“To the victor belong the spoils.”

Located on the sixth-floor rooftop, the Victor had spectacular views of BC Place, a water feature, and ambient lights. The Victor is located at Parq, Vancouver’s newest casino with two luxury hotels. 

The Victor is one of four restaurants at this entertainment destination, and is cleverly named to reflect the “spoils,” or wins, guests may experience while they stay, dine or play at Parq.

The Victor offers the ultimate dining experience with it’s classic North American steak and seafood menu. The meat carving station, fresh seafood and sushi bar, salad station and dessert bar were impressive. It had striploin steak that was perfectly seared to a medium-rare. It was tender, moist and flavourful. Grainy mustard and chimichurri were served as complementary accompaniments to this cut of beef. This is definitely a must-try!

The fresh seafood bar had crab legs, oysters and clams on display. The sushi bar was excellent. The rectangular dishes of various nigiri and rolls looked elevated. I was impressed with the quality of sushi at the restaurant.

There was a lovely and enticing dessert bar, which showcased some items on their menu, plus candy.
