Real Estate Broker in Harrodsburg Ky ... we will be going back ... used the word great several times but that was the way it was!!!!

Never again
We have only been here once after hearing from so many people how wonderful it was. Those people need to get out more. The restaurant was incredibly crowded when we went, so much so that you could not get in or our of your seat because you were wedged against the people at the next table. The service was terribly slow and when our food finally arrived, some entrees did not arrive until others had already finished eating. In addition, some meals were cold and had clearly been laying around for a while. The food was bland, and definitely nothing to write home about. Once was more than enough.

DeSha's has one thing going for them: they have a great hot brown (I'm not being funny, it's an open faced sandwich). However, our neighbors to the south would describe the rest of the menu as, "no bueno." Location is great though. right across the street from rupp arena which is right down town but there are forty other restaurants with much better food within walking distance. Go elsewhere. As another option, I recommend Dudley's which is literally a quarter mile away and very very good

The service [is horrible]...I spent more time watching the barmaid sit at a table and converse with her buddies than I did being served. Ordinarily, this wouldn't be such a bad thing, but I had to APPROACH HER to be served!!!! The same sad story happened when my brother came to town, and later in the evening had to find food for him, his wife, and my two daughters. The waiter actually sat for an extended time at a table...while our dining needs were ignored. I have given up on DeSha's, once and for all, and I live in Lexington! DO NOT GO TO DeSha's!!! You'll be SORRY!
