The Waterside - Highland

We stopped at speculations and had a garden dinner on a special annual day. the steak bavette was perfectly cooked and my seafood was lush. the wee was really good and they treated us to a campy toffee doll.... more excellent place for a special meal!

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.

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 take clients 30 min before closing, they should say that, not make up a lie.

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.

Great food and service. We ordered the chicken supreme and the steak and both were delicious. Lovely view of the river as well.
