The interior is very upscale - easily the fanciest place in the very tiny village of Plockton. The menu looked inspired and seafood oriented. Because I hadn't tried any Scottish sourced beef yet on the trip, I made the mistake of ordering the aged Scottish ribeye and then added on the cracked pepper sauce with whiskey. This was £20 plus £3 for the sauce! The ribeye was cut too thin, to begin with, so wasn't cooked properly by default. The cracked pepper sauce had no whiskey flavor at all. And the overall portion was too small given the price. Another in our group ordered the same thing with the same sauce added. He commented similarly that the portion was small and that the flavor on the beef and sauce was lacking. No whiskey flavor was detected either. Others enjoyed their food. But I should have just stuck with the seafood sampler like everyone else.

I was expecting a good local seafood restaurant, but this was an excellent dining experience all the way around. It's a small, casual place where you immediately feel welcome.

I started with a mushroom appetizer and followed with a halibut filet served over fettucine with some of the best shrimp I've tasted on the side. Possibly the best meal I had in Scotland.

The sticky toffee pudding was slightly on the sweet side, but still very enjoyable. You have to order either 2 or 3 courses and the price for 2 courses is GBP 35.50. My only reason for giving 4 stars is that I thought it was a bit pricey for the portion sizes. The staff are super friendly, especially the one guy who appeared to be the manager. He was very attentive and made sure I was enjoying my meal. The interior is very nicely decorated with some Scottish-themed decor and plenty of natural light. The restaurant is conveniently located in the center of the town. I know it can get quite busy, but I was fortunate to come for dinner just before 7pm and find a table with no wait. Overall, despite the price, I was very happy with my meal at Cuchullin and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice dinner in Portree.

Came back after three years for lunch. We really loved it the first time around and looked forward…read morebeing back. And it really is great as ever. We've ordered the fried fish wrap, the seafood bowl and some fresh oysters. We actually wanted also some langoustines like last time. But since the menu is always a bit changing and depending on the catch, this time this option wasn't available. But there were some of them in the mixed seafood bowl. Also some herring, salmon, seafood dip and salad was in the delicous bowl. The fried fish wrap was excellent as well. Fresh cod, nicely fried. Crispy outside and nice, fresh and tender inside. Good stuff. And now for the highlight: The Oysters. We've had oysters in the Normandy (France), Spain, Italy, Portugal, South Korea, Japan, Australia, the US and in many other places. In several spots in England and Scotland as well. And these here were so far the best we've ever had! Fresh flavours of the sea, nicely sized, very sweet, smooth and creamy. Excellent oysters - almost drove three hours back the next day just to get some more. -But an altogether six-hour drive was a bit too much in the end. Hopefully next time around the oysters will be as great as this time. This time the weather was pretty cold and it was a bit rainy at times. So it was easy to get a table - even got one under the tent. Last time it was warm and sunny, but hard to get a seat and there was a long line. This time it was all easy, an advantage of this kind of weather which we didn't mind at all. A really really great place to grab some fantastic seafood items. We definitely will be back.

The oysters were huge, the lobster was buttery, and the cod with seafood ravioli was incredible. The sauces, toppings and proteins were all cooked to perfection in addition to the quality of seafood being the best in the world.

I ordered the filet of wild halibut with peashoot and watercress risotto and it was delicious. I was quite surprised and a little disappointed by the serving size compared to the price.

After making reservations over a month ago, we were very excited to dine in at the Loch Leven…read moreSeafood Cafe. Location is great with views of the Loch and surrounding mountains. Our initial young waitress was very attentive and graceful throughout our dinner. Unfortunately the restaurant was out of the main courses we desired, so we both opted for medium-rare Ribeye steaks. My partner received a proper medium rare steak, while I received a steak that was medium well to well done throughout most of the steak. A small portion of the steak was medium. Ultimately the steak was unevenly and over-cooked. Confusing, since the other steak we ordered at the same time was perfectly cooked. I dreadfully had to send a steak back to the kitchen for the first time in as long as I can remember. Our young waitress was very understanding and seemed to agree when I showed her the difference between the two steaks, and said no problem we will re-cook it for you. A little while later, an older waitress came back to the table with my original steak, who expressed that the owner/chef was currently present in the kitchen, reviewed (and perhaps cooked the steak?) and disagreed that the steak was perfectly medium-rare. I was obviously shocked at this point given we had an actual medium rare steak on our table to compare it to, and the difference was obvious for anyone with normal vision and proper cooking experience. She cut into the thickest part of the steak to show me, and what was shown was medium at best, and ignored all of the overcooked rest of the steak I had cut into previously without taking a single bite. This is where things turn truly awry, disappointing, and unprofessional. The older waitress suggested I must not understand what medium rare is in the UK, since I am American. Very condescending. I had previously also received a bit of an attitude from her when asking if they had a wine pairing for the steak (they didn't), which is common when you have a £30+ ribeye on the menu. I immediately corrected her saying that I do understand proper doneness of meat (both of us have restaurant experience and are avid cooks) and it's actually a universal standard, and this was the most overcooked steak I received in the past month I had been fine dining across Scotland. I was given the option to order something else since the chef was not up to preparing a new steak, but I politely declined to order anything additional after feeling so disrespected and seriously questioning the capability of the chef at this point. I chose to split the proper medium rare steak we did receive, and finished off our evening. The steak we did eat was just average for the price. Fortunately the co-op down the street was still open and we were able to prepare an equally adequate meal at home. The fact that the owner/chef at no point came out to discuss the issue was very disappointing and lack of accountability was a bit baffling. In the end, I was rightfully not charged for the steak on the final bill, but this was easily our worst dining experience across a month of dining all over Scotland, both Michelin-starred and more low-key restaurants. I've had nothing but extremely kind service in the whole of Scotland except this establishment, and it appears this sentiment is expressed in other recent reviews. I would suggest to skip this one and consider other great options in the area with more capable cooking staff.
