The best restaurants serving Seafood food in Oban South and the Isles Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

I booked with slight trepidation after reading some mixed reviews. Staying at Fionnphort or 2 nights with my wife to visit Iona & Staffa and as the trip coincided with my wife's birthday I booked the Ninth Wave as a treat. We both eat out regularly in Scotland and abroad and have been lucky enough to visit some Michelin starred places over the years. The service at Ninth Wave was slightly quirky but very pleasant and the dining room small but very relaxed. The quality of food served was beyond expectations and on a par with some Michelin starred establishments. The format is akin to a tasting menu with 3 or 4 smaller plates (#4 is dessert), cheese as an optional extra and coffee / petit fours included. We shared a decent bottle of white from an interesting list. I had scallops and wood pigeon while my wife had the mackerel and crab stuffed courgette blossom. We both chose the half lobster "main" course. the Pigeon was slightly tough but otherwise the food was faultless. The lobster was exceptional and so refreshing to see it on a menu without the usual pricing supplement. Fabulous evening - thank you Carla and John. We will visit again one day.

Great crab sandwiches and smoked salmon sandwiches. Lobster salad is also very good value for money and very tasty. Highly recommended

This is a new addition to the eating options in Tobermory - and will completely put it on the map as not only’ vaut le detour’, Michelin style, but as a destination in its own right . I had the tasting menu, my partner the a la carte ( so first, no nonsense about the whole table has to have the tasting menu)- the venue is bright, the welcome warm and informative, and the food - some of the best I’ve ever had. The langoustine and halibut courses were absolutely delicious whilst the scallops - with fennel oil and white chocolate sauce, amongst other flavours- the best I’ve ever had. Totally brilliant. Sauces for all the meat and fish , absolutely imaginative, some unusual, and worked! Wine choices delicious, atmosphere ‘ local’- tables talking to each other! ‘ and welcoming - ‘ walk ins’ were warmly greeted. All in all - an experience. And again - the food - superb. I didn’t take any photos but someone will….. we’ll done, and I wish you all the success you strongly deserve!

Wow what an incredible dining experience on Mull, every single course of the tasting was incredible and the 2 front of house ladies are super knowledgable and the food and wine - thank you to Ross and his lively team for making our anniversary meal very special indeed

We had dinner two times and were pleased by the kindness of the staff each time. They do their utmost to give you a nice evening. Sea food is just as it should be fresh and simply dressed but delicious, and with a nice bottle of wine, youre dinner is top. Good value for money and pre booking is certainly advised !

Battered scallops, calamari and a crab sandwich. All delicious. Turned a soggy day into a treat. I love seafood but this place is really special and I would recommend a detour to visit.

Great staff and great food. Would highly recommend. Always doing different food nights. Always tasty. Great for locals and visitors

Un ristorante dove mangerete un "fish and chips" tra i migliori che ho trovato in UK. Specializzato nel pesce di tutti i tipi. Ci si può sedere al tavolo oppure portarselo via e mangiarlo per strada. Oltre al fish & chips ho mangiato un ottimo salmone ad un prezzo ragionevole

Idéalement situé à côté des quais d'où commencent les wildlife tours, pratique pour manger chaud après tout ce froid sur le bateau. Personnel +/- sympathique et efficace. Premier "fish & chips" que je goûte et franchement, super bon ! On sent que le poisson est frais et la friture n'est pas aussi lourde que celles que j'ai connues jusqu'ici. Frites bonnes, RAS. Sauce tartare se marie bien avec le plat. Chocolat chaud un peu petit mais correct. Tarifs un peu élevés, mais vu qu'est en zone touristique et en plus, ouvert en continu jusqu'à 21h (heure locale), c'est compréhensible !

Fish n chips ottimo e croccante, patatine perfette. Prezzo buono, peccato per la pioggia incessante del giorno che ci siamo fermati che ci ha costretto a mangiare in macchina

The Mish is a Tobermory institution and deservedly so. Its Mishdish restaurant is warm and homey, with a reasonably priced menu whose componentsare mostly sourced locally. We had a lovely evening there over a bottle of wine and excellent and generous servings of seafood and veggie specialities. For starters we had oysters, haggis bites, and a vegetable tartlet, followed by mains of langoustines, hake and a wild mushroom bourgignon with celeriac mash. Everything was served with courtesy and care for the customer. We will surely be back.

Wonderful seafood freshly prepared before your eyes. Bought a load of seafood to eat on the train (whelks, prawns, lobster, herring) it was all amazing and good value too.
