Restauracja Suður-Vík

Perched on the hillside above Vík, Restaurant Suður-Vík is a longstanding local favourite with sweeping views over the village and the iconic Reynisdrangar sea stacks. The mood is homey and relaxed, a contrast to some of the busier roadside stops.

The menu is unusually broad for a small south-coast town, ranging from local Arctic char and the well-known Suður-Vík burger to Thai curries, pizzas and locally made ice cream, with solid gluten-free and vegan choices.

It is popular with both locals and visitors, so a reservation in peak season is wise. Open daily from morning into the evening, it suits everything from a relaxed lunch to a hearty dinner.
