Sjáland

About Sjáland

For an upscale meal without heading into central Reykjavík, Sjáland in Garðabær is worth knowing about. Garðabær is one of the towns that make up the capital region, a short drive south of the city centre, and travellers staying on this side of the area often prefer eating locally to driving downtown.

For travellers lodging in Garðabær or Hafnarfjörður, this is the local answer to a special-occasion dinner that would otherwise mean a drive into town and back. Pitch it as the set-piece evening of a capital-region stay — an anniversary, a last night before flying home — rather than a casual drop-in between sights.
