Sümac Grill + Drinks
Reykjavik
Arvostelut
Fantastic restaurant. All authentic Lebanese dishes with a little modernization. The kibbeh and dips were great. Must go to in Iceland.
Really just incredible place. Food was amazing. Chicken wings so good. Hummus was smooth and goat was delicious. Flatbread....yum! Chicken shawarma was divine! Lamb delicious and cooked just right. Everything flame cooked and slight char was just so good! Drinks were excellent. Pricey but worth it IMO. Service absolutely on point. The restaurant is beautiful inside and decorated perfectly. A must-visit if in Reykjavik and looking for a fancier type of dinner. Will be back!
Best meal we had in Iceland. Great ambiance, lovely service, and most importantly, delicious food. The hummus and grilled flatbread was good, but the chicken shawarma and potatoes were phenomenal (and the potatoes had a little bit of a spicy kick that was flavorful not painful).
My experience at Sumac was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, the hospitality and food were on another level. I first met Donna, the manager, the day before our reservation. She graciously helped me push our reservation back to the exact time I requested without hesitation. She also shared information about their sister restaurant, ÓX, which has an incredible speakeasy-style bar you absolutely don’t want to miss. Even though Donna wasn’t working on Valentine’s Day, she made sure the manager on duty would take great care of us and she absolutely delivered. Ottny, the manager the evening of our reservation, welcomed us with a warm smile and seated us immediately. The transition was seamless, and you could tell the team truly communicates and cares about the guest experience. Now let’s talk about our server, Elham —phenomenal doesn’t even begin to describe her. She went above and beyond in every way, guiding us through the menu and recommending dishes that truly made Sumac stand out from any other restaurant in Reykjavik. We ordered: Fried Halloumi ( So good ) Braised Goat Hummus Duck Cigars Baba Ganoush Carrots ( Different and must order!) Grill Plate for Two as our main Every single dish was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully executed. The carrots alone are worth coming back for. Sumac is already on the Michelin Guide, but in my opinion, it truly deserves a star .. it feels like it’s only a matter of time. Whenever I come back to Reykjavik, this will be an absolute MUST revisit for me. Shoutout to the entire team .. there was one more person who was so kind however I did forget her name , I hope she gets recognized as well!
We visited Sümac in January during our trip to Iceland to celebrate a special occasion. Every dish was outstanding—especially the flatbread—and the seafood and fish were perfectly executed. I also like the alcohol free Aperitif choices. The atmosphere felt warm yet refined. We truly had a wonderful time.
