Restaurants cuisine du monde Reykjavik & Area

If you're spending a few hours on the island of Viðey and you're feeling a little hungry, this café will be more than welcome! It's easy to spot, as it's one of only two buildings on the island. It's located just a few minutes from the boat dock, perfect for a break before setting off again. Inside, you can enjoy a bite to eat or a hot drink to keep your strength up, with a lovely terrace to take advantage of on sunny days. Please note that opening times can vary, so be sure to bring something to eat if you need to.

In the capital, you'll find both excellent fish restaurants and succulent addresses for meat lovers. For the latter, The Steak House is sure to please! This restaurant is dedicated to meat, with a variety of high-quality Icelandic recipes and made-to-measure service, all in an intimate setting near Reykjavik harbor. Some dishes include fish, for those who prefer it.

From the moment you enter, you feel transported to another world. Subdued lighting, background music, the journey continues into the large dining room, decorated with plants and a (fake) cherry tree right in the middle of the room. On the menu, a myriad of small and large dishes to savor: cauliflower or langoustine fritters, beef or salmon tartare, burger-style tacos... You can feel the creative sensibility of the chefs, and the desire for a cuisine that combines inspirations. For a normal appetite, a taco won't be enough, so opt for a dessert as well.

Located in the city centre, this gourmet restaurant will seduce you if you are looking for a good table in the capital. Here, carefully prepared dishes are served, in beautiful proportions and inspired by Italian cuisine, but not only! Try the tagliatelle with truffles (a delight), one of the most popular dishes in the house, and it is easy to see why. You can also choose from pizzas (including a vegan pizza), salads, gourmet desserts and cocktails with or without alcohol.

The Viking village has two restaurants. The best-known of these is undoubtedly Fjörugarðurinn, which can accommodate up to 350 guests. The restaurant is a sort of large, cheerful tavern in a reconstructed Viking setting, complete with folk music. The waiters are dressed as barbarian warriors with armor. Brennivin (local schnapps) is served in sheep's horns. It's an unusual experience, but may seem too touristy for some, so it's up to you!
