FlakiMarch 6, 2018This honey-glazed, crispy and flavorful Arctic Char swimming in a juicy tomato posse is something I'll surely remember for years to come. Simply astounding! 💕

Petersons KarlisJuly 2, 2017If you're at Reykjavik, you should come to this place. I'm really impressed, the best fish I've eaten in my life. I'd come back if I would be in Iceland in the future! Amazing atmosphere!Upvoted Feb 26
Raphael RaueSeptember 10, 2016One of the best fish dishes I ever had in my life. I had arctic char in almond honey pan and it was food for Nordic gods.
Sebastian ReddemannJune 3, 2018We were here twice, as it is just a fantastic place (especially for lunch, where you pay 50%)! We had a couple of dishes, go for the fish pans! If you need to choose: the Arctic char is delicious!
Girish KumarMarch 9, 2018It’s amazing seafood here in a hot pan 🥘. The lunch menu is almost the same as dinner but 50% cheaper. Definitely worth trying the ‘Arctic Char’ it has almonds + honey 🍯
Frank RimalovskiAugust 14, 2017Best meal I've had in a long time. Arctic Char with almonds and honey is beyond, but everyone at the table was oohing and ahhing no matter what they ordered.
Uygur ÖMarch 3, 2018Come here and try the cured salmon and house fish soup. If you don’t like it simply go to subway next time as your taste buds might be frozen. 🤓 Plokkfiskur is also well worth a try. 👍🏻👍🏿
Jay SSeptember 11, 2017Favorite meal in Reykjavik. Fish skillet for 2100 Kr during lunch is great value in an expensive city. I preferred the Arctic char over the salmon.
- David JurakAugust 5, 2020Amazing fish pans especially during the lunch hours for significantly less than in the evening.The arctic char was superb and the starters were also very delicious. Highly recommended.
- Stephanie GonzálezOctober 9, 2016Delicious and balanced meal at a really good price! My favorite meal in Reykjavik! Plaise (fish) with cherry tomatoes, capers, potatoes and greens. Yummy!!! Boullabaise was delicious too!
Quint SluisAugust 2, 2020Artic cod was amazing and the fish burger was nice and moist just the way it should be. Would recommend a visit if you are looking for a not to expensive dinner.
Michelle Teefey-LeeMarch 11, 2017Beautifully cooked Plaice and deliciously flavoured, cute and cosy decor - I highly recommend a visit. Averagely priced for Iceland
- Nuno JobJune 4, 2018Had the Plokkfiskur and the lobster salad. This place is amazing and the best deal you can get for lunch. Heavily recommended, outstanding food
- Nicholas M.September 4, 2017Fantastic fish skillets. Salmon entree and arctic char entree were fantastic. Smoke salmon starter. Make reservation way in advance!
AJ MarinoJanuary 24, 2018Fish pans were amazing! Everything is fresh and I liked the cozy nautical setting, right in the heart of downtown
Ben EngenOctober 30, 2022Note that I don't enjoy fish, but I don't normally seek it out. But this place... holy cow, I could eat here every night. The preparation on the fish is amazing.

- Leemor YuravlivkerAugust 25, 2018Arctic char is as very good though service was slow. Skip the appetizers. Go for lunch where menu is 50% off
jenny beneventoMarch 6, 2020If you like salmon, get the Arctic char. Perfectly prepared, beautiful presentation.
