The Exchange in Waterford

06/07/2025: Had a takeaway dish: house special fried rice. The food was delicious and generous in quantity. Had the chance to pluck it up from the restaurant and the ambience of the place made me wish I chose to eat in, instead. Stunning! Would recommend an in-person visit

01/07/2025: I had their 3 course set menu. I started with their spare ribs. I got two pieces with plenty of meat on them served with a sweet chilli sauce. I have to say that they were the most tender and moist spare ribs that I have had to date. The main course was beef Sichuan with fried rice. The plate was hot, the dish came out with dramatic sizzling, and the rice was freshly cooked. Overall an excellent dish. Decent serving with a good selection of vegetables and the beef was reasonably tender. The sauce was lovely even if it was on the mild side for a Sichuan. Proper coffee was served afterwards, not the cheap coffee that you get served in many Chinese restaurants. It came with a fortune cookie and a coffee biscuit. This meal also came with prawn crackers prior to the starters being served. The quality of the drinking water was also excellent. It is a large restaurant with good space between tables. The staff were lovely and you could see that it meant a lot to them that everything was ok for you. I did have a laugh when I got the bill which included the time that you ordered your food and opposite was exit, ASAP. Overall I received a lovely meal served by lovely staff. I would have no problem in recommending this Chinese Restaurant.
