"I booked the Dornoch Castle Hotel for a special lunch to celebrate my father's 88th birthday (I noted this on my booking form). I booked the restaurant on the back of the website which showed a sample Al la Carte menu from April. When we arrived the restaurant was completely empty and the menu bore no resemblance to the one on the website it consisted mostly of fish and chip and burgers not a la carte! (and was at a completely cheaper price point than an a la carte menu). The burgers were exceptionally dry, there was no acknowledgment that the occasion had been flagged as a special occasion and when I mentioned to, I think the Manager, my disappointment in the menu I was told that there are three menus on the website. I have looked several times since at the website and I am afraid that is not true all that is shown in the April a la carte menu! The meal spoiled what was to be a celebratory family day out having travelled up to Dornoch from Edinburgh. I would not recommend anyone to visit this restaurant!"
