Great evening out  - Lovely evening with great service, the whole experience was fun and extremely enjoyable, would totally recommend and go back again soon

  The perfect birthday dinner! - My girlfriend booked the restaurant for my birthday. Had an amazing experience overall. We got to sit in a private booth which made the setting more intimate. Rob our waiter... read more was super friendly and really took care of us.

Verena and the team really went the extra mile to make the day special for us. They ordered me a birthday balloon, decorated the table and even got me a cake. I ordered the ribeye steak and my girlfriend the fish. The food was fresh, tasted great and great portion sizes. Will definitely be visiting again when we return to Deal.

  What a superb restaurant!  - What a superb restaurant!
My wife and I had guinea fowl followed by a pannacotta with rhubarb. These were very well cooked and presented and tasted delicious. There was... read more a lovely atmosphere in the busy dining room (Sunday evening) with excellent service.
We would highly recommend to others wanting a quality experience.

  Just perfect! - Just amazing! My husband and I went to Victuals & Co on a Saturday evening a couple of weeks ago. We were greeted by two lovely staff members who were... read more so welcoming and friendly. The waitress even took our coats for us and hung them up.
The venue and decor is wonderful and everything was very clean. It’s such a nice romantic little place and we couldn’t fault a single thing!
All of the food we had was simply divine. Everything was full of flavour and presented beautifully. Everything came out within good time and was hot and fresh. Unfortunately, we couldn’t manage a dessert as the starter and main completely filled us up. The cocktails were made to absolute perfection too..my husband had 2 and he doesn’t usually drink!
This is definitely one of our new favourite places to eat and we can’t wait to go back again soon and hopefully leave some room for a dessert next time.

  Best meal this year - Excellent food, excellent friendly service, comfortable atmosphere and staff that went out of their way to make sure I got my birthday cake and bubbles. Thank you for a very... read more enjoyable evening, best birthday meal! Will definitely be coming back.

  Excellent Restaurant. - Picked this restaurant based on Tripadvisor reviews and were not disappointed. We were first in after opening and was met with a very friendly welcome. Menus and drinks provided we... read more decided on the ribeye steak and chalk stream trout. Both dishes were cooked superbly well and with a couple of extra sides including the smoked broccoli we all thoroughly enjoyed the meal. It was a pity our timings didn’t allow for starters and deserts as these would have undoubtedly been equally as good. If we were to visit Deal again we would certainly put Victuals on the agenda.

  Bday meal - We visited this restaurant tonight and my husband was amazed by food and service. He said it was the best birthday meal ever

  Fabulous service at this great restaurant. - We had a very enjoyable mid week evening meal at this restaurant.
The staff were excellent and so welcoming and informative. Food was delicious and extremely well presented. The restaurant... read more was clearly very busy but that did not mean the service wasn’t excellent. Tia, Verina and Karen were all absolutely brilliant at looking after us. Great atmosphere. Will definitely be back if we come to Deal again.

  Delicious dinner at Victuals and Co - Lovely welcoming cosy restaurant, great atmosphere. Lots of happy customers. Food was delicious we will definitely return.

  Last minute date night at an old haunt - My wife and I booked in last minute, we haven’t been to Victuals for a while and we were really pleased to see a very different menu.

The... read more service was superb and we were very well looked after. The waiting staff had an excellent knowledge of their wines and menu.

The food was superb, two dishes stood out for us. The main I had, Guinea Fowl and Gnocchi which was delicious, the Guinea Fowl was perfectly cooked and the jus was packed with umami goodness.

My wife had a raw Japanese style tuna dish to start, she’s a bit of a sushi snob so was a little nervy about ordering. The waitress highly recommended it and she wasn’t wrong. My wife said it’s the best dish she has had this year so far!

All in all, a delicious meal, great service and at a fair price. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Great to see Victuals is still one of the best restaurants in Deal.

  Small and intimate - This is a quaint restaurant with quite a small selection on the menu. The tables are well spaced although there is a lot of background noise. The Tuna tatami for... read more starters was superb and very much a highlight of the meal. Victuals Signature Burger was not quite up to expectations being rather dry. There dishes ordered by the other guests were described as very good however. Strawberry Semifredo was refreshing with succulent fruit. We also had 2 bottles of Carmenere red wine at £30/bottle which was enjoyable. Overall a good meal which worked out at about £50/head including service. Somewhere to go for a celebration or small party.

  Date night - Food was fabulous and the staff were lovely. The only thing I would change is the booth seating in the corner. The material is so hot, that I could barely... read more enjoy the food. Which was Delish! Will visit again, but won't want to sit on the corner booth seating. Definitely will want to sit outside in the summer for drinks and food! Yummy!

  Fantastic little find in Deal - Just had an amazing meal. The staff were lovely and Rob was very attentive, and entertaining. He knew his product and recommended some very good toffee liquor from Maidstone

  Excellent experience for a wet Thursday night - What a pleasant surprise. Lovely welcome from Robert, a host par excellence.
Great food, great wine 5* all the way. The rhubarb dessert was really yummy, the best restaurant dessert... read more I’ve had for ages
Thoroughly recommend.

  Saturday lunch - Having identified this as a restaurant we’d like to eat at on our bike ride around Thanet I booked online that morning.

Tucked away off the high street it... read more has a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly welcome and surprisingly quiet for a Saturday lunchtime as only one other table occupied although we were joined later by three other tables of guests.

Attractive and short menu, reasonable selection of wines. We went for three courses and all were very good. Well cooked and presented.

We had wine by the glass which was good and helped when we came to cycle away.

A good place to eat. Cosy and intimate with good food and service.

  We had a lovely meal here, the food was incredible and the staff were so friendly. A must visit for Deal!

  When we go to new areas we rely quite heavily on trip advisor reviews. Therefore when reading the previous review to this place it did make us question coming here.... read more However when reading the owners reply it made us laugh! We gave it ago and so glad we did! Went to book online and they was fully booked (a good sign) we tried our luck and rang them, they managed to squeeze us in and even when we rang and was running 20 minutes late, it was no problem for them. This is a small cosy restaurant with the best food and fantastic staff! As soon as you walk in you are greeted and offered to take our coats. We were taken to our table. We honestly couldn't fault a thing. We had starters and mains and all was delicious! There is a little wait on food however when the food was this good, you know its being done fresh. I feel like everyone is so used to everything being ready when we click our fingers, quality takes time. And when I say it takes a little while, we was probably only in there just over an hour, so it really wasn't long at all and probably just felt longer to us because we was hungry when leaving we had a proper conversation with the staff as well, it was a 'let's be polite and reply to what the customer says' either. They are genuinely great people and compliments to everyone there! We will recommend this place to everyone visiting deal.

  We arrived for a 2:30 Sunday lunch, to be greeted by a sullen waitress. We were seated in a very cold dining area and offered a wine list and menu.... read more /> About ten minutes later the waitress returned asking us for our wine order, we chose a Merlot and told her we were ready to order our food. She said she could take the wine order but we would have to wait to order our lunch. Ten minutes later she returned and took our lunch order. While this was going on my feet were freezing and my friend was getting very cold. Forty minutes later our lunch was served cold on cold plates! Remember this is December and it’s 3’C outside.
Obviously, we sent the foo back, however it took another twenty minutes for the warmed up food to return. The food was unbelievably overcooked. We left most of it, Paid £72 for the privilege, complained and left.

  Had dined at this restaurant when it first opened and was very disappointed , so after a few years and with new owners we decided to re visit.
What a... read more pleasant surprise. The meal was excellent!!
Its a small menu which leads one to believe everything is freshly cooked.
Presentation, Quality and service was excellent. The cocktails were a little expensive, more than we paid at Joe Allans in Covent Garden but, they were very good.
The only minor let down and it is minor is that the restaurant Manager was wearing cut down jeans which to my mind is not conducive to a top quality restaurant. In every other way he was very attentive, friendly and professional !! just please, wear long trousers!!
So, All in all a great night with great ambiance and food!! will definitely return. Probably the best restaurant in Deal particularly if you are a real foodie. Could not fault it!

  An anniversary dinner and our first visit. Loved the additional anniversary touches on our table, service was attentive and perfect and the food was beautifully tasty. My husband commented that... read more his chips were the best he has ever had!
A great experience.
