Our Happy Clients!
The food was phenomenal – we enjoyed both the seafood pasta and the blue ling (white fish) dishes. I was blown away by the “potato foam” and how good the broccoli to pair was.

My wife and I ate here twice. Both meals were excellent. We had the prawns with pasta and the Cod.
Both were rich and delicious. Service was great. It is pricy as are most Icelandic restaurants.

Absolutely fantastic food! We had dinner here two nights in a row and the food was excellent – both main courses and desserts! I highly recommend getting speciality cocktails with Icelandic liquors. Stuff is friendly and helpful too!
