This is one of our favorite places! The onion rings and fried mushrooms are outstanding, they remind me of the ones you get at the fair! My husband and friend love their prime rib, their ribs are huge and their pies/desserts are amazing! Our favorite server is Mandy! She treats us like family every time we visit! Quite possibly THE best server we've ever had! read more

Fried pickles... Big Salad... Prime Rib was K! I have had better in C.H. Would have liked a little more attention, as tea glass stayed dry too long. I will go again, just nitpicking I guess. read more

Adelle was our server and she rocks! Attentive and knowledgeable without being obsequious. The pork sandwich was excellent. My wife's daily beef special was very dry. We were quoted a 20 minute wait for a table and were seated a few minutes ahead of schedule. Will I return? Probably not, but I am not a local. read more

This is a wonderful gem. It's like an old diner, but with lot if seating. The food was amazing!! We had the fried mushrooms as an appetizer...they were delicious! The service was terrific. We picked it as a halfway point to meet for lunch. I see many more meet halfway lunches in our future!!! read more

This place makes you feel like your grandma cooked you dinner. Literally every bite tasted like it was actually homemade and not just a Sysco foods recipe. The staff is very friendly and happy to help. Even on a Tuesday lunch, they treated me as if I was having the premium steak dinner. The vibe here is great. I am a road warrior and I miss homemade food. This place made that happen. read more

Visiting Washington court house this weekend and stumbled across this gem! It seems a popular spot because the parking lot was packed! The parking was a bit awkward and hard to park . We had to wait only 15 mins for a table and the person working the door was so kind and smiled a lot ! We were sat and I already knew I wanted the full rack of ribs and two sides special. (27.99) we started with willow chips. Homemade chips with white cheese, blue cheese, and bacon. Different and delicious! Crispy chips with big hunks of cheese! Yummy!! The place is super clean with neutral decorative pieces around , our waitress was nice and seemed stressed! The people next to us were running her ragged! For that reason we had to wait quite a bit on our drink refills. The ribs were FALL off the bone and so so good !! Delicious sauce too! The side items were just "ok" green beans and mashed potatoes. Would def eat here again! read more

Our family ate at The Willow tonight for my husband's birthday. We had not eaten here before and chose it due to its location. When we got there, they had an hour and 20 minute wait. After talking to a woman that has been to this restaurant before, she said this is abnormal and probably due to Valentine's Day. Thankfully we had made a reservation and were seated right away. Our server greeted us right away to take our drink orders and explain the daily specials. We ordered our food and did not have to wait long for our food. Everything was delicious and just as we ordered. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and comfortable seating. Our server was so pleasant and prompt with refills and to check that we were doing okay. We will be back! read more

What a delightful experience! The prime rib was outstanding and the 10 ounce New York strip was absolutely perfect. Loved the twice baked mashed potatoes and even the salad was more than just basic. Complimentary loaf of bread and the waitress was so kind. Will definitely be back and next time will get a dessert! read more

A very tasty diner with friendly service and delicious pies. Nice stop on our trip through the state.

This is the local family restaurant in WCH. It's all ok but nothing is special. The best thing about it was that the service was fast! We started with deviled eggs. A bit too much vinegar in the mix and no other flavors came through. Just ok. Next we split a mushroom Swiss burger and a chicken bacon ranch wrap. This wrap was listed as a feature item but again it was just ok. The burger was cooked well done (not a fan of well done here) - but had a good fire grill taste. There were no other seasonings so it was burger, onions, mushrooms, cheese served on a plain bun. Again, it was just ok. Sides were broccoli and Cole slaw. I don't think I'd come back for just ok. read more

I went recently with my family, Ive never had a complaint,food is always good. But the noise is really loud I think because of the floor and ceiling. read more

My third visit for the prime-rib and it was again excellent! Instead of the salad I had the French onion soup which was a slight up charge but excellent ! Also instead of the mashed potatoes and gravy I had their hand breaded onion rings that were delicious! I took home a pice of their chocolate pie that was wonderful! I've upgraded my review rating from 4 to 5 stars not because the food was any better as its alway been excellent, but because this time we were a birthday party of 9 older individuals, and our server took the challenge in hand with flexibility and professionalism without missing a beat. I also got to try one of the fried chicken livers which were wonderful! Another great meal and experience! read more

The Willow - My third visit prime rib medium rare, onion rings, real horseradish, fresh baked bread for the table. - American Near Me - Washington Court House, Ohio

The service was great. Our waitress was prompt, friendly, and attentive. The food was "down home" and finger lickin' good. my husband enjoyed the fried chicken and I enjoyed the salmon. The pies were amazing. My husband had the coconut cream and it will put you into a happy coma state in no time at all. Haha. Their pies are homemade. Flaky crust was delicious and the fillings were superb. I had cherry. read more

We were driving through Ohio on 35, and I have a friend who lives in Washington Court House, but we'd never been there. My husband is a U.S. History teacher, and the name has always intrigued me, so I suggested we stop there mid-afternoon on a Tuesday for dinner. Thanks to a quick Yelp! search, we found The Willow, and I'm SO glad we did! It was wonderful! Since it was Tuesday, the Baked Steak was one of the daily specials, and as we learned from the sign, Chicken and Noodles are ALWAYS a daily special, all day, every day. My husband was thrilled! There's a full bar, so we were also able to have a drink (their Long Islands are on point!) and relax for awhile before resuming our drive. We decided we HAD to have dessert, too. I'd seen pictures of the Fried Cheesecake in the Yelp! reviews, and alerted my husband, a huge cheese cake fan. Then I learned that it was "two for $5" pie day, but the Fried Cheesecake, not being a pie, wasn't included in that special. Sooooo ... I had to get a piece for myself, and another one to go! I can rationalize just about anything that has to do with pie! I had the peanut butter pie at the restaurant, and the banana cream to go, which I ate last night, the day after we were at the restaurant. Both were delicious, but I'd go with the peanut butter again if I could only choose one -- it was light, fluffy, and creamy, and not at all too sweet. Perfection! Service was excellent, parking was ample, and we were seated immediately when we arrived, even though it was already fairly busy mid-to-late afternoon early in the week. We're going to be in Dayton in a few months for a weekend event, and we're already planning a side trip down to Washington Court House so we can visit again! read more

The Willow - BEST birthday experience. Good food and great staff. - American Near Me - Washington Court House, Ohio

First time here for my friend and I. I ordered the Reuben and onion rings which were EXCELLENT!!!! I would definitely order that again. Very good portion of corned beef and also onion rings which were FABULOUS!! My friend ordered the chicken livers which I am not a fan of but tried one and it was very good. She enjoyed them. She also ordered the fish and said it was slimy - but they took care of that. Nice friendly staff also. Seated right away. We heard they are known for their desserts but were too full to try one! read more

Stopped in for lunch today-what a treat! There were 5 of us and we were seated quickly and our waitress was friendly and attentive. I had the Ruben with sweet potato fries, very good, would definitely order it again. 3 of us had a piece of pie and the crust was one of the best I've ever had. Strawberry rhubarb is one of my favorites and The Willow didn't disappoint ~ delicious read more

We have been here several times over the past weeks and every experience has been great. The Willow has the feel of a down home local diner and the food choices are good for all diets. Tilapia and salmon are excellent. Their salads are more than just lettuce as many restaurants serve these days. When in the WCH area, The Willow is THE place to dine. PS - their selection of homemade pies is second to none! read more

We were in Washington Court House at lunch time so we looked on Yelp and went to the Willow which was the highest rated restaurant in town. I see why. Outside is unassuming but inside was cheerful and super clean. We both ordered the fried fish sandwich with onion rings. Portions were not overly large but was enough. Taste was outstanding and not greasy tasting. Advertising was they specialized in pies and they came through. Many choices but I love sugar cream and it was one of the best I ever had. Wait staff looked extremely busy hustling about but was efficient and attentive. read more

An extremely clean refreshing place to eat! Food was excellent, served quickly, nice portions, and not expensive. Fried Chicken and Baked Steak specials were fantastic. Genuine home made pies that are made fresh daily (12 kinds!). Highly recommend!!! read more

Quick, delicious, with an attentive staff. Open floor plan with standard layout. Great variety on the menu. I got the mushroom Swiss burger, which features a hand pressed patty and big mushrooms.

Best onion rings on the planet! Great service, great owners-good little hometown restaurant.

A friend referred us to The Willow and I'm glad we tried it! After looking over the large menu I decide on the Homemade Chicken & Noodles with green beans & ham bits. it was perfectly prepared and came out hot. I then decided on the Cherry pie with ice cream. I asked her to warm the pie. It was very good also! My husband had the Prime Rib. He ask for it rare with macaroni & cheese and onion rings he love it. He chose the sugar cream pie. I tried it all also it was great. The waitress, Katie patiently answered all of my questions and followed up with us 4 times and filled our drinks all with a smile read more

Chicken and noodles are home made style and pretty darn good. If you like them on the dry side ask that they be well drained. Don't rely on the house bread here. If you get them normal (some broth included) it kind of weakens the taste as their broth is pretty bland. The noodles however are great. Hamburgers tend to be on the dry side. When they are good they are awesome. When they are just ok you can get one cheaper at a fast food joint. Chef salads are really good. Be sure to ask for extra boiled eggs! Bread is not very good here. If you like bread and really want bread with your meal you may want to somehow bring your own. French fries are just ok. Ask for well done to get a good order of fries. Definitely not an item for carry out. read more

This place is great! Good food, excellent service. The daily specials are an amazing deal. I'll be going back soon and often!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful food choices. We had a club salad that was amazing and more I could eat, and a Ruben with corn beef that was tasty. Service was great. Atmosphere was very pleasant and relaxing. read more

First time here before a Football game. Got here about 4:30. My wife had a wrap, I had the fried Perch. Wrap was excellent and my Perch was too. Wish they had let the oil dissipate before serving but it was really good. Took 2 pieces of Pie home, a Coconut cream and a Pecan cream. They were both Fab. Parking lot small and they get really busy here. Great food, good portions and prices are extremely reasonable. Too bad we live 2 hours away or we would come more often. Give it a try you won't be disappointed read more

What a great place! Excellent service, delicious food, and a family friendly atmosphere. Make sure to save room for pie!! Yum!

Out on a Harley ride on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon and found this great place. The guys had the Italian sandwich and a Reuben. The Italian they raved about. The Reuben was fine but nothing special. Prime rib sandwich was yummy and burger was good size and flavorful. Onion rings soooo good with the light breading. And the fresh berry pies with light crust were great too. Yummy lunch we would highly recommend. read more
