The best restaurants in Lerwick North Shetland Islands Highlands and Islands

We might have made a booking to eat here but the woman was so rude, turning her back on us and walking away we thought better of it.Her husband explained they had been busy cooking as if that was an excuse I go to Shetland regulary but will certainly not venture in this place again

Tea more? More like open more HAHAHAAHAHA I'm literally so funny aren't I?

Given some of the other reviews and average score I'm at a loss to explain my experience here. I found the general ambience of the restaurant rather underwhelming. I chose a starter of onion bhajis. I was considering returning them, but I was very hungry and for whatever reason didn't feel comfortable sending them back. All I can say is, they hadn't been made that day. Moving to the main, I opted for the lamb Rogan josh, rice and keema naan. The curry was more like pieces of lamb with a kind of slightly spicy gravy. The rice was fine and the naan itself was very good. The keema was like some kind of doner meat. I left most of this and ate the bread. I can only assume they were having a bad night as the restaurant had come recommended. I wouldn't go again.

We had a nice Indian meal here. We were the only two customers.

Service was good and the food was cooked brilliant.

Great place to eat quickly, and the ladies working there are so lovely!

Great service, fast and friendly and a good range of choices on the menu.

Friendly staff, good food, plenty of gluten free options. First time I visited there was hardly any customers but the second time it was very busy so I was glad I reserved a table.

Nice people, very welcoming. Plum duck was excellent. Look upstairs to find this restaurant. It is now called TJ's and also serves Thai food.

Such a sour face. Why not a happy greeting? Even the words gave the feeling I wasn't really welcome. The crispy noodle chow Mien was flavorless and some noodles were burned just as the initial smell indicated. Sloppy cooking.

Tired Hotel that was perhaps at its height in 197x, but with nice people. The price for a room, indescribably expensive, but maybe that's how Lerwick is in the summer.

Today me and my friends went to the Phu Siam for dinner and it was so great. I got the Rad Prig with chicken and spicy chips as the side. The food was splendid and the sauce added a grand flavour. Brad, our waiter was so lovely and welcoming and made us feel as though we could ask anything when needed. Lovely service and great experience overall. LOVED the interior design and would DEFINETLY go again.

Fantastic value for money,great food cooked while you wait,they say breakfast sets you up for the day well the large breakfast will keep you going all day and more. It was the only place open when the boat comes in at 7.00 but was an oasis on a dreich morning,superb.

The service here was so poor that I had to get up from the table and ask the staff to be served. They were just standing at the counter chatting. I asked for a draft beer with my meal and was curtly informed ‘This is a cocktail bar’. Seemed rather amusing as it is in a battered building adjoining the bus station. Hardly my image of a cocktail lounge. The food was not great( could not eat the mussels) and portion very small for £16 but I would not come back. In the town centre there are better places such as 88 and Dowry.

I came into the cafe after work. I asked for skinny fries for my little sister jemima who is a very picky eater and waited for them with my friends. When I got them they were half skinny fries half chunky chips. I explained politely to them that I wanted skinny fries instead. After waiting 10 minutes I only got chunky chips. My sister jemima is very disappointed with them. She beat me up. Also my friend got a hair in her cheese and tomato panini. Super sad. 2 stars.
