“I came from northern Virginia 3 hours away to visit Norfolk and we stopped by penguins in my opinion the mango flavor with mango pieces was the best combination out of everything.I recommend this place to everyone in Norfolk either live or visit penguins and they are way better than the slurpee at 7-11 cause they don’t have the natural fruit like penguins does.“

“The Dairy Queen in the Ocean View area of Norfolk is a consistent and delightful spot for anyone craving classic American fast food and, of course, their iconic frozen treats. It's a reliable local favorite that delivers on its promise, making it a solid four-star destination.
First and foremost, the Blizzards are always on point. Whether you're a fan of the classic Oreo, a seasonal special, or a custom creation, they consistently blend them to perfection – thick enough to hold upside down, as promised! Their soft-serve cones are also a nostalgic delight, and the Dilly Bars never disappoint. When it comes to the frozen desserts, this DQ is a winner, providing that perfect cool-down on a warm Norfolk day.
Beyond the treats, their hot food menu is also surprisingly good for a fast-food joint. The burgers are consistently hot and satisfying, and the fries are usually crispy. It's a great option when you're looking for a quick and easy meal that isn't just about the ice cream.
The location in Ocean View is convenient and generally clean. While it's a standard fast-food setup, the staff is typically friendly and efficient, handling orders with a smile, even when things get busy. There's a pleasant, casual atmosphere that makes it easy to pop in for a quick bite or a sweet indulgence.
Why not five stars? Like many fast-food establishments, the dining area can sometimes feel a bit basic and could benefit from an occasional refresh to enhance the overall ambiance. While service is generally good, during peak summer hours or busy periods, there can be a bit of a wait, which is understandable but can be a minor inconvenience.
Overall, the Dairy Queen in Ocean View is a fantastic local spot for a consistently good fast-food meal and, more importantly, those beloved DQ treats. It's a reliable and pleasant experience that brightens up any day, earning its four stars as a go-to neighborhood favorite.“
