I hear that the kitchen has changed hands since we last visited. It shows: food was very bland, over cooked and lacked any thought/seasoning. We are not tourists, but will not return till we hear good things again.

Food was excellent as always, however service was unusually pedestrian on this occasion. Took 3.5 hours from start to finish for just 3 courses. 45 minutes until we received our first drink!

We always go to the mustard for all our special occasions and are never disappointed! My husband and I went yesterday for lunch and the food was lovely, apart from the food I must say the mustard seed owners should be very proud of thier waiting servers who are very professional and polite and friendly

Didn't get wine with main meal so disappointed in staff levels not being able to match volume and speed seems to be the focus rather than quality service!

Service quite slow and poor, took ages to be served a drink, felt as though they were short staffed ( especially compared to our previous visit the month before). Food and atmosphere excellent as always.

a first return visit since lockdown. we had friends visiting who all enjoyed their evening. Somehow the noise level has improved! Or I had the best seat!! Quite a problem to solve with the high vaulted ceiling, bare stone work and metal chimneys A credit to Inverness!!

Restaurant was buzzing and very busy but the space catered well for the various groups . Service was excellent , good choices of food - both in daily specials and a la carte. Good wine list with decent house wines by the glass. They also do a special for early dining. . Food was very tasty and cooked well.

Arrived on time to a very busy restaurant & immediately taken to our table. Excellent service & food arriving in a timely manner. Only issue was an extremely loud table of 10 people close by but the waiter apologised for that (which he didn’t have to so we thought ‘a nice touch ‘). Will definitely have a meal there the next time we are in Inverness. Superb!

Had a lovely lunch with a friend. Great food, good service, but rather noisy in the restaurant. This could have been due to the position of our table-upstairs at the open side of the balcony.

The exemplary three course meal we had with our friends was accompanied with the finest of champagne and wine in the most relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. The staff were amazing and really were so kind as we were there nearly 3 hours and never gave the slightest indication of wanting us to leave despite the fact they’d long since stopped serving food. We can’t wait to return to the Mustard Seed and will urge others to go there whenever they’re in Inverness. If the Mustard Seed don’t get an award for their food and service then it’s a crying shame as they so deserve one.

Met on arrival by an extremely welcoming host who showed us to our table and introduced us to our waiting staff for the evening. Not rushed into making food decision, drinks ordered plus water which all arrived quickly. Food as always delicious and perfect temperature. The young lady who served our table was first class. Cannot wait until we get the chance to return. Top marks to all @ The Mustard Seed. Thank you.
