The original "Victor's" was originally located on the upper East side, but has been moved to the Theater District. It gets very crowded here, with alot of Hispanic customers trying to relive their pasts...through the food, music, and atmosphere. Be sure to try the Cuban style "Lechon" (Roast suckling pig), with congri (mixture of black beans & rice), as well as the other cuban specialties. Good size portions, good desserts & strong coffee. Reservations recommended. less

Food is generally well prepared and quite delightful to the palate. Recommended is the plate called the Ropa Vieja, (Old Clothes, this is a shredded beef seasons with spanish herbs and served in a fried plantain mold. Excellent and moderately priced. The deserts tend to be okay and rather expensive. You are paying for the appearance. Don't recommend. Victor's Cafe gets quite filled with tourist. Recommend calling and reserving a table prior to getting there. less
