Excellent food - we had the duck and the sole and both were outstanding. Appetizers were also tasty and shareable. Jerome was the bartender/our server and he was attentive, professional and extremely efficient.

We had another nice dinner at Vic's. Great service. I could eat that pear salad every day and be happy. Great crab cakes and for me the peach trio dessert is a must. Excellent service from Matthew. Oh and a nice Pinot Noir we hadn't tried before. We keep this place on our Savannah restaurant list and are never disappointed.

We had a lovely Christmas brunch at 22 Square today. The overworked staff stayed positive and friendly through a busy peak time, and the food was excellent. A comfortable casual environment for a daytime meal across from the Square. Thank you!
