Perfect Place for great meal and outstanding service

by Stera

We had a Meal of Condolence after my mother-in-law passing in January 2009 at Victor's cafe. The owner accommodate 35 people, every dish was delicious and nice served. it was a sad occasion for us, but all out friends and family members like the food and atmosphere.

We definitely will come back for lunch or dinner. Various banquet menus are available. Russian ravioli, crepes, ice cream are very tasty.

• Pros: Best crepes and ice cream in Brookline,MA
• Cons: Place is small, but very cozy

Great Russian Food

by Ptichka

Victor's cafe will break all of your stereotypes about Russian food - you won't find extra heavy dishes with a lot of potatoes. Victor's specialty is "bliny" - thin filled crepes. He makes them with salmon fish roe, with smoked salmon, with chicken pate, or just about anything else. The crepes themselves are very light and not at all greasy. Other things to try are the "pelmeny" - Russian ravioli, and the pastry which he orders from the reknowned Cassis cafe in Beverly.
