    Cheese and Al pastor tacos.  The Mayan slow roasted pork taco was even better.
    Andrew A.

    Quaint and comfy DB Cooper themed bar; Victor 23 is in reference to the airway that planes travel between Seattle and Portland and further south. Good beer and the Oaxacan tacos and salad were better than expected for bar food. Cool bartender and parking wasn't an issue.

    What a fun themed brewery! I had to look up the theme and meaning behind Victor 23 and thought it was very clever and unique! I had a flight of beer while visiting. The beer was alright. There wasn't one beer that I felt like I needed to drink more of. The staff was friendly and there was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available.

    Service dog friendly.

    Vic 23. Is a place to enjoy great tacos and nachos Tuesday nights!! They have a wide selection of their very own crafted beers to satisfy everyone. I am also impressed with their 'guest' tap cider, which seems to change regularly. If you are looking for great service, plus a fun atmosphere...definite must stop. It is great for groups, friends get togethers, or a simple night out.

    Another awesome neighborhood brewery in the Couve! I have come here on several occasions to grab a beer, which are always very good. But what stands out about this place and typically our reason to come back is THE FOOD. Here you don't get your regular pub grub burgers or pizza, you can get amazing nachos topped with tender, tasty brisket for a great price. The pic I posted is the half order! There's a really great selection of tacos and nachos that always knock it out of the park. The brewery itself smells so good when you walk in and it certainly makes sense given the incredibly tasty food.

    D.B. Cooper mystery solved! I think I know what happened to Dan "DB" Cooper who hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305 from Portland to Seattle on Thanksgiving eve, November 24, 1971. He opened (or inspired, you be the judge) a small-batch craft brewery in Vancouver, Washington. That microbrewery is Victor-23 Craft Brewery named after the flight path from Seattle to Reno which the airplane was on when the legendary antihero parachuted from the back with $200,000 in negotiable American currency ... and landed in brewing history. I tried 3 India Pale Ales, 2 appetizers, and left 1 happy hostage of great service at the bar, hefty food, and intoxicating booze. * Mischief Maker Hazy IPA (5 stars) At 6.2% abv and 15 ibu, this cloudy New England-style brew is mischievous without being devious thanks to candied fruit hints from lemon, grapefruit, lime, peach, apricot, and papaya. * Rip Cord Hazy IPA (4.5 stars) Pull this seasonal beer and float safely away from sobriety thanks to 6% abv and fruity flavors like pineapple, grapefruit, tangerine, melon, and orange blossom. * Skyjacker IPA (4.5 stars) Available year round, the Victor 23 flagship IPA hops into your liver with a tinge of grapefruit, papaya, Meyer lemon, rose, and pine at 65 ibu and 6.5% abv. * Battered Fish Taco (3 stars) Just $4 each, the fish taco wasn't expensive. It also wasn't great. Nor was it horrible. It was a simple and safe 3-star soft taco made with Northwest-style fried fish. * Pork Carnitas Nachos (4 stars) A half order was huge and only $8. Since I was drinking and nibbling alone, I'm glad I didn't get the regular size of this baked pile of thick tortilla chips and thicker cheddar-style cheese topped with chunks of pork, sour cream, and jalapeno slices. The food wasn't 5 stars while the beers were almost 5 stars, but Victor-23 Craft Brewery is 5 stars because I had a great time, enjoyed the brews, and the service was sooo friendly. Most importantly, I can rest tonight knowing I personally solved the D.B. Cooper case. Where do I collect the reward?

    Great beer at Victor-23!

    Victor 23 Craft Brewery is a fun one! The concept is unique as it is themed to the D.B. Cooper story( A skyjacking by an unidentified man that happened in 1971 by an unidentified man that occurred in the Pacific Northwest in the airspace between Portland and Seattle). The concept in of itself makes this brewery fairly memorable at least for me! The beer is very good as well which also helps with keeping this brewery in mind for future reference. Steve and I got a couple of types of beer here that we really liked. We had the Mile High Blonde which had an excellent crispness to it and the Skyjacker which was a great India Pale Ale. The setup to the taproom is spacious and clean and the staff here were very accommodating and friendly which definitely put this brewery as a favored stop on our most recent trip to the Portland area.

    First time having Rally Pizza. Lived up to the hype.
    Bill J.

    Outstanding service. Place was packed due to the rebirth of Rally Pizza. I was stuck in line behind someone who couldn't make up their mind about what beer to order. The second staff member behind the counter came out to the line and asked me if I needed beer. Of course was the answer.

    Taco

    Nice place with good food and beer. Basically it has a Mexican menu and they do it very well. The Mayan pork and chicken tacos were outstanding. The carne asada didn't wow us as much. Very chewy and not much seasoning. The Nachos are very big and above average. Unfortunately I am a Lager drinker and didn't care for their lightest beers but my wife loved the Ale she ordered. The one Cider on tap was a Maple cider. I will say it tasted exactly like a maple bar donut and wasn't to either of our liking. Way too sweet and one sip was enough. We liked the cool vibe and the people working there are very nice. Go and have fun! We'll be back.

    New menu!

    Have loved coming here for the 3 years that I've lived nearby but the new food menu is incredible! The pastor and slow roasted pork tortas are amazing

    Brisket sandwich
    Alysia M.

    We came on a Wednesday night for dinner. I had ordered the Reuben sandwich, but we were informed after sitting that they were out. I opted for the brisket sandwich. It was okay. It was dry and I felt like it needed mustard, horseradish or bbq sauce. I'd give this place another try though.

He enjoys playing dj with his curated music, which also had merit, but again was too loud for a weekday lunch. I'm not an old fart, (I think he and I were close to the same age) but old enough to have lost some hearing in my youth, and it was still a bit loud. The pork rinds were good, surprisingly generous and tasted very fresh. I liked the Tajin on them, but would have preferred it to be an option (shaker on the table) rather than just full coverage. I would have shared them, but the person I was dining with doesn't care do the spice. I ordered the bbq bacon cheeseburger with the sauce on the side and it was a generous portion, that was well-cooked. Just the way I ordered it! That being said, the beef was relatively tasteless and the whole sandwich was extremely greasy. The bacon on the sandwich was plentiful and not as greasy as the burger and cheese. I don't know the fries would be seasoned. It may or may not have been on the menu, I honestly can't recall. The place seemed well kept and customer oriented, food service wise, but the ambiance could be dialed down for the lunch crowd. If there was an alternate burger available nearby, I might not give Brothers a second chance. But I can't hate on it. Just a few too many flaws for the price, which was not cheap. Paying over $5 for a Mexican Coke was pretty steep since I didn't see any fountain options. But lastly, too be fair, the bartender was VERY kind!
