Nestled at the crossroads of Boston's neighborhoods, Victoria's Diner serves up hefty breakfast plates, comfort food classics, and a heaping dose of nostalgia 24/7 since '49.
"Victoria’s Diner has a lengthy dessert list, with several classics, including baked apple (with ice cream, if you so desire), blueberry, and lemon meringue. There’s also a seasonal pumpkin, a bourbon pecan pie, and chocolate cream pie." - Celina Colby, Dana Hatic
"The Vic has been open since 1949 (ownership has changed hands since then, though) and is one of the most — if not the most — iconic diners in Boston. Try the thick and fluffy challah French toast, the hangover burger — an eight-ounce patty topped with cheese, bacon, a fried egg, and blanketed in a black pepper maple syrup aioli — or the eggs and sirloin steak tips cooked to order." - Erika Adams, Terrence Doyle
"Boston doesn’t really have the extensive diner scene that some other cities enjoy, but there are some classic spots in town where one can eat big portions of traditional brunch all day long (and milkshakes, of course). Victoria’s Diner is one such destination, serving hefty plates of eggs Benedict, stuffed French toast, omelets, and more from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily (3 p.m. Friday through Sunday)." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"This family-run legendary diner first opened its doors in 1949 on Massachusetts Avenue, at the crossroads of Dorchester, Roxbury, South Boston, and the South End. Though customers will find the usual comfort food favorites on the restaurant’s colossal menu, like stacked burgers smothered with cheese, check out the sandwich section for lighter vegetarian bites, such as a portobello avocado panini with basil aioli, served on focaccia." - Nathan Tavares
"A simple, satisfying dish on the menu at this longtime Newmarket dining spot, the mac and cheese comes with a creamy four-cheese sauce and an option for adding a slab of bone-in short rib for a little extra sustenance. Victoria’s Diner also has a version topped with Buffalo chicken." - Dana Hatic
