Had a reservation so no wait time. Staff was very pleasant but a crush of customers made their task challenging
Lunch was okay, but not up to previous visits. Portion sizes definitely smaller now, distinct lack of vegetables, just carrots with mjne ( you used to get seperate vegetable platter) and not much sauce. Staff lovely and friendly.
Lovely food, a bit noisy, great service, recommended - you’d better like fish
I appreciate the swapping of baked vegetables for the creamy vegetables that were listed. The food was delicious. The soup was amazing.
Salmon, Beef were great. Service was prompt and friendly. The recommended venison was tough and the owner promptly brought a replacement entree. Must have advance reservations as there were walk-in hoards turned away.
Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.
The noise level was quite high. Would be difficult for people with hearing problems. The service was a bit abrupt. All the staff were extremely busy.
Great atmosphere and service. We enjoyed the food and wine.
Great service and the food was outstanding and thanks again
Great service, delicious food, lovely ambience. A really lovely evening, our waitress even brought a candle to the table when she realised it was my husband’s birthday. Highly recommended but book early to avoid disappointment
Awesome food and service. We had a great meal and it was reasonably priced for the quality and presentation of the plates.
Found myself disappointed with my fish main! 3 prawns and 3 chunks of monk fish, monk fish still had a bit of membrane left on, which made it chewy,with a load of cream with a bit of garlic thrown in. And a small portion of rice. Presentation did not make the plate look that appetising at all. The bacon did not look cooked enough, so chose to pull it all out. More bacon than fish!!! Did not have a starter or the sweet course, so left hungry! And the mushroom sauce with my husbands steak tasted of mushroom condensed soup, which I myself have used on occasion. No complaints about the service at all.
Dessert was amazing. Great service. High noise level. Unique setting.
Just had a lovely meal here today with my son great food and quick friendly service.
Food was great, everything we had from starters to desserts. Service was good and ambiance was lively and authentic.
Amazing food and service! I would Highly recommend this beautiful restaurant.
Thanks for a great evening. One more veggie option for a main would have made it a perfect experience, though the gnocchi was great.
Amazing!!!! Service was sensational, as was the food. Would definately highly recommend.
Fantastic food and good service. Loved the duck! Everything was delicious.
Wait staff was wonderful. Excellent food and desserts. Highly recommend .
Reipas ja ystävällinen henkilökunta, ruoka hyvää ja lämmintä, mukava interiööri.
Wow - this places lives up to its reputation- outstanding food and service.
Very disappointed in the food today. Soup was very watery. Chicken was tough. The service was very good. The staff were lovely and helpful. Been a while since I was there but Mustard Seed’s food was always tasty and well cooked. Today was just tasteless.
Superb as always. Great food, great value and great service 👍
Outstanding food, server and hostess. Please consider writing a cookbook!
Bus load of loud Americans… but both our server and the meal were very good
Great service, easy to book. Fantastic food,and atmosphere. Couldn't ask for any better
The food was fantastic -- overall traditional, but with little flairs like the caprese-salad-on-puff-pastry. In general everything was well made and carefully thought through. The worst I can say is that they were out of the panna cotta when we were there :-)
The staff is great and food was very good. It’s a busy place!
Pre booked so no waiting, service was prompt and attentive and food was very tasty and well cooked and presented as it always has been when we’ve been there over the last 25+ years.
Beautiful food as always, lovely atmosphere and service top noch.
Monkfish dish very dry and disappointing . Other food excellent, as was service and ambiance.
The food and the service were absolutely wonderful. We booked this months ago and so happy we did. Thank you so much for a fantastic dining experience.
The food was excellent and only upstaged by the service. The servers were courteous, efficient and made sure we wanted for nothing. This is our second visit and we will be back again whenever n Inverness.
Noisy restaurant with a take-it-or-leave-it attitude. We walked out after a quick drink.
1st time visit our 10th Anniversary today 08.09.23 we had a fabulous meal every course was spot on looked after by the lovely Brian. 100% recommend
Delicious food, great atmosphere! Staff was great and very helpful
The restaurant was very crowded, loud and warm inside. The staff was professional and friendly. The brie starter salad was excellent as was the sea bass. The chicken and salmon entrees seemed dry. The accompanying vegetables to all four of our entrees were undercooked and not hot.
Wasn’t the best food I had ever had. Very disappointing
Nice food, very busy so the staff was overwhelmed. It was a pleasant experience.
Enjoyed lunch on our final day in Inverness. Couldn’t have chose a better venue with a beautiful view of the river Ness. The food was amazing as was the vino. Superb and attentive service from the staff. They were amazing. Great value. Highly recommended
Typical high-volume, good restaurant. The food was excellent. Service, OK. We had to ask for water. And a refill, which never came. Very noisy.
Great food and warm welcome Restaurant has character and food is an authentic local Scottish experience A real treat
Very good food served promptly, great atmosphere, back again asap
We had an early dinner booking due to booking at the last minute. The food and service were exceptional. Would definitely recommend.
Today Mustard Seed you fell well short of a grading, this originates back to the chef not checking the quality of food being served. Booked in for a special lunch have travelled over from Skye. The chicken main course was inedible, impossible to cut and wholly indigestible resulting in us having to part leave our main Course. The waiter could only apologise. I suspect others having the same would have encountered the same quality of food. Unfortunately Mustard Seed due the quality of food today your restaurant is not an eatery we could recommend to others.
The staff was kind and fun and the food was excellent. Good price point on wine. Great spot.
Fab food, great service and friendly staff. Well done Donna!
Lovely food and great service what's not to like. Excellent.
The staff was very friendly, but the food took quite a while to receive. We did have to wait about 10-15 minutes for our table with a reservation. Not a huge deal.
We visited for lunch and chose the steak option. On the upside the hot smoked salmon caesar salad was great as was the cinnamon apple crumble. Now to the mains; one was very good whilst the other was pretty awful. The steak knife didn't even cut through around half of the stake which was very disappointing. We were seriously overcharged (over £30 which we noticed having paid the bill and adding on the percentage tip, The overcharge was rectified but the tip proportion was not refunded nor was that offered. A disappointing visit this time. Previous visits have been good.
