Delicious meal, and an excellent evening all round - lovely to meet Petra and enjoy such delicious fresh local produce. I'd recmommend this restaurant to everyone - vegetatians and meat eaters alike. It was all superb, and - speaking as someone who doesn't drink alcohol - the tea accompaniments were great.
WE'll definitely be back next time we visit SKye.

What an adventure to get there... but so worth it! Truly wonderful food, every aspect of every course of the set menu was a delight. Presented with such care and attention and served with a different tea, too! We recommended it to everyone we spoke to during our trip to Skye, and was not surprised to find most people knew of it either from personal experience or reputation already!

Heel erg genoten van het menu wat met veel liefde is bereid, lekkere thee bij elke gang. Borden waren zeer zorgvuldig, compleet met eetbare bloemen opgemaakt. Alle smaken waren in goede proporties per gang gekozen.
Zeer vriendelijke dames waardoor we een hartelijk en warm verblijf hadden.
Restaurant is ook sfeervol ingericht.
Sta je open voor creatief eten met bijpassende thee dan kun je met een gerust hart hiervoor kiezen!

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening with Chidakasha Skye. We discovered a calming ambience on arrival created with soft lighting and lit candles keeping the top-up water for our tea warm. Their menu is a feast for the senses. Beautifully presented dishes incorporating the freshest ingredients, combining incredible textures and flavours which also tasted a m a z i n g. Our memorable dinner began with Mix nuts with toasted sesame, thyme and isle of Skye Sea Salt with fresh minted water; followed by an entree of Confit croft turnips served with full medames, almond milk, roasted red pepper and pumpkin relish and olive oil; Baked on the premises Wheat and rye sourdough; a main course of Middle eastern aubergine stew served with fragrant chickpea Carmague red rice, beetroot and sprout salad, prune and date chutney, and moong bean crisp; and was completed with a dessert of Lemongrass poached pear with Skye berry compote, cashew cream, and pistachio praline. We are not tea drinkers and throughly enjoyed sipping Phoenix Honey Orchid Oolong tea and also Red Dragon tea during our evening. Chidakasha Skye comes highly recommended from us for a beautiful dinner where the stars align to produce a thoughtfully conceived menu, welcoming and relaxing ambience, and where service is very discreet yet attentive. For dinner out or a special occasion do make a booking - you will not be disappointed!!!

We are not vegetarians so was not initially positive about visiting. But was pleasently surprised. On a very wet and windy Skye evening found the cosy dining room perfect. Had the 3 course menu, The soup was warming and spicy ( I enjoy spicy but would have been too spicy for my wife.) Folowed by a beautiful butternut squash with rice all cooked to perfection. First course was served with sour dough bread another serving would have been nice to go with the squash. Finally a lovely chocolate gnash. Each course was served with a complimentary different tea ( no license for alcohol)
Will certainy visit again
