You wouldn't go wrong with lobster soup ! Try also one of the fish kebabs , from char, salmon to cod , oh and everything is fresh here! The potato salad is also a perfect side dish to the meal.

Tyler Tanner

It lives up to the food blogger hype. This is definitely a place you want to hit up while visiting here. The soup is really good, but don't miss the kebabs and, for the adventurous, minke whale

Magga Tonner

Amazing lobster soup and fish skewers in Reykjavík! We had cod , but you can choose between 10 different types of fish and other seafood . Nice spot at the haven! You can sit inside and outside.

Marie

I can’t stop thinking about the lobster soup . Delicious, comforting, and full of flavor. The bread is also incredible! Order up a bowl, grab a Gull beer , & enjoy this quaint authentic seafood shack.

Emily H

Delicious fresh seafood skewers with good flavor (though I recommend getting some of the sauces for the extra 100KR). If you get the potato one, definitely get the creamy garlic sauce !

Sad Matzoh

Had a very tasty Icelandic sampler platter of mashed fish , smoked trout , fermented shark, smoked lamb , and dried fish . Delicious, and had a schnapps of birsk to complement it!

Fiorella Coto Zevallos

Food was good, area is lovely (in the port ). It is by far the least touristic restaurant in the area. Great lobster soup . U can choose the sea food your want to be grilled. Quite interesting options

Order your fish RAW! They will ask you several times if this is what you want. And then bring you the freshest caught of Arctic Char awesomeness. You will end up with a huge plate of sushimi!

Lefteris P

Nice food and the guys there very friendly ;) take a lobster soup !! The must !

Emmanuel Jefferson

This is the place to go for Lobster Soup . They also have whale meat sampler if you're a bit adventurous but still save room for the soup and grill fish

Lillian Prz

Delicious lobster soup and fresh fish skewers . Salmon is delicious! Be prepared to wait 30 min to get your food. Tiny place with small seating area. Not good for big groups.

Jesse Tao

Lobster is Icelandic for langoustine so its really a langoustine bisque soup . Still very good. Be ready to ask for more bread . And try the fresh fish on sticks

Tom

Staff is very friendly but service is very slow. Delicious grilled seafood , very fresh. The lobster soup is a must try.

Tugce Esener

Lobster soup ! Go for lunch and dont mind the long line . Yhe service is fast and definately worth it!

Ben Engen

The history of this place is really cool and you can try such local delicacies as pickled shark and whale steaks . ...if you're brave.

Wendy

Lobster soup is a must get here. Cod skewer was a little dry. Love that they have other skewer options though. Cozy space .

P

Try the lobster soup - perfect for a cold day. They served it nice and warm with freshly baked bread , too.

Kailey L.

Came here because of its fame but it was not "the best lobster soup in the world", sadly. Soup was thin and tasted mostly of fish and vegetables . We had a better lobster soup in Höfn, Iceland .

nina

Get some salty lobster soup and enjoy the cute , old-timey atmosphere.

Berat YARDIMCI

Lobster Soup is delicious and also the Cod/Bacalao. It was listed as a caption in New York Times. It is a temporary wooden shack in nice atmosphere of the Reykjavik Harbour .

Stacey Yuen

Scallops are delicious! Share the minke whale if just tasting. Reasonably priced seafood and helpful staff . Order first, then pull up a seat!

Sarah Roche

Lobster soup is definitely worth the wait. Bread was delicious, too. I don't think it's a place that would work for large groups, but then what European restaurant does?

Grace S.

Lobster soup ! Not too creamy and lobster is perfectly poached.

Aaron G

Authentic and super fresh fish skewers ! Also, the place is much bigger than what it seems in the photos.

Mary Quite Contrary

Lobster bisque is a must. Their fish skewers are tasty and tender. If you're feeling adventurous, try the whale steak ... It's gamey.

Andy

lobster soup is bomb - huge chunks of buttery soft lobster ; lobster soup & scallop skewer combo for 2500kr

min

This tiny, hole-in-the-wall seafood place serves thick lobster soup with huge chunks of lobster and nice creamy broth.

Harris Schaer

Extremely affordable fish meals of up to 10 different varieties. Preparation is pretty standard and there are many sides, but it's a great choice!

Roberto Valenti

This place is a must! The lobster soup is delicious and the place really gives you the feeling that you can't get more authentic ;-)

Hanna Johansson

We recommend the grilled scallops and shrimps on a stick. I could eat that everyday!

Lau

Amazingly rich lobster soup , worth the value. Personally wouldn't recommend the skewers , my cod ones was too dry and bland, it's a bit charred too.

Oleksii Antonenko

Lobster soup , wolffish and shrimps are amazing. The prices are lower than usual in Iceland .

Ricardo Batista

Good lobster soup , have a go at the trout on the right and whale meat on the left.

Bunnykins

Soup was thin and tasted like celery . Actual pieces of lobster were nice (but few). I had much better lobster soup from a food truck in skaftafell. Basic fish at reasonable prices, a bit overhyped.

Thomas Hansen

Fresh & High Quality Street Food in a small and cosy place . Excellent Lobster Soup . Authentic !

Jack Liu

Good lobster soup , fish on the stick is very fresh. Make sure to get a reservation if you have a large party, also service can be pretty slow

E W

The fishsoup at the neighbour on the opposite of the street is better than the lobster soup here! Try it. Reykjavik fish restaurant .

Michael Warkentin

The lobster soup was incredible! Don't forget to sign the guest book !

Taylor

Lobster soup . Grilled char. Enjoy. And read about the history of this place.

Marius Watz

Excellent fresh fish on the docks, cozy and unassuming. The lobster soup , really.

Mona Wu

White fish , shrimp and scallop kebabs are all delicious. Lobster soup is a must! Very reasonably priced.

David Helgason

The lobster soup is world class good and the minke whale (as well as horse and fish ) served on sticks is just over the top — and illegal in many countries . Cosy, quaint ... and plastic cutlery only.

Nejat Brohi Md.

Only Japanese can beat them, either taste or pricez, and girls there is no rival against them in the whole world.

Naura

Fresh seafood , great staff , cozy atmosphere

Rayna O'Neil

The lobster soup is a must! It truly is outstanding.
