10. Castle Moil Restaurant

There are not many places one can return to after 50 years and find them much as you remembered - but in the best of ways. Stopped in here for coffee after a week on nearby Raasay, and while it's been well maintained, the layout and feel of the hotel hadn't really changed much from my student days when, working in a nearby guest house for the summer, I spent quite a bit of off duty time with some of the local young people who'd befriended my colleague and me - granted more often in the bar!Warmly welcomed, we enjoyed a good cup of coffee and an outstanding slice of gluten free/vegetarian chocolate orange tart - with the bonus of a chat with the cheery waitress, who was kept busy with minibus travellers popping in. It's a great location too, so don't just come off the bridge and turn north, or you'll miss this unpretentious, friendly and well run restaurant, as well as the views and the story of Eilean Ban (the lighthouse island) where Gavin Maxwell (Ring of Bright Water) lived with his otters. Happy memories!

After waiting outside for around 30 mins we were given a table! It was worth the wait. I wouldnât say itâs the best seafood restaurant I have eaten in however the Food here is very good and service also. Not too expensive either.

We visit this area a lot with work, and the Claymore is one of our favourites. Tonight was busy, and the service was slow, but thatâs OK and understandable. However the food was appalling and overpriced, not seen that here before. The mussel broth was bland and watery, my chicken was cremated and inedible dumped on frozen chips with a few uninspiring lettuce leaves. We had 3 pints, 3 cokes and the bill was £103 for 3 of us with no desserts. Not good.

Arrived across the street with 44 On a coach with dinner prepaid. Found this gem and dined in true Spanish style, the front manager Scottish and the mistress in the kitchen a diminutive Spanish expert who came out to sincerely make sure you were pleased, we were! Had the best thick piece of cod prepared in a fabulous sauce while I had tender lamb with apricots, prunes and other vegetables. Finished with a cream Catalan in a jar with thick rich chocolate.
6. The Pier Hotel & Restaurant

We did not have a booking for the restaurant but took a chance and managed to secure a table for two in the small cosy restaurant. The waitress was very efficient and friendly considering she was the only one there and managed to get drinks from the bar also with no trouble. We ordered the mackerel pate and chowder to start followed by the smoked haddock/ black pudding risotto and seafood linguine. Meals were delicious and struggled to finish. Very reasonably priced and generous portions. Would recommend this restaurant as a must when visiting Portree. Will get back there again hopefully.

The Old School Restaurant is a favourite. Food is fresh and delicious, service is great, and the setting is very unique! I have eaten here in 2016 and 2019 on trips to Isle of Skye. You will likely need reservations, as it is a popular establishment. I highly recommend you try it.

We called in for lunch having prebooked (which is advisable). The restaurant was busy, and whilst our order was taken promptly by a very good hostess/waitress, we had to wait around 40 minutes for our food to arrive. The kitchen is small and only staffed by one person as far as we could see, and this limits the speed of output if it is busy. We had a main course and dessert. Beef blade as a main course was very tasty, and the burgers are of a good quality, but only a meagre serving of chips was forthcoming. The lack of green vegetables was a disadvantage. Belgium chocolate mousse as a dessert was good, but overpriced. There is a good selection of local beers and also a wine list/menu, but all drinks are expensive.

Me and several friends visited No 1 for a Christmas meal recently and it was superb. The food was excellent with the most amazing slow roasted pork belly I have ever tasted. The staff were friendly and easy-going without being formal which was pleasant. I was a actually pleasantly surprised at the place and would definitely go back.

This is a seafood restaurant but with great vegetarian and vegan options.The veg options are tasty, imaginative and nutritionally balanced, which as any vegetarian will know, is a rare thing. The service is friendly and efficient, the location is great, right on the harbourside. It is excellent value for money, but make sure you book in advance.
1. Loch Bay Restaurant

An intimate and contemporary Scottish restaurant with classic French influences in the beautiful fishing village of Stein, Isle of Skye.
Reviewed By Charlotte P
I can't remember when I last enjoyed a meal as much. Everything about this lunch was perfect. Mid week, mid October, wet and windy outside. But inside is a little gourmet haven which you honestly wouldn't expect to find in quite such a remote location. It is so relaxed, no stuffiness at all. Everyone chatting and clearly having fun. Excellent service and brilliant food. It's rare to eat a meal where every course is of the same high standard and every element on every plate is equally successful and delicious.I take my hat off to the chef and thank him for giving me and my husband such a memorable experience. Now all I have to persuade him to do is to give me the recipe for clootie dumpling...!
