Victorio and Kimmy run a top notch barbershop. I have been a customer for over 5 years and they do an outstanding job. They only accept appointments and have an agreement with Russell’s BBQ to park in their adjacent parking lot. Prices are reasonable
★★★★★
Great cut and quick. Will chit chat if you want and be quiet if you want. Only $25 for a straight cut. … Call for an appointment before going.
★★★★★
Simply the best barbershop in the area. Victorio and Kimmy know their stuff, providing excellent customer service and the kind of cuts that come from experience and attention to detail. You won’t be disappointed.
★★★★★
… when he turned me to the mirror I was shocked, he was mostly done, and the cut looked great. Then he lathered up my neck and straight razored it. Damn it was good! I totally recommend trying Victorio’s. It’s like a blast from the past, in a very good way.
