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.

DeSha’s is one of our favorite places to go. Love the atmosphere and the food is always good. Service is typically excellent. Our server at this visit was a little slow to acknowledge us and follow up. Took us a while to get water and then had to flag him down to get drinks. But once with us, he was engaging and funny.

I love DeShas! They offer a wide variety of food and everything I've tried is really good. Service is great, hostess station is super friendly. It does tend to be an older person's place for some reason, but no matter what your age, give it try!
