Höfnin Restaurant

A must when in Iceland !!! A beautiful restaurant by the marina. Delicious fresh food, amazing service, really nice staff and hats off to the chef. We had the fish and chips, open beef steak sandwiches and the ice cream. I’m not a licorice fan but you have to try it, such a unique & delicate taste. We are going back for dinner before returning back home.

Loved this place so much went back again the next evening for dinner to try the Icelandic tasting menu. Every course was delicious-the lamb especially was the best! The owner explained each dish with real passion. It’s a small family run business and the quality of the food is excellent. Each bite was so flavourful! It’s located right next to the harbour so you have a good view of the ships. The bathroom is really clean and modern as well. The first evening we sat outside as it was ful inside but we had blankets provided and a heater above. A bit on the pricey side is the only downside but it is Iceland and everything is expensive there! Would definitely go back if I was there again!

Loved this place. From the first moment it was spot in. Very conveniently situated close to the harbor. The whole area is lovely. The staff was nice and attentive. There have plenty of choice but I think you can never go wrong with the catch of the day. The fish we had was delicious, nice balanced combination of flavours, well-paired with a cool glass of wine. For a dessert, I'd definitely recommend the one made from skyr, fruits and sorbet. So yummy, light and perfect ending to this great evening.

Great spot right on the water with views of the harbor. Loved the cod and the fish stew with the little rye butter sandwiches, but the artic char was a little fishy. The service was excellent and overall we loved the experience. it was great spot for a dinner after a long day in the city.

Everyone was very polite, helpful and accommodating. I brought in my family of 12 at dinner time and they tried their absolute best to make sure we got seats as soon as they were available! We were also super happy with the food ( get the grilled prawn you have to) and the prices were very reasonable.

The welcome is really great, the staff is lovely, the food is very tasty, fresh and generous. The ice cream is to die for and the chocolate cake is excellent. Thank you again for this delicious moment.

The mussels were okay. However, they had quite a bit of sand, which suggests they weren’t cleaned thoroughly. The fries seemed a bit too few as a side dish. The Arctic char was good – I liked it. The skyr was excellent. Enjoy! We also found a small pearl inside one of the mussels.

Vibes were perfect on a rainy day for lunch! Had the best fish stew (despite it not looking like a stew, and our waiter advised me not to worry, it was going to be delicious and he was 100% right). Great views of the water and great service!
