When we go out for a meal we joke by saying "this one counts" or "this one doesn't count". This one counts. The Greek lady there (manageress?) went above and beyond. Ευχαριστώ.
Good food, service and value for money. Staff were pleasant, helpful and ordered us a taxi. Would recommend.
Food was really good, the waitress serving us the majority of the time was great but the waitress who brought the starter, the waitress we asked about the desserts and the waiter we queried the liqueur coffee with….not so good! Made to feel like we were being stupid and after having visited the Mustard Seed for in excess of 20 years albeit not regularly, hasn’t left a very good feeling. The standard of food has always been fantastic but not so sure about the serving staff just now
Lovely view, great service, excellent food and they stuck a sparkler in some complimentary ice cream for my wife for her birthday 😊
My friend and I really enjoyed our lunch,once again a great experience. Food lovely and staff are great.
Once again, great dining experience with excellent service from the staff!
Catriona booked us in and nothing was too much trouble. Adam was overseeing our meal which was delicious. Angelina gave excellent service. Thank you to the team at The Mustard Seed for another amazing meal.
All staff & ambience 1st class. A little disappointed with food. Wife had fish pie which wasn't very hot and had very little fish. Roasted veg was not roasted 8 - 10.
Great food and service. Very popular restaurant so book ahead.
Staff, service and food 1st class. Early evening menu is very good value. Would recommend a visit. Greek lady (front of house) sorry, never got her name, was very welcoming and friendly. Will be back. Thanks 😊
Portions were smaller than expected, my main the seabass was disappointing due to it appearing to be “wet” as if cooked in water and not as flaky as it should be can’t explain any further and no jokes about it being from the sea 🤣. I go for seabass a lot in restaurants if it’s on the menu and was the worst I’ve tried. Dessert was amazing though and big portion (fudge cheesecake). Thankfully it was lunch menu of 2 courses for £17. Staff super nice and the atmosphere lovely. We’ve been here before and like it so returned and probably will again and try something different.
The food was amazing and the service was excellent. We did not wait long at all for our meal .
Most enjoyable lunch today. Happy that they accept well behaved dogs. Good food and friendly helpful staff
Good food. Service good especially as it was very busy
Service not the best. It is usually much better. Long wait times for ordering and for food. The food was good though
Was able to get a late seating in fairly short notice. Food was good. Service prompt and friendly. We felt, however, a bit rushed with the adjacent tables being somewhat noisily prepped for the following day’s service.
Beautiful setting, beautiful food and fantastic attentive staff - this is our second visit and we will definitely be back whenever we are in Inverness
The food was amazing as always, staff were lovely and the atmosphere was so nice.
Lovely staff, good atmosphere and good food what more can you ask for 😀
Great place to eat lovely atmosphere, staff and food amazing 🩷
Loved the parsnip soup of the day last night - brilliant atmosphere and quick service. Made our long day out super cosy.
Very good value early evening meal with good quality food and excellent service. Little sparkler surprise for my wife’s birthday. Only slight negative was not dog friendly in evening
Wonderful food , staff very attentive as we were celebrating a special anniversary. Complimentary drinks , ice cream sparkler , can't fault the service .We will be back soon . Excellent value for money .
As always lovely to b there. Never disappoints. Staff, food, and ambience always great. Will b back.
Had a very nice lunch. Staff were very good and very attentive good value for money
Leuk, gezellig restauarant aan de Ness. We hebben heerlijk gegeten.
Everything was very great from start to finish, no complaints
Loved the food and the overall friendly atmosphere. Every time I visit Inverness I book the Mustard Seed!
Great efficient service in comfortable surroundings and brilliant food. Magic!
Excellent food in a lovely atmosphere. We enjoyed every bite!
Probably one of the worse experiences in any restaurant I've eaten in. Food was decent, so that wasn't really the issue. Service, well that leaves a lot to be desired. We were sat at our table, the host was very friendly, he should have served us. A couple of minutes our main server came over, gave us some bread and took our drink our order. My wife asked for a mocktail, the server said it was a raspberry and passion fruit drink. My wife said she would have that then she said it it is either raspberry or passion fruit, well that's not how she put it. My wife said she would have passion fruit. I ordered a coke, the server said a diet coke. I repeated no, a coke please. Drinks came a few minutes later, no surprise really that we got a diet coke and my wife got a raspberry mocktail, which is no surprise as I felt out server didn't listen. I didn't say anything as it's not a big issue. The server then snatched our bread basket. Our starters came out, and as I mentioned the food dishes were nice enough but not outstanding. We then got our mains, no check back from anyone. As one of the better reputable restaurants town. I'd at least expect a check back. But our server,listening to her at other tables not just ours her service skills was so poor, very abrupt and not really listening to guests. We were offered coffee and desserts at least but we were served so badly we declined, she brought the bill over and as we were using a voucher to pay for our meal as it was a gift. It covers the meal, she then snapped ,no feeling as it was an inconvenience or cheap us paying with the voucher. We were in the restaurant at our booking time of 5pm and we were out at 5.50. I've never felt so rushed or poorly served in a restaurant like I was at this booking. My son got these gift vouchers for my wife and as a Christmas gift. We've actually told him if he's going to do that again please don't get us mustard seed restaurant vouchers again. We went be back! Just for reference I think our servers name is Andrea.
Food and service were delicious and amazing. It was lovely
Food and service very good. Would definitely visit again. Thank you
Delighted with lunch menu, ambiance and staff.My fav restaurant in Highlands
The food was great. Service was very good and the restaurant experience overall was excellent
Wonderful. Had the early dinner menu, then cheesecake and some wine. Great service and lovely ambiance
Booked for my step-dad’s birthday and had a lovely meal - food is always impeccable. Service from Lara was amazing, especially the sparkler candle that was added to his dessert. Thank you!
We attended for our wedding anniversary (3rd time so far, with many more visits planned!) and as always, the food, staff and atmosphere were top notch. Would highly recommend booking a table as opposed to being a walk-in, as it is extremely popular
Food was great, staff was great. Lighting was dim so it was a struggle to read the menu but otherwise, a great night. 😊
We love this place - we are regular visitors and it has never disappointed!
We haven't been for a while and were glad to find the Mustard Seed was still a great place to eat.
