We ate dinner at this restaurant and it was packed with people, primarily Americans. It's essential that you have reservations. They were turning away people who showed up without reservations. Parking is difficult but not impossible to find.
Inside, the restaurant is modern. We were greeted by a waiter and shown to a table. I ordered the lamb burger and my wife ordered the wester ross salmon filet. Our meals came in around 15 minutes and looked great.
The burger came with chips and a small serving of special cole slaw. The salmon was served on a bed of mashed potatoes and kale, and then topped with Hollandaise sauce. We felt both meals were excellent. We would recommend this restaurant. Just be sure to make reservations weeks in advance.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 417242736May 29, 2023
Stellar seafood restaurant with great views of Portree. Seafood is super fresh and comes in many forms. The seafood platter is the best seller menu item, and I can completely understand why. You get about 6 different types of seafood in portions of 2 which are generous and delicious to eat with their artisan bread. They also have rotating seasonal specials, all of which are fresh and unique to establishment. Almost all of the food is locally sourced within the area.
Services is also great and seating is abundant. Reservations here are must, especially because of the accommodations frequent here for all meals. I will definitely be back here again when I am in the area.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nov 15, 2022
This was one of the best, if not the best, meals I've had in my life.
The smokiness of the added was a perfect balance to the mild white fish. The pinot grigio was the perfect complement.
The orange and vanilla pannacotta was creamy and the locally sourced berries were heavenly.
This place has great, attentive and friendly staff.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 29, 2022
Amazing local seafood! Me and my husband made reservations here while on vacation on the island. We were a little early so we got a drink and the bar next door while they figured out our reservation. The restaurant was cozy and the service was okay for how short staffed they seemed.
We ordered the seafood platter from the starter menu and were blown away! The platter included the most amazing smoked mussels, two kinds of salmon, smoked scallops, herring, and shrimp. Everything tasted so fresh and we loved the flavors. The board also came with delicious bread and fresh butter. For a main we opted to share the pork schnitzel after feasting on the seafood and it was quite good. The pork was fried well but still very tender and paired well with the goat cheese and beet salad. We also ordered the chocolate toffee cake for dessert which was amazing and came with a scoop of ice cream. Overall some of the best seafood I've had.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Lisa R.Navarre, FL48475305May 9, 2023
We were super lucky to get a reservation for the same night. They are shorthanded and a little slow but the ambience is great. The waiters were super nice guys. And the food was amazing. We got the seafood platter appetizer and it was huge. Everything on it was really good. We were full after that and we still had food coming. I had the sweet potato tagine which was good even though I was already stuffed. And my husband had fish and chips, which was giant! I couldn't resist a dessert menu, and even though I was ready to pop I had an amazing dessert. We also loved their drinks.

We were there for dinner and are extremely happy that we did. The service was wonderful; John our waiter was both knowledgeable about the food and very entertaining as well. Speaking of food, every course was fantastic. We had Cream of Cauliflower soup and they had to be the creamiest soup I've ever had in my life, it was like it had been whipped! for our main, Soy glazed chicken and then an extremely flavorful raspberry tart for dessert.

Our food was absolutely amazing here the two nights we ate here. We had the best meals and drinks. I will say, the service was a bit lackluster especially the first night. Unfortunately I think they are understaffed and it took forever for us to actually order, get drinks, & get food. Despite the service, we did have great food and the atmosphere is really nice!
They were also super accommodating for my gluten free (celiac disease) diet! Which I was very grateful for. I highly suggest eating here if you're staying in Portree!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - John J.Watkinsville, GA1322Oct 14, 2023
Reservations are essential and parking can be difficult. With a reservation we were seated quickly. Service was great and the staff very friendly and accommodating. The food is good, not great.
The duck starter was very good. It was a confit leg and a fritter. She isn't a fan of duck and I had to take it away from her so I could have some.
I had salmon with chive hollandaise which was heavy and far too peppery; it overpowered the flavor of the salmon. The potatoes and baby broccoli were quite good.
She had the lamb burger which was apparently chopped rather than ground. That, combined with a very crispy crust, made it difficult to cut since she didn't want the bread. The flavor was not bad, but a bit salty (no, she didn't add salt). Chips were very good.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Annie L.South San Francisco, CA0319727Sep 27, 2022
I had dinner at this popular restaurant where it is highly recommended to have reservation in advance. I was staying at the hotel the Bosville where this restaurant is located and was pleased that the hotel had reached out to me prior to my arrival to help me reserve a table. The service of both the hotel and the restaurant was excellent. I ordered a soup of today which was a squash soup that had a tint of curry and cumin taste to me. I wasn't sure that I liked it very much since I am not a curry fan but it was a great way to warm me up before the main course. I had the Atlantic cod that came with potatoes and vegetables, and would have rated it perfect had the cod was not a little too salty for my taste.
I came back for breakfast as it was included as part of the room. The server brought me a continental platter immediately after I was seated. For the cooked-to-order meal I had the Scottish breakfast, which came with haggis and an interesting potato scone that I thought was a savory pancake. The poached egg that I selected was nicely done so overall it was a very filling and enjoyable meal.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1
