Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This restaurant has changed hands over the years, but remains popular. But our meal was not a great success. I enjoyed mine: the beef chop suey was tasty and tender and the fried rice was good. And we all liked the wine. My step son said that his prawns and noodles were fine, but there was too much chilli with them. My wife said that her squid was dry and tough (agreed) and was not cooked in the Chinese way: basically it was supermarket squid rings in breadcrumbs, overcooked and served with a spicy salad. Her tofu looked succulent, but was dry in the middle. The dish had too much soy sauce as well.
The waiting staff were friendly and efficient but none of them were Asian. And although we were offered tea after the meal, China tea was not on offer.
The bill was very reasonable.

I have visited this restaurant on 4 occasions in past 3 months. It's fantastic value for money, food is excellent as are the 2 girls who serve. That is the problem there are only 2 of them doing take away and table service. Seriously under staffed, not fair on these girls. Today was mother's day. The waiting times were crazy for take away, delivery or tables. Such a shame in an otherwise lovely restaurant.

We have been using this takeaway for years, it was fantastic, the food fresh, vibrant and delicious, always arrived hot and the meal for 2 was our treat on a weekend or celebration of whatever was going on, our go to on a semi regular basis. We have used less and less as the standard is not what it was, not full order, late arrival, cold food not to standard, the ribs on the last occasion were sour and the chicken balls had tiny pieces of the batter but no pieces of chicken, the staff seem friendly as always but it is just past the point, we will not use again, 1 star for staff, no stars for food. If this is new management then it is a shame, we will not be using this takeaway again and that is very unfortunate but the last meal we got was inexcusable, disappointing and we would go to Waterford for food before we would accept that standard, :( we last used Feb 28th, just getting to this review now ).

Visited the New Swan on July 1st. The food was amazing, the ribs were falling off the bone and so tasty. The chicken curry was great. Very light and perfectly spicy. The bubblegum cheesecake was fab as was the lemon cheesecake. I wouldn't normally go to a Chinese if I was going out for food but will definitely visit the New Swan when I go back to New Ross.
The highpoint of the visit, however, was the excellent customer service. There were 12 of us and some picky eaters in the group. All the orders were correct. The ladies were very friendly and professional. Could not sing their praises highly enough.
The New Swan is a definite recommendation.

I was delighted to see the place has reopened after its closure a few years ago. However I was disappointed with not friendly yet professional service. Also I would question the practices of the restaurant as it happens twice that there was man in dirty clothes having a loud argument with a man sitting at the table and then marched in and out of the kitchen. He looked very angry. I have refused to eat there as I deem this as highly inappropriate. I was disappointed as it used to be our favorite spot before the restaurant closed.

Very happy that "The Swan" has returned to New Ross. Was greatly missed. Tried all the other "Asian " restaurants in Ross will the swan was closed, and was disappointed with my findings, I had been spoilt . When I heard they where reopening, Happy days, Picked up my take away the other night, the first Friday of the re-incarnation, and they where busy, shows how much they had been missed, and when i got home, i realized how much i had missed tony's cooking, My review food 10/10 staff 10/10 best Chinese/ Asian food by far In New Ross and vicinity, all freshly prepared and tasty - Thank you again Well done to all
