Review of the Riverbank Hotel Restaurant, Wexford

22/10/2011 16:56

I had a very accpetable lunch here on a Friday while waiting for a friend.  There is good parking across the road, and the hotel entrance is very difficult to find.  The staff were in the midlle of decorating for halloween and it looked like it was going to be fabulous.  The bar was very plain and dark however I got a nice seat near a window.  The waitress was straight over to see if I would like a drink.  There was a very good selection of food on the menu, although pricey.  There was no choices attributed to local producers, which I felt was a pity.  I had the 6oz steak with a salad (14 euro)  I asked for this rare, and it came well done, but I can appreciate that a 6oz steak is quite hard to get right. I followed this, in the interest of sampling, with the chilled chocolate and caramel cheesecake, it was very pleasant although slightly reminiscint of condensed milk.  I had a pot of tea, which arrived in a very dingy pot!  Overall the staff were lovely, and the food good, but expensivve for what you got.
