Vic & Al’s

The menu changes regularly at Vic & Al’s, a cajun spot on Manor Road from some of the people behind the popular food trailer, Patrizi’s. But a few things you’ll usually find include blackened catfish, fried chicken thighs, and slow-roasted pork—a.k.a. cochon de lait—usually served in a po’boy, over sassafras rice, or in a salad.

Come here for a casual date night that you don’t have to think too much about or plan ahead. The food might arrive on small metal trays, and ordering might take place at the counter, but dining at Vic & Al’s feels like a big step up from your average walk-up restaurant, with consistently great food and affordable cocktails.
