A sunny Sunday evening at the Mustard Seed. Dined off the early evening menu which was really tasty. Staff in good form and looking forward to our next meal there.

Important Update:

Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

Location and ambience are fabulous! Restaurant was busy and staff seemed a bit unhinged. Ordered wine and the wrong bottle was brought to the table. We insisted it was incorrect. Upon checking they determined the wine we ordered was not available. Ordered a different bottle. Was surprised at the “oh well”, no concern or apology from the staff. Salmon and cod excellent. Mashed potatoes a bit dry. You have a beautiful spot! Keep it up and remember that attention to detail is important! All in all an enjoyable evening!!

We were there on Wednesday 2 April having been on previous visits to Inverness. The food was good, as was the service, although a starter was delivered before the wine, which had to be requested again. The only disappointment was that our upstairs seat was a little uncomfortable due to a window/door being ajar - obviously to suit the people seated there. As we could see no vacant tables around us when ordering our food we did not request another table. Decided to leave and go somewhere warmer for coffee.

It was just ok. Was a bit concerned about the chicken some pink bits and felt it needed cooked longer as very rubbery so left a good bit of it.
