Restaurants near Oxbow Lake State Wildlife Area

Delicious food and great atmosphere! Made our anniversary night special with complimentary bubbly. Our entrees were cooked to perfection. The cheese and candied bacon appetizer was delicious! Never get rid of that, a must try.

Consistently good. I ate there for lunch and enjoyed the mixed grill. The chicken was fantastic and it also comes with a 4 oz filet and crab cake. I wish this pairing was available for dinner!

Service from our entry at the door to the season’s greeting when we left was exemplary! Even with a full house, our server was attentive, the drinks wonderful and the food was all amazing. The only complaint would be the volume, but I believe that was mostly due to the holiday dining crowd. We will definitely return!

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.
