Mangrove in Highland

Food and service were excellent and the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend Mangrove

Delicious curry and really friendly host. Love eating here. Thanks for another great meal.

It’s not worth the price and they took more than 45 mins to get the food , we have asked them to make spicy all thalis, but the curry’s are sweet and no salt . Not satisfied with the food and service .

A splendid evening, beautiful relaxed environment and wonderful service. The food was delicious. Cooked to the highest quality and wonderful flavours.

Food was so good! Best chilli garlic chicken we’ve had! Will definitely be back!

Fresh, tasty food and incredibly kind staff. Our little one got sick during the meal, and they jumped in right away to help—calm, caring, no fuss. Big thanks!

We walked in by chance and we were immediately warmly welcomed. It was the first time we tasted Indian. We were surprised and found the food very tasty. The service is excellent. Highly recommended in Inverness!

Staff were really nice, food was very,very good, and back ground music really good, one of the best restaurant's I have visited, would definitely recommend this establishment

We dined here yesterday and it was a great experience. The restaurant is lovely and all the staff are very friendly and efficient. The food was fabulous. Will definitely return next time we are in Inverness!

delivered by a pleasant mannerly young man

Everything was delicious, so full of flavour! Big portions of curry, great naan breads, everything so tasty.

Curry not good, watery, and not very flavoursome. The nan breads were doughty and plastic tasting cheap ingredients not vibrant and moreish that they should be. Worst Indian meal we've had for a long time.

We did not sit in but got a take away. The worst Indian food we've had in a long time. Curry was watery and tasteless. Nans were doughy, and toppings were not good we had cheese and garlic. Not a lot of rice in tub. Very dissapointed. We were going to come to restaurant if it was good but have been totally put off.

Started with fabulous mocktails! Food was excellent. My pakoras were best I’ve tasted and main courses were delicious. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Only negative was that we felt a bit rushed between courses and a member of staff started clearing our table while one of our party was still eating which wasn’t great. Apart from this we would highly recommend The Mangrove and will definitely return on our next visit to Inverness.

Chicken chaat and tandoori mixed grill both delicious. Waiting staff attentive and friendly. Only downside is that’s it’s BYO. Highly recommended

Service wonderful and friendly, could not have been more helpful. Great seats in the window watching the world go by. The food was fantastic - I had the palak paneer and it was so tasty and fresh - no green slurry! The portion sizes were also wonderful - was pleasantly full at the end. Thanks so much for a lovely experience. I’ll be thinking about it until the next visit!

We eat here every time we're in Inverness. The best food and the loveliest staff. Highly recommend eating here 👍

Sub standard curry with terrible delivery service. After the curry arrived, 40mins later than advertised (deliveroo) , we were greeted with what can only be decribed as dire! The chicken pakora reminded me of those rubber duck toys that dogs play with! I'm sure they tasted better too! The pakora was cold, bland and clearly not fresh. Epic fail. My girlfriend's prawn curry was watery, tasteless and she got the grand total of........wait for it......3 PRAWNS to satisfy her! No words! Disgrace! Epic fail No 2. My jalfresi curry was the only saving grace and I am being very, VERY generous here! As you can guess I will not be recommending this curry house and I suggest you steer well clear, at all costs. #another£40downthedrain.

Oh wow !! What a find. Delicious, freshly prepared food. Try the thali. Fantastic selection.

Fantastic food and service! Everything was top-notch. I'll recommend.

We experienced Mangrove in a group, Food Taste & Quality is World Class cooking with organic Taste & Ingridients, Beautiful, Cosy & calm atmosphere, Very Clean Place, Only drawback we found as Small Portions.

Ordered a takeaway online (2 x King Pawn Garlic Chilli Curries) and collected within the timeframe as instructed. Upon returning home (some 5-10 minutes max), the food was not only cold but there was little flavour/taste to the dishes, no seasoning whatsoever and certainly no heat as in spice throughout the dish...merely a couple of birds eye chillies. All in all, an experience to forget and one I will not be repeating. Albeit a much longer drive for collection, will revert to previous Indian for all future takeaways. Would NOT recommend Mangrove for its food on basis of this experience.

For valentines night... we heard good place & thought we would give this restaurant a try as we are curry lovers. We booked table for 8.300m set meal £40 per head. Food was cold on arrival. Curry was awful. They had ran out of 2 - 3 of the items we had chosen earlier on set meal. Very poor wasn't impressed at all. Ladies toilets absolutely disgusting..one toilet was covered in feaces. We were charged £84..should have our money back very poor

Really enjoyed the food and the waiting staff were great. They lost our order however and we were a very long time waiting for our main course. We did get a generous discount which was greatly appreciated. Ladies toilets were very cold. No heating in queueing area and a lukewarm radiator in the cubicle.

Excellent food as it always is. Attentive staff. Nice ambiance. Mocktails are amazing. Thank you Abdul, Zack and Dubie.

Lovely Relaxing Evening, good food and good service as usual.

Delivery was fine but food was very cold . Normally we love it here but this time it wasn’t good

Disappointing, chicken dry & overcooked in all dishes Stringy and soggy bits of lettuce under the starter. No other salad. Standard for takeaway is below that of eating in this restaurant

Best curry I’ve ever had in Inverness

Food was fine and delivered on time however it wouldve been nicer not having to scrape half my curry from the inside of the bag.

food was cold and not really worth what we paid for it..dissapointing

Had the best guava drink! And the chicken tikka masala was classic and very comforting, highly recommend. Abdul was very nice and we had a great conversation!

Such a vibe, and the food and service were excellent. Thanks Abdul!

Food arrived cold. Red curry was watery. Both korma and red curry tasted the same somehow. Little flavouring. Really disappointed. Will be going back to our regular from now on!

Wonderful food excellent service 👌

Simply The best in Inverness and I have tried most Indian restaurants.i had the meat thali and asked if it was possible to have more lamb than chicken this was done at no extra charge ,if you like lamb this is the place to try just melts in your mouth with no need for a knife to cut it with my Parnell had a vegetarian’s meal that she said was one of the best .coming from Glasgow and nowing what a good curry should be like this fits the bill nicely .the atmosphere was brilliant And first class service

The best Indian I have had! Very delicious

Food was delicious chicken was the most tender we have had.

Beautiful meal, lamb bhuna delicious, pickle tray chutney also, lovely staff,very attentive, highly recommend, looking forward to going back.

I was sent the wrong curry. I ordered korma and was sent bhuna

Great ambience with delicious Indian food. Great location with friendly staff. I especially appreciated the variety of vegetarian options. Recommended restaurant in Inverness.

Stopped here for a dinner mid week. Lovely setting, well laid out. Efficient and friendly staff. The restaurant was BYOB with a corkage charge. Mixed tandoori platter was really nice. We also had the chicken tikka chilli korma but was disappointed as marked 2 chilli heat, but wasn't hot, but was quite sweet. Prices were about average. Pretty good dining experience overall.

I have to thank Abdul Kahn for his kind attention and friendly chat on 02.01.25. He has a marvellous restaurant which was a real find in an unfamiliar city (passing through with my sister). Super food, lovely relaxed atmosphere. well trained staff. Nothing wrong with the alcohol free beer either. I would certainly visit again.

Quick delivery , polite driver

After numerous recommendations and looking at some of the reviews online we decided to try Mangrove for a takeaway. Unfortunately we were really disappointed with the quality of food. We tried three different curries and although not the worst, we found them all to be really watery and bland, as well as mostly consisting of onion for all dishes. At £55 for three people without any drinks, it was also more expensive than most other takeaways in the area.

Ordered in the early part of the evening (received at 6.30) you would think they weren’t pushed at that time so no mistakes. Poppadoms were missing (just crumbs at the bottom of the bag), one meal that should have been chicken was lamb, if you enjoy the meat that you chose you would like to think there would be plenty of it (especially for the price paid) but seven small pieces of lamb in a rice heavy biryani doesn’t justify £14. I have never ordered from them before and never will again.

The best Indian I’ve ever had! Incredible food and choice, staff very friendly and welcoming! It’s a BYOB with £2 corkage pp. very accommodating. Will be back!

The food tasted good, more than anything the staff and the owner makes you feel like home.

Manager was extremely rude. Charged us £2.50 per chutney and we ordered a couple as nobody told us. Did not apologise immediately, tried to justify himself despite the chutney not being listed as a chargeable item on the menu. Very disappointed with manager's attitude and service. Definitely would not come here again.

We had a lovely experience at Mangrove in Inverness as a family of four adults and two kids. The drinks were fantastic—definitely the highlight of the evening—and the food was quite good too, especially the veg jalfrezi, which was packed with flavor. The owner was incredibly warm and welcoming, stopping by our table multiple times to check on us, which added a nice personal touch to the evening. The only minor drawback was that the service could have been a bit faster, but overall, it didn’t take away from our enjoyable experience. We’d definitely recommend Mangrove for its great atmosphere, delicious drinks, and friendly hospitality!

Extremely rude staff - specially Joe who calls himself manager Please be mindful as you visit

Food was very tasty, and the staff was friendly. We really enjoyed our dishes. Mine was mixed tandoori, and my husband had Mamy’s biryani, which was really good.

Friendly staff, great food. Will come back again and again

Wonderful food, great service from the friendly staff. Fantastic night

As finding my side road can be complicated, I left notes for the driver. Driver phoned at 6 pm as he was on the main road and I explained him how to reach my flat. Driver was lost, we had to ask him to go back and we got the food. I wish a refund

Delicious food, wonderful staff and great lively atmosphere. Hits the spot every time!

The food was fantastic but we ordered for a specific time as we have a baby so after the food arrived over an hour late, it meant that our schedule was completely, and very inconveniently, disrupted.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is very nice, lots of plants and incredible decor, really feels unique, the service was incredible, very quick and efficient, it didn't take long for them to bring out the food and on that, the food was incredible, poppadoms were crispy but not too hard, naan was tasty and complimented the curry, the rice was cooked well and the curries were all very delicious, creamy and packed full of flavour, although they weren't as spicy as we would've liked however I'm sure they would be more than happy to add some more spice if you asked, food was reasonably priced. overall, an incredible restaurant and definitely worth a visit if you're in the mood for some curry.

Good customer service and food was really good and worth the money. Will definetly come back again back in summer. Recommended

A disappointment. I had chicken tikka starter, which was tasty enough though small. The lamb palak was very disappointing indeed- lukewarm, watery, with very poor meat which had a lot of gristle. Pretty tasteless and insipid. My wife had the biryani which she did enjoy, and the garlic naan was good. This was a return visit from a previous disappointment to see if it was just a one off and was better- this was far worse. Won’t be back.

I visited for the first time for a birthday in November. From the moment we sat down, we were rushed and the staff were rude. The waiter came over 4 times in our first 5 minutes to ask if we were ready to order. We ordered the platter for 2 and requested to upgrade the naans to garlic rather than plain and were told no. We were more than happy to pay extra for this which we emphasised but they said the chefs do not like when people request changes so it's either plain naan or no naan. We removed the naan from the platter and ordered them separately in order to have the food we wanted. As soon as we finished our meal, the dessert menu was thrown in front of us, we were immediately asked if we were going to order anything from it and then the bill was put down. We paid the bill and started putting our coats on and the owner asked us if we were going to order anything else AGAIN, even though it was clear we had paid and were leaving. A large booking came in halfway through and the people seemed to be friends of the owner so I got the impression nobody else was important to them that night. The food was fine, but due to the terrible treatment of their customers and their inability to accommodate simple requests (especially for a special occasion which was exceedingly disappointing), I will not be returning and would certainly not recommend.

Food was amazing, service great and beautifully decorated. Our server eilidh was a delight and knew exactly what to recommend. Will be back!

Omg fantastic. Beautiful venue. Amazing food. We were served by a fanatastic ginger girl called Eilidh. She was so attentive and answered all our questions. Thank you to her for making our experience so wonderful! #WELOVEEILIDH #EILIDHNEEDSAPAYRISE

Very little choice if you want an Indian in Inverness, so we ended up here by default. Nice and friendly welcome, but portions are very small and if I'm honest, the food didn't taste that great. I've had much better elsewhere. The night we were there, there was an awful woman singing in the background. It was bad and far too loud. I hope for their sake this isn't a regular thing because they will only lose business. Didn't enjoy the night really, and was happy to leave.

Pathetic, worst indian food i ever had in the United Kingdom. Would never ever come back. Service was the only good thing in the restaurant for me.

pretty poor quality. food was stone cold on arrival even with the rider being at restaurant before food being ready. disappointed massively, £60 wasted on food that instantly had to be chucked into the air fryer and its never great after. think we will give this place a miss now unless sitting in.

Extremely disappointed with this meal. I was told it was an outstanding Indian restaurant, but after receiving a lamb madras with very little flavour and mainly just spice, I was quick disappointed. To add to this, there was only five small pieces of lamb in which three of them were inedible! They were rock solid and as dry as could be. The bhuna was loaded with chicken and was okay. I NEVER leave food, yet after this take away I have half a plate of madras for the bin. Will not be back.

Excellent, memorable meal out. Food was delicious. Staff were friendly and obliging.

The Mangrove restaurant was very spacious and well laid out,food was very authentic and tasty. I thought the pricing was fair,the service was attentive, but I felt a bit rushed between courses, and after I finished my meal, I felt rushed to pay my bill.

Food is great. Service and people are even better. Highly recommend if you’re ever in Inverness.

Food was not delivered at all yet it was stated as delivered.

Had a dinner at this place and I must say that the place is oberprices according to the portion size. The food was good, but was not contented with the portion size as it is not upto the mark with the price.

Excellent Service and meal, thank you.

the food is really good however dont bother ordering drinks they never arrive with your meal

Mains ok, but starters, rice and naan very poor. Staff nice, but we won't be back. There are much better Indian restaurants in Inverness.

Visited late November on a Friday night. Amazing atmosphere, I've never been in an Indian restaurant with such a bouncing and boisterous atmosphere, but it really suited the mood. We had pre-booked and were seated within seconds of arriving. The service was truly excellent, super attentive staff and the owner even came and spoke to us a couple of times. The absolute highlight was the food though – without doubt the best Indian food I have had in the UK. We went for a selection of items: Popadoms and dips to begin with, then king prawn chilli garlic, the Mangrove Thali and the Tandoori Mixed Platter. We also got some extra rice, a peshwari nan and some chips. For the 3 of us this was almost too much food, but it was so delicious we scoffed the lot. We took our own alcohol and paid a very affordable £2 per person corkage. Overall the meal worked out at less than £30 per head and I consider that great value for the quality and taste of the food etc. We will definitely return.

Excellent meal out. Coped well with a big party of us, and BYOB really keeps costs down

Rice was cold when arrived and 2 of the 3 curries were luke warm, tried to contact mangrove no answer on the phone

Delicious food. Still hot on arrival. 100% recommend.

GEEAT SERVICE!! I was a solo lady and the owner saw me and sat with me and conversated! FOOD WAS AMAZING! please come here! Staff is super friendly! I got the non veg thali and everything tastes on point! It was a great expeirnce!

Terrible experience, had guests over for a meal... original time 630pm , time then delayed til 700pm,... driver was shown to be waiting, but food didnt arrive until 810pm.. won't be using restaurant again

It wasn’t the best meal. Half portion of rice delivered when I called advised next one is free. No use now when we were sharing.

Stopped off for food after someone had mentioned it was a good place for a meal - it wasn’t good it was AMAZING , food was perfect and staff were very attentive - even spoke to the owner who was such a nice guy

Took a takeaway. The pulao rice and paneer curry was absolutely tasteless. Felt like all the items were prepared without any salt and spices. No flavour whatsoever. It was huge disappointment. I don’t think they do justice to Indian cuisines.

Samen met vrienden een weekje Schotland. Daar hoort een bezoekje aan een indiaans restaurant bij. Heerlijk gegeten. Het gezelschap was goed, de bediening vriendelijk en het eten van goede kwaliteit. Een gezellige drukte in het restaurant maakte de ambiance af. BYOB was even wennen voor ons. Nog niet eerder meegemaakt. Maar prima bevallen. Bij het reserveren werd dit al aangegeven, dus hadden een lekkere witte wijn bij ons. Absoluut 4 sterren waard.

Spicy prawns on white rice. Just what I needed!

Great service and delicious food. I especially appreciated the variety of vegetarian options, including the veg thali, which can be ordered solo or as a shareable dish for two people. The restaurant is BYOB for anyone who wants a drink with dinner, but there is coffee, tea and various mixed non-alc drinks. Would come again!

Sorry, but I had to mark it down because of the dreadfully loud singing that started up as we were eating. We couldn't hear ourselves think and it ruined any chance of conversation. Maybe it wouldn't have been quite so bad if she'd been able to sing in tune, I don't know, but is this kind of thing really needed in an Indian restaurant? The food was okay, but nothing special if I'm completely honest. The portions were far too small and not worth the price. The fried rice arrived in a tiny bowl that, if it was me, I would have been embarrassed to serve to anyone. The staff were very nice and welcoming, and very attentive - a huge plus - but that girl singer (and I use the word lightly - she was awful and off key) just has to go. She cannot be good for business, surely. Our dinner experience was ruined, unfortunately.

Undoubtedly, Mangrove is the best Indian restaurant in Inverness. It is located in central Inverness and is about 3 minutes walk from the Inverness train station. The quality of food is outstanding—it has an authentic Indian taste. Moreover, there is a good variety of food items, which are clearly displayed on the menu card. I was very impressed with the staff; Nisha and her colleagues paid attention to my preferences for the food. The Mangrove team ensures a quick service (even on a busy Friday evening) and customises/suggests the food as per requirements of their guests. The ambience is great, allowing one to relax at the end of the day. I'd particularly recommend garlic naan, chicken tikka jalfreze, chicken tikka naga, bombay aloo, and poppadoms. Highly recommend if someone wants to relax and enjoy Indian food in Inverness after a day's hectic sightseeing.

Came in peckish, left with empty plates and finger licking desserts.

Visited Inverness from Newcastle. Walked into Mangrove after a long day and without the usual research. Was incredibly surprised by the quality of food and atmosphere at Mangrove. The owner himself went out his way to make sure each customer was happy. Very impressed.

Fantastic Bangladeshi restaurant. Great food and customer service.

Usually mangrove is great but today it wasn’t good. Tasted watered down

Without a doubt, the food here is excellent and has an authentic Indian taste. The chicken tikka, naans, and daal makhni are must-tries. I was very impressed with the staff, who recommended dishes based on our preferences. Special thanks to Nisha for her wonderful suggestions. Highly recommend!

pleasantand polite young lady delivered on time

I enjoyed the food. I need to remember to put a special request to not knock on the door because of ny dog lol

Excellent food, great ambience and professional service.

Greasy food, excellent service. Relaxed, friendly atmosphere. I look forward to next visit.

Bit limited in parking but good place to visit service was stretched as we arrived same tome as large group
