So glad a friend from the area recommended to book a table here while I am visiting. Very busy but great ambiance. Excellent service and the food was delicious. The vies of the river at sunset was an added bonus.
The food was excellent and the staff were super lovely! A really great evening all round!
Starter arrived too quickly. Main fine. Many different staff served us. drinks took ages to come and arrived after our starter.
Meal was great but it was hard to get water.
Amazing food and very attentive service. Beautiful views, Highly recommend
Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.
Excellent restaurant with a very helpful team of people, very enjoyable
Lovely meal again and the service was fantastic as always is
Food was very good, service was a bit slow though.
Wonderful food with friendly/attentive service. What more do you need!

Lovely 2 course lunch we both enjoyed, with excellent service from great staff, hopefully be back again soon
Lovely food, as always, and service really good - thank you
Myself and a friend visited the restaurant for a pre-theatre meal. 2 courses for £19.95, which we both thouroughly enjoyed. Big shout out to Brian whose service was impeccable.
We were really looking forward to eating at the Mustard Seed but unfortunately the food was quite poor. We both decided to select the Sirloin Streak special and both meals were below standard. The steak was full of gristle and tough and the roast potatoes were cold. For over £30 this in not acceptable. One meal included a small section of kitchen foil. The waiter handled it perfectly and told the chef immediately which was good. We also received £10 off the bill because of this issue. Finally we decided to choose the cheese board to share for our dessert and unfortunately one portion of cheese was unpalatable. It actually made me feel unwell. We will never return to this restaurant and would not recommend to any of our colleagues or friends. Many thanks Alison
Return customer. Excellent food. Lunch menu brilliant value for money. Lots of choice. Staff friendly and quick. One of our top picks for Inverness.
Food was ok but not startling - appreciate the restaurant is called the Mustard Seed but nonetheless the honey mustard sauce combined with chutney completely destroyed any other taste sensation in the cheese tart. Hake was OK but under seasoned. Still reasonable value for 2 courses at under £18 and staff were very pleasant, but just disappointing in the flavour front.
Very enjoyable lunch. The food and service were very good.
Had a most enjoyable lunch as always. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent value.
Food fantastic, highly recommended. Will definitely be back Thank you
We enjoyed our lunch, view of the river and had an excellent waitress
We book each year at this time and really enjoy
We loved the setting and the food. The service was outstanding. We will visit again on our next trip to Inverness. We enjoyed the special Mothers’ Day menu and drinks.
Attentive & friendly service, lovely food. Unfortunately a few of the wines on their drinks menu were not available.
Heerlijke lunch gehad. Keuze uit verschillende voor- en hoofdgerechten. Vlees, vis of groente.
Ristorante buonissimo super in centro an Inverness ! Prenotazione facile, consigliato
Loved the food etc but the noise was loud but I expect that was just the building acoustics. Overall we loved our experience and will return.
There was a really nice atmosphere in the restaurant, the food was excellent and the service good.
Not much to say! First class food and amazing service, as usual!!!
Service was good,starter was very tasty. The main courses of chicken was slightly dry and the rump steak was fatty and not juicy enough.
Excellent food and great service. Attention to detail and really nice atmosphere. Wine was great. Did etape lochness and this meal finished a great weekend. Highley reccomended. Thanks
It took over an hour to get our meal after we ordered and the best part of the meal was the salad. Both of our meat entrees were very tough. Will not return.
Lara was excellent Vert friendly and helpful Mustard Seed is always first class
Well priced menu with great choice, excellent food and service. Highly recommended.
Friendly greeting on arrival, staff were very attentive even tho the restaurant was full. Food was full of flavour and beautifully presented, excellent value for money, definitely visit again
Great food nice ambiance. Great view of the river. I ordered from the specials and they were amazing. My wife had the salmon and it was great.
Staff were brilliant, Food was superb just a brilliant dining experience.
Relaxed atmosphere. Attentive staff - just the right level of attention. Food was excellent.
Great food and service and excellent atmosphere. Will definitely return
The mustard seed is consistently good and always feel excellent value. First and only time being slightly disappointed. Ordered The Hake on a kedgeree which was not good, (suspect the chef hadn’t tasted it). The kedgeree needed stock and rice was slightly underdone and watery but with an odd oily afterfeel. Hoping kedgerree cooked in butter and not veg oil. Otherwise good. Would love more exciting options for children who are vegetarian. I like that there is proper food options for children (salmon and veg) in addition to the bland fried options on smaller portion menus.
Food excellent. Staff friendly,but waited over an hour for food to arrive. Restaurant busy as usual but never waited so long before.
Excellent food and service, great menu choice and fantastic atmosphere.
Really descent and everything I had hoped for, thanks also to the great staff.
The service, food and wine were 2nd to none, would highly recommend it.
Fantastic place for lunch. Everything perfect. Great food and atmosphere
Stingy starter portions for the price Tough over cooked steak Flavours/sauce too similar across multiple dishes Too many dishes served with mash Mediocre service
Greeted promptly, pate did not have enough mini oatcakes so asked for additional bread which seemed a big deal, fig and pear salad was good, the duck special was very good but the truffle mashed potatoes overwhelmed it a bit, the lemon sole was a bit fussy, but was enjoyed.
Food was excellent. Lovely warm, comfortable setting on a horrible night. However, staff could have been more knowledgeable about drinks, particularly gin selection. At times the service was overly officious and even felt that staff were passive aggressive in their approach - not the previous experience at the Mustard Seed. Maybe a bad night but didn’t feel that staff were happy in their work 🤔
We visited the Mustard Seed on our honeymoon trip to Scotland and had an excellent experience! The food, service, and atmosphere were wonderful. We do highly recommend making a reservation in advance to ensure you get a table!
Really enjoyed our lunch. It was good value for money
First visit for me. Loved it. Staff lovely and super attentive. Will definitely book again and recommend to all our friends. Thank you
