Reykjavík

Forréttabarinn, located near the Old Harbor, is a trendy spot known for its focus on starters, or small plates. It's young and trendy, and not overrun with tourists. Artic char is recommended by pretty much every guest. Add langoustine soup and skyr mousse to that for a very traditional and superb dinner.

Tapas Barinn offers traditional Spanish tapas together with 'Icelandic'-style tapas, in a warm setting in the city centre.

Fiskmarkaðurinn is housed in one of the oldest buildings in Reykjavík's city centre. Head Chef Hrefna Rósa Sætran of the Icelandic National Culinary team has designed a menu using the freshest fish and meat of the season, cooking it simply in modern style. Guests can watch each dish being prepared in the open kitchen, which has the country’s only robata grill, or sit at the raw bar where the chefs create exotic dishes.

Sushi Social offers a unique fusion of Japanese sushi and South American grill combined with the freshness of Icelandic ingredients. The menu is created to fully capture and draw from those influences and offers a wide array of great selections, exciting small courses, new style sushi and even an amazing steak platter — perfect for two.
