Every year around the beginning of July, we make a BEST OF REYKJAVÍK ISSUE celebrating some
of what makes Reykjavík-life worthwhile, posting some good entries into a hopefully neverending
discussion. The primary purpose of BEST OF REYKJAVÍK is celebration! It’s about big-upping stuff,
giving mad props to it and patting it on the shoulder. The following are some nice tips we culled
from BEST OF REYKJAVÍK 2012, which you can find in full at www.grapevine.is
We think Fiskifélagið, or The Fish Com-
pany, is serving the best seafood these
days. “They are consistently good,” our
food critic argued. “The food is excep-
tionally good, the dimly lit basement
is cosy and romantic, and the service
is excellent.” We recommend the prix
fixe menu, though be aware that you
will probably have trouble walking out
of the restaurant. It’s a lot of food. And
really good food. Really, this could
have easily made “Best fancy meal” or
“Best goddamn restaurant.”

Hvíta Perlan won this category the last
two years in a row. Hvíta Perlan is now
closed, but Úrilla Górillan has opened
in its place and in many ways it’s just
like Hvíta Perlan so it’s not surprising
that it takes best place to watch sports
over a beer this year. It’s a restaurant
and sports bar with constant stream-
ing of live sports. People who like to
watch sports over a beer tell us that
it’s simply the best. “They have a huge
screen, and they have lots of them, and
it’s really comfortable, and you get a
seat with your very own personal tap at
your table, so you don’t have to get up
to order!” someone who doesn’t even
watch sports excitedly told us.
