    Awesome oysters, lightly steamed, and ice cold Stella, what more could you ask for? Oh, and great service and great company too!

    This was my first visit and when I arrived on a Friday at 7pm, the parking lot was packed and overflowing (usually the sign of a good restaurant). Luckily, my friends made reservations, which I highly recommend. We sat outside on the patio and listened to Dave and France, a two group combo-singer and horn player. Very good, but a little loud if you sit close to the stage. The Oysters Rockefeller were fantastic! Even my friends who thought they did not like oysters had two each! The mixture of spinach and cheese over the oyster itself was perfect. I had the blackened mahi-mahi which was also very good. The service was friendly and fast. The Dog Track is right across the street so you can go over an make a few bets after a good meal. I see the locals love this place as it was still packed when we left at 8:30pm. Give this place a try!

    Come for the fresh shucked oysters.. Stay for everything else. They steam the oysters to your liking or eat um raw. They're always, fresh & delicious! The wings are the best we've had too! In fact, every single thing we've tried on the menu has been superior. My 16 yr old even drove the 45 minutes from our house with a friend for their chicken tenders.. Chicken tenders! Everything is that good & everything is homemade. My husband always gets a mahi sandwich every where he goes. He would always drive all the way to Daytona to get his favorite one, until he tried the one here. & whatever you do, be sure to try the hush puppies!!!! $1.99 for 10 & they are the best! When I go I mostly eat oysters & hush puppies, oh & steak fries.. Sooooo good!

    I love oysters so this place was a must. As oysters go, they tasted great but were a little pricey. Also had their wings which were pretty good but also pricey. The atmosphere is that of a typical oyster/sports bar. However the service is pretty bad. We came in and the sign said "please wait to be seated" and no one came to seat us for 10 minutes. So I would give this place a solid 3.5!

    Love this place! We go here often. We sit at the bar, eat oysters and drink cold beer. The service is really amazing, the place is cozy and down to earth, and the seafood is really delicious. They have great deals on oyster buckets and good draft beer specials.

    Never had a bad experience. And I've been here many times. Oysters are fabulous. Bucket of shrimp. Crab cakes. Everything was amazing. No wonder they have been there all these years

    We ordered lightly seamed oyster and we ate one dozen for each person. They are awesome. We also tried clam chowder and fried calamari, but we did not find anything special and they are tasted like fast food. We would recommend their oyster for other people.

    Arrived close to 8pm and only the oysters were good from then on -service? I don't believe it exists here, table not acknowledged for about 4 minutes, new people arrived, then not acknowledged for another 5min.... Drinks? Take FOREVER, and I do mean water... Want to place an order? Well just wait there until you pretty much have to hold your server hostage... -Your food? Well a salad took, and I am NOT exaggerating 30 minutes... Note there was no meat on this salad only uncooked items... So you make that what you will -Oysters? Pretty good, tasted fresh and their cocktail sauce was good. These did come out in about 10 min -likely hood of a return trip? None, I can find pretty good oysters elsewhere So if you expect to be served, good luck.

    I love the seafood here. The service varies from excellent to mediocre so it's always a crap shoot but we keep coming back! It's got a vast menu so there is something for non seafood eaters too, but I mostly stick to oysters, mahi sandwich, fish and chips and the hush puppies. I love the hush puppies. Oh and the wings are great too!

    I had a good experience at this iconic, old Florida oyster house. We were seated quickly in a booth, but the raw bar looked inviting. We were disappointed in the lack of gluten free items and the approach our server used when we asked if any modifications or accommodations could be made. The answer was simply "no". We ordered the snow crab legs and the fried shrimp, both with fries. The crab was on the small side, but made well. The shrimp was very fresh and good. The restaurant was packed and obviously had a lot of regulars. Overall, it was a good experience and I would return to try the raw bar.

    Great food! Best oysters around. Their sweet tea is absolutely disgusting. It taste like it comes from a fountain. The noise level in this restaurant is horrible. They have a band playing out on the back patio, that vibrate the walls you can't escape that Bandt, they have TVs blaring it's not anenjoyable experience. It's definitely a bar experience.Which is a shame because the food is outstanding my goodness. The prices are steep ,but I must say the food is worth every penny . It's definitely more of a bar app was fair than a family dining experience. Which I probably won't go back because of that. So loud I have a splitting headache and was ready to puke from all the noise

    I love this place. It's a good old fashion seafood spot. The food is good. The atmosphere is good. They treat you like family and when I say family I mean family. You get all types of dynamic of people just like family. So when I'm in there I feel like family.

    Victorio's... my new neighborhood joint. Although my first impression of Victorio's being near the dog track is that it might have been a dumpy little bar that locals go to after they pissed away their life savings betting on dogs. That is not the Case. I was wrong and apologize to Victorio's for casting judgment. Its actually quite large inside. Who know it was that big packed with wall to wall bar, a giant fish tank and a Tiki bar out back. You wouldnt think all that was going on up in there passing it on dog track road, but dude, they got some space up in there. I had a dozen raw oysters and some wings. All great. I dont think you can mess up oysters unless you are not serving them fresh. They certainly tasted fresh and they certainly were tasty. Everyone there is cool. Locals are cool. Its just a laid back kind of place I think. The fish in the fish tank do look at you funny. Maybe its because they know Im eating their cousin Sal.

    Dearest Anthony, You pour a mean drink!! That is a very good thing!!! You kept me well lubricated throughout my meal. Your attentiveness to my alcohol intake needs was exceptional. By the way, the food was very good as well. We had a bucket of oysters, 20 teriyaki wings and an awesome pizza. I was expecting to have a mediocre meal but I was pleasantly surprised. The wings were cooked perfectly, seasoned well, and were very meaty. The oysters were quite tasty. The pizza was a pleasant surprise. I never imagined that pizza from what appeared to be a dive would be so good. Amazing crust and toppings. Thank you for a great time.

    The wings were very flavorful but also extremely greasy. The raw oysters were huge. I usually eat them plain but these needed salt and cocktail sauce. The fried oysters were very small and not over breaded

    Sit at the oyster bar and have Eva take care of you! My group just finished up an activity nearby and decided to stop by for a late dinner. Upon checking in; I noticed we only had 22 minutes until closing time, uh oh! We decided to go ahead and approach the bar since we saw several other tables just starting their meal. Our waitress was busy with other patrons, but still gave us a warm welcome as we were sitting down. We didn't want to overstay our welcome so we quickly made our choices and submitted our order. First off, 2 buckets of raw oysters! Buy 1 bucket and get $5 off the next bucket. These oysters were plump and juicy! Your oysters come with the usual accoutrements: cocktail sauce, horseradish, crackers, and lemon wedges. Side note; take it easy with the horseradish. I automatically assumed I could handle the heat, but the horseradish here is a lot stronger than other places! As we were eating we got to know Eva, our waitress and oyster shucker. She shucked and served oysters according to who ate the fastest. I swear I just got done eating my second oyster and my lady friend to my left was on her 5th! So, if you are ever in a situation of sharing an oyster bucket, then just remember to slurp a little faster. We also ordered some shrimp, white wine clam pasta, and a side of fries. The bar gets brownie points for providing us with sriracha to slather on our fries. The shrimp were naturally sweet, the pasta had great flavor, and the seasoned fries were crispy. Everything tasted so delicious! As we were eating, Eva took great care of us. She even reassured us that we should take our time eating even though it was past closing time. What a doll! Great food and excellent service, my kind of place!

    Delicious wings and catfish enough said. Go now with a hearty appetite. Yum went with friends on previous visit and ordered crab legs but didn't really enjoy the experience. Now they had a large group of us and put out great food. Also everyone loved their food.

    I have tried oysters two or three times before in my life at other locations, and each time found them to be disgusting resembling slimy cooked boogers. I've had them steamed, Rockefeller and fried, all ending in the same slimy salty boogery dissatisfaction. Recently I have been reading a lot of reviews on Victorio's, which I've been to a hundred times, but never tried their oysters. Anyone who has reviewed their oyster bar has raved about how amazing and delicious it is. I am a huge fan of common sea food (crab, lobster, fish, shrimp, nothing too creepy crawly), and got a wild hare in me and wanted to give Vicotrio's oyster bar a try. My husband and I sat at the oyster bar last night for the very first time. The buckets were running around $26 each. I am in an adventurous spirit, but don't want to waste $26 if I decide after the first bite they officially are not for me. I went with the steamed dozen from their appetizer menu, about $10. This is probably common, but I'm new to the game; they give you hot sauce, horseradish, fresh lemon wedges, cocktail sauce and melted butter for condiments. Also baskets of saltine crackers are available. The waiter shucked them for me right at the bar and laid them out on the bar top that they cover with paper when you sit down. I am officially hooked! They were delicious, steamed to perfection, not slimy, no resemblance to boogers at all! After experimenting with the various condiments, I conclude that I like them with a squeeze of lemon juice and a cocktail sauce, and that is it. Can't wait to go back and get a whole bucket. My husband, not as adventurous at the time as I was feeling, went with the pick two: blackened shrimp and crab bites. He said the crab bites were out of this world good, and the shrimp was delicious and flavorful as well. We shared an appetizer of fried mozzarella which was also delicious. Not a trace of grease. The marinara sauce for dipping was also wonderful with pieces of tomato and onion with just the right amount of herbs and garlic. We had a wonderful date night, and I am so glad I had the nerve to try something new! Final conclusion, everywhere else I have tried oysters were just doing it wrong. Victorio's is so right!

    Come hungry. This place is built for hunkering down and eating food. Huge seafood menu and an oyster shucking bar. The place qualifies as a dive in the best possible way. Great food but they can get busy. Portions are big enough to share and the oysters were huge. Service was surprisingly slow... I'm pretty sure the server took about 5 smoke breaks or something as we say with empty glasses for pretty long stretches. That being said the food was great and definitely worth the visit. This is one of those tucked away places that you'd pass by a million times. Do yourself a favor and come in... Ask for a seat at the oyster bar and don't forget to try some of their house hot sauces!

  • Daphne M.

    So this place is kinda sketchy looking. I was worried when I walked in but based on the reviews I had to go in. Yes it's old and funky but those oysters are huge and fresh tasting! I also orders a small antipasto and it was so big I am taking half with me for the plane ride tomorrow! Garlic knots are probably frozen bread but the sauce on them is fresh garlic so it's amazing!!!! I'd definitely come back when I'm in town! I'm stuffed!!!!!!

    Went on a Friday night with coworkers for a birthday dinner of one of them. SUPER busy so expect a wait. Our waitress had to handle nearly all of the dining room herself so our food and drinks were also a wait. She forgot some cocktails, basics like raw oysters took 30 minutes to come out, etc. Drinks: I ordered a rum runner. They automatically made it blended without asking me, nasty. It was very weak and basically tasted like a sugary smoothie. My friend on the other hand ordered a margarita and it was almost all booze, so we ended up combining them. Crab bites...all filler, hush puppies were waaaay too sweet. They tasted like sugary cornbread. Scallop scampi was good, oysters were acceptable. Nothing to rave about at all, but it wasn't bad either.

    My date and I went on a Friday night. We had oysters, crab legs and shrimp. Everything was pretty good. Interior decor was very outdated. Flannel back table clothes and carpet in dining room. However, The servers and bartenders were all very friendly and helpful. On Friday nights they have live musician play on a stage at outside bar and patio, who is really good. We really Enjoyed the atmosphere and will definitely return again!

    I've been dying to try this place and it didn't disappoint. We belly up to the oyster bar and have a couple of dozen on the half shell and then split a dozen Oysters Rockefeller. The shuckers were great! (wish I could remember their names) Oysters were great, even though they weren't in season. The Rockefeller was good, not the best I've had, but good. (If you ever get to Commander's Palace in New Orleans, order the Rockefeller) Their location is right across from the dog track in Longwood. I definitely will be stopping in here again as I want to try their buckets.

    It pains me to write this. With all my check-ins here and raving about the place to family and friends I really feel let down by the establishment. Hell, I held the Yelp "Dukedom" here for about 5 months! But no more. Last Friday we met an old friend and her new friend for oysters and drinks. Our favorite guy on the oyster side, Alex, wasn't in so we just grabbed any 4 open seats. A couple of things were off pretty quickly. Getting a second glass for our pitcher of Stella took 5 minutes minimum and the bartender/shucker was guy we'd never seen before. We ordered two buckets of raw and waited. And waited. We know they're busy but Friday night has always been the night we go. We've got a pretty good idea of how long it should take on a busy Friday....this is long. So finally he drops off the buckets but it takes another five minutes for him to start shucking. Oysters are a natural product and the buyer doesn't have a great deal of control over the size and source of the shellfish. These were from Texas which we've liked before. These weren't cold however. Cool yes but not cold and they weren't really too tasty. This batch was tiny to boot. Seriously tiny oysters! Alex would of told us right off the bat that they were small this week and we would of ordered accordingly. So this is a crappy batch. It happens. What pissed me off was getting the check and seeing $17.95 for a pitcher of Stella! WHAT??!! I question the bartender and he says yes that's the price. I don't want to make a scene in front of our new friend so we leave. A few days later I call back during the day to question this again. The daytime bartender claims that indeed she checks in the kegs and that Stella costs between $270-$275 a keg. I was a beverage director up until midway through 2011 and I still have my price sheets. Prices go up but this smells fishy. I get off the phone and ring a buddy of mine who's a bar manager and he talks to one of the folks at Wayne-Densch and it turns out Stella is $150-$160 a keg depending on volume. So either they're getting waaaayyy over charged or the bartenders are misinformed/lying. I email the office with this information but I get silence in return. Not good. So Victorio's sold me room temperature, small and mediocre oysters and charged me a criminal price on what is a run of the mill beer after I've spent a good deal of money and recommended the place to dozens of folks. When I complain I get silence and obfuscation. And I forgot to say the bartender was a serial "up-seller". Not a good product served, not a decent price charged and not a good response. Choose for yourself where you want to spend your hard earned money.

    Some stud oysters as usual. John was serving em up just right. The wife had fried jumbo shrimp. All the food was good. The clam chowder was filled with plenty of clams and very tasty. If you like oysters this is the place.

  • Rachael M.

    I took my family here today (2/15/15). The food was so bland, dry and tasteless! I got the calamari, first of all, appetizer means something big enough to share, there was enough for 1 person and it was sooo chewy!! Not crispy like most places. I ordered Eggplant Parm. It was so bland, and the "garlic knots" more like NOT a garlic KNOT, like a buttered piece of toast. Olive garden is so much better! I highly recommend to go anywhere but there!

    My husband and I stopped in the first time last night. From a menu website he was under the impression that the oysters listed at $8.99 would be for a dozen however they were actually $7.99 for a 1/2 dozen. He ordered a dozen raw and a dozen fried none the less and enjoyed them immensely! I found it interesting that some were larger than others and then our fantastic waitress/bartender Eva (we sat at the raw bar) explained that some were from TX or LA and the smaller ones were from FL. I won't mention my meal as I just had a chicken sandwich (sorry not much of a seafood eater). To sum it up, the food was fantastic and the service was awesome (you ROCK Eva!!). This place is worth checking out and we will definitely be back again!

    Walked in and seated ourselves at the Oyster Bar which was somewhat packed. We got tended to pretty quickly & easy. $26 got us a bucket which got us around 35 oysters, which were nice and fresh. I do wish their beer selection was a little better but they had Stella so I won't complain. Very "no-frills" style place. No music, tv selection/presentation was a bit MEH but it's fine. What matters is the oysters were very good. I also ordered the stuffed shells which came with rolls and they were pretty good as well. We missed their special which was $26 for a bucket and 18 for each bucket after but I'm sure they'll be back. Waiters were nice and did a great job so 4 stars.

    Went here the other night, the place is large and definitely a locals joint. It is like most oyster bars - a little divey but they have a decent beer selection, wine selection is non existent and a full liquor bar. Now on to the most important part - the food. we ordered buffalo shrimp - good, oysters Rockefeller also good, a dozen steamed oysters (how i prefer them vs raw) they were fresh and very good, crab bites - also good and wings! they have a quite large menu in addition to oysters so this would be a good place to take anyone if you like oysters.

  • Shannon T.

    My first reason for eating at Victorio's are the oysters. I started eating oysters sitting on a phone-book on a bar stool when I was little. And it's still the only way I will eat oysters.... at a raw bar, shucked and raw. Unfortunately Orlando does not have any clean, family friendly, good service oyster restaurants to choose from.... except Victorio's. I will drive from Winter Park when I need my fix. Lunch or Dinner time. There are a good variety of seafood menu items to choose from (even Italian dishes and subs) and the restaurant is very comfortable to hang with family, even if oysters are not your liking. Plenty of seating,booth or table, and a full liquor bar if interested. This place get busy during the weekend, at least when I've stopped in... but you will still get good service.

    This place will always be a 5 star place for me. I love this place so much even though I spend wayyyy too much whenever I go. I always sit at the bar and they usually have a place for me and a friend. Sometimes it's a little busy but they can usually fit us in. We order the same thing every time we go. A few buckets of oysters 2 buckets of beer and a bucket of shrimp Everything is ALWAYS perfectly cooked. They shuck the oysters very fast and the people who work there are always very nice and have great personalities. I've had a few other things off the menu and everything has been good. I just go here for the oysters and they're amazing!

  • Jon S.

    I have been here a few times, and it never disappoints. It's great sitting at the bar and having the oysters shucked for you. I have had them raw and lightly steamed, both enjoyable. They provide different condiments you can use (butter, horseradish, lemon, a few hot sauces) to find your "perfect combo" I love mine with horseradish and hotsauce on a cracker. The oysters were fresh, the staff was super friendly and was reasonably priced. $26 for a bucket of oysters (which is about 2.5 pounds) is more than enough for 2 people.

    Just went there last night and split 2 buckets between my husband, my daughter and myself. We go here every time we want some great oysters and lots of them! They have a great location with an oyster bar (an actual oyster bar where you can get buckets, unlike places that just have "oyster bar" in the restaurant name and find out they just sell them by the dozen). You can get them steamed or raw. We always get them medium steamed, and they taste awesome! The shuckers are super friendly and you never go home feeling hungry! I definitely recommend this place for the hardcore oyster fans out there!

    Animal Abuse with my meal.. I tried to eat my meal but found it difficult with the mistreatment of the fish in the display tank next to my table. Anyone who has a heart can see how badly they are treated and are way too large and too crowded for the tank. This place has an overfilled fish tank with fish so large they can't turn around. One fish was dying and turning over while the other tried to hold him up. It was awful to watch. Somebody needs to regulate this disgusting treatment of animals. PETA or animal services. No living thing should be shoved in a too small aquarium. Shame on you fix the problem .. Horrible

    Great RAW oysters! Ambiance: Super relaxed and casual. No fuss atmosphere. Very clean and run of the mill. Food: Like I said. Awesome RAW oysters on the shell. Also, their selection of hot dinners are standard "american restaurant" faire. The best part of the restaurant is the price. Really INEXPENSIVE as far as Orlando area restaurants are concerned. Overall: A great place for a casual dinner. I would recommend this place for its raw menu and sheer lack of care for how customers are dressed. Sometimes it's nice to just be casual.

    One of the best restaurant experiences I have ever had . I was in Florida for business stopped by here based on yelp reviews. Sat at the oyster bar, the staff was awesome , very friendly and added to the overall experience The oysters were mind blowing as well as the seafood platter. I hope these guys never downgrade and stay this great . I will always come back when I am in town

    My husband and I came in for a late lunch, spur of the moment decided to check it out. First off its very large and they have plenty of seating, bar or oyster bar,or otherwise. I chose snow crab legs which were good and my husband got the crabcake sandwich. I have to say being from Maryland I'm very picky when it comes to crab cakes, but theirs was very good and hit close to home. We will definitely return!

    Pretty darn good oyster bar. Great, personable shuckers. Big oysters (even out of season). Dive-ish place with wood paneling, bright neon lights and a 750 gallon fish tank that splits one room in half. We decided to have an appetizer so maybe we wouldn't put away quite so many oysters. We ordered the crab cake but wished we hadn't. It wasn't that it wasn't good, it was. It was just pricey and smaller than we expected and really not very filling. We still ended up ordering two buckets! Buckets were running $23 (all day, every day as the sign proclaimed) and can be steamed to your liking or raw. The oysters were great, definitely as good as our other oyster go-to place, Lee and Rick's. They have REAL lemons (unlike Lee and Rick's) but the crackers are individually wrapped. Kind of annoying unwrapping dozens of little cracker packages! Not sure why they don't just have sleeves of crackers available. They sell oyster shooters- an oyster in a shot glass with your choice of beer, Vodka or Tequila. It sounded terrible so I tried to convince my husband to try one! Our shuckers actually talked us in to trying a "Rooster" instead. A Rooster is an oyster on a cracker with A LOT of horseradish, lemon, jalapeno, Tabasco and cocktail sauce. My first and last one of those!! Ooowww- Eeeee! I thought it was really cool that our shucker did one with us! She also grabbed us extra complimentary beer to squelch the fire afterward! Another sign of great customer service- after our shucker had shucked about 10 oysters she noted that they seemed a little over-steamed. Without hesitation she took that bucket away and brought us a brand new, FULL, bucket as a replacement. We hadn't even complained or commented! We are very glad to have found this place. Plus, it's closer to home! We will definitely be back, just no Roosters for me!

    After checking the reviews I decided this would be a great spot for dinner. Amazing! I tried the oysters Rockefeller, raw oysters, and the ahi tuna. All three were equally fantastic. Decent tap beer selection, not a fancy place - just a no frills QUALITY food experience. You are not getting fresher oysters unless you are diving for your own.

    PHENOMENAL! Everything we eat here is amazing. We try to fit this into our usual haunts and definitely stop by at least twice a month. We usually show up on Monday or Tuesday nights because they offer amazing bucket deals on oysters. We love them raw and they have a great variety of hot sauces to complement them. The staff is super friendly, and while you can definitely see they're working hard and the work just keeps on coming, they all have smiles on their faces and are willing to help a customer. We've had the crab cakes which are hands down the best I've ever had, as was the eggplant parmesan and pretty much every other appetizer we've had there. We have yet to order any of the main dishes, but I'm sure they aren't going to disappoint. Will definitely update the review if I ever go there and decide not to order oysters. The atmosphere is great, they've got booths and an awesome oyster bar. And it seems to be popular with crowds of all ages. Will definitely come here again and again and would recommend to anyone without a second thought.

    I only go here for oysters! If you ask me if they serve anything else besides oysters and gator tail, I don't know if I could answer you. This place has the best oysters imaginable. They're super fresh, you buy them by the bucket, and they shuck them right in front of you. The only problem is sometimes they can't shuck as fast as you can eat. There's a bar and television sets with games on usually. It's a great place to grab a bucket or two, a drink, and enjoy a game. Parking has never been a problem. Not that I can remember. The workers here are all great. They'll chat with you while they're serving you. This is the biggest reason why I want to revisit Florida!

    I went when I was on leave and back home in Florida. They didn't have any bucket deals because of an oyster shortage but they still were amazing. I would recommend Victorio's for anyone in the area.

    Well, they used to have a 4-5 star pizza here. They decided to become a seafood place, that's fine but the pizza has changed. We used to go here a few times a month. They never really attracted a crowd, it might have been because the dinning area, it is kind of small. They changed up and still only had a few occupied tables during dinner hour. The service wasn't all that great the waitress had maybe two other tables and we just barely got a drink refill. The pizza, I can tell that a different guy is making the pizza. It was totally different then it used to be. You know you go to a place and the pizza is totally different depending on who is making it. This pizza had a thicker chewy crust, where it used to be thinner. The pizza is closer to papa johns now, then Giovanni's, we will not be going back.

    $22 Oyster Buckets on Monday & Tuesday - Need I say more?? The place is kind of a dive, but the full bar and the oyster bar make it worthwhile. I have to admit that the enormous fish tank that separates the main restaurant from the oyster bar is pretty cool too. The menu is kind of weird ... seafood and Italian food are the main dishes, but I have to admit that they do well on both! The servers are ok, whereas the oyster bar shuckers are much more personable! Overall - The food is really good and the service could use some improvement, but I'll go back! Tip: Order some of the hushpuppies, fish dip or alligator tail to start ... all of them are great!

    Great stop for us weary travellers. Great oyster bar, Italian fare and other good choices, too. Service was outstanding - much better that I would expect from a casual place in a strip mall. (Waitress made a key rec for dessert!) Food was steaming and ready fast, too. May return before we leave at the end of the week.

    After several much more expensive seafood restaurants I've finally found a spot that I can't wait to return to. My fiance and I sat at the bar and received great service despite how busy the bar was. They carry a few craft beers and have a nicely stocked bar, which as a bartender I appreciate. We split the captain's platter which was a sampling of their oysters, shrimp, scallops, and crab legs. Everything was delightful: hot, fresh, well prepared and well seasoned. We saw a few other dishes come out including an awesome looking pizza. Word of caution their hot sauces are a bit hotter than the norm, which I enjoyed but not everyone may.

    We had the crab cakes, which were the best we'd had, and the blackened shrimp. Atmosphere it's bar like but nice. Oyster bar looks great too so we'll be back.

    This has been my favorite oyster joint for many years. If someone knows of another restaurant with a better raw bar (and comparable prices), you gotta tell me where it is... If I'm not in the mood for oysters, I'll get their calzones, pizza, or wings. It's all good. I recommend this place to everyone. 2 thumbs up

    Loved the raw oysters and peel and eat shrimp. This was my first time here and I didn't know I had to set at the oyster bar to get a bucket, but I enjoyed my oysters and next time I will belly up to the Oyster bar. I loved the fish tank and I may have to try the patio for some music and a drink.

    Fresh oysters from Florida clean environment staff who know what they are doing. My kind of restaurant fresh seafood they make you feel like you are the reason they are here My oysters were presented perfectly shucked. Clean and free of debris. They were good size, cleaner than most oyster bars I have visited over the years. another bonus they let you mix your own cocktail sauce which of course makes me happy. I ordered a take home for my wife which smelled awesome when tasted 20 minutes later on the money scampi shrimp, scallops and grilled mahi with steamed red potatoes and pasta which had a basic homemade tomato sauce on the high scale of acidity, could have used a little bit sugar to sweeten in my opinion. granted nothing fancy but all the seafood was fresh and just right. 12 oyster and seafood platter 30 bucks high quality ingredients life is good, Hush puppies were the only negative.

    Oysters, Oysters, Oysters! If you want one of those local places you would find on a travel food show, this is it! The food is great and fresh, but the Oyster Bar has a local welcoming feel that you just can't get anywhere else! Drink, eat, and be happy!

    Best oysters in Florida. The only time I've had oysters as good/better was in Ireland! All the other food offerings go from good to very good. I highly recommend Victorio's in LONGWOOD.

    I have to admit, I didn't eat the oysters so if that is what you are looking for, it seems this place may be a good fit. My husband and I are new to Orlando and so we are always looking for local favorites by reading the reviews. My thinking was that if the oysters are so good, the rest of the seafood should be as well...I was wrong! I picked the fried seafood thinking simple is best but it was terrible. I am pretty easy to please and how bad can you mess up fried food right? I got the pick two, fried shrimp and scallops. The shrimp was tough and I mean so chewy you could barely bite it in half, and they were butterflied which did not help with texture, and scallops... oh dear the scallops, if you want to call them that, they were not real scallops! You know those formed scallops, yea that's what they were! I couldn't believe it. My husband got the fried fish and it was thin, salty and soggy. Awww, I am so sorry but it just wasn't good. The french fries and hush puppies weren't bad however a little over cooked. Even the garlic bread that I ordered for an appetizer was blah, and I hate to bring this up but...the sweet tea was fountain! Sad to say this place just isn't the place to go unless you want the oysters apparently. On the plus side, there seemed to be quite a few regulars at the bar and our waitress was impeccable! They were busy but she was very attentive and had a beautiful smile on her face, loved the service!

    Went here after going to Lee and Ricks because the lady there actually recommended this place since it was closer to where we live. It's nice and roomy inside. You can choose to sit at the bar or in the dining area. We went for lunch and service was a little slow bc the server (Pretty Boy: this was on our receipt) seemed tired. Oysters were delicious but somewhat pricier than Lee and Ricks. A bucket was $18.95 and a dz for $8.95. Not too bad at all. It was a nice experience and I would def go back.

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Pizza

Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.

Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.

Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
