The dining scene in Reykjavík has diversified a great deal in the past few years: traditional Icelandic restaurants now face competition from restaurants serving Asian, Italian, Mexican, Indian, and vegetarian fare. A recent trend has seen the emergence of several upscale establishments emphasizing locally grown ingredients and new Nordic cuisine.
Atop the Saga Hotel near the university campus, this quiet, cozy restaurant has a spectacular view of the capital and surrounding hinterlands. For ISK 11,900 (or less) you can try a four- or seven-course feast of the chef's choosing. Menu highlights include fresh seafood and seasonal mains featuring lamb (fall), beef (summer), and reindeer (Christmas).
