Three people went to the Reg for dinner and a long overdue catch up. To say the food was awful is an understatement. One had fish which was undercooked, frozen, not fresh and sent back. The salad that was then ordered was thrown together. My pear and beetroot salad was just leaves, with four pieces of beetroot and three pieces of pear. The other order of chicken curry was uneaten. The staff said absolutely nothing to explain why. On arrival home I promptly got sick. NEVER will we return

Great food! We had the fish special and the lamb shank. Both were very good. Dessert was terrific (brulee and chocolate brownie). Service was ok but not great.

We were trying to find any restaurant in Waterford that was open on Monday night and The Reg seemed to be the best of limited options. The food was good and plentiful. The service (probably because it was a Monday night) was hit or miss. The atmosphere is Irish pub-like, which was fine with us. Overall value was pretty good for a rainy Irish Monday evening.

The food at The Reg was overpriced standard pub grub. I had to ask to have one of the dishes taken off the bill as it was so poor quality. It was too dark to see our food and although the staff were really lovely, we wouldn’t go again.

The waiting staff were lovely and I truly don't like to leave bad reviews but the barman was fierce loud and his use of bad language was awful. He seemed more interested in telling stories about himself than looking after the customers who had come to the bar to be served. We were eating a meal and it was so off putting other waiting staff were uncomfortable by his hyper attitude behind the bar. Might be an idea to speak to this guy.
