I called, and this is what I heard in a very shrill voice: "WE ARE NOT TAKING ANY CARRY OUT ORDERS!" I said "Pardon me?" Because I wasn't sure I heard her correctly, as she didn't even say hello or the name of the pizza joint when she picked up the phone. She repeated: "WE ARE NOT TAKING ANY CARRY OUT ORDERS!" Wow! What if I wasn't calling for that reason? To the ownership: Get a grip on your staff's rudeness. You are in business because of customers who dine in AND carry pizza out. Good lord!!!

When in downtown Sandusky, you can't find better food, better service, nor a better vibe than Shore…read moreHouse Tavern. The place radiates friendliness and you truly feel like a regular when you walk in, warmly greeted right away and taken care of the entire duration of your meal. My family had returned after a long day of theme park food and I needed something lite - and their seasonal salad was just what I needed. It was a very generous portion with some of my the sweetest strawberries I've ever had with candied walnuts, feta cheese, and a delicious vinaigrette to go along with it. Skip the theme park dining when you can - or at the very least, supplement it with this delicious cuisine and friendly service.

Our first night in Sandusky landed us in this small tavern right across Lake Erie…read more Very casual vibe and everyone was very accommodating but seemed overwhelmed. For an appetizer, we ordered the wedge salad and the Buffalo Chicken dip. I got the perch dinner for my main course. The kid got a chicken sandwich and my wife got the brisket Mac n cheese. They said that the kitchen was backed up. Honestly, it was totally not an issue. We were just relaxing, watching the game and chilling after a 7 hour drive from NJ. What was an issue was...... appetizers came out exactly the and time as the main courses. WHY????????? It couldn't have taken that long to throw blue cheese, bacon and tomatoes on a chunk of lettuce and pump out the Buffalo Chicken dip and then worry about the main courses later. Now we have to decide, do we want to eat the entrees or even touch the appetizers. That alone always ruins everything. Food was very good. Like I said, people were very nice but you just can't bring everything out at once. Defeats the point of "starting" with something.

We've been here before and it was pretty good, but we went last night and they discontinued their…read morebread service. That was one of the things we loved and they don't have it anymore. Food wasn't that great and it was $150 for 3 people. We only had one appetizer and entrees. That's a little crazy, so we probably won't be back.

Excellent.

The dish was excellent, the polenta was soft and creamy, really enjoyable. My friend tried their fillet mignon and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Their wine list is limited but complete enough you can definitely find something you would like. The service was great and the atmosphere was more on the quiet side. Solid dinner choice.

If you are in the area, you can't skip this place. If you're from Cleveland, the Marketplace at the…read moreCooke will remind you a lot of the 5th Street Arcades in downtown Cleveland. This is a super cool public market hall in downtown Sandusky with maybe 15ish (just a guess) local businesses like a bakery, bowling alley, axe throwing game space, ice cream shop and boutiques. This is a cool place to spend an hour or two just browsing and supporting local while grabbing some dessert. The building has some type of history to it which I was unable to readily find online (boo, that is so odd). But the history is paid homage in the design of this space, with old timey photos of Sandusky and Cedar Point blown up on the walls and little stories to accompany them. The design is actually brilliant. It's a cool mixture of old school heritage meets modern rustic vibes. It makes you want to stop and look. The businesses in this building are open during the pandemic, just make sure to check with each business directly before visiting as most of the hours are likely changed. I stopped by here extremely quickly (I do not go out much during the pandemic) to pick up some pre-paid birthday treats from Bake Erie. It has a spacious, accessible parking lot and is just a joy to browse. Check it out for yourself, than continue exploring the surrounding area of local businesses... and Lake Erie :)

The manhattan was really good though. I'd probably get the hot dogs fried next time instead of boiled because the buns got a little soggy. Just a recommendation but not at all a big deal.

The food was great, waiting for it... Not so good…read more To be fair, it was packed on a Friday night. We waited 45 minutes to get a salad, it was a Caesar salad salad and they were already out of Romain dressing at 7 PM on a Friday night. We had a Caesar salad salad with spring mix instead... No big deal. The portions were huge, but our dinner came in an hour and 15 minutes after we sat down. It was painfully slow, I will say our waitress was apologetic and helpful. And I know that it was busy, but it's really no excuse for it to look so dirty. It only takes a minute to sweep under a table after a party leaves. The bathroom was deplorable, there was water on the floor and muddy footprints everywhere. The napkins on the ground around the tables along with discarded french fries and shrimp tails were a bit gross. The food is five star, the rest... ehhhhh
