Reviews
Absolutely phenomenal food and service. Wouldn’t have expected it when I first walked in and saw it was closer to cafeteria style than a regular restaurant, but don’t let that fool you. The meal was as good as I’ve had anywhere else in the city and the staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. All of them seemed to really care about what they were doing. Definitely check this out if you’re looking for food in the area.
The food was absolutely excellent. If you want to try the fresh Atlantic cod of Iceland, try the salted cod here. Wonderfully prepared and the taste left me wanting to go back. I am disappointed not to have time to eat here again to try other dishes. (The potato served with the salted cod dish was the best I’ve had in a very long time!)
Fish of the day (salmon) was fantastic! Good people watching too. 😊
Super nice place, delicious fish and friendly staff. I came here randomly, ate well and had great conversations. Totally recommended!
The food was absolutely amazing, and the coffee was delicious! Thomas and Fred were such a pleasure to chat with—both so friendly and welcoming. We stopped by early Sunday right after they opened, and it was the perfect start to our day.
