Obviously a very popular restaurant and staff appeared to be 'flat out' the entire time we were there. No sooner had a table become free and it was cleaned, reset and immediately filled with waiting guests. Our meal was enjoyable but not as exceptional as I anticipated with the popularity.

Appreciate the ease of making the reservation in the United States before we left for Inverness. The food was delicious. The service was good. The ambiance and sound level was nice. The only issue was my husband was in direct sunlight. The window had no shade to block the sun.

We were a tinsy bit disappointed this visit .. the experience felt a little muddled and less exacting than our previous occasions last November. The food was delicious but really needed more green vegetables and could have been a hotter temperature .. maybe it was because we ate later than we would prefer but time choice had been limited when booking and maybe service was coming to a close .. we didn’t ask for it to be redone / warmer. Maybe more colour added to your dishes and when your new front of house manager has settled into his role things will return to your usual standard.

Excellent meal, great service at a very reasonable price. Only distraction from our seat near the door was the number of people without bookings who had to be turned away!

the lemon sole looked and tasted more like cod. Server was also slow and also didn't want to be there.

Our server barely paid any attention to us despite providing more attention to those around us. Several other employees had to stop by our table to assist. Maybe she was too busy. We had to ask for bread. Overall food was good but service was not as expected. If it weren't for the hostess and the other servers I don't think we would have received any service.

Fantastic lunch with friends, beautiful restaurant and great atmosphere. I had a steak, it was good but a little tough for my liking although it was porterhouse which is not the best cut of steak you can get, the staff were awesome

While the drinks and food were good, they were out of a couple of desired food on offer on the board. In addition, the service was not good. It seemed to be a chore to seat and serve us despite having reservations and our requests needed to be repeated. As I said, food and drinks were good, so may have been an off night for service.

Were seated downstairs in a side room which was freezing every time someone opened the door (which happened a lot). Thankfully when I resorted to putting my jacket on we were given a table upstairs which was much cosier! Thank you staff!

One of us was vegetarian and her experience was very poor. There was only one vegetarian option on the lunch menu- penne pasta, tomatoes and feta cheese. It was bland, unimpressive and we could have made it better at home. The vegetarian options should be as good as the meat/fish options in the current climate with adequate protein content rss as thee than carb heavy. The meat option was fine. Suggest some work needs to be done on the vegetarian offer as this ruined the experience for all concerned. Having said that, our waiter was great. Thanks

An absolutely delicious, seasonal, healthy menu. Real focus on local ingredients. The atmosphere feels special without being pretentious, and the staff are so attentive and friendly. Service was super fast. Second time here and will definitely be back!
