    We came 30min early to see if we can get a drink, but luckily we got seated which was perfect. From that point there was nothing great about this experience. I asked for “while you wait” and a starter to be brought at the same time as my wife didn't order a starter. 40 minutes later all the food arrived including mains. That caused me to rush starter to not have main food cold. I must of looked like a hungry person. Our waitress wasn’t very cheerful either. Maybe she had a bad day. Other waitresses seem to be a bit more helpful. I have asked her for a drink of which she has forgotten so had to ask someone else again. We had a corner table and felt forgotten as nobody even came to ask if we would like another drink etc. they might of been busy but thats not an excuse. Also nobody came in the end and after a long wait we got up and paid at the till. I heard good things about this place so thought we will try it. Decor was nice and all but overall experience not su much. I am not picky person and don't normally leave reviews, but feel like I have to on this occasion. Hopefully that will be helpful feedback too.

    Excellent meal in a wonderful restaurant in Inverness. Ate here with family on Saturday night and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The menu choices allowed us all to select different dishes and every one was a winner. The staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. We will definitely visit again on future visits to Inverness.

    Limited menu. Pate came with extremely small amount of tiny Melba toast Nice decor but too dark. Almost needed torch to read menu Slow service Staff could have been a little more engaged Overall okay but not a great experience
    The White HouseResponded on 9 December 2024
    Thank you Dawn for leaving honest feed back about your recent visit. We are sorry to hear you found our pate to small, we will bring this to the chefs attention. We are currently giving our front of house team some training to improve our service. We hope to welcome you back again to show what service our normal standards are.

    Very pleasant ambience and polite, efficient service- ideal for a quiet lunch. Quality of food, unfortunately, was not great- certainly not value for money. I would return for drinks only but give the food a miss!
    The White HouseResponded on 25 November 2024
    Hello Andrew, Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the service and sorry to hear you didnt enjoy the food. We do aim to have the best quality ingredients and try to balance that with the price we charge, I'm sorry you felt the balance wasn't there. We hope you come back to try us again in the future.
