Desha's Restaurant

Wow, what a gem!!! Stuffed peppers were very good. Best pork chop I may have ever eaten. Grilled perfectly, moist, thick and absolutely delicious. Carrot cake!This place in awesome.

My wife and I were driving to Indiana to watch Monday's eclipse, and we decided to stop for an early dinner. We decided to stop at deSha's Restaurant on US 68 in Maysville, Kentucky. We had looked at the menus of upcoming restaurants, and that one caught my eye. A very welcoming hostess showed us to our table. It is a very warm, comfortable dining room, with brick walls, large exposed beams above your head, and a huge fireplace. Being in Kentucky, my wife ordered a shot of Woodfore Reserve Rye, and I ordered Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale. My wife, who is a bit of a bourbon and whisky connoisseur said the Rye was so smooth, and she definately picked up the woody fruity caramel-y notes. As for the ale, it had a real caramel flavor and was excellent, even at 8.2% ABV. For starters we had Coconut Chicken. We expected wlamm pieces, but we're served 4 entre-sized pieces. The chicken was juicy and perfectly cooked, and the coconut breading was very delicate. For dinner we both had the pan-seared salmon, served with rice. We both selected sautéed whole mushrooms as a side. The salmon was luscious. A nice "crust" on the outside hid tender salmon. Mushrooms were a bit on the salty side, but the juice left after finishing them helped the rice. All in all it was a very nice dinner. We will be coming through here again, as we have good friends in eastern Indiana, so we will be back. Definitely a place to try.

Family fine dining at its best or relax at the bar and watch tv while you wait. Great food and good service every time.

Decided to try this place as we passed through. The service was fairly slow, despite very few diners. I'm not sure what vibe the restaurant is going for as the menu doesn't match the decor. The menu lacked in choices for us: almost to the point of changing our minds and eating elsewhere. We ordered the combo for appetizer, substituting stuffed banana peppers in place of coconut chicken. This food tasted like expired boxes of frozen appetizers from the freezer section at Wal-Mart. The fried cheese was a mix of warm and cold temperatures. We ordered boneless wings as an entree. When we couldn't decide between sauces, the waitress explained they use Franks Red Hot Sauce for the buffalo sauce and Sweet Baby Rays BBQ mixed with some bourbon. We picked the buffalo sauce. We also ordered the fish sandwich with fries and mac and cheese. The wings tasted like frozen prepackaged wings. The fish was overcooked and had an odd, sweet breading that just didn't fit the flavor palette of the fish. The fries were cooked nicely and were decently seasoned. The mac and cheese sauce desperately needed thinned. It was like glue and very unseasoned. This place is like an incredibly overpriced Applebees. Based on our experience, I do not recommend this restaurant.

I'm going with three stars. It is a nice place, probably one of the best is Maysville as it is a very small town. It was clean and the service was southern friendly. No good but friendly. I ordered a cup of chili (bland) and the chicken wing app for my meal. I got the wings as an app and a cup of chili for my meal. As I was raised not to start eating before everyone else has their meal I ate maybe four or five bland and cold boneless wings for dinner. She did hustle out the beers pretty quick so I also had a couple of Yuengling to wash the blandness down.

Old school vibe. Definitely caters to an older clientele. The food and service were good enough. Happy to say that we tried it.

The food was great but the service was even better!! It's a KEEPER! I will be stopping by every time I travel through the area.

This place was great! We got there right around 5 and it was already busy. We got seated right away and our service was very nice. I ordered the fried green tomatoes which were amazing, and fish and chips a small order (two pieces of fish) with fries and it's supposed to come with coleslaw but they did substitute another side for me. My mom ordered the three sides with cornbread, the loaded baked potato was really good, the coleslaw was also good. We were both eh about the cornbread. All in all we enjoyed it very much.

Good service fast delivery of our lunches. Way tooMuch dressing on Caesar salad. French onion soup good but I hate croutons as it should be a baguette in the soup. Husbands chowder was lukewarm but he liked three cheese grilled cheese. Nice atmosphere.

First time having this place, wish I could give it a zero star. The service was great but my husband ate moldy bread. It was gray in color and slimy when he bit it. We were told it was a grill mark but those are usually black and hard because I've cooked before. My food was so bland.
