    High-end restaurant as part of the hotel Cuillin Hill outside Portree on Isle of Skye. Delicious…read morefood, excellent presentation. Nice view even on a rainy day. Service not the best (for such a top establishment). Not attentive. Even worse, no apologies when there was plastic in the dish! That is a major fail to be honest. Waiter said he'd talk to kitchen and never came back. When the bill came we had to tell this different waiter about the whole episode. Again no apology but when she came back with a revised bill she quietly took the charge off (so that dish was free). Fine but why such bad handling of this whole incident?

    Wow! This is as simply one of the best meals we have had in a very long time! The view, no pun…read moreintended is outstanding, and the service is just as wonderful, but the food! Emma was our server and was warm; delightful and very helpful with my gluten allergy; and Rebecca, the manager, was lovely, and helped us earlier in the day to arrange transport from Sconser. For the meal .... Well! We started with the crab, which was flavorful and very fresh. My husband saw the table next to us served the Curried Cauliflower soup, and had to try it. Super!! The entrees were exceptional; I had a lovely, thick piece of cod, with a beautiful butter and lemon sauce with grape tomatoes, and they subbed out a stacked potato dish, due to my gluten allergy, and it was delicious. My husband had the scallops with pork belly, and while both were fantastic, the pork belly was truly amazing. We also had a side of the seasonal vegetables, which were crisp and very fresh. If you are on Skye, don't miss The View!

    ~*~*~ pre-covid review ~*~*~…read more In a tiny little village, an hour drive away from the biggest town on the isle of Skye, there's this little gem that is Michelin-rated, but really just looks like it's in somebody's house next to a small fishing village. It was one of the best seafood meals I've ever had in my life, which is huge because I grew up by the sea and had some of the freshest seafood growing up. The menu looks quaint -- you get a 3-course or a 5-course meal, at a pretty reasonable price. I've travelled too far to get here, so of course I opted for as much food as I can get. We started with some bites -- fried smelt with aioli, and some bread with smoked fish butter. Then came the first course, "soup and a sandwich". Wow -- it was the best chowder I've had, along with the best grilled cheese with crab... the mister was practically crying with joy; it was his favourite comfort food, just upgraded 100000x. We would've no regrets going home just after this course. But there's more to come! We had three expressions of scallop. So fresh, and such deliciousness! We then moved on to lobster and bay prawns, and lastly of the savory dishes, the monkfish with asparagus. I'm normally not a fan of monkfish, but here, it was expertly prepared, and tasted so delicate with the asparagus and cream sauce. Dessert was great as well. The clootie dumpling soufflé was just scrumptious, whereas the assorted desserts had just about all the things -- chocolate, sherbet, candied sugar and cream. I'm just glad I had a chance to visit this part of the world, and that I took some time to come to this little restaurant. It was unforgettable, and worth every single bite.

    We had a special dinner here. We booked a few months out via email, and we're glad we did as we…read morewouldn't have wanted to miss this great dinner. It was a fixed local seafood tasting menu and the preparations were great. The service was warm and friendly. The space only has a few tables with scenic views of the water.

    There is little wonder why this small dining space is so incredibly popular. Local mussels, fresh…read morecaught sole and isle greens for salad are just a few highlights that ensure the presence of the place here. A focus on using ingredients within a small radius and delectable preparations make this a hidden gem in the town of Portree. The team who works here is absolutely incredible. When talking about working hard, this is the definition of it. Hopefully some of the staffing challenges they currently face get addressed to provide more consistent service for guests and a less hectic experience for the crew. So, book early, get the trout porridge, the delectable focaccia, some Pommes Anna and fill in the rest with freshest seafood. Happiness will undoubtedly persist from there.

From the exceptionally perfect service to the beautiful location to the world class tasting menu - it hits it out of the park. These dishes don't just look good, they taste amazing as well and each bite makes you want to try more. They are also VERY accommodating to requests - it's a seafood heavy menu but my dining partner doesn't eat Seafood and they were willing to swap things around with notice. That just doesn't happen in most high end tasting menu environments.
