Review summary

DILL in Reykjavik offers New Nordic cuisine with an average rating of 3.9/5. Food quality is polarizing: praised for innovative local ingredients and extensive tasting menus, yet criticized for uniform dill-pickled flavors and imbalanced dishes. Service is generally excellent, with knowledgeable staff, though occasional pacing issues occur. The atmosphere is unique, featuring a hidden entrance that requires patience to locate. While many find the high price justified by the experience, some consider it lacking value relative to its Michelin status. Overall, it delivers a distinct Icelandic culinary journey, though consistency varies.

Best for

Suitable for diners seeking unique Icelandic flavors and New Nordic innovation who can navigate a hidden entrance and accept premium pricing.
