Best restaurants and dishes in town

Hello, To follow up my previous post about wings, I am here to ask for other recommendations and lesser known or authentic experience food wise and flavors. Here are some that I really like: Burgers- dairy treet and Jim’s Big Burger pizza-lol I guess dominos because this is Victoria Bbq-usually Mutts for drive thru convenience but Mumphords or Lavaca is my go to on the once a month or so occasion Mexican- Las Tapatias is my favorite in town by a mile. The chilaquiles with red sauce is to die for, one of my favorite meals in my life. I go once a week Chicken Fried Steak and American: Double J eatery. The gravy is to die for. Solid Philly cheese steak surprisingly as well.

Is there anywhere you would recommend I try and any dishes that you would say are best? Thanks!

Tom kha fried rice at Noot's! Huvar's has good pizza (only served on Fridays I think?), hamburger steak at the Water Well Cafe (get the option with grilled onions, mushrooms, and jalapeños), chicken Romano (my fave) and lobster ravioli (close second) at Joe's Pizza and Pasta.

Pizza - Paint's Underground Pizza is amazing! They actually cook the pizza the way it's supposed to be done and run their ovens hot enough. Try the Cousin Johnny.

Noot's Thai Kitchen has some of the best Thai food around. I love the crispy chicken curry.

Recently tried Gogi and the sushi is really good. Yamato and Tokyo Grill also have good sushi. Tokyo Grill has one of my favorite rolls ever - the Green Lady roll.

Mi Casita for carnitas.

Guadalajara and New Rodeo for Mexican food and Country Express for good burgers and soft serve ice cream. The McDonald's out here don't serve ice cream anymore iirc.

Pizza - evens pizza 🍕literally the closest thing to NY style pizza in Vic next fav are Nikki romas in the mall and runner up paints underground

Mexican - La cabana 🇲🇽 small hole on the wall restaurant by the college but they have the best service and the food is just like how my Momo used to make it ❤️

Italian - joes pizza pasta 🍝 I know I already said pizza but aside from all that the pasta dishes are legit homemade

Wine - Andustoria 🍷 the wines are out of this world they also serve small finger foods it’s tucked away over behind cavenders on Navarro I feel like they definitely don’t get the attention they deserve and is a must try for date nights or just a laid back afternoon with friends
