Baka Baka is a cozy, stylish gem in the heart of Reykjavík that absolutely delivered one of our favorite meals of the trip. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with friendly staff and a menu that’s both creative and comforting.
We ordered the fried goat cheese salad and the Bianca mushroom pizza, and both were outstanding. The salad was beautifully plated and bursting with flavor. The warm, crispy goat cheese was rich and creamy inside, perfectly balanced by fresh greens, sweet apple slices, candied walnuts, and a light vinaigrette. Every bite had the ideal mix of texture—crunchy, creamy, crisp—and flavor—savory, sweet, and tangy.
The Bianca mushroom pizza was just as impressive. It came on a thin, golden crust that was crisp on the outside and chewy inside—clearly baked with care. Instead of a tomato base, the Bianca featured a delicate white sauce, melted mozzarella, and an earthy, generous layer of oyster mushrooms. It was rich but not heavy, with a wonderful balance of flavors that let each ingredient shine.
Baka Baka combines casual charm with truly elevated food. Everything felt thoughtful and well-executed. We left completely satisfied and will absolutely be returning on our next visit to Reykjavík.
