deSha's - Maysville — Restaurant in Maysville

This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The wait for a table was very minimal for starters, which was great. The seating was well done, very comfortable and not cramped like many places seem to be now days. The staff were very pleasant and friendly, more so after we revealed that we were first timers here. They were very helpful in suggestions menu wise and really knew their food, which was very helpful. The menu was very nicely diverse in selection. Appetizers were brought out first - we had the French onion soup and stuffed banana peppers, which were very tasty. Lisa had salad, which was very good, as most of the salads she orders are. To be quite honest, I had never had them before, and the taste, as served here, were very much beyond expectations. It was also large enough (five)We were given ample time to get through the appetizers and then on to the main courses..... Salmon for me and fish and chips (small portion) for Lisa. Believe it or not, the fish portion was enough for two - generous and filling. My salmon was equally generous and done just right with a mild smoked flavour, capturing the salmon but not overly so. As a side note, I also ordered cornbread....... This square of cornbread was fantastic both on its own and with butter. By far one of the better cornbreads I've had eating out. As always, we took a sample of each other's fish and were very pleased indeed. Dessert was offered, but we were so full from the dinner that we just couldn't.... This trip🙂! The price was very reasonable as well and very friendly. So, to sum it up, great atmosphere, friendly staff, fantastic food, and won't break the bank. We were passing through and decided to try this place and are very glad that we did. We shall definitely stop in again and would recommend this place to everyone, locals and travelers alike (although by the crowd, I already know it's a hit locally). Definitely a place to enjoy the best of food done right. And don't forget...

I took my wife, 11 year old daughter, and 9 year old grandson out here to eat. We drove from Hamersville which is about a 50 minute trip one way. We've been here before and generally have a pleasant experience. Tonight we were seated in the front left room as you enter at a table across from a party of 25 older folks that were extremely LOUD. I asked the waitress when she came to take our order if she would mind moving us. She replied they are just about finished. I couldn't carry on a conversation across our table because they were so LOUD. 20 minutes into eating our dinner they finally left. At that point I asked to see the manager. The gentleman that came over ( never gave his name) asked what I needed. I explained to him the previous and he asked what I wanted. I told him I wanted to be fair but would like a discount. He asked what do you want ? I told him a fair adjustment to our bill. The next words out of his mouth should cost him his job....or teeth. You tell me what you want, you're the one complaining. I told him 25 percent. He said fine and walked away... Never came back. Our bill after the $12 adjustment was $40 and change. I gave the waitress $50 and told her no change needed. Had we not asked to be moved it would have been different. Had I not seen the next several parties that came in after us seated in quiet sections away it would have been different. This manager has NO business running a business. He has ZERO interpersonal skills ,and the personality of a toad. On a plus side the...

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. Definately a...
