The Scene – Although impresario Tilman Fertitta oversees hundreds of eateries in the Landry's Restaurants empire, this is the only one that sports the family name. Well, his father's (Vic) and cousin's (Anthony) names, to be precise. With its post-modern mix of gay '90s and ultra-contemporary decor, the eatery is both posh and brash. Dining room volume is considerable, tables are very close together and service can be erratic. – – The Food – Admirably brief, the menu offers a half-dozen red meat reliables including veal chop and filet mignon in addition to a couple…

Appropriate
by austinh
Went for the first time on Father's day with reservations easily had through their web page. We were promptly seated and served.
The steaks were appropriately cooked and marbled while the oysters Rockefeller were spot on. While I thought the quality of steak was comparable to Sullivans or Pappa Brothers, my dad thought V&A was better. Similar to Ruth Chris, they use quite a bit of butter and a tad of seasoning; I typically can go without the butter, but the steak was quite good none the less. The daily specials sounded delicious, but were overpriced. Side dishes sounded generic and bland -- we skipped them and added salads instead.
The atmosphere is upscale and a half-notch above the standard upscale steakhouses mentioned above. They have an excellent desert menu, with a wide variety of Cognac, brandy, and dessert wines.
- Pros: Good Service, Nice atmosphere
- Cons: Pricey

Good
by shinobi
I had dinner here last night with several friends. We had a very good experience with the food & service. I would highly recommend the au gratin potatoes & chocolate cake. I'm not big on sweets & typically don't order deserts, but the chocolate cake is great & will melt in your mouth. I would recommend Vic & Anthony's, but not the filet.
Iceberg wedge salad: 4/5
filet mignon: 3/5 - cooked right (medium), but dry & not flavorful
mashed potatoes: 4/5
au gratin potatoes: 5/5
chocolate cake: 5/5 - melts in your mouth
service: 5/5 - service w/ a smile
ambience: 5/5 - nice decor
- Pros: au gratin potatoes, chocolate cake, wine list, service

Disappointing
by stefftxgrl
I ordered the two most recommended items by the waitstaff and was extremely disappointed in both. The crab cake was fishy and the bone in ribeye was fatty and had no flavor.
For the price I think the food is highly overrated.
- Pros: Ambiance, Waitstaff, Valet
