Himalayan Spice is cozy and inviting with some of the best food and best service I've had in town. As a local, it's expensive to eat out so we when we do, we pick places where we know the food is fresh and delicious and where we will be well taken care of. That's why my group of friends all chose Himalayan Spice to have a dinner to kick off the holiday season. The momo (house made dumplings) are always popular as a starter or a main course. This time I had chicken tika curry and it was as warm and rich as I had hoped it would be -- perfect for a wintry night! We have a friend who is extremely sensitive to gluten and one nice thing is that she never has to worry when eating here -- you can let your server know about any food allergies or intolerances and they will take good care of you. Highly recommend -- note there is an upstairs with good space to make big tables so larger groups are no problem. Be sure to book in advance!

If you get the chance to visit this tomato, please do. Absolutely gorgeous greenhouses, lunch served right inside among the plants. Staff was kind enough to give a tour. Gluten free bread available with the soup but is not guaranteed to be free from contamination, so they do offer a very filling salad as an alternative. One of the best lunches I've ever had, such a unique experience.

It's some of the best gluten free pizza I've had. We loved it and should have ordered a pizza to go. Husband got the black crust pizza, and he loved his as well. It was very busy but moved pretty quickly. Bathrooms were clean. Parking lot fills up. I would HIGHLY suggest stopping here.

Lovely food, very fresh and tasty. I advised I was gluten free and they talked through the menu which was also labelled. Provided some great gluten free bread when they brought over the bread basket for everyone else which I really appreciated. One of our party tried it and said they preferred it to the regular bread (which was also apparently really good). I would definitely return here when I next visit Reykjavik.

For anyone traveling with dietary restrictions - you have to go here! Second trip to Iceland and second trip to Tapas barinn. We took this trip with a different group of friends than our first trip and this was one of our only requirements as to where to eat and it did not disappoint anyone (and we set high expectations for this place). Most important thing for me was how amazing they handled my dietary restriction. I have celiac disease which can make eating out very difficult and I had absolutely no problems and did not feel like I was left out of any part of the dining experience and for those that have dietary restrictions, you know how this is very common. I didn't get sick at all, I was take very seriously, and they explained the protocols they would take. Every time they dropped of a plate they would say "gluten free tapas" so I knew they were handing me the right plate, enough to let me know but not over the top to make me feel uncomfortable. I had the chef's experience (last time I had the Taste of Iceland) along with my husband (who does not have a dietary restriction) and the changes they made to some tapas for me were no big deal at all, we both equally enjoyed our meals. Also, highly recommend the Taste of Iceland experience for first timers but the chef's experience was equally amazing, just think the Taste of Iceland is something everyone should try at least once. The overall atmosphere was amazing, staff could not have been friendly or more knowledgable of the menu. It is slightly pricey but 100% worth it. We did this as our "fancy" date night and we could not have asked for a better experience. Again, must go for anyone with a dietary restriction!

This restaurant offers a notably crispy gluten-free pizza option that stands out for its texture and flavor, though the gluten-free base may feel basic and carries an extra charge. The menu clearly indicates gluten-free dishes, catering to those with dietary restrictions, and the gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan selection is very good. The lively atmosphere, energized by upbeat music, complements the dining experience, but those with severe gluten allergies should be cautious due to occasional cross-contamination risks.

Pizzas are not worth the money. We had both normal and gluten-free based pizzas. Spice Girls had potential, but the base just didn't taste at all. Also the extra fee for gluten-free base is a rip-off, probably a basic frozen base. I don't like to say it, but you might be happier just grabbing a hot dog with all toppings.

This pizzeria alone would make us stay another night in Egilsstaðir. Properly outstanding pizza and my girlfriend got the gluten free base and tastes just like a regular base, which is very hard come by. Forgot to take pictures but there wasn’t even crumbs left on my plate!! Only suggestion I’d have is some extra choice in sides but can’t take stars away for that.

BEST FISH AND CHIPS IVE EVER HAD!!!!!! I’m gluten free so I haven’t had much but this was AMAZING!!! And the fries were amazing even without sauce. The service was also amazing. We even got a great recommendation for an ice cream place that sometimes has gluten free cones (they didn’t this time but it was still great) and got talked into trying the shark meat. Even though it was rainy and cold, there’s a good atmosphere around the truck.
