Prime Rib and Boxcars Testimonials
- Rosanne Cash, daughter of Johnny Cash, “In the 1970s, my dad loved to take the family to dine at Victoria Station and Tom Blake was often
there to ensure we were well fed and treated royally.”
- Bill Walsh, coach, San Francisco 49ers, three time Super Bowl champion, NFL Hall of Fame. “Victoria Station provided great atmosphere,
fine food, terrific service and beautiful people. There hasn’t been anything like it since they closed their doors. For a number of years, it was ‘the place to go.’”
- Lynn Swann, wide receiver, Pittsburgh Steelers, Hall of Fame, “The Wiseman Trophy was the most unique award I received in college. I was
able to bring family, friends and teammates to dinner. In Pittsburgh, you could find me with all of the wide receivers and tight ends every Thursday night at Victoria Station,
bonding over Prime Rib!”
- Lou Robin, Manager, Johnny Cash, 1972 – 2003, “I remember the years that I was on the road with Johnny Cash and his show. We always looked
forward to playing the cities where we could eat at a Victoria Station restaurant after the concert. The friendly atmosphere and great food really helped to make our days away
from home more enjoyable. And I have fond memories of taking my family to Victoria Station when my sons, Mike and Steve, were young.
- Perry Butler, owner and founder, Perry's, Union Street, San Francisco. San Francisco's favorite bar, celebrity hangout and restaurant for 35 years
and still going strong, "Victoria Station was a brilliant idea and it really worked."
