Dineout | Sægreifinn

Sægreifinn, known as The Sea Baron, is a beloved seafood restaurant in Reykjavík’s old harbor. Housed in a quaint green-painted fisherman’s hut, it offers a cozy and unpretentious atmosphere that attracts locals and tourists. The restaurant was founded by Kjartan Halldórsson, a retired fisherman and coast guard chef, who began by grilling fresh fish for visitors right in his fish shop. This humble beginning became one of the city’s most iconic dining spots.
