Probably one of the best restaurants in Toledo! I had the mussels for an appetizer and they were delicious! Main course I selected the Pork Chop! Wow…. Perfectly done and covered with a cream sauce and asparagus! Nice to enjoy watching the service teams prepare your meal.

Kennedy was truly amazing, very friendly and provided wonderful service on a Christmas Eve. The French onion soup was done perfectly and was not too pleased with the crab stuffed mushrooms. However, my New York strip was done to my liking and the dessert that Kennedy recommended was absolutely wonderful.

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.
