Suggestions for Authentic places near Reykjavik

Roberto V. • November 4, 2013This place is a must! The lobster soup is delicious and the place really gives you the feeling that you can't get more authentic ;-)

Heather P. • July 18, 2016Pricey, but great place to get authentic Icelandic sweaters. They even sell knit kits in the back!

Arno R. • October 15, 2014Really liked this place and its authentic vibe. Food and service were good when I was there. I especially enjoyed the menu, which has almost all of my favorite foods. Would go again in a heartbeat.

Guðrún Ingibjörg Þ. • November 17, 2015Absolutely amazing French food with an old-timey, authentic feel to both the food and place itself. Highly recommend.

Hinaet • February 6, 2019Highly recommend this place, is not too authentic but the ingredients are still totally Icelandic, great for foreigners who like to try local food but not too extreme (like fermented whale)

Peter D. • July 30, 2013Great place for whale watching. Just be sure to avoid restaurants that serve whale in town - it's not an authentic local dish, just recently adopted to cater to tourists.
