About The Viking

The Viking is a charming restaurant that brings back memories of the past. They offer a variety of treats, including rootbeer floats, which are a favorite among regulars. The service is friendly, and the staff is energetic and clearly enjoys their work, creating a fun atmosphere. The ice cream options are plentiful, and the portions are beyond generous. For example, the ice cream piled on cones is massive, so it's advisable to eat quickly before it topples. Customers often recommend getting the small size, as it will be more than enough. However, the prices can be steep, with a cheeseburger and small shake costing $15. Despite the nostalgia factor, some may find the value not quite worth the cost. The outdoor tables are perfect for enjoying treats, and the location is convenient with available parking. Although some visitors wish the restaurant stayed open later, a trip to Ventura for a nice view of the lake and an outstanding experience at The Viking is highly recommended, especially for families with kids.
