The 20 Best Restaurants in Reykjavík, Iceland | Eater
"Prior to opening the more formal Brút, owners Ragnar Eiríksson and Ólafur Örn Ólafsson launched this hip wine bar in a minimalist basement space on Reykjavík’s main drag. The wines are mostly natural or from small producers, and there are always about a dozen open bottles offered by the glass, though the lineup changes constantly. To pair with all that wine, pick from a selection of small plates and charcuterie." - Nicholas Gill
You can always rely on Tíu Sopar. Deep list of pure quality wines, great food menu and a fantastic staff that knows their stuff. If you are in doubt, ask Steinarr at the bar and get the perfect lecture for wines.

A gem of a little wine bar in the centre of Reykjavik. Very local - small menu with absolutely delicious food. Great barman and excellent wine selection. Server was so friendly and had a great sense of humour. All round fabulous experience. 10/10

Went right around 3pm when they opened on a Saturday. Tried two wines here while my partner had a beer and we played crib. LOVED the venue and atmosphere. We didn’t eat here but everything that came out of the kitchen smelt AMAZING.
Would recommend!!

Fantastic wine bar with a local vibe. Extensive selection of wines by the glass with helpful recommendations from the staff. Food is really well-done as well. We had the sourdough bread and the 18 month Tindur cheese, and they were both great.
