I staggered into this restaurant accidentally and was too hungry and tired to look for another place. It's very upscale, decorated in a spare, cold Scandinavian style. I wasn't dressed very nicely, but they didn't seem to mind (maybe because only 2 other people were in the restaurant at the time -- in the tourist season, it may be more crowded, and you may want to make reservations). It's also very expensive, so I had only a main course -- no drinks, no appetizers, not even coffee -- and that alone cost me about $40. My food was delicious -- I ordered the famous Icelandic lamb with a wild berry sauce, and it was the best lamb I've ever had. But it wasn't worth $40. Still, everything in Iceland is expensive, and my meal the next night wasn't that much cheaper, even though it was significantly less formal.
