Food was nice but the service was lacking. It felt very rushed and unpersonable.

As usual it was amazing, can't wait to return again.

Staff pleasant and efficient. Starters ok. All 3 main courses were really poor. The rump steak was an inferior piece of meat, run through with gristle which made it difficult to cut or chew. The pork loin, at £28, was actually half fat which was inedible and had to be left on the plate. The gnocchi were tasteless, no sign of coconut. For dessert the cranachan had a smear of raspberry sauce but was topped with strawberries!!!! This was a huge disappointment 😥

Overall quite disappointing. Both the mussel and mackerel pate starters were well cooked, nicely presented, good portion size and tasty. Both the main courses of rib-eye and venison haunch were really disappointing. The steak was grey, with no caramelization and was poorly seasoned. It arrived with veg missing requiring a request for the carrots. It was badly presented and for such an expensive cut of meat, it was treated with little respect. The carrots were burnt and the broccoli discoloured and barely cooked. The venison in the other main course was cooked well but not rested at all so the very soft(sloppy) potato mash underneath was drenched in blood. Really unpleasant. Similarly the accompanying veg was under-cooked. The desserts were basic, with little attention to detail. Both desserts looked rushed with no real attention to detail. Two sorbet scoops with nothing added for presentation. The crannachan also looked rushed but tasted nice. On a positive note there was a pleasant ambiance and friendly staff. Mustard Seed has a good reputation and we had eaten there before. Unfortunately on this occasion it fell far short in key areas of food preparation and presentation.

Ambience is good. Excited to have the same table as 4 years ago.. The birthday boy was unable to get his first choice of main course.Another member of the group felt his steak was slightly overdone. Overall we enjoyed our experience.

Good food, excellent service, great value for money. Topped off by wonderful views of the river. I thoroughly recommend The Mustard Seed.

Fabulous meal. Fresh, tasty and beautiful presented. Staff were super, as always, and lovely to be looked after so well by Sophia. 😊

Great service, lovely ambience, Very good value - enjoyable experience

An enjoyable meal to catch up with old friends . Service slower than usual.

Ery much appreciated quality of both food and service. We’ll be Back! 🌝

Staff were fabulous and the food was amazing highly recommend

It was beautiful, food is excellent and service so attentive....

Lovely restaurant, great food and staff. Good central location too.

The starter was fabulous.. (black pudding & pork meatballs), the mains were really good (truffled mushroom and spinach lasagne) but the top, cheesy part was really hard and overcooked? Your fork isn't capable of piercing through without some force, and i found some small, extremely hard... things in my food, the waitress just said it's bit from a star of the east... wasn't the best experience and was slightly off putting. The deserts were okay, i had the Lemon sorbet that was nice after about 2 mouthfuls and then you're left with a boring piece of ice that vaguely tastes like lemon, but the cheesecake was really nice... get that. The service was decent, although, there were 2 occasions the waitress had to return to the table as they forgot someone's order

Food was good Service was appalling start to finish Worst ever

Great place for an end of regatta dinner on a Sunday night.

Great visit here, lovely atmosphere, good service and delicious food, will definitely go back.

Everything great. Thank you for this experience which was tasty.

Lunch was lovely, but the only criticism I have is that there was still blood coming out of a piece of my venison, blood was over my mashed potatoes.......venison wasn't rested enough. Staff were lovely and very polite

Their Lunch set was reasonable and delicious. We had rump steak and seabass

Amazing dining experience as always. The staff were practically running they were so busy and yet were responsive to everyone’s needs and the food was delicious as were the drinks. By far the best restaurant in Inverness but the well deserved awards confirm that. Thank you Mustard Seed

Great location, buzzing with folk and excellent service. A favourite in Inverness.

Service was fantastic. Lovely cocktails. Food is good but not amazing, great location looking over the river.

Nice busy atmosphere in restaurant on a Wednesday evening. Staff were attentive and polite and food was excellent.

Food & service much improved since our last visit, so glad we gave it another visit.

I adore The mustard seed and fine there every evening when working in Inverness. The setting by the river, the sensational staff who greet me like a dear friend and the utterly delicious food call me back every time! Love the whole experience, this is the best restaurant in Inverness in my opinion

My husband only wanted soup. It cost over £8 but was a very small portion - not value for money! He questioned the price when paying but was told it was correct. My food was okay but i felt not to the usual standard

Excellent service. Food very tasty. Can't wait to come back.

Lovely staff and great service. A nice pre theatre meal.

Have been going to the Mustard Seed for many years. Disappointingly, it is no longer value for money as it is expensive for the quality of the food and service. Poor menu choice - especially the dessert menu. Last few times we have had the same waiting staff (older blonde lady with yellow glasses) and her attitude is atrocious. Looking for alternative places to eat in Inverness.

What a lovely meal we had. Warmly welcomed upon arrival, great service …. Oh and the food was super too 😀

Beautiful atmosphere, delicious food and a cozy fire. The perfect date night. Thank you

Its staff are extremely friendly, we had a lovely meal and a well decorated restaurant
