Rub23 Sushi

Located in a large red house in the heart of Akureyri, Rub 23 specialises in sushi and seafood with an Asian-American twist and a hot kick, something which has been a hit with both locals and tourists since it opened in 2008. The name derives from its homemade spice rubs. Here you mix and match a selection of seafood and meats with flavours and rubs you desire. Both the menu and the wine list are extensive, and whisky buffs, too, will find a great selection. The service is solid, proper and friendly. The ‘sushi pizza’ is a signature dish, made with nori tempura and arctic char in sweet soy sauce – elegant and packed with flavour. We can only agree with the locals that this place is worth visiting again.
