Fresher than fresh delishious langoustines. Do go for the 3-course menu! Kindest service in addition. Big hat off, tumbs up!

We stopped in during a road trip during extremely bad weather, they were very welcoming, and served us an absolutely delicious meal. It's a relatively limited menu, but if you're here you should be getting the soup and the main course of langostines, there's no...reason to order anything else. We didn't do dessert (it looked lovely) as we had already eaten too much for lunch, but they looked excellent and homemade as well.More

Very good!!!! Beautiful location, huge portions, a little pricey, but worth it for an occasional splurge. Service was great, one server for the dining room but he kept up and we never felt like we waited long.

The food at this restaurant was delicious and tasty. A just for seafood lovers. They offer individual dishes, or the 3 course meal, which provides highlights of the langoustine soup, followed by the yummiest langoustines in they own individual pan for your table, in hot...butter, salt and garlic. Plenty of accompaniments including bread, dip and two salads. Dessert was a choice of three, I had the carrot cake but there was also a unique meringue, caramel creation that would also have been delicious. The restaurant is on the coast, and adjacent the beach, can eat inside or outside if the weather permits, and jump up for a beautiful sea view. Not cheap, but worth it for one splurge meal in Iceland.More

If you are near this are do NOT miss visiting this restaurant. They are well-known for their langoustine soup, which is absolutely magical!! They have incredible cakes too for dessert. We would never miss an opportunity to dine here, and there is a great view...of the shoreline too! One criticism: My husband asked for a beer recommendation and the waiter told him he didn't know because he didn't drink beer. Staff should still be able to provide descriptions of items (like beer or anything else on the menu) to guests even if they do not partake themselves.More

I've never been to a restaurant before that didn't clean the black vein in the tail which contains the feces (poop). It took a lot of effort to clean the lobster and eat it with my fingers because the lobster meat was stuck to the...shell. I found it weird that other guests weren't bothered about this and ate the poop, unknowingly?More

Had my birthday dinner here on a busy Sunday night so I was glad we had a reservation. Service was fast and the lobsters were broiled in butter and brought to the table hot. Meringue cake for dessert was terrific and the coffee was good,...too. They even had decaf that was not instant.More

What a waste of money I have been hear before many years ago, then the service was fine and the food. The loobster was not cleaned and the waiter said that it is suppose to be like this. The black waste still inside the lobster....When I am paying to go to a restaurant I expect that the food is cleaned. That I am paying them to do it. The waiter took my wine away even though I was not finished, both the glas and the container. What an experience. It was my birthday, will not recommend this place to anyone.More

Visited the restaurant last weekend with a group (adults/kids) and must say it was really disappointing. Used to come here quite often but not worth the visit this time around. Over priced, below average service and quality of the food overall bad.

The soup was delicious at this cute restaurant right on a beach. Service was great also but people should know the menu is very small. It consisted of the soup, a lamb dish, a vegetarian dish, a small kids menu, and langoustines. I had seen...people refer to these as lobster but they are actually shellfish the size of shrimp that you need to peel with your fingers before eating. They were tasty when you got them out of the shell but weren’t exactly what my family was expecting.More

Worth the extra driving distance and the slightly higher price to enjoy delicious lobster soup and langoustine cooked in garlic butter. Portion sizes are incredibly generous. The lobster soup has a tremendous depth of flavour from the stock used. The 3-course option is a good...choice to enjoy the best of both worlds, the soup and the langoustines. Strangely the restaurant was empty when we had our lunch but it was set for some later reservations. The emptiness did not detract from the attentive service and delicious food.More

You have not eaten fresh seafood like this yet. The name magic soup was exactly that. The 3 course meal is all you want and so near the sea brings an atmosphere unparalleled to many. Go with family or business meal needs. What a treat!!!
