This restaurant is super amazing with taste, service and its price. It is more affordable than others (I walked 4-5 restaurants to see their menu) with a high rating on Google. I ordered fish stew (plokkfiskur) for 4,300isk since it has a really high reputation and it was so good. The sauce in orange was really tasty, and the cod with smashed potatoes is fantastic. As an Asian I expect it has more rice, but it is actually make me very full with other carbohydrates (given that I have a bigger appetite than normal people😆). The bread is out of my expectation as well, never taste a bread like this. I wish to come back and try the lamb or catch of the day which both I wanna try but eating alone can't order too much. Also really appreciate the staff who work yesterday (5 June) they are really helpful and nice to me and other guests. Being sensitive to their needs and very kindly help with water spilling incident caused by other guest. Highly recommend this restaurant.

My go-to spot in the heart of the city! I eat here regularly and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh and delicious — my favorite is the baked fish with sweet potatoes, salad, and a flavorful leek sauce. It’s a healthy, satisfying meal that’s full of taste. The outdoor seating is perfect for people-watching, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and a relaxed vibe.

It was a wonderful decision to try this cozy little place for dinner. The staff were friendly and helpful. I have zero regrets on trying their lamb shank. They had a lovely selection of beers as well. It was a busy Easter weekend, and I had no problem getting a table without a reservation.

Nice ambience, busy little restaurant. The steamed fish was excellent, the pizza was tasty but too oily. Food was prepared fast. Service is okay. Expensive, but this is the norm in this area.

We had lunch at this restaurant in Reykjavik because we wanted to have a taste of the local food. Here we got to do that at the average price in Iceland, which is on the expensive side. Over all, not a bad place to eat.

We really enjoyed our dinner here. The service was very prompt, and accurate. The workers were all very nice. Outdoor dining was great as well.

I got the smoked salmon on sourdough and it was delicious. The salmon tasted fresh and the bread was both crunchy and soft. My coffee was made well, and I loved the decor and atmosphere. The service was also friendly and food/drinks were brought out quickly.

Very fresh, authentic, and tasty. Vegan/ vegetarian is also awesome. Would definitely come back again. Order catch of the day. They are daily fresh catch fish. "Icelandic Rhubarb cake" is MUST dessert( warm). DONT MISS IT.
