Matur og Drykkur Reykjavik

Matur og Drykkur, which translates to 'Food and Drink' in Icelandic, is a beloved restaurant in Reykjavik's Old Harbour district that takes its inspiration from historic Icelandic cookbooks and culinary traditions. The menu draws on preserved recipes from 1858 and the early 20th century, reinterpreting traditional Icelandic dishes with contemporary technique and presentation. Signature preparations include salt fish (bacalao), hákarl-cured lamb, and sheep's head bread — each dish offering a window into Iceland's austere but deeply flavorful food heritage. The restaurant's warm, unpretentious atmosphere makes it equally popular with local families and adventurous visitors.
