About

North Island visitors find Grill, a restaurant on Hafnarstræti 67 in Akureyri. The kitchen turns out grilled dishes, with the focus on flame-cooked meat and the simple accompaniments that suit it. Its website, http://www.northrestaurant.is/, is where the menu lives. Diners have scored it 4.7 out of 5 from 156 reviews, a figure that reflects steady local and visitor trade.

Akureyri sits on the northern coast, and the ring of towns around it includes Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth. That spread means the restaurant draws from a wide catchment rather than a single neighbourhood. The 156-review total puts it among the better-known tables in the area.

Seasons here run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. Traffic drives on the left, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. English is the main language, with te reo Māori also official, so Māori place names appear throughout.
