Timothy was our server for lunch and at the bar earlier in the day, sadly I cannot remember the name of the young lady that served us at dinner time, but she was lovely as well. The restaurant was very nice with a beautiful view of the loch.

    Almost everything about our experience at The View was fantastic, except for the view itself and…read moreour initial interaction with the woman who seated us, which was so terrible that it tainted our entire experience there. We had a late reservation on our second night in Portree...we arrived early, planning on having a dram at the adjacent whisky bar while waiting for our table to be available. Our experience at the whisky bar itself was fantastic. The bartender was very knowledgeable in the selection; he guided us as well, and having tasted quite a number of whiskies during our visit, the 2 he served us were easily at the top of our tasting list in all of Scotland. When it came time for our actual restaurant seating time, we headed back to check in, where Angela greeted us and took us to our table. Our seat was in the corner of the restaurant, next to the window, but with a large column blocking our view of Portree. (You know "The View," which the place is named after.) I asked if we could wait for another table to open up. Angela immediately got a frown on her face and responded: "If you want to wait another hour." Those words on their own were hard enough to hear after having already been in the restaurant (at the bar) for over an hour...but the way she said it was snide, mean, and it felt like she was scolding us. And then she said it a second time. It was just one sentence from her...but it made us feel terrible, like we had made some kind of offensive error asking for a different table (with an actual view). We completely understand that sometimes requests are not possible, but surely there could have been a nicer way she could have communicated the answer to us. Maybe "Ahh, I'm so sorry, but all the other tables are booked. It could be up to an hour wait if you want." Angela could have been much kinder, but instead she made us feel like she was doing us a favor by allowing us to be in the restaurant at all. What would have been a 5-star experience overall gets dinged an entire star because of that tiny, terrible reaction with her. Writing this a couple of weeks later, I still can feel the sinking feeling in my stomach after she said what she said the way she said it. Maybe Angela was having a bad day. Maybe she was fed up with customers in general...but that one tiny interaction will stick with us for a long time. Our server was lovely, and the food we got was great. I appreciated having fine-dining vegetarian options. I had the Twice Baked Scottish Cheddar Soufflé. It was light and fluffy and served on a gorgeous bed of different colored tomatoes and lettuce, and topped with pesto. I enjoyed it. My wife got the wedge salad, which was also really good...a full wedge of bib lettuce and a nice dressing...very fresh. She also had scallops as a starter...a cold dish, smoky and tasty. (According to her, I'm a vegetarian.) The bread was cute...a little baked ball...fun to look at, served with a dollop of butter served on a on a stone slab. (Though it was cold on the inside, so wondering if this may have been out of the fridge or freezer for a while.) We saw a couple other tables order chips, and they looked so good we added an order...these were perfect, lightly coated with truffle oil and parmesan...easily the best chips we had in all of Scotland. We finished with cheesecake for dessert. It was topped with raspberries and a raspberry compote. It was served with raspberry sorbet and topped with a wrapped waffle cookie-like topping filled with a delicious chocolate ganache with freeze-dried raspberries sticking out either end. Raspberry-heavy but quite indulgent. We enjoyed the food a lot. Our server was nice and sweet. Our experience at the bar ahead of time was fantastic. The view could have been better based on where we were seated. Unfortunately, the thing that we'll remember the most about our experience here was the egregious interaction with Angela.

    Set in the middle of Portree, Scorrybreac is absolutely a restaurant to reserve months ahead of…read morewhen you intend to visit Skye. The service was outstanding, our servers were everything that we could have hoped for. They explained everything and answered questions about specific items of each course. This is not a Michelin star restaurant and I asked why it is not. The presentation, the creativity and the ambiance are all certainly Michelin adjacent. The server said that they want to be more relaxed and not work for that 'star'. I would certainly not have known the difference. The 8 courses are listed in the menu. It is a fixed menu and fixed price. The choices are to request a wine pairing and coffee/tea at the end. We chose the red wife from Slovakia that was dry and quite nice. It's not possible to describe each of the courses. My favorites were Hebridean haggis-haggis with a turnip espuma(or foam) and buckwheat. The combination of flavors and textures was amazing. The other two dishes I lived were the halibut in a chicken reduction and small veges. It was so fresh and flaky and moist. The Seabuckthorn curd was incredible. That plant does not grow in N.A. the berry was pureed and explained by yogurt ice cream. There 2 small tufts of white chocolate infused work pine oil. I've never tasted something like that dessert. Make a reservation here if you can. The price is £105 from £95 from a review 3 years ago. It's well worth it.

    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.

The hotel staff was lovely and helpful. We were smart enough to have made a dinner reservation before our arrival for our one night stay. Nice pubby dark wood décor and seating spread over a couple of rooms. Many tables occupied on our visit. Dinner menu Scottish leaning as to be expected. It was clear from the outset that they were low on staff with our (very young) server and water coming a good bit after seating. My partner was not real hungry this evening so chose to do a bowl of the soup the day-potato & leek. This came with a wonderful, fresh roll. The roll was pronounced fantastic. We have enjoyed many an excellent bread item in Scotland and this was another example here. They know what they're doing. The soup was very tasty but after a few spoonfulls, it became "boring". My choice was a Filet of Scottish Sea Trout (yes it is different from Salmon, Google it). Served with roasted new potatoes, braised leeks, herb crusted baby carrots, and smoked mussel butter sauce. The potatoes were perfectly cooked, as were the leeks. The carrots were interesting with the herb "crust", and the mussel sauce added an umami depth to the fish. Interestingly, the sauce included a few nicely cooked, out of the shell, mussels. A succulent addition. Loved every bite. For dessert, we chose a Cinnamon Apple Tart with Caramel Whipped Cream and Vanilla Ice Cream. All of this came together for a scrumptious finale to our meal. Especially the whipped cream. Perfect portion size also. Different planning could have put us here for a longer period of time and it would have been wonderful. If you are traveling in this area, try to either stay or eat here. You won't regret it. Highly recommended.
