Decided to try this place after seeing all the reviews. Ordered individual dishes after thinking the set menus would be too much. Decided to try the entree minake whale - my husband thgt it had too much of a fishy taste but I really enjoyed it because of the way it was done and the accompaniments. Had the pork belly... More

This restaurant was so good! We had the grill feast I believe - 8 or 9 courses of beautifully presented Icelandic cuisine. Have to be a bit adventuresome - there was some whale, and I think they sometimes include puffin, although they had run out when I was there. We just ordered glasses of wine, which come in a little... More

The service is good as other reviews. What surprise us the most is the dessert. It is good looking and taste better! We ordered the second dessert right after we try the first one.

We first went to the Seafood Grill (Monday night) the place was packed and there was a 45 minute wait. Rather than waiting, because we were all so hungry, we decided to make reservations for the following night. When we arrived on Tuesday the staff was very friendly and remembered us from the night before and sat us immediately. They... More
