Food and service very good, but not the best table and issues with the bill. Easily resolved but left with a feeling of disappointment

From beginning to end, it was absolutely amazing. The service was incredible, and the food alone was worth the trip to Scotland...also, Scotland was worth the trip to Scotland!

Important Update:

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

We booked for a birthday surprise lunch. Our table overlooked the river and the service was excellent. We were spoilt for choice from the menu and weren’t disappointed. The surprise moved to a different level when the cake arrived at our table. We’re already planning our next visit

The overall experience was great; friendly staff, good service, pleasant ambience and generally great food. We had a table near a window so could see the river which was nice. However, my Highland rump steak was disappointing as it was quite tough. The veg and sauce were fine but the meat didn’t live up to expectation. It was cooked medium-rare as requested but just a bit leathery. My wife’s food was really nice !

Had a lovely meal in the Mustard Seed today . I happened to mention it was my husband’s birthday, to our surprise they brought ice cream with a birthday sparkler in it wishing him a happy birthday . The gesture was much appreciated. The staff are always friendly , attentive , but not overdone . If we go out to eat it’s always The Mustard Seed . Great food great place to eat .

From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, the whole evening was excellent - from the staff, to the atmosphere (restaurant was busy) and especially the food 10/10. Special thanks to the waiter who arranged a “surprise” for my husband after I had mentioned it was a special birthday.

Second time visit in 3 days and the food, service and atmosphere were superb again. It reminds us of a restaurant in the mountains in France. Lovely central fire gardens gives a really cosy feel. Lovely people looking after us as well. Great restaurant.
