Victory Chicken House

Delicious Filipino food. Tastes like what my grandma used to make. Best so far in Jersey City.

The lady at the cash register gives wrong change and they cheat on their customers especially the turon to order. Be aware.

Good food but nothing special. 3 stars for not pretending to be something they’re not.

They make THE best crispy pata!!!

I showed up again the next thursday, a rainy one at that for late lunch, and finally managed to find their other location somewhere in newark avenue, after being led by a kind, black woman from the journal square stop of the PATH train. it still confounds me why people i talk to on their phone won’t know exactly the street names that lead to their location — they would offer to give me landmarks that i won’t bother to remember. just give me the name of the nearby streets & i’ll manage to help myself get in the place soon… it’s the correct way of reading mental maps, isn’t it?
in any case, the buffet is great & worth the trip all the way from my place in Staten Island! i enjoyed dinuguan (w/​blood curdles from either pork or chicken — foreigners should taste this just for the sake of doing so, OK? & they’ll get some kind of a lasting, unique impression on Philippine cuisine, especially during Halloween), adobo (which you may have read about from the New York Times), beef steak (Philippine style, fried soy sauce marinated beef cutlets), chicken cutlets (flour dipped, sauted), pinakbet (done Tagalog style, i.e., sauted with a different shrimp paste added to it), sauted vegetables with coconut milk, their version of the japanese sushi, among many others, including food u normally have during breakfast, as well as salad stuff… there u go… most available Philippine dishes come sauted, which is a hallmark of Asian cuisine that’s largely dominated by the numerous Chinese anywhere in Asia, except in India LOL but u ought to find about salads that I seldom, seldom find here in the US and done using Philippine food ingredients… and actually, sauteing is an art by itself — u taste the result right away if done expertly & confidently by the chef… I’ll be back some time, when i think it’s not gonna be crowded again (which means, I’ll be back most probably on a weekday, again).

Great chicken!

really good! better than MAX’s :)
