Natalya: Best seafood restaurant in town. Reservations required. The lobster soup, salmon and monkfish are to die for! Extra wine for the wait was a nice touch. Great service.
Tanh Tanh: Must try Volcano Langoustine Maki, Icelandic Mussels & Lobster Soup
L. Q.: Sashimi on the rocks and the back death cocktail are a must try! Also, the langoustine main course and the lobster mountain maki are awesome.

Taci O.S.: The creamy shellfish soup is the best I've ever tried! Start with that soup and the scallops. Do yourself a favor and order the lamb dish and try not to lick the plate afterwards.
Hanna Johansson: We had the lobster soup and the cod with mashed potatoes. It was the best cod I've ever had. So delicious I highly recommend it. Great service as well. And the place has a really nice vibe.
Ashley: Highly recommend! The cod, shellfish soup, brownie and rhubarb cake were all amazing.

Like A Local Guide: It's a good place for a steak, a lobster, a lamb, the whale, or anything really. The chefs truly cook with passion and are good at it. It doesn't come cheap though and booking ahead is recommended! Read more.
Qian Yang: Next time visit Reykjavik I definitely will come back to this restaurant. Cozy, excellent service and best lobster never had tasted before.
super pup: Gorgeous resto. Inconsistent food execution but the winners (baby lamb, skyr ice cream, king crab) were phenomenal! We went 2x in a week! Avoid lumpy tempura starters and 90's chocolate desserts.

Glory Kadigan: Great food. Icelandic tapas were excellent. Lobster tails - yummmm
Serkan Görür: Try the Icelandic Feast tapas set. For the food that you cannot eat elsewhere prices are OK. Portions are adequate. Don't miss the lobster baked with garlic. As for beer try Viking Classic.
Chloe Teh: The icelandic gourmet fest really open my eyes , from puffy fish , lobster to the lamb that melt in your mouth. .. superrr...
