Very nice setting and great food. We had the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer which was perfect. The Lamb entree was great. The view of the bay and sunset is just beautiful. The room was hot as they could not control the thermostat and it was a warmish September day. However, that just made us go outside during our dinner and enjoy the views and take pictures for a bit.
This restaurant is fabulous. The staff were all really friendly and the place had a relaxed feel with fantastic views over the sea. The food was spectacular - we decided that the highlight was the lobster and smoked salmon salad - though everything else was outstanding too! Thanks for a great evening.
We loved our first meal here so much that we went back as soon as they opened the following evening. The specials menu has a great selection of local produce cooked beautifully, and the views from the restaurant towards Taransay are simply magnificent. Make sure you book in advance - surely one of the best places to eat on the Isle of Harris.
Great lunch & coffee! Very nice place and a fantastic view!
Great location, great kitchen, reasonably priced good quality food - I'd give it five stars but thought the drinks a little on the dear side.
Had a table with a great view of the sea, and watched a Gannet fishing.
Service is very good, I'd definitely return!!
Great ambience, breathtaking view and good food!!
It was the last night of the season and we were the only guests. Our waiter Voy, was friendly and attentive. We chose the duck appetizer and the lamb and cod dishes. All were absolutely delicious. I chose the Cheesecake with gin, grapefruit and pecans. Oh, sooo good. Machair offered the best service, the best food and the best views during our 3 eerks in Scotland. Congratulations.
What a wonderfully warm welcome we've received everywhere we've been in the Outer Hebrides... except here. It looks like a great spot that you've secured for your business but what a pity that we were 'greeted' by an incredibly rude young man working there who spoke to my girlfriend tersely and ignored the rest of us. We felt compelled to leave immediately, instead taking our custom to the friendly wee van down the road instead and would encourage others to do likewise.
