Just to reiterate...If you want to be treated poorly, order beers that can be readily found at Wegmans, and have overall mediocre food, then head to victoire. The only thing I liked was the mussels. The dubbel braised wings (which I should have known better to order braised wings) were gummy from the braising and just plain awful. Usually the Old Toad has more one to two far more interesting, if at least rarer Belgian beers and many more in the bottle . I was hoping this would be Rochester's answer to the Blue Monk in Buffalo (Which has a fantastic beer selection both for the Belgian novice and beer hunter, and very good food) but it turns out just to be another bad interpretation from the same group that has brought more blah restaurants and bars to Rochester.
