The Vikings Boiling Seafood — Restaurant in Enterprise

One of the absolute worst Boiling seafood experiences I have ever had!!!! We took our family here and it was a HUGE disappointment! The food is terribly over priced and not fresh at all. The stuck all of the different kinds of seafood in the same bag and boiled it all to death. Everything was WAY over cooked to the point the shrimp turned to mush as we tried to peal them. The baby octopus was rubber and my grandma said it was like bubble gum. The clams were all dead and the shells looked like they were stepped on before they were cooked as all of them were broken. They didn’t even bother to was the seafood! There was sand in everything. We ordered two pounds of crab and we got six legs! No body, no claws, just six legs. We got the Viking style flavor which was what they recommended. The flavor was very pour and tasted like black pepper, cayenne and water. They have a button on the table to call the server back but still took forever to get help. Seemed like the had one server on duty and about 15 people standing around. The price says per pound but we got charged by the half pound so the the bill was actually twice the price we thought it would be. We told three different people that our food was terrible and they didn’t care one bit. Didn’t even offer to give us a discount even though our entire order had sand in it. They place was in total disarray and there were only FOUR tables in the entire place full. My whole family was extremely disappointed which is a total shame as my grandparents love seafood. Even they said they would never return. Our bill was over $200 and we got two little bags of boiled garbage, 12 wings and two beers. This is absolutely the worst seafood experience my family and myself have ever had. Not to mention the fact that we all had stomach problems after eating here and spent a good portion of the night on the toilet. If they spent half the money on training and decent quality food that they did on design this place might be edible. As it stands now we will never go back and will tell EVERYONE about the horror this place is!

AVOID AT...

I found out about this place from a nail client of mine. He smelled so strongly that I asked if he had just come from an Italian restaurant. Then he told me about Viking, so I decided to go. When I walked in, it smelled incredible! Now, I eat seafood boils all the time. This is the first place I’ve come across that doesn’t cook their garlic. Raw garlic is why the spice level is upped a notch. It feels like wasabi through the nostrils. Not a fan at all. So whatever heat/spice level you usually order, just know it will be doubled because of the uncooked garlic they throw in your bag after they put your sauce in. Honestly, I don’t think Vikings should even be associated with seafood boils. Straight raw garlic in your sauce is barbaric! So I guess the theme fits. My crab legs were overcooked, my worst nightmare. I also ordered a side of rice along with my 1/2 lb crab legs and sausages. The skin on the sausage was super tough, for what reason? Perhaps because Vikings cooked it? And the rice was overcooked (sigh). I was so underwhelmed by everything that I decided to order sweet potato fries because surely, what could go wrong? Ha! They brought ketchup to accompany the fries. Okay, so I asked for some spicy mayo sriracha sauce. Nope. So I decided to make my own sauce. At least they had mayo so I could. My waitress was ok, when she grabbed my payment for the tab, of course I left a decent tip (for what, I don’t even know) , she didn’t even ask if I needed change and I never saw her again after that! Haha, like ma’am you just know you’re the best waitress or what?? The decor is grandiose and I would say "intimate". The furniture is so gigantic that I felt like Alice in Wonderland. Neither good nor bad, just meh. It feels like a group of rich friends got together in Las Vegas and said “let’s cash in on seafood boils!”. Not going back. Not going anywhere Vikings are cooking seafood. Vikings should stick to their traditional vegetables, cereals and...

Most people don't think of a landlocked state when they think of a place to get good seafood and this restaurant proves why. How does one begin to describe a place that has an "all you can eat" menu where basically everything is an additional charge or limited to one per person? Maybe a good way to describe it would be: "Another gimmicky restaurant lost in the sea of other failed Las Vegas nonsense". The thing is, I wanted to like this place. The decor was pretty fun, the service was great, and the idea seemed fantastic for any seafood lover like myself... The food however, was a bad joke. For two people, we paid over $120 for seafood that I'm not even sure was cooked all the way through and one tiny bottle of Soju. The menu itself was disappointing by the sheer lack of diversity and imagination. I am still shocked by the fact that I spent so much money at a place which boasts about being "all you can eat" and yet I still left hungry and disappointed. One of the menu items which only allowed one per person, was the blue crab and it was so tiny and devoid of meat that I'm surprised it's even on their menu. The headless shrimp (which comes at an additional charge) were rubbery and the clams we ordered were somehow barely lukewarm. Believe it or not, the biggest middle finger this overpriced gimmick gave me that evening was the "ice cream" which was served with a brittle, microscopic, plastic spoon and was handed to me in the same single serve cups you would find in a public school cafeteria. If you've made it this far in my long-winded review, please take this piece of advice and go to Red Lobster... At least you won't leave hungry even if you leave...
