We last visited The Mustard Seed about 6 years ago (we're not local), though it seemed much the same as before. The venue was packed, busy and bustling. Despite that, service was quick, efficient and friendly. The food was good. We shared a fishcake starter which was very tasty, followed by mushroom and spinach tortellini with toasted seeds and truffle oil. The flavours were delicious, but it was quite rich and creamy and would possible have suited being a starter size portion, as by the end we felt very full, even though it wasn't a huge portion. Also, it might have benefitted from a few wild mushrooms served on top, as the mushroom filling in the tortellini got a bit lost in the creamy, truffle-oily sauce. For dessert we shared an apple crumble with ice cream, which was very nice. Service was good throughout, but at the end it fell off a little. The restaurant was starting to empty out and staff were busy clearing, tidying and preparing for the next day. We fancied having a coffee and whisky to end the meal, but after about 15 minutes of waiting (we were up on the balcony area so catching someone's eye was tricky), we went off the idea, so when someone came to the table we just ordered the bill. Overall, though, the experience was a positive one.
Great choice at amazing value for money would definitely return
We had wonderful food and great service. Thank you so much.
Table waiting for us. Food and service was great. Lunch menu offers a good choice
A lovely warm friendly restaurant. Staff were attentive and polite. Starter and main courses were excellent both in presentation and taste. Small issue with delay between courses but worth the wait and they did apologise for that. One small downside was the desserts. Slight anticlimax to the meal as both the cheesecake and the crumble lacked taste and were basically boring lacking refinement. However this was really a minor issue as the first two courses more than compensated. Definitely will return.
Good service excellent food & value for money. Will return soon.
Food and service 5 Star, would definitely recommend. Will certainly revisit
Our first visit, but it won't be our last. Incredibly busy, but the staff were attentive and the food was great.
Fantastic service and amazing food yet again. Another brilliant visit.
Excellent food, friendly and hard working staff. Very focused on what was happening. Will visit next time we are here
Everything was very good except the fish (smoked mackerel and salmon medium quality)
Quality good. Great service. Nice surroundings and good choice of wine
great food and service. the mustard seed is consistently good which is no mean feat
From start to finish it was brilliant. First class food and terrific service. Have been many times and it is always the same cannot wait to go back again when we are staying in Inverness
Perfect setting,atmosphere, food and service.Love visiting this restaurant when in Inverness.
Excellent venue for friends or by yourself earth when we arrived
Absolutely beautiful restaurant. Meal was amazing and the staff were so attentive. We will definitely be back and recommend to our friends
Good range of choice. Efficient staff and very helpful with wine choice. Nice touch to bring bread and butter before meal. The monkfish curry was billed as being with stir fried veg. The veg wasn’t too much in evidence. There was some, but mixed with the sauce. A tiny bit more rice would have been appreciated. The duck was excellent.
Fabulous service… Fabulous food… Great menu…. Great atmosphere… highly recommend…
On a whistle stop visit to Inverness, we decided to treat ourselves to lunch. The Mustard Seed was absolutely the best choice. The restaurant was cosy and quirky, the service excellent and food to die for. It was indeed a lovely treat. And excellent value to boot!

Love mustard seed, great food and service. Loving the lunch offer.
My meal and experience were nothing short of perfection. I had the smoked salmon samosa, the venison, and the cheesecake. Every dish was beyond my expectations. Thank you for a meal I’ll remember long after I leave Inverness.
Raw veg , cold haggis, staff very friendly. Quality control needed.
