The Mustard Seed Restaurant

Very much enjoyed our dinner. The Carrot-Cumin Soup was delicious, as was the Chicken Balmoral; very hearty. Our wait person was very friendly and helpful; we were trying to guess her accent; after several attemps she finally told us she was from Romania. Wonderful person. Wonderful restaurant!

Very pleasant, tables quite close together. Lovely meal. Pricey wine

The food at the Mustard Seed is always so tasty

was our favourite resraurants in town, poor table service now,

Thanks for a lovely meal. We enjoyed ourselves and the service was especially great!

Over 20 minutes before someone took our order. Food was underwhelming. It was not bad. Just not as good as it used to be. We feel this may be due to keeping prices down. Other good restaurants in Invernes and everywhere else in UK have had to put prices up, but increases in Mustard Seed have been minimal. Perhaps an increase in prices is overdue?

This restaurant is constantly booked up and probably trades a lot off its reputation. It was okay but not the best place we have eaten (the steak was tough - prob not tenderised) but the river view is nice if you can get one of those tables and the service and the rest of the food we ate was good.

Very busy so service a bit slow. Wrong starter brought (fish cake instead of spring rolls). Otherwise good; food tasty and friendly waitress.

Wonderful setting, food and service. And reasonable prices. Book in advance as very popular with us locals.....

Stressed service and starters before both Negroni and white wine. Food OK

Good food, Great ambiance very convenient to the railroad station

A bit understaffed in The Mustard Seed last Friday, so service, though apologetic, slow. Good wine, place not too busy which is good as the open plan can make it noisy sometimes. We‘ve been going now and again for many years, and as non-meat-eaters it‘s never been the greatest menu. Decent but hardly spectacular. Staff all lovely but no sense of anyone overseeing or supervising. They need to up their game.

Excellent meal, excellent service, good wine. We are local regulars and we keep going back.

Love the Mustard Seed! Great atmosphere, service and food. Visit every time we’re in Inverness.

Nous avons apprécié nos plats. Plats simples. Bon rapport qualité prix. Le restaurant est un peu bruyant.

Not the best meal /menu we have had at the Mustard Seed. Scallops starter was excellent. Roasted tuna was a bland dish. Roast potatoes were disappointing and broccoli was probably undercooked. Eton Mess was mainly very thick cream with very tart raspberries and a few pieces of meringue. But we will be back and hoping for better next time.

Lovely food, good service and a great location. Very popular so make sure you book in advance to avoid disappointment .

Such a shame tbh. Soup was offered as mushroom but was in fact mushroom and tarragon & there was no GF bread to go with the GF soup. The pear salad starter was swimming in salad dressing. Unfortunately the mains didn't fare much better. The broccoli was so hard you couldn't cut through it with a knife, the dauphine potatoes weren't edible. Have always had lovely meals in the past but today was a huge disappointment. The restaurant refunded the starters. Paid for the main courses but it wasn't worth it.

We had a lovely waitress who made made the whole experience so enjoyable. Would highly recommend for a relaxed lunch time treat with wonderful food at an affordable price.

We had a lovely time and really enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely recommend.

Really enjoyed a family lunch at the Mustard Seed. Food was great, and great value.

Always good food, good value and an ambience with a buzz.

Nice setting, friendly service but food was just okay. Nothing stood out really. Our last night in Scotland after 16 days of amazing food experiences.

Perfect setting for our introduction to Inverness! Great menu options and service.

Mon plat était tiède, peu de sauce, le pain n'en parlons pas. Pour moi c'est une cuisine de collectivité ; trop cher pour ce que c'est.

Excellent! Very attentive staff and great dining experience! I will be back!

A first rate meal for quality. The same does not quite apply to quantity: the portions were quite small.

In Great food and great service! Our waitress went over and beyond

Even though the restaurant was busy when we arrived, the staff were quick to take our order and we didn't have to wait long for our food and drinks. The staff were cheery and our waitress had us laughing ☺️

The food was really tasty and the staff friendly, but service was quite slow. Our table was uncomfortably close to a large, noisy group, with servers constantly passing right by us, which made the experience a bit chaotic despite the great food.

Wait staff was attentive! Food was excellent and arrived in a timely fashion. Great ambiance as well! Would definitely return!

Very good service. Food was just fine, but not especially good or great; thus overpriced.

Bediening was niet zo goed en het eten was niet zo lekker

Lovely place to have an early dinner before an Eden court show - served promptly and very friendly staff. Food was delicious and drink also very good and very well priced too Just a lovely place to go for dinner and drinks

Great food, beautiful setting over the river . Good wine .

Lovely food perfectly cooked and presented. Great Service and we made special friends with Danielle who was an excellent waitress. It was a very happy evening.

Food was delicious, we left nothing on our plates! Portions were perfect 👍

Great service as is always the case at this restaurant.

We came to celebrate our 25th Silver Wedding Anniversary and were attentively looked after. Lovely touch to receive 2 complimentary glasses of Prosecco on arrival. Food was perfectly presented, cooked well, delicious, and flavoursome. We will be back again. Thank you

Was a lovely experience and enjoyed the food.Tables for two could be a little bit bigger as hardly any room for all the utensils, glasses and plates etc.

Fabulous food and lovely friendly staff. Very good value, highly recommend. Already looking forward to another visit.

Food was very good. The restaurant itself was too hot inside with no airflow. And they sat us next to a table with a 3 yo not controlled by the parents.

Location carina, cibo abbastanza buono, servizio molto lento. Non esattamente economico.

It felt very rush ! Like they wanted us in and out. Our meals were thrown on the table. Definitely not the experience we were looking for.

Nice setting and atmosphere. Food was delicious - ordered the day’s special scallop and mussel; venison (since it’s mentioned a lot among Google reviews) and salmon. Service was good paced for us - not too slow nor rushed.

Excellent service. Very friendly staff. Food was amazing. It's been 10 years since we last visited and it was just as we remembered.

Very pleasant and obliging staff and very nice tasty food.

Très bon rapport qualité prix, service efficace et localisation centrale.

Nettes Lokal, zuvorkommende Bedienung, Preis/Leistung prima, wirklich sehr zu empfehlen!

Food and service was excellent as always. Quality fresh food and reasonably priced. Thank you!
