Out of the many dozens of places I've dined at in Iceland over the years, this is hands down one of the best (and one of the best of all my travels). Every dish from start to finish was really, really excellent. I was nervous about trying Japanese Italian fusion, but it turned out to be spectacular. I highly recommend going with the staff suggestions as all of those dishes were a win. The milk bread and nori with the miso butter and tofu spread were our favorite. The Bikini crumpets were unreal in how good they were; the flavor and texture were outstanding and my favorite dish. We also had the crudo and carpaccio. The crudo was very bright and fresh, but it does have cilantro (not listed on menu) so if you have an aversion it might not be the dish for you. The carpaccio was the best I've ever had anywhere in the world; the use of hazelnuts was incredibly delicious. The lobster pasta and ravioli were incredible and the past was cooked perfectly al dente with so much flavor. The Amalfi lemon dessert was so unique and the gluten free pastry served with it was incredible! I would eat here over and over again. The food, atmosphere, and staff all make this place a must-not-miss if you're in Reykjavik.

OTO restaurant in downtown Reykjavik is a contemporary culinary gem. It has a casual, modern feel and suits many different occasions. Their menu has a Japanese and Italian influence but OTO prides itself on using high quality local ingredients where Icelandic fish and lamb have the limelight. The owner - Chef, Sigurdur Laufdal, also strives to make the best possible use of every ingredient to minimize food waste.  Each dish is a small work of art that surprises the taste buds with it´s special twist. Famous guest chefs occasionally visit and work their own magic but personally I think OTO´s own menu  is the best. Their table service is as excellent as the food they serve. My favorite restaurant in Reykjavik, OTO is a true jewel on an international scale.

Truly one of the top restaurants in Reykjavik. Service was very nice and the food was otherworldly. One of my favourite restaurants in Iceland coming from a Icelander

Had a wonderful meal here in August 2023.
Food was really very tasty and service was nearly flawless.
Sommelier was particularly fun to interact with.

The chef came to visit our table and chatted for a couple of minutes. Pleasant guy.

I hope to visit here again in the future.
