The story

TIDES Reykjavík – Michelin Recommended Modern Seafood Restaurant at The Reykjavik EDITION

A Celebration of Iceland’s Waters

At TIDES, the kitchen’s focus is clear: the best seafood from Iceland’s pristine waters, alongside locally-sourced meat and ingredients. The simplicity of Nordic cuisine is key here, allowing each element to speak for itself. Much of the seafood is cooked to perfection on a Josper Charcoal Grill, which imparts a subtle smokiness without overpowering the natural flavours. The result is a menu that feels both grounded and refined.

The Atmosphere

Located within The Reykjavik EDITION, the restaurant is described as warm and inviting. It is designed for sharing—whether with friends over a relaxed meal, for a romantic dinner, or simply for those seeking an extraordinary culinary experience. The space complements the food, offering a setting that is both elegant and welcoming.

The Menu

The menu is built around the freshest catches. Starters include Icelandic langoustine and scallops in a creamy fisherman’s soup, North Atlantic snow crab salad with vanilla and aquavit, and Black Angus tartare with marrow and fermented cucumber. The four-course tasting menu, paired with a curated wine selection, offers a journey through these flavours. The wine list is chosen to harmonise seamlessly with the modern cuisine, and the cocktail programme features inventive drinks like the Fire & Wool, made with oaked brennivín and lamb fat.

Recognition and Responsibility

TIDES has earned a place on the Michelin Guide’s recommended list, a recognition that speaks to the quality and consistency of the experience. The restaurant also holds The PLEDGE on Food Waste certification, reflecting a genuine commitment to operating responsibly and preventing waste. This is a restaurant that honours its surroundings—both the sea and the land—while offering a truly memorable meal.
