Lots of meat. This is a high end steakhouse. Personally one of our favourites when craving a high quality steak and red wine.
Book your seats in advance. Especially on weekends.

This place is a great experience. The "Champaigne Train" is great to hang around in before, when waiting to be seated or after your meal. The cocktails are great and the atmosphere is very unique. The food is quite special. High End. Highly recommended.

If you want a good burger I'd recommend Sæta Svínið, It's a pricey burger at 3690kr but it's a damn tasty burger. It has some other great foods and great cocktails. Happy hour is 3pm-6pm, but it's not the cheapest place for a pint.

If you catch a rare sunny day, the back of The English pub is the place to be. You can get seats outside, and from 4pm-7pm you can grab a pint for 850kr and enjoy people watching.

Brauð & co is the place to get bread. Everything here tastes yummy. The Bread is the best in town and so are the cinnamon buns. You have to try to some of the buns, or all of the buns. Cinnamon, Vanilla, Blueberry & Liquorice (this one's also a must), sometimes the raspberry.
It's hard to miss this place as there's usually queues outside and it's an extremely colourful building.

Ban Thai is the best Thai restaurant in Reykjavík in our opinion. You need to be aware of two things though -
1. You might need to wait for over an hour for your food
2. the food here is some of the spiciest I've had.
The cost isn't too high, but due to the spiciness of the food we've often end up multiplying the price with the cost of beers.

Who doesn't like dumplings? Dragon Dim Sum is the perfect place for take away or sitdown meal (if you can get a seat, it doesn't do bookings). It's a cute place located on Bergstaðastræti that has a selection of delicious dumplings and even has its own beer - Drunken Monkey.
