    We went to The Exchange last night for the first time, celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary. Every part of our experience was wonderful. Our server was SO nice and the live music while we waited was good. My husband got the steak and I got the fish and chips, and then we each shared some of the other. Both dishes were delicious! The portions were generous and the price was reasonable. Especially given what you pay now for just a basic take out meal most places now. To our surprise, as we were winding down our dinner, our server brought out a brownie skillet dessert and a signed anniversary card! When I booked the reservation, it asked if we were celebrating a special occasion. I had put anniversary there, but was not expecting anything from it, other than maybe a “Happy Anniversary!” I’m not sure if this is standard for them for special occasions, but it was such a nice gesture, and we were so appreciative! To me, this is going above and beyond, and in any industry these days, having someone go above and beyond is so rare. So, thank you, to our server and everyone involved! We were so impressed from start to finish, and this will definitely be our go to restaurant for date night!
