The best restaurants serving Seafood food in Highlands and Islands

Flavour Flavour is probably the best dining experience I have ever encountered. The food tastes fantastic and is beautifully presented, and Chris’ commentary on how it was gathered and prepared adds a depth to the dining experience that enhances one’s appreciation of and enjoyment of each dish. Add to that the fun of watching Chris and Alex actually plate each dish in the open-kitchen dining area, and the whole experience is absolutely wonderful! Each dish, many of them using ingredients foraged from the hills and shores of the Isle of Harris, provided an explosion of wonderful tastes. The island is a great place to visit for its natural beauty and friendly people, but even if that weren’t the case, a chance to dine at Flavour would make a trip there worthwhile.

Très bien situé personnel accueillant et on a beaucoup apprécié les raviolis aux crabes avec coquille saint jacques et morue

Please please please open up again. I don't mind paying extra as the quantities and qualities of food are stupendous. 😋😘🤗

I knew not to expect lobster in November but I’d hoped for langoustines or maybe scallops at a push. Not to worry, haddock tacos sounded great! Love tacos, love haddock, so jumped at them and also ordered a kids fish & chips with a side order of mushy peas. I was the only person in and didn’t particularly enjoy having to listen to the young fella in the kitchen ranting about vegans and vegan food for 10 minutes. I’m clearly not vegan but I wouldn’t have enjoyed hearing rants about anything, especially calling people weirdos and generally being unpleasant. Not a great atmosphere to be waiting in. It was a mixed bag to be honest. The mushy peas were not, they were more of a pea & mint purée, not pleasant. The tacos were surprisingly bland. Of course I wasn’t expecting great Mexican food in a tiny village in the Highlands but I did expect some flavour. Even the fish was unseasoned. Luckily I was taking home and had guacamole and chipotle sauce to hand. The fish was plentiful and perfectly cooked though. And the batter (despite the lack of seasoning) was probably the best I’ve ever had. Light, crispy and golden. The fish and chips were faultless. Not chips as you’d maybe expect from a chippy, more like fries but they were really good and well seasoned. I’d probably have made this a 3.5 but I’m happy to give 4. The young woman serving was really pleasant and helpful and countered the rants from the kitchen (she handled him well too, better than I would have). I’d definitely return and recommend but wouldn’t recommend the tacos.

Stopped by for a quick lunch it was everything I hoped for langoustines were delicious would definitely recommend and look forward to a return visit

Mark and Lucy run a great restaurant AND hotel. Very gracious and great food. Breakfasts with the room and yummy. We also enjoyed meeting their two yellow labs.

We found Hand Made Fish, the croft smokehouse of David Parham, a true delight. David smokes salmon that he carefully selects from Orkney and Shetland fish suppliers. He is passionate about smoking salmon to perfection, and what counts most is to always improve. Our visit to his smokehouse in Bigton, Maywick, was a unique food experience. He told us stories, explained the smoking process and offered us a fascinating tasting experience that learned us how different the pieces of his artisan salmon taste: tail, head, side, body. What a discovery! Everyone of our family, adults and kids, really enjoyed David’s stories and his wonderful smoked salmon. Simply the best salmon we ever had! A few days later we had the luck to also taste David’s smoked haddock he was so kind to deliver us in Lerwick. We poached it in butter and milk, ate it with potatoes and poached eggs, and loved it!

What a delicious dinner in amazing surroundings. We went for a bite as a special treat as it was a fair trek away but we will definately be back. I had the cod dish. The fish was perfectly cooked and the risotto and puree it came with were a perfect compliment. Hubby had the steak which was also good. We both then had the pistachio cake and poached rhubarb. The ambience and views were second to none and the food delicious. Looking forward to trying the fixed price menu the next time.

Delicious food prepared and presented beautifully. Flavours are incredible.

The occaision was my Aunt's 90th Birthday and 3 members of her family and their partners, belatedly gathered in her hometown of Lossiemouth as were unable to attend the actual Birthday in January. We read reviews and preferring a small local restaurant, and wanting to treat her to something really special, Willi and his team did not disappoint! From making the booking, all queries were answered promptly and suggestions made in a very helpful way ensuring that our Aunt had the very best time. The place itself was very smart with a wood burner and comfortable chairs, local artwork on the walls and excellent friendly staff who are well informed with regard to the food and what the chef can do if an alternative is needed from the menu. The food itself was sublime, beautiful fresh fish imaginatively presented with interesting flavours Willi really knows how to pair ingredients to make something spectacular. Great wine excellent food, the place was doing an absolutely roaring trade on a Thursday, every tabke was taken, do yoursrlf a favour and come here!

Dave the owner was very helpful and his hand dived scallops were amazing, my pic does not do them justice but they were still very tasty. Thanks for the use of the kayaks also 👍

Delicious beef and veg curry pasties. Also sampled the brownie, chocolate butteries and frangipane tarts. All fresh and thoroughly delicious. Do stop off and sample these delights

We were amazed at the welcome we were given,the crab we bought so fresh and tasty and the crab brioche we ate at the pier was wonderful, we will be back for more. We loved it. Thank you

The fish is really good and fresh.

Absolutely the best fish and chips in this area. Ig is a real treat and the service is always very friendly and professional.
