    My boyfriend and I had went on a Saturday night for date night. It’s very hot and extremely loud. I recommend layers so you can not get too hot. At certain points we couldn’t hear each other talking. We were screaming and sitting right beside each other. The food was amazing. Our server barely spoke to us and didn’t ever tell us his name. The water/buster was nice and the only employee other than the manager who was friendly. The waiter was clearly very busy and would walk away before finishing our conversations or asking if we need anything else. We were ready to order before he ever came over but would only get our drinks to start because he walked away before we had a chance to say we were ready to order. The food was great. They were out of the Cram Brûlée so I’m not sure if dessert is good or not. My gin drink was a heavy poor, im sure most people enjoy but I couldn’t drink it. It was way too strong and not good. I enjoyed the salmon with peas and potatoes and my boyfriend had the meat ravioli. Both amazing. The appetizer was some sort of beef deep fried ball on top of marinara and was fantastic.

    We had a great experience at Victory Tap! We were visiting from Michigan and it was our son’s birthday. Danny went above and beyond and made our experience phenomenal. He made it extra special for our three young children as well. Not only was the service exceptional, but the food was top notch. All of the dishes we ordered were delicious and everyone we encountered was so very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend Victory Tap!

    Our server, Danny, was amazing. Our entire experience was better because of him. Eggplant salad was delicious. Brick chicken with peppers was tender and perfect amount of spice.
