What diners say

“Been coming here for 3 years, food is amazing. Even the complimentary bread is outstanding. Tried the Oak Park Paloma and the roseyfrench martini both were delicious. The best part of the night was our server Dave. He was super knowledgeable and kind. The first time we came here 2 years ago we had him and been coming back ever since. Definitely recommend!!”

“We had a great experience dining at Victory Italian Oak Park. The food tasted great, the service was attentive and we look forward to going back. Pictured are the NY Strip Gambino style, Nanna's Gravy pasta dish and the Rigatoni Alla Vodka pasta dish. The outdoor dining are would be more inviting with plants dressing up the area. We chose to dine inside. If you have a party of 4, I recommend against a high top table, because the space is limited.”

“Our first time eating at Victory Italian. My best friend picked the place for my birthday dinner today. The Chicken Parmesan was amazing! So was the cheesecake. Generous portions and great service. Our waiter Jake was a real sweetie. We will be going back! Update (7/17/2024): I went back for my birthday! My friend offered to take me anywhere, and I chose Victory Italian. Everything was just as great as my first visit. I ordered my favorite drink (twice), a Long Island ice tea, and they were delicious. Staff were all very friendly and attentive. This time, I tried the pork chops Calabrese (which came with delicious potatoes), and I loved it!”

“Very nice decor, The waiter was nice. The the portion sizes were generous everyone took home left overs. Calamari was tasty Steak was over seasoned and the risotto a bit bland. The lamb chops were delicious. Lasagna was a bit salty. Drinks were on point! We arrived at 2pm on a Friday no wait. It was a bit on the pricier side but overall a good time.”

“Food was cold, entress were rushed because "kitchen was closing" when orders went in 45 minutes before closing. When GM checked 5 minutes after google posted closing, commenting was i wish you told me sooner...we still had entrees, how much sooner would you like. Check came and there was no correcrion. Appetizers out behind bar on counter for 15+ minutes behind bar, and no adjustment. Check came and there was no discount applied after informing that food was cold and inedible Been to this location a number of times, it appears to continue to be on a downward trend. Loved this establishment in the past and hospitality was above and beyond, seems to be lacking over the past 3 months.”
