Saskia H. • September 5, 2019I tried the lamb soup and my boyfriend the shellfish. Both nice Icelandic dishes with great service plus free desserts

Franziska • January 26, 2020The tasting menu is fantastic. Such a nice Icelandic culinary experience!

Tania Y. • January 24, 2017Place to try Icelandic food and beer, they have a little bit of everything on the menu. Good service and cozy atmosphere

Jordan K. • March 17, 2013Absolutely amazing food: open-face sandwiches and daily hot food specials. They also serve Akvavit shots that locals typically enjoy with a beer.

Lars V. • February 15, 2012Can especially recommend the Arctic Charr. Great service and overall impression. Will be back

Andrew R. • June 23, 2016Really good tasting menu and best wine pairings Ive had in Iceland (although still not amazing). Bit on the expensive side but definitely worth it

Gunnar H. • October 22, 2012Locally grown meat, straight from our farmers. The Icelandic Lamb is out of this world, you can taste the blueberries and arctic thyme that they eat during their outdoor life in the wilderness.

Like A Local Guide • November 1, 2013The food is great and the location by the seaside offers scenic views, especially during sunset. After a good meal, you can have a romantic walk on the nearby beach. PS! Try the fish soup!

Hermann G. • July 9, 2014Danish "smörrebröd" and a cold beer in the middle of Reykjavik botanic garden. Sit outside if the weather allows.

Dude • May 14, 2018Food and atmosphere – all great. But as you can imagine it’s a tourist trap so the prices are over the roof.

Andrea A. • February 6, 2015Trendy place but very good food. Amazing views over the old harbour. Try the daim cheesecake for dessert

Josh W. • April 18, 2016Plenty of breakfast options from American, European and traditional Icelandic.

themanwiththeluggage • March 12, 2015Nice hotel in the city centre close to the main pubs and bars. Nice rooms.

Bram d. • September 18, 2017Perfect for groups, tables require better lighting though. Venue architecture is great, especially the stairs.

Bjarni J. • April 11, 2017The interior design is very nice and the atmosphere as well, in which their piano plays an important role. They also serve very good food - and the red wine is especially good!

Conor P. • August 11, 2016Surprisingly good for vegans (a regular pumpkin burger option on the lunch menu, and a Vegan special that changes each day). Great view of the city, and very relaxed.

Hörður L. • October 2, 2014Ask for todays special! And their "home made" snaps is a must!

Paulina R. • September 6, 2017I liked the onion soup, the menu is varied there is to make reservation Good option ✌🏻️

May P. • December 16, 2013Mixed seafood gratin is so delish!!

Eva B. • January 9, 2020They just offer three different dishes. I had the traditional lamb stew in a bread bowl. It was delicious and warmed me up after a long walk. The refill was free, and they offer free water as well.

A RabbitHearted Girl • April 30, 2014Warm apple pie is awesome. Pastry just melts in your mouth.

Debbie D. • August 17, 2014The lamb soup was perfect for a chilly afternoon. Great place to have a conversation over a meal and be heard.

Wouter v. • October 18, 2011Great lamb chops and delicious icelandic desert: skyr
