Great atmosphere, warm, stylish and welcoming bistro-style restaurant that takes influences from Scandinavian cuisine. For brunch I highly recommend the fresh catch of the day.

Philip

Amazing fresh food . Really nice atmosphere at this place. Check it out. Waiting-time by a gin tonic in the cellar bar .

Lau

Must order: Lamb prime. Tender and juicy with a perfectly caramelized crust. Big portion of fries . Can try d Bouillabaisse with fresh seafood and amazing broth. The Scallop in it was cooked perfectly

Faris Altorki

Go for the duck leg ????????

Rosaline

Servers will tell u that the local specialities are a must: lamb & salt cod . Lamb was melt in ur mouth delicious & cooked perfectly. Beef bourguignon was also solid on flavor tho meat was tougher.

Marie

Come here for Sunday brunch ! Everything was delicious. Omelette special was great as was the Eggs Benedict. Friendly staff , lovely atmosphere, and awesome cocktail selection .

Benjamin Palmer

came here for the best lamb chops in reykjavik and goddamn yes. bar downstairs is dope while you wait for your table, and if no lamb then catch of the day

Jökull Sólberg Auðunsson

Local favorite. Walk-ins after 18:30 so no need to book a table, but expect to wait at the bar . French brasserie style food with an old school nordic twist.

themanwiththeluggage

A positive surprise both in terms of food and wine - French cuisine - and atmosphere - very cozy . Try the Bouillabaisse as a starter and the Baccala as a main.

Brian Wells

Excellent place, just off the strip. Very cozy , and decent prices. The catch of the day was amazing. The beef bourguignon was over-cooked and tough. Stick with the seafood & you'll love it.

Sexy LF

The food here is so incredibly rich and filling. This is the salted cod which didn't leave me any room for dessert . The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating as well !

J Skyler Wagner

The ambience is familiar from a million other places I've had a nice meal - but for moderately upscale dining in Reykjavik the portions were incredible. Friendly , attentive staff , cozy spot .

Michael Dare

Amazing everything. The Duck salad was definitely the winner, but the brioche French toast and pulled pork sandwich were also very nice.

Rachel Lam

If you're open to seafood and have no idea what to eat for lunch , the catch of the day is a great choice. Value for money and really tasty.

Jun W

Lamb chop is amazing. Fresh, tender, perfect seasoning. Icelandic lamb is really tasty. The expresso martini is outstanding too.

Federico García Arias

The food at this place is absolutely amazing. Whetever you order, it'll be amazing! The price is not expensive for the deal. Great service, even when full.

Ralle I

This was our breakfast place. Nice ambience, reasonable price and sparkling wine ;) on one occasion they pretty much ran out of everything

Emily Creek

Seriously the BEST deal and meal I've had in my two months here! Super beautiful space. Wonderful flavors. Great staff . ????

Yoonie S

The charcuterie board is terrific as is the cod dish! I’ve been here on many occasions and love it!

Bjarni Janusson

Nice interior design and great atmosphere, good service at the bar while waiting to be seated and delicious food being served. Overall a very nice and worthwhile experience.

Kevin Dulin

The mussels were fantastic! The French onion soup was also delightful!

Jun W

Beautiful bistro with lots of plants inside the restaurant , food is tasty too. A great place to chill during afternoon.

Jon Yang

What a lovely French cafe . Had the best French onion soup I've ever had. The smoked salmon was also delicious.

Stephanie

Beautiful light, small but ample bar . Make reservations if you're coming for dinner during busy times. Try some oysters , it's worth the money.

shinodogg

Atmosphere was perfect around 4pm. not busy, calm , and relaxed. Satisfied with taste, volume, and price(everything is pretty expensive in Iceland so here is moderate I feel).

Thiago Maia

Snap was great. We had the Cod and it was fantastic. Onion soup with cheese toast is good but a bit too much for me. Also they don't have wife in the restaurant . T

Jennifer Krinke

French type of bistro with local twist. Staff very friendly . Portions are large and food is rich so you may want to split apps and entrees.

Einar Gústafsson

One of my favourite places for easy dining with a great atmosphere. Fun French bistro style with good prices and good food.

Bob N

Had the garlic prawns to start, then the salmon with a wonderful brown sauce . The ambience and the service were great! I at at the bar .

Steffen Lyngbaek

Moules frites and duck confit were good, as well as the house red wine . Cool bar downstairs to grab a drink while you wait for a table

Lainie Green

Has the #porkbelly open face sandwich omg so never would have thought of hazelnuts work go well but was amazing and reasonable.

Anita Mathew

Amazing halibut special! And French onion soup was yum! Fun vibe and cool bar downstairs . Beware though, not much for our vegetarian friend .

Derek Flanzraich

Delicious food. They serve bunch until 4– don’t miss the blueberry pancakes !

Nathalie Bosshard

The rib eye steak is one of the best i've ever had- who thought id have to come to iceland to find the steak of my life?

Daniel Mejia

The catch of the day (halibut ) was amazing and the service was great!!

Karl Hallbjörnsson

Incredible food. Voted best restaurant in Reykjavik for multiple years. Atmosphere and the interior design also very pleasant.

Rachel Wang Pang

The duck salad was very very flavorful, recommend to try this :-) and all of their seafood is just fresh and tender

cynthia wang

The bouillabaisse was excellent. A bit spendy, but super fresh and delicious.

Andrea Assier

One of the best brunch places around. Reminds me of a little french cafè.good food and cosy atmosphere . Service is friendly

ᴡ mcgee

make a reservation . no reservation ? don't want to wait 1.5hr? ask them to seat you at the bar . that's what we did!

Súsanna Gestsdóttir

Best fish in town . Catch of the day served at lunchtime never disappoints

Ashley B

This lively spot seems super popular, has a gin and tonic menu to go with yummy French-inspired cuisine.

Josh Mateo

Snag a reservation if you can beforehand. Very limited walk-in tables available. Cozy atmosphere and there's a bar downstairs!

Kate Furman

Bougie Icelandic dining with authentic fare. Get the fish of the day

Here's a peek at the amazing menu. Just ask the waitress for a recommendation though. Mine was VERY honest.
