Victor's Wood Grill

My go to place every time I go to Dallas! This place is phenomenal!! Great service, friendly people, great atmosphere, love the open kitchen, a local hotspot for sure, dinner at the bar is guaranteed to intro you to some great locals, food is excellent especially the shrimp cocktail and pork w/ capers!!Go! You'll love it!

After hearing the legend of The Meatballs--bathed in some magical cognac sauce that I imagined as a stroganoff-esque dream--I knew I had to try them. So, we rolled up right at 5 PM when they opened, only to find a small crowd already gathering like they were waiting for concert tickets.We took a quick phone call in the car, figuring we had plenty of time. Big mistake. By the time we strolled in at 5:10, the bar was completely packed. Where did these people even come from?! We were relegated to one of the three bar-area tables (fine, but not the same vibe).Now, here's what I didn't know--this place has a different list of specials every single night. Apparently, this is a big deal because the regulars were pumped. But I wasn't here for nightly specials. I was here for those damn meatballs.Since it was 5 PM, I figured it was the perfect time for a cocktail. I love a blue cheese-stuffed olive martini, and they had one on the menu. It arrived in a lovely glass, perfectly chilled, but the olive itself? Meh. Not enough blue cheese for my liking.We also got the mac and cheese (made with my fave, cavatappi pasta), and finally, The Meatballs arrived. And? They were... fine. Pretty small, not life-changing, but hey, I tried them. Mission accomplished. No urgent need to return, but if you love chasing down nightly specials like a treasure hunt, this might be your spot.

Good little spot. Located at the corner of a strip mall, lots of parking all around. We got their a little before our reservation and time and they were full, so we went to the bar to have a drink. Extremely friendly bartenders they made great gin and tonics! 5 stars for their bar.After we were seated at our table, the waiter came by and introduced himself. We started with their special lobster dumpling and they were delicious! Next we tried their green chili chicken stew and it was very good, they ran out of corn bread which was a bummer, but glad we got to try the stew. Next we split a Caesar salad and it was not good...damp lettus and just not very tasty, oh and they charge to split a salad....waiter should have mentioned. For the main course, my husband had their seafood special, the barramundi and it was nice and fresh..very good flavors. I have the pork chop and it was tasty. Our waiter disappeared for close to 20 minutes..not cool:( we order the blackberry crisp and it was good, came with scoop of ice cream.Wine list was on the smaller side. We did enjoy a bottle from the weekly special menu. Defiantly nothing fancy inside, small dining area with dated decor, dark lighting with carpet flooring....but the food was good and their prices were great. Nice date night spot. We will return!

Had a little birthday dinner here and Ricky was our server- he was friendly and fantastic! Victors seems to be a Coppell staple. When we arrived, the hostess seated us at a table in the corner that felt almost like it was a storage area, we politely asked to relocate- she was a little awkward and moved pretty slowly to give us a response so we were just standing in the middle of the dining room waiting for her to answer- it worked out and was fine but super awk for a few. Food:-try the artichoke, so flavorful and fun to eat. The dipping sauce was divine and the artichoke was seasoned all the way through. -the meatballs were good, loved the sauce. -we had some hot bread and buttered those slices up! -the clam chowder was meaty and hearty! -dessert was divine, we loved the crème brûlée and the chocolate cake was good but very rich!Overall a wonderful experience- Ricky took good care of us. The set up was a little tight- when you walk in the hostess stand is right there and then it immediately opens up to seating. You Cana lap see into the Kochchi which is fun but the window area had a lot of items that made it look junky and not clean (cups and ingredients all cluttered and scattered) it could be a great view if it were clean and tidy.

Third visit to Victor's. As always, the food, atmosphere and service were fantastic. If I had one suggestion it would be an easier, more automated reservation system. Having to call during certain hours, getting voicemail since someone's on the other line, and being told not to leave a message but call back later seems a bit involved and antiquated.

As a Coppellian it saddens me that I had been missing out on such an amazing place. My husband made reservations for 5pm for our date night. Upon arrival, we were seated right away. The ambiance of the restaurant is a bit dark and intimate, the perfect place to have a date night or anniversary dinner. I really appreciated the fact that you can see the food being prepared. For starters we ordered the shrimp cocktail. This shrimp cocktail was not like anything I have ever had, the cocktail sauce was homemade and it had some sort of salad inside which was so delicious. We also ordered the soft shell crab to share, and it was nice and crispy with a lot of flavor. For our entrees, we both ordered the Bistro Steak. The Bistro steak was the best piece of steak I have ever put in my mouth. It was so flavorful, that it melted in my mouth. It came paired with perfectly cooked asparagus and juicy cherry tomatoes. Cocktail wise I had a pineapple martini, and a lemon drop martini. Both drinks were really good, but the lemon drop was my favorite. My husband had a mule and he seemed to have enjoyed that as well. To end the night we had the chocolate bag for our dessert, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the perfect amount of sweetness to end the night. The service was amazing. Our waiter Ricky went above and beyond, making sure we were taken care of. He was friendly, gave us food recommendations, and always had a smile on his face. Overall I highly recommend this place. Try it!! You will not be disappointed!!

The service and food at Victors is always top-notch. Took my Mom on her visit here and we both left full and completely satisfied. She had the special of beef tips with cheese perogies and mushrooms and I had the cornmeal battered catfish over greens, mashed potatoes with a franks red hot sauce. We shared a side of whipped sweet potatoes with cranberry relish and the garlic Parmesan grits. The grits were the best we'd ever had! If Gus is working at the bar have him make you an espresso martini - Top Notch! If you haven't gone to Victors you need to, but make sure you have reservations.

Nice, quiet restaurant with a pretty romantic atmosphere. My husband made a reservation on a weeknight for my birthday a while back. We got a table right by the open kitchen and it was fun to watch them cook and work. Staff was very friendly during dinner time and when my husband was calling about reservations.We ordered the devilled eggs, steak, and scallop special. Food was absolutely delicious. Overall, great experience!

It tasted like shit the steak I ordered was raw and the fries were overcooked.My kids had a kids meal and a toy that had inappropriate stuff.I recommend to not come here period.

Wonder dinner. My husband and grown son had such a pleasant evening there. The food was great, atmosphere gracious.
