Très cher pour une qualité correcte mais sans plus. Une déception
The food was fantastic, it was bustling and vibrant the staff were great especially the young lady that served us.
Lovely food, great service. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great location with views of the river
Amazing food and service was very organized. A great overall dining experience, we were very happy with this restaurant!
Lovely atmosphere, good food and great service. Out entree was standout, perhaps the best mussels I’ve ever had! Really enjoyed our dinner.
Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.
First class service and food, excellent value for money recomend
Food was amazing . Staff were very nice will be back for sure
Food was good. Too many different servers - lapses in communication. Waited over 20 minutes for dessert, coffee never came.
Lovely evening meal, food was delicious and not overpriced for the set menu. Staff were really friendly and really looked after us. Thank you!
This is a charming restaurant with great food and staff.
Excellent food, service, and ambience. Only critique is their cheap, dull steak knives.
Goede service, vriendelijke gastheer en geweldig eten op een prachtige locatie. 10/10
We meet amazing people out of the North-ouest vlast of Scotland and people of Syria; we had a very Nice talk with them, enjoying a delicious meal.
service was great. food excellent. we enjoyed it very much!
Great service from cheerful staff. Food excellent as usual. Thanks
We were disappointed. The recommendation wasn't fulfilled. The cozy atmosphere was missing. The food wasn't as good as expected. The salmon was overcooked, not seasoned, and the chicken was dry and tough.
Super food, monkfish for me & lamb shank for companion
I was really excited to visit the Mustard Seed again after 10 years (I'm not local), I had specifically planned to return and included in my resevation my excitement to return. Unfortunately, as a lone diner I was stuck up a corner in an annex to the main resturant on a wobbly table - it made me feel more isolated as a lone diner, it also removed me to the atmosphere of the resturant and removed any opportunity of enjoyment of the architecture of the main building (it was busy, and when I arrived my table wasn't ready, so I didn't feel I could ask to be moved). I had also noted that I had a fish and seafood allergy, but was told the specials, all of which were fish and seafood, which made me feel they hadn't read my resevation note and also wasted the staff's time on a busy evening. I ordered the truffles, which were presented as three battered mushrooms (I doubt they were truffles) around a huge piece of polenta which felt like a stodgy distraction. My main was the beetroot and goat cheese risotto, which again was stodgy - with how great my original experience of the mustard seed had been I had expected a beautiful delicate meal, but instead I was served a huge plate of bright pink risotto with a large amount of green garnish on top. It would have been much more attractive and managable (I think for most people) to receive half the size of the portion with the rest of the bowl delicately dressed in garnish - as the Mustard Seed are good at presentation from the other plates I saw delivered to nearby tables. My drink of lemon and lime also wasn't served until my main arrived, I had wondered whether it had been forgotted. I didn't stay for dessert as I felt I'd experienced enough dissapointment for the visit. The staff were generally pleasant, but I won't be planning a trip to the Mustard Seed again if I find myself in Inverness. I do wish them the best of luck for the future.
From start to finish we had a delicious meal. Our server Bridget, a woman of few words, was not the most helpful. However, the server assistant, Rachael, was an delight and made our evening special.
The food was great, the atmosphere buzzy and the staff friendly.
Great place for dinner overlooking the water. Food & drinks are excellent.
Exceptional food, great atmosphere, attentive staff. Mustard seed never fails.
Lovely staff, young lady knew exactly when we needed assistance & when to leave us to eat our meal, think her name began with a B? Lovely young lad was duty manager & made the right amount of small talk , very professional. Food delicious as always, I had the panko black pudding followed by chicken breast, my dining guest had Caesar salad followed by the lamb sausages, all choices delicious. Washed down with a bottle of El Niño Paper red wine Whole meal excellent value for money Two repeat customers
Lovely late lunch. Great service and delicious imaginative food and drink.
Excellent food and friendly staff in a nice, relaxed atmosphere.
I was visiting by myself, here in inverness for a couple of days, a lady on her own ,Hubby left at home, just having a few days to myself I always have a visit to mustard Seed, shall be back in october
We were disappointed to be seated in a small bare room off to the side of the beautiful dining room. It had literally no atmosphere. Fake flowers and a couple hand mirrors hanging on hooks on the wall. Very strange. Totally different feel than the beautiful dining room we hoped to enjoy. If you go, avoid this room. The food was good and service pleasant.
Food was delicious . Manager was able to move us to a better table. We so appreciated it!
Great food and service in Inverness Visit from the USA
pleasant lunch in a lively atmosphere will likely return again
My sister and I had a delightful dinner at The Mustard Seed. The early dinner menu offers fun, tasty, and nicely presented dishes. I like the restaurant's ambiance. I wish we were staying in Inverness longer in order to enjoy another meal.
Excellent meal ,lovely atmosphere and friendly staff .Will be going again
Such a very happy lunch, loved the round table - we could all hear each other and were all seen.The food was delicious and the service really good. Many thanks.
Tasty fresh food and attentive service, always a go to for a pre theatre meal !
Repas délicieux de l’entrée au dessert, avec beaucoup de choix et pour un prix en-dessous de ce qu’on peut voir en Ecosse pour cette qualité. Service impeccable!
Lovely lunch, good selection, piping hot food. Good service, will definitely visit again.
Great restaurant - service and food first class. A real gem in Inverness.
We always stop off at Mustard on our way up to Orkney tomorrow and visit family. It never disappoints. Super food and lovely, friendly staff.
Another enjoyable afternoon of great food and good service. can highly recommend.
always an excellent meal and great service. can highly recommend.
Indifferent service, never checked back or refilled water. Waitress only spoke to my husband. Fish cakes like something frozen. Disappointing.
At least of the menu options were unavailable which was disappointing as they had been my first choices.
As always it was a great experience, Just what is expected
The restaurant was lovely and really enjoyed the food! Definitely a must
Have been many times to The Mustard Seed, and can honestly say I'm never disappointed. Food is always cooked to perfection and the service is great with friendly helpful staff. Highly recommend!
Went to the Mustard Seed while passing through Inverness on my birthday! My parents were visiting from our of the country and we all really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere!
Fabulous staff, great service and amazing food as always, easily the best restaurant in Inverness
The Mustard Seed is a very attractive restaurant with some lovely views of the river from the upper floor. Our main courses were venison and salmon, both were very nice. Crème brûlée and cheesecake finished off the meal. Service was friendly, yet unobtrusive. I would definitely recommend The Mustard Seed.
Great food - we had the steaks on the regular menu and they were cooked perfectly. Staff efficient .. guy behind bar was very helpful when we first arrived despite him looking very busy
Really lovely food and the staff are very good at their job. Brilliant experience and would highly recommend eating there.
