We love to support local restaurants in our area---reserved 8 pm DeSha's for Sat night dinner. Was seated in a requested booth but, the noise was so loud from: 1. Music in the bar coming right through to the dining room from shudders they use between the bar and dining area 2. A private function in the main dining area that we had to raise our voices to hear each other in our booth. Rather than fight the bar noise and the private party noise, we just left.................perhaps mixing the private function with regular dining area was not a good idea in addition to the music from the bar coming into the main dining area. Sorry DeSha's..............

The best prime rib and Pub fish and chips in all of Cincinnati (if not Ohio). Always good live music on Saturday nights and their Rye Old Fashion is great.

The food is always great, our server was great - we did not realize when we booked it would be a live music evening. The music was a bit louder than expected so we had to talk pretty loud to hear one another at our booth down by the pond, we had wished it was a bit quieter but we will be back.
