    Another delicious meal and experience at the wonderful Victory Park Tavern. Our server, Melissa, was excellent and pleasant as she always is. The food was outstanding. We started with the burrata and fig jam special which was so good. My husband and daughter each had the hangar steak which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. So flavorful according to both! I had the Chilean sea bass which was awesome. I continue to highly recommend VPT for delicious and creative food and a most enjoyable all-around dining experience.

    Semolina is always our first choice when we come back to NJ. As usual is was phenomenal!!! The coffee crusted venison carpaccio was tender and delicious. I had the squash angolotti that were plump and the creamy sauce has just enough truffle and pepper notes. My husband had the spicy octopus ragú and it was light and flavorful. Finished the night with a hefty pot de crème that was perfection. Trish was out server and she was attentive, witty and efficient as the dining room was filling up punctuated by Bryson and Jillian who made sure we had everything we needed. once again walked away full and happy!
