Thoroughly enjoyed our meal, very good efficient service. Only negative feedback the Greek waitress was “pushy” , we tried to interact with her at the end of our meal but she wasn’t interested!

Mustard Seed offers decent food, particularly on their early evening menu with highlights like the black pudding and blue cheese bon bons. However, the service fell short of expectations, with the waitress appearing overworked and not attentive to providing a positive dining experience. It might be worth trying again, but perhaps at a less busy time or with adjusted expectations for service.

The best value, quality of the food and service in Inverness at any time of the year. You must book in advance or you will be very disappointed when they turn you away!

Important Update:

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

Been going here for at least 15 years and I've not had a single issue with any food, drink or aspect of the service from the staff. The staff are always very professional and friendly and can't do enough for you. Highly recommended.

Visit was great seated on time and waitress came over quickly to offer bread /water The only down point was that my pork loin was quite fatty so was a little bit disappointed apart from that the whole meal for both of us was great 😃

We traveled up from Edinburgh, first experience in the Mustard Seed. We were not disappointed, the quality of food and service was excellent, especially the home made cheese cake (5 star). We will return!!!!! Dawn & Aly Stewart 9.2.24

Usually very good but soup had to be returned as it was lukewarm - main was ok - coffee came before dessert & again had to be returned as cold - they said the person making the coffee was reasonably new to the job but that’s surely where adequate training should come into play for him before being launched into pole position- not really fair to pin the blame on him - in fairness they did make another one & did not charge for the 1st one but we could see our hot drinks were ready on the counter for a few minutes before they came to us - our overall experience was disappointing in comparison to other visits we have made - we felt very rushed throughout - it’s a lovely setting - good ambience & the staff always very helpful friendly and accommodating but on this occasion it just didn’t work for us which was a shame because it’s always previously been our default choice for a special occasion dinner

A beautiful restaurant with warm and attentive staff. The atmosphere was cosy and exactly what we needed on a rainy Monday. Had the roast chicken breast with potatoes and bacon cream sauce and it was perfectly tender and succulent with balanced seasoning. Staff were also lovely with our baby. Will definitely be back again!
