    We were there for a family dinner after a wake. The food and service was impeccable as always. Our server was the best and attentive to us and as we were leaving , she offered her condolences to our family. This is why I chose to come here after. Always great service and never had a bad meal here.

    Have been going to Exchange street since it opened. Was very surprised to find Sunday night was so quiet. Then we ordered our drinks (two bar tenders) and just a handful of patrons at the bar, the waitress came over to ask if we were ready to order our drinks will be up shortly. Ordered our food, the salad came before the drinks the food came right after barely touched the salad. OK, my husband got the short rib, the onion rings on top were cold inside as if been in the fridge all day and not warmed up. The lobster ravioli was good. I could not drink my drink and the waitress checked on us so early that I had not tasted my drink to tell her so at the end of the meal she noticed kept saying you should have told me. They did take that drink off the bill. I was surprised the new manager who was roaming around did not stop by to say anything. It has not been this bad since the first couple of years it opened.

    This restaurant is amazing! I usually order the Salmon for dinner and it never disappoints. I honestly can’t say enough about how fresh and tender it is. Last night we ordered oysters for our appetizer and they were delicious!! We haven’t had oysters this big in a restaurant in a long time!!! Everyone is great here from the moment you walk in the door. Thanks to the wonderful chef and kitchen staff. Excellent wait service and bartenders.

    We were a party of nine celebrating my son’s birthday. We had a big booth and it wasn’t too loud so we could all talk. Service was great. The waiter was very attentive. Everyone loved their food. Had really great oysters, bruschetta and calamari for apps. Dinner was delish from the lobster mac & cheese to the steak frites to the pork chop Milanese. Also had a gluten free Bolognese pasta dish and a salmon dish.. Topped it all off with desserts. Great job Exchange Street bistro.

    Short Rib was excellent. Scallops were tiny for the price. Chicken was way over cooked. Brussels sprouts were hard as a rock. The bourbon drink had very little alcohol. Even the waitress stated that doesn’t look right. The waitress got my brother in law another one and they made it the correct way. My sister in law and husband would not complain about the chicken.
