Had a fantastic gf meal (ordered the gf pasta with mushrooms, ham and Alfredo sauce). We have been traveling for 17 days and it was top 2 meal of my trip!

I had a delicious gf lentil soup it was perfect for the end of a cold and rainy day. The staff was helpful, and the food was labeled.

It was very busy and there were only about 6 tables. Ordered a large milkshake to share and two burgers with fries. Our food was delivered, and our milkshake was forgotten. I went up to the counter, and the man asked what we had again. I said large chocolate, but when it he made it, he made a small. The table next to us said this is the large. I didn't feel like going back up there as my food was getting cold. The gluten free bun was good. It was good, just disappointing.

Very good cuisine😁, the dishes are neat and the taste is really there. The waitresses are kind to explain to us based on a dietary restriction. Quite expensive for a dish with 6 potatoes. The menu is quite short in choice and that's good because the fewer there are, the better the dish. The desserts all look delicious but very few are gluten-free.

Chantal Real

Gluten-free options.

Kareen Karina

Lovely, home-feel atmosphere with set vegetarian set lunches. A local place with hardly any tourists, which gives an authentic ambiance. Some gluten-free cakes and meal options. Small and cozy. But pricey... like anything in Iceland

LJ Jensen

Beautiful pastries & good coffee in a peaceful setting. This is the carrot cake. Worries about leaving with the entire case of gf delights.

Berthold Manns

Very tasty. Pleasantly spicy chili sin carne. All dishes are very filling. Many dishes also gluten-free. Nice atmosphere and very friendly service.

Himalayan Spice is cozy and inviting with some of the best food and best service I've had in town. As a local, it's expensive to eat out so we when we do, we pick places where we know the food is fresh and delicious and where we will be well taken care of. That's why my group of friends all chose Himalayan Spice to have a dinner to kick off the holiday season. The momo (house made dumplings) are always popular as a starter or a main course. This time I had chicken tika curry and it was as warm and rich as I had hoped it would be -- perfect for a wintry night! We have a friend who is extremely sensitive to gluten and one nice thing is that she never has to worry when eating here -- you can let your server know about any food allergies or intolerances and they will take good care of you. Highly recommend -- note there is an upstairs with good space to make big tables so larger groups are no problem. Be sure to book in advance!

Laura Koolen

Good food and good service. We had a normal pizza and gluten free pizza and they were both very tasty. Recommended!

SO GOOD. The Lobster Soup is a MUST TRY in Iceland. It’s celiac friendly and lactose free. Good chunks of tender, melt in your mouth lobster. I will be dreaming of this soup for the rest of my life. My mom had the shrimp skewer with sweet chili dip & potatoes which were also 10/10.

David Nolan

This pizzeria alone would make us stay another night in Egilsstaðir. Properly outstanding pizza and my girlfriend got the gluten free base and tastes just like a regular base, which is very hard come by. Forgot to take pictures but there wasn’t even crumbs left on my plate!! Only suggestion I’d have is some extra choice in sides but can’t take stars away for that.

kryssie davis

The chef was very accommodating and told me that almost everything on the menu could be made GF. I ordered the steak it was great and cooked to perfection. They cook my steak on a separate area and made sure to change gloves. The person taking my order wasn't sure about GF options but immediately went to ask the chef.

Claudia Tramonte

We entered cold and tired, we left reinvigorated and extremely full. As a gluten-free option we could take the scampi and cream soup (good) and all the main dishes, i.e. the fish pans, absolutely great: generous portions and WOW flavours. Informal but refined environment Precise and kind service Costs in line with the city

Service was great! Food was even better! As a celiac they were aware of myneeds and the menu clearly labeled. I was able to get a 3 course gf meal here. Very good choice.

Jess Hackelberg

I am a symptomatic celiac and they were able to make potatoes in lieu of fries and served one of the best burgers I've had in a long time on a GF bun. My husband had a normal reindeer burger and said it was delicious! I would eat here again knowing I was well cared for the first time!

Yuliya N

We loved our food and experience here! The vibe was very relaxed but felt upscale. Delicious dishes and great gluten free options.

Adriana DV

Great juices, but not suitable sandwiches for gluten free intolerants and coeliacs ! They couldnt grill the bread with paper that would secure no cross contamination, as I did experienced in Denmark.

Sara Bodin

Very friendly and welcoming staff, and we were seated and served our pizza very quickly. The pizza was delicious and they even had gluten-free dough!

kryssie davis

very eclectic place. the gf brownie wasn't bad and the coffee was good.

The best restaurant meal I’ve had in Iceland and mostly gluten free. Takk fyrir!!!

Jenelle Isaacson Etzel

I felt like the menu was created just for me! Gluten free, potato free, good spice, loads of veggies and creative menu that didn’t default to potatoes- this last detail is actually the most magical- everywhere we went it was a challenge to find veggies that were not potato. Fantastic flavors and super satisfying- wish we could have brought this restaurant home!

Elyssa

Lamb roast was amazing. Service was able to modify every course to be gluten free and all were delicious. Lemonades were also very refreshing . Highly recommend for anyone with celiac looking for a nice dinner in Reykjavik!

R S

We had a wonderful dinner here! They were incredibly accommodating to my gluten allergy concerns and my husband's nut allergy. with the manager coming to our table to discuss. Dinner was also very reasonable by Reykjavik standards. We split three small plates, had two glasses of the house wine, and were completely satisfied. We had the lobster tails baked in butter and garlic, the article char, and the beef tenderloin with mushrooms. All were great, but the lobster was outstanding. I would definitely recommend!!

Brian Klimes

Amazing lunch and great service. Made sure I was safe for my gluten-free needs. Also , amazing GF chocolate cake!!!!

Had some of the best fries in Iceland and a great gluten free pizza. The pizza is large enough for two to share and have some left over. Very nice outside seating area and larger portions than typical in Iceland.

Mickaël Loiseau

After the road, just such a little break. The yellow house attracts my curiosity, the place and the service are impeccable, the owners are super nice and helped me to eat gluten-free and a little extra because they know how to speak a little French. Even the pastries are gluten free or vegan. P8The dishes are delicious😋, we can only give five stars to congratulate such an establishment! A very pleasant place, very comfortable, not noisy! They have a large interior on 2 floors and a beautiful terrace! Stop for a break 😁😁

Pizzas are not worth the money. We had both normal and gluten-free based pizzas. Spice Girls had potential, but the base just didn't taste at all. Also the extra fee for gluten-free base is a rip-off, probably a basic frozen base. I don't like to say it, but you might be happier just grabbing a hot dog with all toppings.

Aaron Avery

Wonderful service! Fresh local food with some gluten free options.

Brittany Weyrick

This was such a fun find with great pizza! I’m celiac and did not have any issues with the gluten free pizza. The lady was super cautious in telling me that they do share an oven but they have separate pans and such, this is fine for me but be cautious if you’re sensitive to that. They were able to cook only my pizza in the oven so it wasn’t cooking with a non-gf pizza, however, they were not busy at the time and I don’t know if they can always offer that accommodation. This also made my pizza come out 5ish minutes before my husbands (not gf) which we were fine with. This was probably the best gluten free pizza I’ve had as well. 10/10 would recommend and go back

Emma Steel

Ate dinner here a few times during our stay in Reykjavik, lovely food and service. Pizza's we're offered on Gluten Free bases, safely ate here as a Coeliac.

Had one of the best pieces of fish in my life and they had many options for people with a gluten allergy. Highly recommend

Great to find a vegan gluten free restaurant right in the middle of Reykjavik. We enjoyed our pad thai and pineapple rice. Both well presented and good portions. Prices are not bad to be in Reykjavik, lower than average as far as we could see from various menus around. We admire the values and ethics of this place both in terms of respect of nature and environment and for the inspiring and hopeful name. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Larse Claessens

Gluten-free available! Very good!

Wanda Darren

Nice place they have gluten-free options but obviously can not guarantee cross contamination, but they do try and make an effort. Food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Pat Bond

Fabulous dinner. Fabulous food. Snorri was an amazing server who assisted me with my gluten free needs.

Carolyn Jackson

Lisa Steinfeld

We found ourselves here because two people in our group have celiac disease and needed safe gluten free options to eat. This was on our first night in Iceland, so we were tired and not being as careful as we should have in terms of checking pricing. Our meal was outrageously expensive (especially for the small portion sizes and casual atmosphere), and what really killed us were the three margaritas we ordered. They were $23 each!! And they weren't even good. The food was good, though.

There is a pleasant atmosphere here 😎 good music and a nice man at the entrance, who greets you and takes you to a table 👍🏻 it was important to us that the dish was really gluten-free, and the restaurant employee kindly agreed to check if the dish was really gluten-free 👏🏻 we ordered Nachos with Chicken 👍🏻 it's a pity that there are not many gluten-free dishes, I would like to try something else 😋

Tomás Mulcahy

Usual prices but very big servings, and plenty of genuinely gluten free options for coeliac. Often a special that’s not up on the menu. Service can be a little odd- it sometimes looks closed! But the staff are super good.
