The Mustard Seed Restaurant

We had an early dinner booking due to booking at the last minute. The food and service were exceptional. Would definitely recommend.

Today Mustard Seed you fell well short of a grading, this originates back to the chef not checking the quality of food being served. Booked in for a special lunch have travelled over from Skye. The chicken main course was inedible, impossible to cut and wholly indigestible resulting in us having to part leave our main Course. The waiter could only apologise. I suspect others having the same would have encountered the same quality of food. Unfortunately Mustard Seed due the quality of food today your restaurant is not an eatery we could recommend to others.

The staff was kind and fun and the food was excellent. Good price point on wine. Great spot.

Fab food, great service and friendly staff. Well done Donna!

Lovely food and great service what's not to like. Excellent.

The staff was very friendly, but the food took quite a while to receive. We did have to wait about 10-15 minutes for our table with a reservation. Not a huge deal.

We visited for lunch and chose the steak option. On the upside the hot smoked salmon caesar salad was great as was the cinnamon apple crumble. Now to the mains; one was very good whilst the other was pretty awful. The steak knife didn't even cut through around half of the stake which was very disappointing. We were seriously overcharged (over £30 which we noticed having paid the bill and adding on the percentage tip, The overcharge was rectified but the tip proportion was not refunded nor was that offered. A disappointing visit this time. Previous visits have been good.

Great food and service! If you’re going to have haggis for a first time- this is a place to experience this taste😜

Delicious food and very good service. Loved the gin selections

Food was delicious, service was very good indeed - lovely, attentive waiting staff.

Wonderful menu, wonderful service. Our favorite meal while in Scotland!

Our dining experience at Mustard Seed was memorable. The food and service were outstanding. The monk fish and prawns fricassee was the meal highlight. Highly recommend.

Fab visit and perfect food. Couldn’t have had a better visit!!!

For the first time I found the menu did not ‘float my boat’. I usually find it hard to decide from the choice but on this occasion there wasn’t anything that really made it hard to choose. Otherwise great service from all staff members.

Delicious food lovely river view good service beautiful decor. Very enjoyable evening

Very welcoming - good table - friendly pleasant staff - good menu variety & very tasty to boot - delicious dessert & coffee complete with Scottish tablet on the side- always a pleasure to dine at the Mustard Seed - our guests enjoyed it very much too - great place for great food Thank you

As always lovely lunch great service and atmosphere. Reasonable prices

The food was amazing we had the monkfish snd chicken both tasted amazing and very filling. My husband had the apple sorbet and I had the cheeseboard finished off the meal sublimely. Would highly recommend.

Loved it. Really lovely place to take my friends. Thank you

The service was good and our table was ready when we arrived!

Kitchen is way too loud for a fine dining experience. Sounded like a NYC meat market. The older female floor manager comes off as quite rude.

An amazing experience! The diner was excellent 👌 I recommend it !

Amazing as always. Our favourite restaurant in Inverness. Great value too for this quality of food.

Do not cater for allergies in their lunch set starter and main menu. Also didn’t take money off the set price even though I only was able to have a main

First Visit to the Mustard Seed & certainly not disappointed. Everything from Start to Finish was lovely & plenty of food. Really like the fact that you do an Early Evening Menu as well, plenty choice & caters for everyone. Definitely be coming back in the near future & will highly recommend you to Friends & Family for sure.

Lovely meal, we had the two course lunch with a dessert too. Food was amazing, service prompt and staff attentive. Plenty of choice in the lunch menu for me being gluten free.

Excellent service, excellent food (lots of gluten free options too), the early dinner set menu was a bargain. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely staff, welcoming and attentive without being intrusive. Good choice of food, well presented and delicious,

Food up to the usual great standard, ambience really nice, one of the table staff was very abrupt and handed plates to diners instead of placing them, she could do with some training!

Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch at the Mustard Seed, as did the friend I was with (a pre-birthday treat for her!). It is one of my favourite restaurants in Inverness and it never fails to impress. Great food, good value and very pleasant staff.

Overall my group found the food quality and taste to be poor, and the service spotty.

One always has a nice meal at The Mustard Seed. The staff is very nice and attentive. i

The food was very good. The table we had at the right of the front door was a bit drafty (wind from the front door). Our waitress was in a big hurry. She raced around which was a bit unsettling. The rest of the staff was great.

We picked this restaurant to get dinner whilst hanging around in Inverness between our trains, as we were on a long journey. We had looked on the website and were attracted by the economical Early Evening menu and other menu choices, and because it seemed to be a nice independent local business. On arrival, we were disappointed by the lack of vegetarian options which were actually available. In the end, we did have a decent meal, in a nice atmosphere, and were not hungry on our subsequent journey.

Fantastic food and really friendly staff we had a superb meal and a great experience. Highly recommended

We went for lunch because it was my friend’s birthday. I let them know when I booked…they played the birthday song for others and made a fuss…. For us we were stuck in a corner and the waitress tried to rush us through our lunch. Won’t go back - clearly they have enough business

My son has visited the restaurant in the past and recommended a booking for myself and my partner. It was a most enjoyable experience and everything was of the highest standard.

The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious!

We had a lovely family lunch. Our server was friendly, engaging with our children and having fun but efficient doing their job. Perfect!!

Excellent service and delicious food. Never fails to please - highly recommend.

Food was fabulous, great service , lovely friendly staff .

Same has always beautiful food cooked to perfection great buzz great service

Lovely food and very good service - as ever! First time we have been seated downstairs - it is perhaps less noisy upstairs but it was a busy time! Cannot fault the restaurant and staff!

Staff were really friendly and checked back on things. Food excellent.

Excellent food and service, highly recommended. Great atmosphere. Price is also not so high.

The service was incredible and the food excellent, thank you

Although extremely busy the staff were very friendly & the service was also very good. The meals were fabulous & reasonably priced. Would have no hesitation in highly recommending The Mustard Seed - one of the best meals we’ve had so far in our Scottish holiday!

Brilliant meals. Enjoyed each course. Staff were very attentive. Thanks.

We've been a number of times to this popular restaurant. Busy, with friendly, efficient staff. Nice variety of food on the set menu, tasty and good value. Fish perfectly cooked.

Wonderful food. Waiter was not as friendly as we expected in Scotland. Certainly lived up to our expectations in all other areas! Book with confidence.
