    Curtis is not a good server. Had to ask for everything- our order to be taken, water refill, tea and coffee refills, box, our bill. I may as well have waited on us by myself. He did however bring a birthday treat for my husband. The food and menu are good. The music was annoying and the wrong kind for your establishment. You have a great location and building. You should take advantage of it.

    Wee had four for a dinner to get acquainted and to talk about a bunch of things. We were disappointed to find there was live music and we were seated pretty close to the band. It was Friday night and they couldn't move us. It made our conversation a bit more difficult than we hoped. Food was good. My fried chicken (breast filets off the bone) was a bit dry. My wife's Pub fish and chips was very good and a large size piece of fish. Service was very good.

    Fish and chips were delicious but the onion soup was not hot, just warm. Service was great and our server was very friendly.

    Warm & cozy dining experience! DeSha’s never disappoints! We met friends on a busy Wednesday evening & remembered why this was a favorite. Nice menu variety/ good wine selection/ great server. The cornbread is a delicious treat- complimentary. Fish & chips portion is huge. Pretzel prime rib sandwich is husband’s favorite.

    Was a quiet evening—not as crowded as usual—so we had a lovely booth by the lake. Very pleasant atmosphere. Wish - server had returned in time for me to order another glass of wine before Happy Hour ended, but this is not world-shattering and did not diminish our experience.
