Our regular go to when we hit the city from Skye. And our favourite restaurant in Inverness. Top class food and good wines. Recommend Ardgay venison and Amarone wine. Followed by sticky toffee pudding (aka WTF STF), cheese and chasers of Lagavulin 16 & Glenfiddich 18. Yum…

It was a delightful experience dining in the Mustard Seed. It's a local haunt I'd like to be visiting more than I do, and perhaps in 2024 I will manage a few more visits! :)

We were a table of four and were eating from the Christmas set menu We all had the prawn starter and turkey main . The starter had stop much fish and we could not taste the small prawns . The main did not have enough roast potatoes , not enough veg and no bread sauce . Our table spent £200 and none of us feel it was worth it at all .

enjoyed our visit with excellent food however the table location was not good as we were positioned in a very drafty corridor making our visit very uncomfortable and although we were moved overall the top floor was on the cold and drafty

Ate from the early evening dinner menu as we were heading elsewhere for 7.00. Absolutely outstanding value at £19.95 for two courses. A good selection of dishes ensures there’s something for everyone. Chicken Tenders starter and Sea Bass main were really good followed by great coffee and lovely Scottish Tablet! Braw!

The restaurant was very noisy & busy. The service was ok but not enough staff to attend all the very busy tables. Food was ok but venison was over cooked & the sauce was too strong & heavy. This was brought to the waitress attention & complimentary desserts were kindly offered. Don’t think I wound come back for a romantic dinner for 2, it’s better suited to a group dinner, as more a bistro vibe.
