    Mushroom Swiss Burger
    Mandi S.

    We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday and going in it was pretty busy. We were aware it would be a wait which was fine. When they went to seat us they wanted to put us at a hightop. This was an issue as we had someone in our group that was obviously hurt and had a cane. We had to wait for a different table. We got our food and drinks ordered fairly quickly. Appetizer came out half cooked. The cheese in mozzarella sticks was not soft and hard for kids to eat. We watched more than three staff walk by and not pick up the dirty dish, including the waitress that had to move it to place the food down. We waited a long time for our food. Almost everything was overcooked. My food looked nothing like the picture. The potatoes were bland and had no garlic. My mother-in-law order a mushroom and Swiss burger with fries. Hers came out with no mushrooms, barely any sauce and had onion rings. Oldest boy had the ranch chicken sandwhich with onion rings. Had no sauce and fries. Youngest boy ordered kids cheeseburger plain with an extra al a carte burger (we checked and she said they could do it). 2 kidsburger meals came out. They tried to charge for the extra fries they had to bring and an extra kids meal. Not to mention that we never really saw our waitress again. We were never offered refills on drinks. When the manager came out she blamed the new cook. They gave a 15% discount but honestly it should have been more. There was not a single meal right, the waitress just disappeared, they never cleared the dirty dishes, the manager blamed the new cook. In the end another waitress came out and took the blame saying our waitress was new. The waitress never came back and never apologized. Was a very rough meal.

    Steak ordered was medium rare,came out well done. Manger ordered new replacement steak,after half an hour and table mates had finished,my steak came. Refused it of course. Manager did comp that part of order. People at table next to us had cold food. Kitchen staff apparently doesn't take pride in what they prepare. We arrived at 415 so not busy then. Will NOT be going back to defiance one again . Waitress was very good though. Not her fault

    Shrimp Alfredo

    It was the second day after reopening. We had to wait over 30 minutes for a table due to the limited capacity of COVID situation. All staff wore masks, they sanitized tables after diners left. They simplified the menu. Now they have $20 for 2 dishes deal. 2 side dishes or 1 entree with 1 main course. I had shrimp alfredo. Not the best one I had. It was way too dry, spaghetti sticked together, not enough of alfredo sauce to blend in. There were 10 medium size shrimp, a bit salty. The Caesar salad was okay. Hubby had ribs, I had a bite and it was good! It's a little spicy which I like. I came with family, 5 people in total. We were sitting at a booth by the window. I cannot look at the person's eyes who sat to my right because the setting sun was in my eyes. One waiter noticed that, pulled down the shade. Applaud to that.

    Seems to have gone down hill from when it originally opened. The food quality has been a disappointment for me.

Staff was exceptionally friendly, attentive and remarkably efficient. I ordered the 'Big Ick' and it was a transcendent burger experience. It was massive, juicy and bursting with flavor. If you're ever in the area, do stop by. It's a shining example of a great ma and pa restaurant. .

    Staying in the area and had been running all day, no chance to eat. Found Ickey's on yelp & it…read morestated they were open until 12, so at 9:55 pm we walked up to the door and saw that they closed at 10pm! Well I figured we would go ahead and check if they were still serving. The owner told us to have a seat and he would feed us! There were only a couple others in the restaurant. We both ordered a salad and drinks, our server was prompt with both, pleasant and made us feel like we were with friends! The salads were great, 1st time we've ever seen grill top fried potatoes mixed in with our steak and chicken salad's! Seemed strange but we are now fans of that! You just don't expect this kind of service anymore which is a sad. We cannot give a higher recommendation to Ickey's than five stars and that is indeed a shame :) We do not make a habit of entering a business at closing time and do not recommend it, but this simply could not have been handled better by the owner and his staff!

    Kissner's is a true Defiance staple--the oldest tavern in Ohio still owned by one family--and it…read moreshows in the warmth, consistency, and quality they've delivered for 95 years. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or late-night munchies, the full-service menu genuinely has something for everyone, from classic omelets to more adventurous options like pork brain. The ambience is part of the charm--it still has that same old flair, giving the space a nostalgic, welcoming feel that reflects its long history without feeling dated. I especially loved the little touches, like the coat and purse holders on the wall--if you blink, you might miss them (they were hidden under garland, lol). I had the Sizzling Boys Steak Hoagie with light onions and mushrooms, plus a side of Cheddar Cheese Curds--all excellent. Halfway through my meal, I couldn't resist stealing my partner's bacon and adding it to my hoagie... OMG, it took the flavor to the next level. Highly recommend that upgrade. Jake went with two French toasts, eggs, bacon, and waffle fries (subbed for home fries) and was just as impressed. The food was delicious across the board, and our waiter--whose name I unfortunately don't remember--was amazing and incredibly attentive. Great service, great food, and a timeless atmosphere--Kissner's absolutely lives up to its reputation.

    Passing through. Absolutely best food decision make. Just go and enjoy. beautiful Main Streetread more
