Viking Burger - Hamburger restaurant in Newport News - 11745 Jefferson Ave #8, USA

Saw this place on Google & popped in after an appointment nearby. I was the only patron at the time (the weird hour between lunch & dinner). I asked some questions about the menu & the staff pleasantly explained things to me. I went with the single patty Viking burger & cheese tots. My food came out much quicker than I expected (great since I hadn't eaten since the evening before). It was fresh and definitely NOT your fast food joint burger. Tots were crispy, hot, & fresh. I may have to stop here again before I leave the area. (& I'm 30 miles away, so that's a testimony right there.)

Found this place online when googling best burgers in town. In town this week I had to give it a shot. This place holds up to the reviews and is very much hidden. The person working the cashier was super friendly and personable. I looked past all the options, which are plenty, and decided to go with their Viking Burger. I usually am a plain cheeseburger guy but had to try their namesake burg. It was insanely good. The double burger was cooked to perfection. The Viking sauce I think they call it was perfect topper. I feared it would soggy the bun but I was very much wrong after they toast the buns. The Viking burger is a must try.

Burrito says this place pillaged my digestive track the next day. The fact that it’s next to a head shop should tell you almost everything you need to know. Dumpling was overwhelmed by the large menu with a lot going on. The tots and onion rings were loaded the grease like the oil wasn’t hot enough during cooking, and they were not drained properly coming out of the fryer. They also were not fried hard enough to have a really crispy outside, which is our preference. The owner was nice and very enthusiastic. If it became more of a build you own burger with choices from different categories, and he limited the premade stuffed burgers to three with a few sandwiches, it would probably all present better. It also needs some help on the execution. Especially with the fried foods, as discussed. For essentially $20 a person for a combo, we expected more or at least better execution. Their unexpectedly very clean bathroom got them the 2nd star.

Delicious. Go for the Valhallas. Worth it. Also, spice level is actually great for the spicy burgers. When they say it's hot, it's actually hot which doesn't happen much in restaurants. We will definitely be back.

Incredibly delicious and made to order! Kelly was very friendly, and we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience! I highly recommend the cheesesteak fries!

Best burger I have had in a while! Everything was super fresh, and the food was delicious! The fries are freshcut in house. If you are familiar with Thrasher's fries on the boardwalks in Delaware, you need to try these! All the taste, none of the seagulls attacking you. 😂

Kelly was awesome and helped us navigate the menu with ease. We got Cheese Steak Fries and Torcs and it was a WORK OF ART! Our tatted up friends sure know how to make a tasty burger. Kelly kept our ice cold drinks topped off with a smile as we enjoyed our food. So glad we got out and visited an old favorite even if the location changed its still that legendary Viking Burger. Put on your horned helmets and sail over. You won't regret eating at this local treasure.

Decent burger. Nothing special, especially considering the price. Plain burger and onion rings almost $20?! For that you can get a handmade patty (i.e., better burger) and a side elsewhere, like Craft 60 up the road.
