Bad service and the food is even worse. Will not be visiting again.
Worst than gas station sushi in the states. Don't bother.
Great service, really fresh food and a great selection of classic sushi and more local versions. No more expensive than anywhere else in Reykjavik and the quality was very good.
Will definitely not be returning to this restaurant. Me and a friend went yesterday and when we were ordering the waiter was like “we have a special if you order two of these rolls, it’s a 2 for one deal!” We thought, awesome we’ll do that! Ordered, got the food no problem though it took a long time as they work very slowly. When leaving we asked the waiter when they have the deal he responded with “all day, every day”. We enjoyed the food so we decided to come back today for the deal,we arrived asked the waitress about the special and she responded with yes so we ordered again. Come to find out that apparently we had to be apart of some Nova thing on our phones that we don’t have that. We were very annoyed that NO ONE said anything to us about it and then had to pay $47 for 2 basic sushi rolls! They waitress had to call her manager and discuss it with him, totally acceptable, they talked for a minute and then came back saying we had to pay full price. We were clearly confused and upset so she handed the phone to me so I could talk to him. The manager was a COMPLETE jerk, saying that they don’t advertise the special and that no one would have told us about it so we must have known before we came. Literally didn’t believe me that his waiter the day before told and gave us the special and that we had no idea we had to be part of the Nova thing. I was very disgusted and disappointed with the way he handled the situation, as soon as I got on the phone he was like “you need to pay full price”, he didn’t even know all the info or care one bit about us being dissatisfied with the service.
Had very unpleasant experience with this place. Ordered for take away 30min before they close and when we were picking it up, chef decided to ironically comment to us: "Thank you for ordering so early". If was not nice to hear, especially when other sushi places in Reykjavík are much better quality and service. Go to Osushi or Tokyo Sushi, where we had take away 15 min before they close with a line of people getting late dinners and it was absolutely no problem. Sushibarinn thinks, they are too good for business, no surprise downtown location closed and information is still not updated. They just don't seem to care. The quality of sushi also leaves much to be desired and the portion you get for 5000kr was barely enough for a couple. Shame.
The mixed plate for 1 gave me the worst food poisoning of my life. I will never return to this slop hole
Delicious sushi, the service was super friendly and it didn't take very long to resive our order. Would definitely come again!
I really like sushi and was looking forward to seeing what sushi in Iceland tastes like. Unfortunately this place was very slow in serving, badly undercooked the tofu in the miso soup, and provided old and weak tasting ginger and wasabi with the sushi. 2 stars because at least the fish was good as it tends to be in Iceland.
This place is a quiet gem tucked away between office spaces and hotels.
The sushi is exquisite and worth waiting for, just make sure you aren't in a rush when you come here.
Super slow sushi service
Came there 30 mins to close and cant order sushi, SAD !
Not do good food and very Vietnamese type not so much sushi
Very good food and the waitress was happy and fun, but had to wait super long for a table even tho there were only couple of people sitting there. Slow to clean up and seat us and same about taking our order, waited. But maybe the were understaffed or something.
Will go again def. for the food.
Green apple definitely belongs in sushi.
