Restaurants near Holgate Avenue Historic District

Large selection to appeal to various tastes. Always good.

The food was excellent and well-prepared. The carpaccio, fried pickles, filet, chicken, mashed potatos, polenta and drinks were perfect. The chicken gravy was a little too salty and the brussels sprouts a little too sweet for one diner's taste, but most diners prefer more salt and sugar than we do. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

Had a nice dinner at the Sweetwater Chop House. Our second visit. I chose the Wagyu Steak and it was cooked to my tastes. Started the dinner with the Brussels Sprouts. I do not eat Brussels Sprouts anywhere except here. The sauce it is cooked in makes them palatable. No dessert this trip, but I would like to make a separate visit just for dessert. The others in my party had no complaints on the dining experience. Made reservation but was not necessary.

We have two favorite places in Defiance, Ohio to eat and this is one of them. If you are from out of town, it is worth a trip to visit and eat at Dark Horse Social Club. The staff and owners are so nice. The menu is changed several times a year, so there is always something different to try.

Outstanding quality and taste. Attentive, timely service with just the right amount of respect for our desire for a private meal. Carb cakes fresh full flavored and perfect balance. Filet magnificent!
