This must have been at least our 15/16th visit and we solved it as usual. Booked to go back in 10 days time - different menu by then, but it is always great.

We visit the Mustard Seed quite frequently with various friends and always recommend it to visitors. This was just a birthday visit as a couple so we were seated in the ‘annexe’ area to the side of the entrance foyer where tables for two can be readily fitted. Unfortunately this meant an icy blast every time the door opened and led to a very chilly experience; my wife ate with her coat wrapped around her! The food and service were great as always but we missed the ambience and comfort of the main dining area and don’t plan on booking as a couple again…just in case.

Great lunch with friendly attentive service. Even offered an umbrella on leaving as the weather was so bad! Highly recommend.

I have been visiting the Mustard Seed since 2006, and indeed have often taken clients there. I have never had a bad meal, or poor service and this occasion was no different. The Early Evening/Pre-Theatre menue offers great value and as usual the place was extremely busy with anyone turning up with out a booking having no luck. Service was friendly, quick and efficient; the food was up to its usual excellent standard and we had no issues until I tried to pay. None of their card readers would work, apparently they'd had issues for a couple of days, but this was the worst. Taking cash out from an ATM may not have been an option for everyone, but fortunately we just happened (very unusually) to have sufficient on us to cover the cost. What would have been nice, and prevents me for giving top marks on this occasion, would have been a small gesture such as a free coffee, or even just an extra stamp in the loyalty card, to offset the inconvenience and frustration.

The service was excellent and the food amazing. When we told the waitress we were celebrating our sons 21st birthday she arrived at our table with a fountain candle in a small tub of ice cream just before our desserts arrived. This was a wonderful surprise. Thank you

This was our second time to the Mustard Seed. As with the first time, we were not disappointed. The location and atmosphere are and were phenomenal. The wait-staff were superb as was the food. The restaurant is very reasonably priced. Overall, Should we return to Inverness, Scotland, The Mustard Seed will definitely be a must visit location. Moran Taing !!! Slainte !!!

I had an early evening booking. Excellent meal, wine, service, atmosphere and welcome. My only negative was the drought caused by people coming to try to book. If it is likely to be a cold evening ask for a table away from the door …. I gather upstairs is ideal. I was eating alone and felt absolutely welcomed and comfortable.

Dinner and dessert were excellent and well priced. My only complaint is all the emails from Aqua do said we had a 8:30 pm reservation . At 5 pm I received an email stating at 7:30 pm- and that’s what the restaurant had. Would have missed it had I not checked email at 7 pm

We were quite excited to try the Mustard Seed, but sadly, were disappointed. My friends dish (she had the gnocchi) was cold and awful (not prepared as described), and mine was so salty I could not eat it. They were very busy, so perhaps it was an off night, but we were not impressed with the food. The staff, on the other hand, was wonderful. We let them know about our food and they did everything they could to make it right. That was impressive! Based on how they handled our bad meals, I’d definitely be willing to try them again.
