Victoria's Ristorante & Wine Bar

I have never really been a fan of Italian food. I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't had GOOD Italian food before. I ordered the Crab Passion, my wife had the lasagna. Both were some of the best food I have ever eaten. The restaurant is clean and the server's are friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are some of the cleanest I have seen and very nice. The wine selection was great. I cannot wait for next time we are in Rochester to go back. Downtown Rochester has got it going on.

I had dinner here last night with my husband. I heard their seafood is good so we tried it. It was great! The environment of the restaurant is very pleasant. I also enjoyed their choice in music and our server, Justin, was friendly and attentive. They have happy hour on Sundays but just on drinks.

For as long as we can remember, Victoria's has offered wonderful food, good drinks, and attentive service at an affordable price. We've been going to Rochester for years, and return to Victoria's again and again because of its consistent excellence. The ample portions, fresh flavors, and good wine list make it one of our favorites. The people at Victoria's, though, are what really make it special; the welcome we receive makes us feel like old friends every time we walk through the door. It's also a place we feel good about going--after all, it was named Minnesota's nicest place in 2020 by Reader's Digest. When you go, we recommend the Mango Chicken Salad. But honestly, you can't go wrong with anything you order.

I had the pleasure of visiting Victoria’s Ristorante twice during my trip to Rochester, Minnesota. The first trip was for lunch when I had the Mediterranean Salad. At dinner, we “Split” the Noe and Cheesecake. Everything was relaxing and delicious. The staff was on top of their game too by helping us take make choices and making substitutions. I highly recommend dropping by. Please note pic of Noe is only a half portion. It was more than enough for us to split and have leftovers. The cheese cake was also gigantic and yummy.

1/3/23 We were once again back to Mayo for appts and my wonderful wife remembered the Artichoke/Spinach dip she experienced on a previous visit. Since we had some time before the next appt, we walked from Mayo's main buildings through the subway level to Victoria's! This it's all we ordered, but we were seated with wonderful fresh bread and some oil dip with cheese! We love butter.. On the table was the largest bowl of butter packets I've ever seen in an eating establishment. The whole thing was delightful and the host seated us by an outlet so we could charge our cell phones while we ate! Our order was $13.00 plus tax which was worth it! What a wonderful change of pace and break from waiting rooms!

Delicious delicious delicious !! From the bread rolls in oil to the amazing dishes. Wife and sister got delicious pasta dishes and I got the calzone. Too much to eat it all at once, but I killed it later. SO GOOD !!! Definitely go here for yum yum food. Good service as well and restaurant is very clean and nice.

I hate leaving bad reviews, but this has to be done to make others aware. We made a reservation, and we were seated 30 minutes after our actual reserved time. I understand you cannot warranty the time but 1/2 h is a long time. We took Family here because we thought it was a nice and cozy place, but we were seated in some warehouse like dining hall. The chairs wiggling, dirty walls and carpet and so on. The table was way too small for our party as well and no cutlery was provided and i had to ask for it. The ordered food came late and was cold. On one dish there was some other food that was mixed in, and we did not order that. The service was bad as well. After 5 minutes that our food was served, we received a jar of cheese with a comment" Here is some cheese if you want". As I said in the beginning of my review, I hate to leave bad feedback, but I was very disappointed as well as my guests. I will not recommend this place.

This Italian restaurant was pretty spectacular on customer service. was a little busy from my standards of past server/hostess The bread rolls the servers bring out first was great but wished they gave more sauce/oil/not sure what it was but it tasted amazing and for amount of breath + 2 people wasn't enough quite frankly.. Loved the pasta of texture/way it was cooked but Cheese Ravioli could've used more, not sure if there was meat or diced tomatoes but ordered the meat ball side and muah, completed that and happy as a goose The Baby Shrimp Alfredo was wonderful apparently to the orderer of that dish All-in-all pretty good restaurant to go to for a casual bite to eat and conversate!!

Huge space, but quick and attentive service. They have a great wine list and if you are a scallop lover, try their Scallop Lazio. You will not be disappointed by the butter garlic sauce it is sautéed in. They split the dish for us and we each got quite a large portion still see picture. Overall, portions are very large. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal, and there were 8 of us. The parmesan/oil/balsamic mix they serve with their complimentary rolls is also guaranteed to please. Great spot, give them a visit!

Hadn't been here for several years because of COVID-19. Ordered the veal marsala which is hard to find it most restaurants and it was pretty good. I wouldn't say great, but certainly pretty good. Parking: Multi-level parking lot right across the street so it is very convenient to park and go to the restaurant.
