REVIEW

It was pretty slow when i went there with a friend.

About 5 tables were occipied. We were seated immediately and menu's offered.

I had a Classic Rock burger and she had Tex Mex chicken breast.

The wait was pretty short, and we had some of the soup of the day while we waited.

The soup was mushroom and was excellent after adding alittle bit of black pepper.

This restaurants is one of my favourites, the walls are lined with old posters and pictures.

The burger was perfect, the onion rings were crispy and the burger was grilled to perfection. Pink on the inside well seasoned.

My friend was very happy with the chicken. It was juicy and tasted great.

This steakhouse is the oldest still open steakhouse in Iceland.

The only thing bothering me about the whole experience is the tv's in the corner that were playing "NOVA TV"

An Icelandic music network, playing shitty new pop. It kinda ruined the classic rock ambience in the restaurant

Ah good old American food taking over restaurants all over the world! Sounds like it was worth the visit. Although I'm honestly curious what you would actually want to be on a TV at a restaurant as I always thought the point of going to a restaurant was to get away from the TV?

Usually they are turned off unless there is a sports event of some kind.
