🎉 Happiest of birthdays to Laura — a Victoria’s original! ❤️

Laura has been with us since DAY ONE — almost 29 years! She greets our guests up front, jumps in to help the kitchen whenever needed, and somehow makes it all look effortless.

Dependable. Energetic. Calm. Efficient. Friendly. And she knows this place inside and out!

Oh, and Laura has another superpower: she can BAKE. Her banana bread is legendary, and that annual holiday cookie platter? We wait all year for it. 🍌🍪

29 years, countless guests, a whole lot of banana bread — and one very special Laura.

Happy Birthday! We ❤️ you!

Happy Birthday to the one who keeps ALL the wheels turning! 🎉❤️

Schedules. Food orders. Phone lists. Employee files. And the 847 other things the rest of us forget. 😂

Teacher. Caregiver. Friend. Fixer. Keeper of the chaos.

Selfless, generous and absolutely irreplaceable.

We’d be a hot mess without you. Happy Birthday, Kristi! We love and adore you! ♥️

You know it’s going to be a good day when you get to “quality control” the Alfredo sauce. 😋 one of the “more difficult” jobs in the restaurant- 😂😂😂

The luckies are in for a treat today!

A third-grade teacher looking to make a little extra cash + a restaurant family always looking for someone willing to jump into the chaos. 😂

A few years ago, we found Joanie - and it was a match made in heaven.

There is literally NOTHING Joanie won’t do. Events, catering, organizing, cleaning, helping guests, setting up, tearing down, fixing whatever mess the rest of us created…she’s in.

Her superpowers? Organization, patience, kindness and the ability to deal with all of us. And trust us—the patience of a saint comes in VERY handy around here.

Joanie may have come to us for a side gig, but somewhere along the way she became family.

We love you, Joanie- Happy Birthday 🎊 ❤️❤️

Some traditions become family.

For more than 20 years, this incredible group has gathered every Thursday evening at Victoria’s. Over the years, spouses and friends have joined the table. Together they’ve celebrated birthdays, milestones, retirements, and life’s everyday moments. They’ve also said goodbye to a few dear friends along the way.

A few weeks ago, one of the Thursday night crew unexpectedly passed away following what was supposed to be a routine surgery. She had no immediate family, only the family she had built around this table.

Without hesitation, this remarkable group stepped in. They cleaned out her apartment, organized a beautiful celebration of her life, and then returned to the place where so many memories were made—Victoria’s—for dinner, served by the same server who has taken care of them every Thursday for the past two decades.

It’s a powerful reminder that family isn’t always defined by blood. Sometimes it’s built through years of laughter, shared meals, unwavering loyalty, and simply showing up for one another.🩵

Thank you Olive Juice Studios for capturing this memory! !

Special delivery arrived this week! 🍓🌿

The joys of an employee with connections are endless! 🤍

Nothing says the heart ♥️ of summer quite like a fresh Rhubarb Strawberry Crisp. Made with love and straight from the legendary Feyens, using local ingredients.

Fresh. Local. Homemade. The only downside? It tends to disappear faster than we’d like. 😉

After 20 years, we’re finally letting Valentin leave the building. 😭

Over the years he’s been a busser, server, bartender, manager…and occasionally our unofficial therapist, translator, problem solver, and table whisperer.

Need a difficult table handled? Send Valentin.
Need someone to explain the specials in two languages? Send Valentin.
Need someone to smooth over a kitchen mistake with a smile? Definitely send Valentin.

Now he’s trading in carrying trays for selling them as he starts a new career with Sysco Foods, where his bilingual skills and personality are going to make him a rock star.

Valentin, thank you for 20 years of loyalty, hard work, and countless memories. You helped shape the culture of Victoria’s, and you leave some very big shoes to fill.

We couldn’t be happier for you…but if Sysco doesn’t work out, your apron is hanging exactly where you left it.

Good luck—🤍🙌🏼
