"while you could eat decent, their attitude is not. I don't think they appreciate Indians coming into their restaurant. sat with my man for dinner and was received colder than anywhere in Britain. it would have been okay if they didn't know much about customer service or weren't polite. but what was discouraging was that they visited all the other guests (from different nationalities) in their restaurant with a lot of warmth and regularly checked for their experience, while we feel unintentional during our short stay there for dinner. even after the question, they have not proposed anything to us in proportions or orders. if we needed something and our hand raised, they would just look away. So if they are Indians, they must skip this place completely. there are many possibilities close to, and even if eating there is half good, at least they will treat them with more respect."

"Wish we could actually say what the food was like but despite no one else waiting at the door for a table, the woman ignored us completely and kept writing away. We then went outside and tried phoning... Phone kept being disconnected after a few rings. Appreciate it was a busy night in Oban and that although restaurant had literally opened for evening service it might have been fully booked although all the tables were empty downstairs apart from 2. That's fine but with that level of customer service..eh our money can go elsewhere."

"I had been to this restaurant before and enjoyed it, so I decided to come back. However, it seems like there has been a change in ownership or chef since my last visit. The menu was very limited with not much to choose from. I decided to order soup after seeing the other dishes coming out looking unappetizing. Unfortunately, the chicken was cold, the vegetables and salad were soggy, and the chips were undercooked. What really put me off was when I saw the chef picking food off the floor and putting it on a plate while I was in the restroom. Fortunately, we had already received our food at that point. I would suggest avoiding this restaurant as the food is not up to par and the staff seem disinterested. It's a shame because the location is lovely. With proper management and attentive staff, this restaurant could be much better."

"We booked here for the first night of our stay of a half term trip . The hotel is set high above the town and accessed by a narrow twisty road, and only have limited parking. Although it was dark, the harbour looked lovely lit up at night and I am sure that during the day the view would be stunning. We were warmly welcomed by staff and took our seat at a table in restaurant situated in a large conservatory on the side of the hotel. It was warm and bright, great music selection being played and had a lovely atmosphere . There was a wide menu choice and a selection of specials. They also offered a selection of gin cocktails featuring local gin, which are highly recommended. The meals were well cooked great tasting and looked great on the plate. We enjoyed our meal so much we re- booked again for our last night , and although it was a similar menu just different specials) but we had the opinion there was a different chef on duty. The taste wasn't so good and meals did not look so elegant on the plate. Also on several of the dishes odd things listed on the plate weren't there or had been changed. It almost seemed that they had run out of supplies or maybe that the hotel was at the end of the season and using up stock. the meal was ok but it would have been nice if staff had apologized that the ingredients weren't available and what had been replaced, especially if people had allergies. It was still a nice meal and would recommend the restaurant to anyone visiting Mull especially later in the year when eating choices are limited."

"I'm really disappointed at eating in colquhouns, but even more disappointed with the managements lacking interest in my feedback that eating was not great. after my dinner in colquhouns I received an email asking for my feedback. I have submitted my assessment on...25. april 2022, in which it is explained that “the fish were nice, but the diligent on the fish was so hard that I could hardly cut it through. expects more of colquhouns especially at a price of £17.50 portions are also quite small. on the top the suppe was fantastic!” I then explained that the fish has set me the food again, which is a pity. I was not sure if the restaurant sees this feedback automatically, so I replied the feedback email sent by restaurant manager to tell them what my review said. this was sent on the 25th april 2022. by 7. mai I sent the restaurant manager by email and copied in the main reserve button and said that I was disappointed that they had not even harassed to answer or acknowledge my complaint. sarah responded friendly to the reservation desk and said that they “carefully hear that I don’t have a pleasant experience in our restaurant” then said “I can confirm that I have forwarded their below email to the responsible manager and they will be in touch in time. it is now 30 mai over a month since I complained, and still no one has harassed colquhouns to pursue this. I usually don't place bad feedback online, but that's three times, I gave them feedback that I'm not happy, and had no answer in the restaurant."

"On our last day here, killing time before the ferry, decided to try luncheon here. No expectations either way. And we were TOTALLY wowed it was just excellent. Trying not to put too many superlatives in this review, but it was really, really ace. We had a lovely table by the window overlooking the harbour where you could see dog walkers, children in wellies, crabbing, and little boats coming and going. Classic Islay. Then I have to mention the food. Jeez, it was top notch, and huuuuuuuge portions. I don’t think we’ve ever had four such consistently generous and fulfilling portions before. We had the scallops (massive, juicy, plentiful , the Crofter’s Platter, which was cheeses, hams, sausage rolls, salad, bread, chutneys; the soup massive bowl, loadsa crispy sourdough bread, and the fish and chips which was so big it draped over the plate! All delicious. Our guy, Andrew, was superb, so attentive and smiley and always bringing us more things, spoons, drinks, more bread, spoons, he was great. And we had a lovely chat with the very friendly and nice proprietor. She was wonderful. Really seemed to care about the place and her team. She told us all about the hotel and stuff it was really cool. We will most certainly come back here next time. You can’t necessarily get the best table every time, but we won’t mind if we don’t! : Oh, also, lovely clean loos!"

"This is an old pub next to the harbour with a good history. We had a very nice dinner . I had scampi and my wife had a sirloin steak both served with the ubiquitous chips and veg. Nice clean pub and quick service. Can be difficult to prebook especially if they have a function in the back lounge but worth the effort"

"I wasn’t sure what to expect from our holiday at the Portsonachan hotel as the reviews were so mixed. We enjoyed our stay, it was good but it could easily be great. We stayed in a 2 bedroom lodge with a hot tub Pros Lodge was spacious and we loved the upside down layout Hot tub was lovely and hot The food in the restaurant is of a good standard The breakfast hamper was nicely stocked and was delivered to our door Most of the staff we encountered tried really hard Views are breathtaking Cons The lodge was looking tired in places The kitchen was not well stocked, missing items, only 2 tea spoons and 1 coffee mug in a lodge designed for up to 6 people Our lodge smelt of cigarettes (I’m a non smoker and quite sensitive to it) With the exception of the lounge common areas in the hotel were starting to look tired Waiting on staff in the restaurant were over worked and some errors were made with ordering I’m not going to hold the brown tinted water against the hotel as we were notified of that and bottled drinking water was provided. Showering is a little off putting if you aren’t used to it So overall a mixed picture, we enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn’t visit again. This place was at the upper end of the nightly rate that we would normally pay but didn’t quite have the attention to detail that you might expect. 4 review as we liked it but could easily have loved it"

"Cafe is easy to find right on the street opposite the harbour. Please note that during COVID-19 social distancing restrictions BOOKING is essential. The quiche was great in flavour and taste and clearly home made. The only downside was the pastry had gone soggy possibly being microwaved to heat up. The coronation chicken was one of the best I have tried. The soup was also clearly home made lentil but my personal preference would be to have it thicker. Staff were very friendly and helpful. There is plenty of free parking along the street and around the back of the cafe. The cafe was very busy and popular with both locals and tourists. Good controls and procedures are in place for the COVID-19 virus. Definitely the best cafe for lunch in the area and I would recommend if in the area."

"a good meal. for the first time it was extremely fat and tasted like old oil. the meat was hard and not delicious. we thought we would try again, but the second time was worse. Vegetable spring rolls drip with oil, full cabbage and meat! pork heavy and chew to eat. noodles worse than pot noodles, dry, stringy and no taste. bon sprouts that were not properly cooked can also have been raw and said the menu was wrong and did not match the, so could not order what they wanted anyway. one of the worst outliers in Britain. much better on bute."

"The location is amazing but the tea room is the only place serving food and drinks for miles. We waited at least 40 minutes for our baked potatoes to arrive, I think they maybe went to pick them up first... I asked to take my food outside as the restaurant was hot and stuffy not sure if the windows were open) and they complained that swapping plates for takeaway boxes increased the wait. The food was bland. A bad experience overall. I think someone should set up food trucks in the car park and serve some healthy and tasty food and coffees. Bute is a beautiful island. The people are lovely, but the food and service are not up to scratch!"

"Decided on drive and dinner with my elderly Mother and opted for Helensburgh and The Ruby having been there in the past (last time about 2 years ago certainly) and found it to be excellent then. Not the case this time. Arrived just before opening and stood with a little family of 3 waiting to get in. Door opened at 5pm and we were, at that point, the only 2 occupied tables in the restaurant. We were told the window seat we took would need to be back for 7pm as it was reserved, not a problem. Orders taken just after 5pm for 1 starter, 2 mains with rice, drinks of 1 latte and 1 soda water with blackcurrant. The drinks came within minutes as did the prawn cocktail starter. Prawn cocktail was generous portion but had no flavour whole thing was watery. This was cleared from table about 5.15. Sitting at a table with no food about 5.30 a waitress asked us would we like to order anything else? Reply being we’d just like our mains please. By 5.45 still no food and other diners tucking into their main courses despite arriving after us. My Mum still hadn’t eaten a thing as she was ordering a main and planning a dessert . By 5.50 I decided to ask where food was and if it wasn’t ready we were paying for the drinks and one starter and leaving. I approached a waitress and was told the food “wouldn’t be long now” .. remember we’d to vacate table by 7pm. I honestly don’t think the order for our mains had been passed to kitchen until I asked. I returned to table and my Mum and me decided to pay for what we’d had and go so asked waitress for bill as we’d waited 55 minutes by then with no signs of the food. Before leaving I went to the bar area and asked to speak to the manager. Eventually the manager came over. I voiced my concerns about the time we’d waited and was met with complete disinterest and excuses.. “the restaurant is busy” (it was 50% full at this point) , if they struggle to cope at 50% I dread to think how they manage when it’s full. Then she said “the majority of people don’t complain” .. not really a great selling point is that ??? Apparently the lady was the owner and couldn’t have been less interested in the valid point I was making. We sat almost an hour with my mother having no food . Bad enough but the level of apathy and disinterest was surprising for what was once a gem of a restaurant (I believe it’s changed hands since my last visit) Certainly won’t be going back and I’d advise others to spend their time and money on a different restaurant in Helensburgh deserving of both of those and custom welcomed and appreciated"

"We have been many, many times to this Taj Mahal. Not been for a wee while, what a disappointment. Decor and setting is lovely, clean , tidy and inviting. Staff were very pleasant too, although there was a bit on a language barrier. Now the food… Starters of mixed pakora platter with lemon pepper mayonnaise sauce was nice, enough to share. I’ll break down the main meals here Tandoori Chicken on the bone: NO sauce would be served as it usually is. Trying to explain that there should be a Lentil Sauce fell on deaf ears. A sauce was suggested by the Waiter, however this did not complement the meal. The chicken certainly appeared to never been in a Tandoor oven EVER. It lacked taste and disappointment in general. Launguage problem again, so rice and sauce were charged separately. Coconut Nann Bread, certainly had coconut. When we pulled a piece off, yellow dry coconut flew everywhere. Also gave the appearance of never been insisted. Tandoor Oven. Chicken Tikka Masala. The chicken had been on a skewer but at risk of repeating myself, this I would dispute if it had seen the inside of a Tandoor. The sauce was deep burgundy, no cream or almonds to at least make it look appetising. Drinks. No Draught Beers/Lagers. The lager from a can was flat. Rum coke. Can’t go wrong there. All in all this was not a nice experience and paying over £60 , we were robbed. On a positive note, the young waiter was attentive, pleasant and tried to help with menu. What a shame he has a poor grasp of English/ Scottish language."

The staff is friendly and efficient. We dined here twice and would definitely return if given the opportunity. Highly recommended for the great value for the price!"

"Had a carry out last night and dont think we will be rushing back!!!!!!!!! We are normally pleased with our food but last night was horrendous, The food was to ready for a pick up at 7pm,(I think our food had been ready way before 7pm) when we got the food home, the naan bread was stone cold and the food was luke warm, thank the lord for plates being heated up in the oven. The guy front of house was weariing a pair of jeans and a dirty tee shirt as was the guy who came out the kitchen. There was too much sauce compareed to the amount of meat, and te sauces were pretty tasteless. I'm thinking here must be new people n here and its not for te better, so very disappointing!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"This used to be a lovely restaurant but the service badly lets it down now, new staff who seem uninterested in what they are supposed to be doing and actually come across very rude. A long wait to be seated even though we booked a table and about a 20 minute wait to order, it seemed chaotic even though there was lots of staff. No one checked if everything was ok and they didn’t even bother clearing the plates away or taking our order for dessert. There were lots of people at the bar for a wedding and they were right beside tables with people eating not ideal. Also if you have a food allergy I wouldn’t bother as they seem to treat it as an inconvenience and the young waitress was annoyed and then upset my son by saying he couldn’t eat anything instead of being helpful and making sure the food is safe like most other places would. It made us feel awful and completely ruined our day out. They also add a service charge to the bill which would be fine if the service was good which it certainly wasn’t will not be back here which is a shame as we previously loved it."

"A wonderful experience, made of so many parts brought together to perfection. The food was obviously delicious, so fresh, as Johnny, the server who had also caught the fish and seafood on his boat, said oh this cod was still swimming in the ocean at noon! the colours and the presentation, the overall atmosphere, the kindness and pleasantness of the whole thing. You don 't want to miss it. A memorable night indeed. We were lucky to stay in the Captain 's Cabin just next door which was also wonderful. I hear that the establishment is changing and I am looking forward to eat here anytime in the future, under any arrangement."

"This place used to be great, we would come here often but it’s really gone downhill in the past couple years. I called about a last minute lunch reservation. A nice girl on the phone said they had tables available for lunch and we said great we’d be there shortly and all seemed fine. When we arrived a very rude woman asked us if we had a booking. I said no we didn’t and she said they don’t have any tables and that we need a booking. I told her I’d just called the restaurant and explained the call I’d had and how the woman on the phone said to come down for lunch and that they had space for us. She said no they hadn't received a call (I double checked after this and I did have the correct restaurant/number when I called). She was rude and unhelpful and didn’t seem to care about our experience, and on top of that the place was absolutely empty apart from one table. This solidified our choice to not come back again. Save yourself the disappointment and go somewhere else."

"Popped in for a fish supper. It was really excellent. A good-sized portion of fresh fish in lovely light crispy batter. The chips were nicely done and plenty of them. Top Tip... As with all fish and chip takeaways. If you want your fish and chips to remain crisp, then don't overly soak them in vinegar and keep them open. I have always found it best to add my own amount of salt in chippies. Servers can be rather heavy-handed. NB. If you choose to have a vinegar liquid poured all over your hot food and then ask for them to be wrapped up and sealed so that the moisture can not escape. Don't expect crispy fish and chips when you open them 10 minutes later! Good luck."
