Our entrees were excellent too (Blackened Grouper and Seared Rockfish). The apple cake dessert was nice and warm. Drinks were good but the martini was really small and the Snake Hips cocktail was mostly ice. But the bourbon selection is wide and the pours generous. There are few wine bottles less than $100.

Lovely restaurant, food was delicious, you have to try the deviled eggs, they are a pop of flavors you need in your life. Music was too loud for my taste. Definitely not a place for a first date or a late meeting.
