    It's my third visit here, and honestly, every time we're in the area, we make it a point to stop by for their burritos. I usually go for the carne asada burrito--it's consistently flavorful and satisfying. Service has always been great, and the ambiance is pretty casual, similar to a fast-food spot--nothing fancy, but comfortable enough for a quick bite. This time, I decided to switch things up and tried the tuna melt and the gyro wrap. Both were surprisingly delicious and definitely worth ordering again. It's nice to know they do more than just burritos well!

    I ordered the fried chicken for lunch before going to work. It's four pieces with fries, onion rings, rolls, and a salad. The salad came first, and it was good sized. The hot items came later. This was a really good meal for the price. The only problem was the chicken was overcooked. The service was great. I liked all the photos of war planes, and the one hanging from the ceiling.

    Victory Diner is located off Main St and W Culver Ave in Orange within walking distance of CHOC - Orange and St. Joseph's Hospital. Looks like a WWII themed diner with a really cool model airplane hanging from the ceiling, model ship, and old warplane pictures on the upper sun room windows. They serve up a combo of American and mexican food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The diner's clean and the staff is friendly with smiles. You can order from a kiosk, at the counter, or drive-thru. They have a couple banks of soda fountains with Coke products and Pibb Xtra as well as a couple sets each of regular and decaf coffee. The breakfast burrito was good size and tasted good too. Didn't take very long for it to be made and was delivered right to my table. Looking at others food being delivered, the portion sizes seem to be on the medium to larger side, they don't skimp here. Lastly, my final observations, they still have covid glass still up between tables which I'm assuming are for germs and stuff, but they allowed a street vendor to go from table to table trying to sell stuff, putting her bag and merch on customers tables . Also, the staff seemed to know her since they were talking to her and allowed it. Just an observation during my visit, that's all. All in all, foods good, oh and it's very reasonable too!!

    You know it's a chill place with them letting us walk through the drive through

    Giving them a big shout out. We needed something open late after 2 AM. One of the few things you can find around and the menu that's crazy. You could order everything for breakfast to hotdog to burgers fries whatever your heart's feeling you can order. Guy took care of us even helped us customize our drinks. We thought the dining room was open, but it wasn't. So we walked around to the menu at the drive-through to look at it and he offered us to go ahead and walk on through instead of having to pull our car up. Grabbed a breakfast burrito with bacon. Loved it maybe this salsa would be my one down point. My friends picked up French toast, which they said was excellent and her hot dog for a good mix which they also enjoyed.

    Egg sandwich with sausage.

    Service was good, very busy place and crowded. It took a while for us to find a table. But the lady cleaning was super nice and as soon as she found a bigger table to accommodate me and my two kids. She asked us to sit down. I don't remember her name but very nice person. The breakfast burritos were big, my breakfast sandwich with sausage was OK. I thought they used patties, but it was sliced up links with lettuce and tomato and mayonnaise. Not bad. I would definitely try something else. Next time I go.

    Lettuce was wet & dripping all over. I've driven by this place for years. Thought I'd give it a try but I will NEVER go back

    Disgusting! Soaking wet lettuce & tasted gross. I will NEVER come back. I've driven by this place for years & thought I'd give it a try. Gross!!

    This is delicious!

    This is your basic independent Burger joint with a little bit more flair. They have all-day breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, Mexican food as well as dinner platters. The unique thing about victory diner is it is in an airplane motif. Lots of pictures on the wall from world war II of old bomber planes and fighter planes as well as various heroic aviation pilots of that generation. They also have a huge fighter plane dangling from the ceiling so that's cool. I went with the gyro platter, which was massive and good. They bring you out a side salad which is big enough for two people. Tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese croutons okay all good. Then comes the platter with fries, some onion rings and then a hearty and delicious gyro. The onion rings have definite potential. I think these had been sitting around so it had gotten a little soggy, but the crust was of the proper consistency. Good fries and delicious food. I will be back when I'm in the area.

    Came in to the filling station with my girlfriend and her meetup group for father's day breakfast…read more We arrived early knowing that we were expecting a group of 10 and seating is first come first served. We arrived at 8:30 for a planned 9AM breakfast. The hostess took our name and party size and then requested that we let her know when everyone arrived. She estimated 40 to 45 minutes. We were called a few minutes before 9 and seated. Great start Everyone ordered drinks and then the server came back and took meal orders. I went with my regular breakfast meal, French toast with scrambled eggs and bacon. My girlfriend chose a spin on eggs Benedict with beef. Food came out quickly and was served hot. Everything tasted good and fresh for me. I especially enjoyed their bacon, cooked perfectly to my liking and fantastic flavor. Bonus that they served me 3 pieces. The server was especially helpful by allowing us to come to the register when it was time to pay and after telling her our orders she was able to charge us each individually which is always very helpful with a large group. Parking is challenging, they do have a small lot behind the restaurant but even with a compact car the spaces were tight. There is some street parking if you luck out and find a space. There are also municipal lots around downtown orange and the traffic circle which offer additional spaces. We will definitely return. Loved the kitschy decor and old gas station feel.

    Great breakfast spot at the Orange circle. Weather was perfect to sit outside on the patio…read more Pancakes were good. Had some texture on the outside but still fluffy and buttery. Eggplant sandwich was also very good. Good bread and put together very well Great food ambiance and service

Staff were friendly. The restaurant was clean and the atmosphere pleasant. On my way to wash my hands, I got a glimpse into the kitchen. It looked clean and hopping with activity. The restroom was clean but looked like it needed updating. I ordered two scrambled eggs and two biscuits with gravy à la carte. The biscuits had an odd chewy texture. The gravy was just ok. I later confirmed with the waiter that they used frozen biscuits which may explain why they are chewy instead of light and fluffy. The eggs were good. Nice and scrambled. My wife got a Denver omelette with breakfast potatoes. She liked everything about her meal. My wife had coffee with her breakfast. At $4 a cup you would expect something special. It was average at best. We had to waive down a waiter to get a refill. As we were leaving, I noticed a sign outside stating that they have breakfast specials starting at $9.95 on Monday thru Friday until 11 am. I guess they need to give you a menu to get their specials. Our server did not share the specials with us. Service was a bit slow which was surprising since they were not that busy.

Both exterior and interior look like a 1930s train station. We sat in a booth and enjoyed great food and quintessential service. I ordered the Irish French Toast. This was in the top tier of French Toasts I've ever had. The thick, battered Texas Toast had a delicate interior with a bit of powdered sugar on top. The two large pieces were surrounded by banana slices. The syrup was a house-made Jameson Irish Whiskey Sauce. Incredible. I was in breakfast nirvana from the first bite. This dish came with a side of eggs and choice of meat (I went with scrambled eggs and bacon), both of which were excellent tho nothing fancy. I also swiped a beignet from my dining companion's plate.

He made us feel welcomed as it was our first time coming here. By we I mean my self and three friends as well. He took our orders mentally. That was impressive! And got every order correct.

I took some leftovers home. For what I paid for it, I think it was reasonably priced. We did come for breakfast. Around this time it's not overly packed and we came on memorial weekend. As we headed out close to noon, lunch hour is where people will begin to pour in. We saw trains pass by periodically but it wasn't bothersome. I can't wait to come back.
