The current soup is not GF (and they were out of soup today). I shared a fish pan with my partner and though I was assured that it could be made GF and the dish was announced as GF when it was brought out by the server I definitely had a reaction. It was delicious but I would hesitate to go back.

Amazing! No gf menu but knew what items were gluten free. I got the lobster bisque and the arctic char. Highly recommend. They were both sweet

Went to this restaurant as part of a food tour and the staff made sure that the items served to us did not contain gluten and confirmed that the food was at low risk of cross-contamination. The food all tasted great and is well worth a visit.

Tried this place on our first night in Iceland. Nothing on the menus is marked GF, and our waitress seemed somewhat knowledgeable. Decided to give it a try solely on this app.

I tried the Arctic Char with Honey Almonds and Butter (because everyone on this app swore by it lol) and I was not disappointed. The portions are indeed a good size. It comes with 3 pieces of fish, a couple of cherry tomatoes and mini roasted potatoes. I have celiac and did not get sick!

GO GO GO! This place was soooo delicious that we went back a second time. The food is SAFE(sensitive celiac here), a big portion(they serve every dish in the pan it’s cooked in, which is fun and makes me feel extra safe about the gluten-free aspect), and it was one of the most reasonably priced places we could find. 1000% recommend the arctic char. I was skeptical at first since I’m not the biggest seafood person(I’m trying to be), but I LOVED it!!! Also had a cod dish, lobster & scallop soup, and dessert(white chocolate crepe brûlée with pistachio ice cream & fresh fruit). DELICIOUS!

Arctic char was amazing, thank you to the people here who recommended it! The fish pans can easily be changed, my bf got his without wine, so feel free to remove things you don't like. Really tasty, reasonable price, super fast and no reaction!

The staff assured us that most of their fish dishes can be made gf. We had the Arctic char and it was the best dish we had on our 12 day trip to Iceland. You need to try the arctic char!

Few gluten free options but they can adapt some fish dishes. We took artíc char (that is gluten free). No gluten free bread, beer nor dessert. We recommend it as it was delicious.

Amazing! I have Celiacs and several dishes were naturally gluten free and they said they could make any of the fish dishes gluten free. I had the Arctic Char and my son had the salmon. They were both so good. The flavors they put together in each dish were wonderful. My husband can eat anything and he had the Wolffish which he loved.
