Best places: Icelandic restaurants in Reykjavik, Iceland

😐 I wish this place had been better. Nice, if occasionally slow service, but the food was surprisingly a big miss. Presentation was beautiful and portion sizes were generous, but the flavors were heavy handed and dishes overly rich. My coffee cured salmon starter missed an acid component and was dripp...

Pint-sized, local cafe offering an array of hearty Icelandic comfort dishes in a cheerful setting.

Laid-back, family-run eatery offering traditional dishes from locally sourced produce.

👍 Incredible seafood tacos (appetizer) here! We came her on a Food Tour stop and had to come back for dinner! Incredible bread and butter service, tacos were amazing and perfect steak. Service was really slow though, despite our waitress checking on other tables and hanging out by the front door quite...

👍 In a historical old building, Fish Company welcomes you with a cozy homey atmosphere..almost like dining in a friend’s home. The service was good and the tasting menu interesting. While some of the dishes were good, others not so much. The dishes albeit creative and interesting, they were inconsiste...

Relaxed grill & wine bar featuring small plates, burgers & hearty traditional mains.

👍👍 SUPER impressed with the surprise 6 course meal. One after another we were surprised by the food that was revealed in front of us. The flakiest cod I have ever eaten, delicious fresh dishes. Expensive, but worth it. A highlight of our trip to Iceland. Service was great too - friendly from the star...

😠 We have visited today and I left disappointed. I had a veggie soup in bread and it was far from tasteful. What was more disappointing, the waiters didn't really care. There were 3 people serving 2 tables and none of them come to ask if everything is OK. Not even after starring at each other, they d...

👍👍 We had a new year Eve dinner here which is memorable experience. The peach perfect cocktail is a must try and the starter plate is definitely a surprise. We can feel the owner and the chef's love to Iceland and the ingredients they are using. The restaurant is delivering a special atmosphere of acc...

Weekend bottomless brunch, a tasting menu & cocktails offered in an upscale destination.

👍👍 Gorgeous little place overlooking the harbour. We had the adventure menu which was fantastic and would highly recommend! Great range of festive and standard drinks. Incredible service from all the staff.

👍👍 This is a lovely restaurant situated in Reykjavik's harbor area. It's quite a casual restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere and positive vibes. 😊 The menu is quite extensive ... with many good choices. 😋😋 I really like their food that is tasty and nicely presented and I've enjoyed some great mea...

👍👍 Hotel restaurants often settle for traditional plates that offend no one and represent the same global cuisine. This is a restaurant that has much higher ambitions. We were a company of 8 people and we tried many different dishes. They were all different and all delicious with unique ideas. As a res...

👍 Friendly staff and good food. The food was ready within 10 minutes. The fish of the day was spot on 👌 and the grilled lamb was OK. Good house wine and nice ambience.

Cozy place with cathedral views serving traditional fare including fish, meat soup & rye bread.

Straightforward eatery fixing up a variety of meat, veggie & seafood soups, plus fried fish.

👍👍 Overall, really great! The restaurant is really cosy and atmospheric and the servers were really welcoming and attentive. The food was amazing and service was really quick. I thought the food was reasonably priced too, however if you are ordering alcohol it can be a little on the pricey side. I woul...

Middle Eastern tapas pair with cocktails & wine in a compact, trendy restaurant with a bar.

👍👍 Amazing! Here you can try exotic plates such as whale sashimi, puffin and shark. Really nice atmosphere and staff. Worth a visit :)
