Once Again , Great dining experience. Just when you think the Viking's dining experience has reached the limit of great expectations with theirv great food; Chef Jun and staff went above and beyond to deliver new culinary surprises that was so unbelievable My husband and...I were totally mesmerized by the presentation of tenderized beef, steak, ham and a numerous array of barbecue ribs and meat favorites from an impressive decorated Mediterranean meat and vegetarian buffet . The amazing vegetarian creations by Chef Jun left me jaw dropped as he introduced us to colorful soups, pouched eggs/ green string , tofu/mushrooms seasoned in a mango sauce that was nothing short of amazing flavors guaranteed to please. His watermelon salad peppered in blue cheese , veggies and other trademark Chef Jun ingredients was overall 5 star *****. all the way. Thank you Management, Chef Jun and staff!!!More

We recently had dinner at the Viking restaurant in Bacolod. The food was absolutely Delicious. Everything tasted like it was freshly cooked. That’s not usually the case at a buffet. The best buffet I’ve ever been to. The staff was the real reason I’m writing...this review. We were treated like royalty. Everyone wanted to make sure that we were happy and that all our needs were met. Even Chef Jun came by our table to ensure that we were enjoying our meal. The biggest surprise was that as I was admiring the desserts (which I can’t eat) Chef and Manager Anton came to me and asked how I liked the restaurant. I explained that I could only admire the desserts. He informed me that he as well couldn’t have sugar. This is when he did something that blew my mind. He proceeded to go into the kitchen and make me a sugar free dessert using his own personal ingredients!!! I have never been to a place that took care of their guests so well. I will never forget this visit. Thank you sincerely, Clyde RiddleMore

We will always recommend Vikings Bacolod for ambience and family friendly international buffet. The food ranges from Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Singaporean, Eurasian and many more. There are a lot of interesting food for you to try on and honestly on our nth times visiting this...place we can't finish trying all the tasty menus all at once. Our children love the sweets and dessert corner. Yes the combination of healthy fruit juices are the best in one of their corners. The appetizers and chicken salads prepared for us was great. We recommend you to try their salmon and sushis, excellent! The Filipino soups you must try. Oh! we can't say no to the Nachos corner. We kept on returning to meat corner and the lamb meat was tasty plus that roast beef dipped into the BBQ sauce was really delicious. Last but not least there's beer. We were assisted by a very accommodating staffs from the reception to waiters namely Chef Jun Jun Severino, he was there to ensure if we are enjoying our stay and meals. The servers Mr Noel and Mr Jhonrey were ready to help us and when we asked for some information about the dish that seemed new to us like the ingredients they are quick to respond our queries.Great job team Vikings! Long live in the food industry. Our experience for 14persons (10adults with 4 children) cost us only 7000php ++. Worth the international cuisine experience in Bacolod City! Thank you. I wish that your tradition of Vikings dance and singing near the celebrant lives on and please have some wine for us next time 🙏🥳🤩🤩👏👏👏👏More

Upon entering Vikings restaurant, my spouse and I were greeted with infectious smiles and warm personalities. I am a strict vegetarian, my spouse is not although she does enjoy the wonderful hummus choices they offer. Chef Jun and his staff always make it special effort...to prepare additional food since I don't eat meat of any kind. My spouse brags about the fantastic taste of the food They prepared a vegetarian omelet along with a superb dish of tofu with noodles, brown sauce, mushroom and vegetables; prepared especially by Chef Jun. Overall the buffet has many great food choices of beef, liver, chicken and a very impressive seafood and salad bar. Located in the SM north mall, you can start your day with a good morning brunch or dinner later. I give the entire Viking staff and Chef Jun & staff 5 stars all the way.!!!!!!! You can make reservations online to ensure a table ahead of time which I highly recommend.More
