Came in for brunch and had a very nice dining experience. Host staff and wait staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was great and food was fine. Good value for the money. The booth seating is comfortable, with plenty of room for four adults. Restaurant was very noisy, but this is expected on a busy weekend and with the vaulted wood ceilings.

My friend and I realized that today was going to be crowded and noisy, were able to get the back, single booth b/c we noticed 2 large tables set for guests. We had a great time as usual. We always come to DeSha’s b/c she lives over 1/2 hour away. George was our server and did a great job despite the amount of customers. Food was good. Your menu is wonderful for lunch! Suzanne Macke

I have a gluten allergy and appreciated the separate GF menu, and the cornbread was delicious! I had grilled salmon with rice. Very good. The seasonal cocktail, Christmas Kiss, was a delicious twist on an Old Fashioned.

The food and service were excellent. It was a little noisy, but it was a Saturday night and close to Christmas. So lots of people celebrating. Would not stop me from going back.

Decorated beautiful for Christmas. Food was fine, our server Gabby was perfect. The only thing I can complain about is,the young man that cleared the table, he did it so fast it made us us feel rushed, he actually took my husband plate before he was able to place his food in the carry out box. DeShay’s is one of our go to restaurants, we eat there often and it has always been perfect. I think because it was a holiday time they wanted to turn the tables quickly.
