BRÚT Restaurant

We had an amazing meal. Caviar was absolutely delicious and paired so well with the buttered baby potatoes and sour cream. The sea snails seem deceptively simple but was so well cooked and flavourful. The skate fish was exceptional - super fresh and perfectly cooked that the flesh just slid off the bones. Artic char was amazing as well and the use of nuts in fish dishes is unusual but definitely very clever. A place that I'd definitely return to.

Had a lovely dining experience at brùt, the food was I loved my Arctic char and My dining companion and I fought over the bread! She enjoyed her escargot and I thoroughly disliked the mushy crab appetizer thing. Pretty much every seat has a wonderful view looking out at the Great historic buildings outside.

I really enjoyed the food! Unfortunately, they didn't have the vegan caviar, which I was eager to try. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, and while the prices are high, I guess it comes with their quality and Michelin recommendation. Ann, the sommelier, was excellent. I had the broccoli dish, and it was perfect, while my husband loved his seafood. I would definitely return if I ever go back to Iceland. 💕

Had a lovely Christmas dinner here. Food was a set menu, nothing was particularly special or ‘wow’, but all was nice and very pleasant. I’m sure their regular menu is fantastic.

I dined here and really enjoyed the seafood forward menu. I wasn’t wowed by every dish I got, but I was pleased with every dish. What stood out to me was the fresh seafood and awesome service! Their wine list is extensive (but expensive). The cocktails are delicious!

Brussel sprouts, Icelandic sea snails and cod fillet (fresh cod not salted) are delicious. Good service, sympathetic vibe. We would come back for sure.

Had higher expectations as this is in the Michelin guide. The lunch menu is quite limited in choices. We had the catch of the day and skate fish. Both were beautifully presented but the fishes and fries were too salty. This might explain the unfinished food at another table too. The restaurant was quiet during lunch and we were seated at a nice area next to the windows. We have tried other restaurants in Iceland that served food more suited to our palates. For those keen to visit, suggest to go during dinner time for a (hopefully) larger menu selection.

What a fantastic lunch! My husband and I ordered faux gras, rock crab, scallops, bok choy, sea snails, apple pie, and a couple of non-alcoholic drinks. The meal was also served with complimentary bread and butter (delicious). Everything was wonderful and tasty. The sea snails were so good that we ordered seconds. BRÚT may be our new favorite restaurant in Iceland, and we’ve tried quiet a variety of places (including most of the Michelin starred or recommended establishments). Certainly can’t wait to return in the future.
