Gasta Port Righ — Restaurant in Skye

The restaurant is in a beautiful area. The windows are huge and the view is absolutely beautiful. It is a big open plan place and as such it is quite airy and bright. The food is okay, they do sandwiches, pizzas and cakes mostly. The service is usually great as well and most of the staff is friendly, however, last time I was there a grumpy older waitress told me that my little dog can't sit on my lap. She said "the dog has to be on the ground". I found this outrageous for 3 reasons: by this point we were in the restaurant for about an hour and no one complained about my dog on my lap the dog was NOT on their furniture but on my lap. It is entirely up to me if I want to have my dog on me or not she was quiet and polite the whole time ( she did not bother other guests and didn't try to eat from my plate) She is a 4 kg tiny poodle, and she is not used to sleeping on the cold ground, nor would I want her to do so. Therefore I quickly left and will probably not go back even though I loved this place on our...

All I can say is meh. The hostess was friendly and helpful! The food was okay, but nothing mind blowing. It feels very tourist-y and not super local. If you like a tourist spot, then it’s great! If you’re looking for something local to the town, this is not the place. The kitchen is open air and you can see the staff making all of the food. Our server was not friendly to begin with, and then forgot to put our food in. She was not apologetic nor did she seem to care. I wish I could say nicer things about this place, but the server honestly killed the vibe. Other staff members were nice, but waiting 40 minutes for a single pizza when at least four other tables ordered food after us and received food before us is infuriating. My husband and I have both been servers before and understand that sometimes you make mistakes. The lack of accountability and carelessness by the server/restaurant was frustrating. Bummer of a dinner to celebrate our honeymoon. Not...

We were somewhat disappointed by the pizza after reading the reviews. We're used to Neapolitan style wood-fired pizza so were looking forward to it, but when we got two of the Dhà (tomato, garlic and oregano, then we added on cheese and other ingredients), the flavour just fell into the "Okay" category. The dough wasn't great in flavour (normally you can enjoy the crusts too, but these tasted cardboardy), and the toppings were fine but not "Wow". It was nice how you could add on extras to any of the pizzas inexpensively though. We didn't try the mac and cheese but it also looked like a nice option.

Overall definitely recommend giving this place a go yourself, and to check out the adjacent cinema and candle shop when you're in Portree. It's great how the business is supporting the local Skye economy and it might be that we were in the minority as it seemed like there were many happy customers in the restaurant and on the reviews. It just...
