Coolness in Highland

Recommended by the owner of our Airbnb. She said it was her favorite and it was very good. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with excellent service. We thoroughly enjoyed the dinner. I had the sweet potato soup and oriental chicken salad. My husband had the appetizer special of tuna and the linguini entree.Highly recommend.

This was my favorite restaurant we ate at during our two week trip to Scotland! The service is absolutely perfect! Our waitress was a delightful young lady from London/South Africa. She had real opinions and guidance on the menu. The appetizer was amazing, the main course was quite possibly my favorite seafood dish ever and the dessert was positively beautiful!

Very nice place would recommend! The food is good value for money and very enjoyable too, the staff were very friendly and attentive too!In the Rocpool we ordered: Tomato and Basil Risotto, Parma Ham Salad and Cream of Cauliflower Soup, (starters). Then we ordered Battered Fillet of Hake, Oriental Chicken Salad, Monkfish and Rice (main meal). For desert we had Coconut, Blueberry and Almond Cake, as well as the Creme Brule.Since there is a lot of food here I won't criticise them separately in paragraphs but I will give some important points on the dishes.Start of with the starters. I absolutely loved the starters they were are amazing and everyone enjoyed what they got. I had the tomato and basil risotto which was creamy and delicious and I could've eaten a huge bowl of this. The soup had a distinctive taste of truffle oil and felt very luxurious, it was tasty and silky and wasn't over seasoned. The salad was delicious. It tasted fresh and the pears were succulent yet still had a bite to them.The main meal was a slight disappointment, don't get me wrong they were delicious as separate dishes but together the dish just didn't seem to come together. The oriental chicken salad wasn't bad but wasn't great. To me it was too sweet and just didn't match well with the cashews. The crisp on the chicken was really nice though. The hake was delicious and we could not fault it. The monkfish and rice, like the oriental chicken, the separate components were very tasty but as a dish it didn't really come together. Despite this all three dishes were pretty great.The deserts really made the three course meal. The cake was fluffy, soft and nice but really I thought the creme brule was the best desert. It had a great crackle on the top and the custard just melted in my mouth. It was divine.Overall great place to come and eat. The staff are super kind but I would advise you too book online as it is quite busy.Photos include:Tomato and Basil RisottoParma Ham SaladCream of Cauliflower SoupBattered Fillet of HakeOriental Chicken SaladMonkfish and RiceCoconut, Blueberry, Almond CakeCreme Brule

Here for a couple days and we had made bookings in advanced. Highly recommend you do so as well. Service and food were great.onky thing they could do would be a greater selection on whisky. Which is just me being picky. Still 5 stars all the way around.

Brilliant - fantastic service, great food. Had the langoustine special which was great, and cote de boeuf main which was exceptional. Friendly and really helpful waiter too, he had an encyclopaedic knowledge of the wine list and pairings. They even had a decanter for the barolo we definitely didn't need to order, which was a nice touch. The perfect way to celebrate finishing a 3 day mountain biking route...

Probably our best meal in Scotland so far! The food is just amazing, couldn’t fault it one bit. Loved the scallops and chorizo starter, the venison was so tender and melted in our mouth. The cod was flaky everything was perfect. The waiter was so friendly and nice, great wine pairing recommendations! GREAT service, and attention to detail! And the amaretto sour was delicious! Don’t forget the desserts :) if you have space for it, get the cheesecake!

The food served at Rocpool was of high standard. The starters, the 4 different main dishes and the desserts we ordered were so sumptuous and deliciously tasteful that you will want to go again. It is the finest food that I have tasted so far during my trip. The price may be on the high end but it’s worth it. Don’t give amiss to this restaurant if you are in Inverness. 🤗

Amazing food, definitely worth a visit, and the service team were great.

I felt guilty not being able to tip as I don’t carry cash so an immediate 5* review is the least they deserved. I’m only here for the day and read up reviews about this restaurant, earliest I can get in for one person is 8:30pm. However Marta and her team but especially Marta brilliantly picked up the phone and ring me I can come sooner which is a blessing as I was getting hungry. The service from every single staff was exceptional, it really was. The food though… wow wow wow, delicious, it was more filling that expected and for once I had to turn down dessert. But the scallops and the linguine was so so tasty, pasta had a bite but the freshness of the seafood was so so unbelievable. Highly recommend them, I couldn’t even know anything about them. So lovely. This is a MUST visit if you fancy high end quality seafood for reasonably price. Again the service alone was exceptional. Please bring cash to tip them if you was fully satisfied with them. Enjoy the pictures. 👌👌👌

Love the food choices. Service was amazing👏. Thanks to the servers who will so helpful to meet my request of taking off the Haggis ( as I can't take any lamb meat ) so she asked the chef do a slight change of the menu choice. Was delicious 😋. Highly recommended ❤
