Lamb and langoustine bisque were both great. Wine is ISK1600 and beer ISK1050. Nice butter. Set menu (5300 for two courses) is a better deal than a la carte (ISK 6600-6800 total).

What's Good Here

The dishes here are high quality and a good accompaniment to the lagoon. If you book the premium package, you can get a reserved table and are welcome with a glass of sparkling wine .

Great food after having a swim . The langoustine soup was amazing and flavourful! The fish of the day was cooked well and had a good balance of flavours. For dessert , the Astarpungar was very good!

Alexa Jane Brooks

Get the cod and the lamb . Brio beer is light and delish. The restaurant architecture and view is breathtaking.

Philip Beasley

Stunning food in a stunning setting. Not far off Michelin-starred quality. I was blown away. It was amazing. The lamb was incredible.

Thiago Maia

Make sure you book I. The staff is nice and the food is great. Go for the soup , the Cod fish and the creme brûlée is amazing. So rich!!!

What's Good Here

You can't go wrong with the Fish of the day - fresh from the nearby harbor Grindavik with summer greens, barley, bacon and dates

Rachel Wang Pang

I really liked the food here, scallop is a must! Lamb was just ok, not the best, drinks are good! A good way to relax in between the spa

What's Good Here

Langoustine soup with garlic marinated langoustine dusted with white chocolate and seaweed . Excellent choice for a starter.

Chris Hansen

The lamb and beef were awesome. The views are pretty unique - make sure you book ahead to get a table.

Rachel K

Dine lunch in your bathrobe! The vegetarian two and three course meals are great. Super fresh salads and main courses.

Tyler Tanner

Was expecting a trap and got a good meal, bordering on gourmet. Be sure to get this in the online package beforehand. Soup and lamb were delicious. Pleasantly surprised.

Crystal Pang

You can mix and match the different set menus. You have to wear shoes and real clothes or the robes . You need a reservation too

Marion D

If you paid for the Blue Lagoon Experience package (80€) you can get one of these two three-course menu at the Lava restaurant.

Chrissy

Lovely restaurant with excellent food and service. Get the tasting menu , you will not regret it.

Allen Blue

Food is good, but it’s not fancy ! They’ll hustle your food out, but the bar gets backed up, so order your cocktails first!

Britta Lampeter

This was surprisingly good!! Highly recommend the Langoustine Soup and the Cod .

Wendy

Langoustine soup is the best. Cod is on the heavy side with the sauce. Lamb was good.

natalie kay

The beef was fabulous and the bread perfect.

Maggie MacG

The food here is truly decadent and you can eat in your robe . Skyr dessert was yummy.

Matt ????

Jen Schultz

Stephanie DeDecker

Rack of Lamb Chops with Celery Root and Bernaise

Soohuen Ham

Seafood soup is a must. Tried the seafood two-course-meal and every bite was blissful!

Ata Can Bertay

Lamb was amazing! Also don't miss the mussels .

Stephanie DeDecker

Great views of the Lagoon, a bit pricey , but best food around

Jason Boon

The 3-course dinner set, especially with the langoustine and bacalao starter, represents the best value

Charles Sant

Extremely expensive place. $15 for a toasted sandwich for a child. On the plus side, the cocktails look pretty and the bread basket really delivers .

Phil Nom

Try the succulent lamb main

Nik Skavinsky

Looking at this place you would not expect that it's as cheap as most other places in Iceland while the food quality and service are simply great.

Devon Peticolas

Portions are very small. The "peach and chocolate cake " dessert would be better named "slice of peach with chocolate mini-muffin".

Jamie Lee

Highly recommend the soup and the steak !

Carmen N

The prix fixe menu was worth it.

Kristen Henriksen

The chef 's tasting menu is totally worth it!

Chris Hansen

Lamb is awesome

Bora Demiralan

Very good quality food. Didn't make us think about the bill

Sojin Kim

Lunch buffet wasnt that impressive. Food was a bit dried out or cold, sushi wasnt particularly good either. Go to the snack bar before the restaurant . They even have a better view .

Atli Kristjánsson

Fish of the day! amazing, so fresh!

Frank Drebin

The food is quite expensive , so I expected a bit more than cod which is so dry that it's almost difficult to chew.

Lainie Green

View from our table the White and Red #Rioja surprisingly good

David Smith

I feel it is a bit over rated. We had better meals in Iceland

Sophia Kathleen

Beautiful restaurant !

Lauren Docktor

service wasn't great but the food was very good.

Jess Kono

overpriced but nice view and service

Anna Karen Sigurjónsdóttir

Mmmm the sushi is highly recommended!

Jesse Tao

Food is decent but service indeed takes forever. Took 30m just to get my coffee and check. Also the coffee is very acidic

Best view from the roof

James Kelly

The reindeer burger is awesome.

Jonathan Percy
