Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Van Wert

Our dinner was excellent! We started with a shrimp cocktail along with each of us having a raspberry rosemary cosmos. My husband ordered a filet and I ordered the Norwegian salmon. Both entrees were superior! We also shared the sweet potato soufflé. Plenty for both of us. I also had the wedge salad which was great as the lettuce was very moist and crispy. The small loaf of bread was very tasty and just the right portion size for the 2 of us. For dessert, we ordered the cheesecake with berries. My husband received a complimentary small carrot cake to celebrate his birthday. Everything was perfect including our waitress, Sierra. She was excellent at explaining the specials and answering our numerous questions! We will definitely plan a return visit!

Our server was great and very attentive! The atmosphere was really good. The food was good, but nothing amazing. It was very expensive for small portions. $150 for 2 people

My party of three was passing through town on a business trip and googled restaurants near Defiance, OH, which resulted in Sweetwater Chophouse as an option. I made the reservation in the car, as we were 15 minutes out from the location. We were greeted and seated promptly. Our server Kathleen was very attentive and energetic with a readily infectious smile. I had the Crab & Lobster Bisque that was delightful, though the crackers were a bit stale. The Portobello Chicken was divine. The grilled char on the chicken with the creamy spinach sauce and mushrooms truly did hit the spot. My dining companions had the Salt Block Filet Mignon which he described as "Perfection on a Plate" and the Bourbon Chicken where nary a drop of sauce was left on the plate. Overall, our experience was enjoyable and should we find ourselves near Defiance, OH again, we shall visit Sweetwater Chophouse knowing a great meal will be had. As a final note, I do hope that our server, Kathleen, gets a huge shout out for above and beyond service and humoring us with our requests. Thanks Kathleen, You are a Rockstar!!

Great time Excellent staff, especially William, Ethan. Aaron

Consistently quality food. Professional servers. Bartenders are probably the best in Fort Wayne by far.
