We came here for a special occasion and were really pleased by the service. There were lovely touches recognising the special occasion when we arrived and this was much appreciated. The food was excellent and there is a good selection of wines, including lots of great English wines. Very happy to recommend this restaurant.

Great meal, nice place to be, good service- not rushed. The steak was as I asked for," lovely" and a selection of veg with couliflower-chees on the side. Good choice in wine and drinks all served with a smile. The menue had several choices, which chainges weekly and weekends. Booking is required which you would expect from a highish-enb resterant. In all, an easy 5***** service all round, happy to recommend.

Birthday celebration dinner and the restaurant lived up to the evening. Nestling in a small alleyway off the main high street the Victuals is a warm and cosy brasserie. Staff greeted us with a warm reception and the service remained attentive and friendly throughout our evening. Food lovely and well prepared. I had fish (halibut) which was beautifully prepared. The dessert of almond and orange cake was delicious.

I’ve worked in the wine industry for many years, and I’ve been lucky enough to go to some of the top restaurants. This little gem is definitely on my list of places to visit.Everything about the place is perfect. Excellent staff, atmosphere, fantastic food and great wine. All at a very reasonable price.We shall be making another trip from London to visit again.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Outstanding dining experience from the moment we stepped inside. Such a warm welcome from one of the owners and fabulous waiter service. Food absolutely first class - we had the 2 course menu for £25/head which was perfectly portioned. Excellent wine list starting at around £28/bottle, plus a complimentary glass of fizz for each of us (and a hand written Happy Birthday placemat!) to celebrate my friend’s birthday. Cannot fault our experience. The food was served at a perfectly leisurely pace so we never felt rushed. All in all a perfect evening.

Had a wonderful Sunday roast with our friends cannot recommend it high enough. The only fault I found was the fact there is only 1 toilet and ladies sharing toilets with men who leave seats up wee on the floor etc etc is not good I would suggest having a man’s toilet I can see why you have done it. There are some people who may have certain health issues where they need the loo more often than others and also may take a longer time in the toilet thank you for our lovely Sunday roasts though we thoroughly enjoyed them.

A very good meal. Food was great, good selection, desserts were great. Nice atmosphere with v good service. Characterful location. Our group was very pleased and plan to return.
Had Sunday lunch with the family for my wife’s birthday. Roast rump of beef with all the trimmings was fantastic. Can’t recommend highly enough, staff, food, wine and atmosphere were lovely. Booking process on line was really easy too. We’ll be back for an evening meal soon. Thanks for making it special.

Absolutely amazing place to eat. Great atmosphere, staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. Fantastic food, couldn't fault a thing, everything we chose was cooked to perfection (starters - mackerel, haddock tart & prosciutto. Mains- curry coated cod, lamb bon bon and ribeye steak) and presented beautifully Even the wine was superb (Argentina malbec) Highly recommended going here 5*+

Outstanding on every level. Service was spot on. It’s a quaint yet stylish little place. The food was utterly incredible. Fresh, vibrant, delicious, perfect sized portions. I can’t rave about it enough, our only regret is that we didn’t find you sooner. We’ll definitely be back and so will our friends x Debbie and Mike

Nice restaurant, with very helpful staff and lovely food. We’d definitely recommend it and go again next time we’re in Deal.

We had the 'raid the larder' menu on Sunday evening. The food was superb, starters were perfect, and an even better ribeye steaks, cod and lamb followed. All absolutely delicious. Just enough room for dessert and my strawberry panna cotta was just so yummy. Good wine selection and the service was efficient, friendly but not overwhelming. Good atmosphere in the restaurant which was busy. It's a little pricy but you do get what you pay for. Definitely the very best restaurant in Deal.
