Signature: Wabamm burger, Diner breakfast
Order: The Wabamm burger, stacked with caramelised onion and chilli mayo.

Devito's Pizza has sold no-frills pies near Hlemmur on Laugavegur since 1994, a Reykjavik late-night staple for cheap, fast slices after the bars close.
Signature: Late-night pizza
Order: A simple pepperoni; this is fuel pizza, not an artisan project.
Tip: Open late and established by the after-hours crowd. Order at the counter; do not expect a sit-down meal.
