Traditional Icelandic fare is on offer should be tasted. Thoroughly deserving of 5 Tripadvisor dots!

The menu is limited and the food was good and inventive. I had the cod (which was slightly over salty but delicious) and while the chutney was an odd pairing I kept them apart and it was fine. My husband had the burger and when he went to tell them how he wanted it done was told we don 't do that in Iceland. The chef makes it how he thinks it should be. This worked out for my husband because he likes a rare burger but if I had ordered that I would not have been able to eat it. Most of the reviews say how nice the staff is. While they were not unfriendly, we were the only people in the restaurant for quite a bit of time when we first arrived and there was no attempt to speak with us or see how things were going. Not sure how they can handle it when they are full. One final note and this did not effect my rating but I feel compelled to share it the music is atrocious. I don 't mind different styles of music but this was the worst of a rat packy mix anyone could come up with. Overall, I would recommend.

Dette er et av de aller beste restaurantbesøkene jeg har vært på. Maten var nydelig, lokalet var fantastisk og de hadde en flott service. Denne restauranten har en av de aller beste dessertene jeg noen gang har smakt. Jeg bestillte en karamellmousse og den var alldeles nydelig. Restauranten er plassert på et gammelt hotell hvor mange av bordene er plassert på det som før var soverom. Vi fikk sitte i fred og ro på et koselig gammeldags rom mens vi nøt maten vår. Anbefaler på det sterkeste! Absolutely amazing! This is one of the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food was lovely, the venue was fantastic and they had great service. This restaurant has one of the best desserts I have ever tasted. I ordered a caramel mousse and it was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is located in an old hotel where many of the tables are located in what used to be bedrooms. We were able to sit in peace and quiet in a cozy old-fashioned room while we enjoyed our food. I strongly recomend this place! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We just had the best food of Iceland!! This restaurant was recommended to us by the owners of Skalatjorn Homestay. And boy, were they right. I had a delicious carpaccio, rack of lamb (prime quality meat, cooked to perfection) and ice cream. My husband had lobster soup, beef filet and salted caramel mousse. All equally terrific. Making a reservation is a good idea.

Some had ordered the cooking menu Walfangr, beef tenderloin and chocolate mousse as well as the pairing of wines. We also had the horse meat-catchers, salmon, the other fish and lamb ducks. The whale was surprisingly good. Everything was very delicious. The staff was excellent.

Nice ambience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Omnivore had the salmon court and was enthusiastic about it. I had the vegetable growers and they suggested. Also the vegan dessert coconut cake with grilled pineapple and sorbet. It was amazing!

The presentation of the food and the cute interior and the anaesthetics of the restaurant have also added our enjoyment of the meal. My husband and I both had the lobster soup (which is poured in front of you from a teapot) that is a must. Then we had different entrees and desserts. Both were amazing and we enjoyed them alike. If you stay in our drive through this city, this restaurant is a must!

I had the small plates of whale and horse and my husband got the burger (which I finished). Delicious food and amazing cocktails. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was amazing. Highly recommend!

The ambience is pleasant and family like the restaurant feels like a large house with a plot decoration. We had a delicious lunch with nuts which were tender in a delicious sauce. Lunch had a fried crispy chicken salad, delicious hamburgers and cattle pliers. The chicken pieces were cooked and very crispy. Dessert had fermented blue berries with a delicious custard. The coconut and pineapple cake was well made, even a bit crisp. A delicious meal. Our guests were enchanted with the chicken salad, which was quite delicious, like the grilled sweet corn, which fits very well to the dish. Our waiter was a pilot, a patient and a professional. Per tip our food took a while to prepare.
