"We had a reservation at the restaurant but upon arrival they took a while to find the booking. We had a window table overlooking the river although the dining area was a bit cramped as the conservatory was fractionally too narrow to allow free passage with waiting staff coming and going at a busy time. The waiter who served us was very good as was the waitress who brought us our wine, very personable. We we expecting the conventional menu so we're a bit disappointed when it was a restricted Sunday menu which wasn't clear on the website. We shared a mussels starter which was sublime. Complimentary fresh bread with an interesting homemade butter was served. The tarragon chicken with green beans and fries was flavoursome and light. The fish and chips were good with a very light, perfectly cooked batter. The dish also had peas and tartare sauce. We also had a Scottish cheeseboard, which was substantial to share and had a good selection of breads, crackers, celery, and grapes. There was pickle too, but we didn't try this as we aren't big fans of brown pickle. The dish was well presented on a wooden chopping board but was a tad cold from the fridge and could have benefitted from being left out a bit earlier to get to room temperature thereby enhancing the flavour and taste. When I asked about the name of one of the cheeses, the waiter very kindy brought out a whole cheese to show me its name and provenance (Old Smokey Isle of Kintyre). The service was attentive but not rushed. The menu had a choice of two or three course options for a set price, which represented great value for money. In the main, the restaurant was clean and had nice decor. We would definitely return to try the fuller menu. There are only a few quality restaurants in Inverness but this is certainly one of them and that mussel dish is a must!"

Great vegetarian ceasar salad and truffle Mac cheese for lunch (between 12pm and 2pm).
Madison
Great food and service. We ordered the chicken supreme and the steak and both were delicious. Lovely view of the river as well.
Maurizio
Ate very well. A quick lunch but the place was truly up to par for the money spent. Excellent view of the river that flows a few meters away.
Alain
Very good restaurant! On the other hand, the staff at the reception of the restaurant and the terrible service. Very inappropriate attitude towards customers, shifty glances... we were very embarrassed.

A beautiful hotel .Such a shame about it's rip off prices for drinks.2 Glasses of wine £16.50 !Come on guys that is daylight robbery!! Would have appreciated a reply from them to justify how they charge such astronomical prices !!

Quite a limited menu, the only thing I could choose was fish and chips but I know I'm quite fussy. That said it was one of the best tasting meals I've had. It wasn't a cheap meal, but considering the quality of food and service it was a fair price, and I still left a tip too. I would definitely take my partner back to give her a treat.

Due to some of the recent negative reviews, we were apprehensive at first, but we are glad we gave it a chance! Our meal for two was great. The sauce of the mussel appetizer tasted delicious, I wanted more bread to eat it all. Our fish main courses, salmon and a fish and chips, we're hot and tasty. The sticky pudding desert was excellent. Our service was also great. Waitress was attentive, and everything came out fast and hot.

We were staying at the nearby Glen Mohr Hotel, arrived late from the Isle of Skye and entered the restaurant by 8:25pm, without a reservation. There appeared to be plenty of empty tables but we were refused service, told there were no available tables. We left, noticed there were at 10 empty tables, then went back in. The manager looked us straight in the face and said all these tables were booked with 8:30pm reservations. He advised us to go elsewhere as restaurants closed at 9pm. We found a restaurant nearby, finished a quick dinner by 9:15, and when walking back by the Waterside Restaurant, saw it was completely empty, dark, no one in sight. The manager blatantly lied to us. If they don't...
