Came here during a recent stay in the Highlands for a meal as it's a highly rated restaurant. Even on booking it was very clearly emphasised that we'd need to be gone within 80 minutes but that's fine as we don't dawdle. We arrived and were squashed into the corner of the half full restaurant (some tables were still empty as we departed) Our food order was taken at the same time as our drinks but the food was served first. In fact, the drinks may never have been served if we hadn't got someone's attention and asked for them. The service wasn't great for the duration, particularly a couple of the waitresses, although one waiter was particularly smiley and friendly. Unfortunately I ordered the teriyaki salmon which was overcooked and dry throughout. The sauce was overly sweet. The chicken was apparently a little better but we both agreed that it was neither horrible nor impressive. Dessert took an age to arrive, as did the bill. I think the bill only came because the floor manager got into a clear panic that we were still present after 78 minutes. Plenty of people taking photographs just outside holding wine glasses up against the beautiful scenery but sadly, we wouldn't visit again. *Edited to correct error over order of food and drinks served. Visited September 2023

Beautiful location for wonderful Indian and International food. Not too far from the Glencoe area and only a 5-min drive if you are staying at the Corriegour Lodge Hotel. Reservations are highly recommended.

I had dinner with my boyfriend, and honestly from the outside it didn't give any indication that it was practically an Indian restaurant. Both the environment and the atmosphere, in fact, recall the typical Scottish one, but then reading the menu you realize that the local dishes are really limited, and the menu is mostly made up of Indian dishes. For this reason, my boyfriend and I struggled to choose a course that was right for us, given that everything suggested that we would be eating in a typical Scottish restaurant. Lastly, the bill was very high compared to the quality of the dishes, and we realized that an extra 10% had been added to the receipt as a tip: we asked a waiter for explanations, and we were told that it was written (in small print) on the menu that a 10% tip on the bill would be included. In my opinion, this denotes unfairness towards the customer, especially if he is a tourist as in our case.

It was a little expensive, but the food, staff and restaurant were lovely. Would highly recommend to all.

We stayed in the hotel three nights and enjoyed three dinners and one lunch here which shows how much we liked it. Don’t be put off by the combined Scottish/International and Indian menu. The Indian head chef of this small chain of hotels is clearly passionate about bringing great Indian food to the Highlands of Scotland. However the Scottish food is just as good too (Eg an excellent Cullen Skink) and my Chinese father in law even enjoyed the noodles. Excellent service and excellent views of Loch Lochy through the glass restaurant front, there is also outside seating available if you are lucky with the weather/midges.

We stopped on our way back from isle of skye. We had the lobster and it was the Best I ever had. Highlands recommended the place. Friendly service and excellent food with a beautiful view on the loch. Hope to be able to come back !

Lovely setting beside the loch but very very expensive, prawn cocktail consisted of 5 prawns arranged around an egg cup of marie rose sauce and one leaf of salad costing £20, butter chicken main course 3 tiny pieces of chicken in very watery curry (more like a supermarket own brand ) , not what you would expect from a high class restaurant.

After seeing the view this restaurant had to offer, my partner and I had to make a trip while staying in Fort William for a couple days. It did not disappoint. Lovely view out the full glass panel windows over looking the loch. The food was absolutely amazing, highly recommend the Salman or Highland Burger. The staff seemed very friendly and pleasant. The restaurant was busy for a Thursday night, which is always a good sign that the food is good. Expensive but worth it. My only two small things were the lack of parking. We found it quite difficult to get parked up. The other thing was when we sat down in the restaurant, the waitress ‘seemed’ to offer a chilled bottle of water for the table. I assumed it was free but noticed it was £6 on the bill (£120) I would definitely go here again.

Great views across the Loch. Amazing atmosphere and a great selection of European and Indian food, they even have a pizza oven for wood fired pizza! Would highly recommend - we are there two nights in a row it was that good ☺️

Snagged a last-minute dinner reservation at this gorgeous lochside location! Truly any seat in the house provides an excellent view of Loch Lochy, but we were lucky enough to sit right next to the window. It was a drizzly day (big surprise right?) but even so, the view is stunning. This restaurant provides an excellent level of service! We felt very well-attended during our dining experience here. How FUN is the Scottish-Indian fusion theme on this restaurant's menu?! Where else can you start with Cullen Skink, move to Tikka Salmon, and end with Kulfi all paired with locally-brewed ales from Glen Spean? The salmon was a MAJOR highlight, seriously some of the best salmon I've ever had in my life and the coriander sauce was to die for - I could have drunk it straight. The Kulfi was a new experience for us (Indian ice cream with almonds, pistachios, and a lovely cardamom flavor) and we were thrilled. The perfect light but sweet ending to our meal. 14 days in the UK & this was one of the best dining experiences we had!!!

The restaurant has spectacular views over Loch Lochy and the mountains on the other side. There is an option to eat outside when the weather is favourable. The menu is not large but offers a good choice of western or Indian food. Service was friendly and attentive. The prices are reasonable. There is plenty of parking.

We visited this loch side restaurant for lunch with our pooch and were very pleasantly surprised. The menu offered an eclectic mix of options and the Indian dishes we selected were really good and the service was very friendly and attentive. The hotel itself looked like a lovely place to stay directly on the loch with lots of walks nearby but the restaurant is worth a visit in its right and this is definitely the best Indian food we have had in the area .

We were recommended this restaurant by the hosts at our B&B, and it exceeded all our expectations. We ate early, at 6pm, before the clocks went back, so we had a wonderful view to the mountains across the loch before it got dark. The dining room is beautifully light and well-designed and the staff very attentive. Everything was delicious - we had Indian main courses, Hyderabadi Lamb Shank and Malabar Fish Curry - and came back to Scotland for Sticky Toffee Pudding. It was the standout meal of our week walking the Great Glen Way and I'd recommend it to anyone for a treat.

We booked a table here for our Anniversary dinner whilst staying at Fort Williams. The hotel looks lovely with beautifully decorated with lights outside, and the inside made you feel like a log cabin hotels you see in America. Would have been a great view if it was during day time also with the Loch. We ordered Chicken Hyderabadi (well marinated and tender chicken) with butter garlic Nan, Toasted Cauliflower and potato Biryani tasted like Traditional Biryani from Hyderabad and they were delicious, just the right amount of spices to bring out the flavours. The portions are also a good size too. We also had Kulfi which was delicious. The staff are very welcoming and attentive even though the restaurant was busy. Very friendly and helpful. They also gave us a cake for our Anniversary, very thoughtful and generous of them. I would recommend this place for Lunch and dinner. Their menu has a wide selections of English dishes and Indian dishes. We are going back for Lunch tomorrow as well.
