It was our first time visiting the Viking Chili Bowl in Valpo. We called ahead for a table since we were a party of 6. Glad we did. Even though the place was packed, we had excellent, friendly service. I was impressed that our food arrived as soon as it did. The food was good. My husband absolutely loved the ham. Portions are big. My granddaughter barely got through a half on one of her pancakes. I had the fish sandwich with Onion rings. Sandwich was standard. I really enjoyed the rings. My husband and I ordered the chili to go for dinner. I have to say, I was disappointed. The only negative. The chili looked very processed. Like it came straight from a can. It was an unappealing brown color and it didn't taste good. Guess I had a sort of expectation from the restaurant's name. Again, everything else was pleasant and enjoyable outside of the Chili. We look forward to returning some time.

Told server I wanted my hashbrowns crispy and not like mashed potatoes. She said it was getting busy and may not get them the way I want them and I said that I won't eat them that way. It came out mashed and little browned. Didn't eat them. When she came out with check, told her they were more mashed. She said I should have swapped them out. Seriously? I asked why I would do that cause they were too busy to do it the way I wanted. If it weren't for us out to eatbwith our grand daughter, I would have gotten up and left when I heard that. If they can't do it as customer wants, why go there? I won't again with that laid excuse
