    Crab fries
    Corella D.

    This was my first time trying this place. Let's say based on what I ordered, 3 stars is extremely generous. I'm only taking into consideration the issues they've had with staffing lately. I ordered a Buffalo chicken salad. It was supposed to be lettuce, celery, carrots, fried chicken, Buffalo sauce, and blue cheese. What I received was lettuce and grilled chicken. I had to use my daughter's Buffalo sauce and ask for the blue cheese. We asked for a Philly cheesesteak sandwich and they didn't have the ingredients. We asked for sweet potato fries and didn't have those either. The only redeeming item were the crab fries with cheese sauce. Those have great flavor and the cheese sauce isn't your run of the mill nacho cheese.

    Not surprised ESPN has no idea what they're talking about
    Alex R.

    Should have known this would be a joke when ESPN rated it #1 for something. Their ticketing system for the kitchen has to be a joke, since all of our food came out separately, mine taking an extra 10 minutes, and coming out cold. For being in a theme park, you would think it would be more organized than a regular restaurant. It took 10 minutes for a water, so god forbid I ask for a hot (temperature) Buffalo chicken cheese steak sandwich. The chicken for it was also as bland as bland can be, and the sauce and cheese did not make up for it whatsoever. Also, they don't have a kids menu, but they have some overcomplicated system for a kids portion size. Fries do not come with your food either. They are an additional $9 to your already unsatisfying $11 sandwich. On a positive note, though, these are the best thing they serve, any way you get them (seasoned, sweet potato, and also unseasoned which isn't on the menu, surprise). The fries alone make this place deserving of 1 star. They only have one bathroom for males and one for females, so have fun waiting when this place is busy. This place is overpriced, and over portioned. If they cut the portion size down by 1/4 and took $2-3 per menu item (especially since fries are a separate charge) it would be a lot more worth the time I wasted there. Well, ESPN, you don't know what you're talking about, once again.

    First time here and it felt good just to sit down and warm up. We ordered onion rings, buffalo boneless wings. And nachos. Onion rings were good. Buffalo boneless wings were cold we took them back & the cheese on the nachos were cold too. Took that back as well! It was somewhat better then continuing to eat from the food trucks all day. Food was OKAY.

    The service was friendly and good. That's what the 2 stars are for. The food tastes cheap and microwaved, yet kind of pricey.

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 banana pudding tasted okay, but it was more of a soup than a pudding. Even the whipped cream was liquified. But it gets a lot worse. The ribs were disgusting. Undercooked, tough, chewy, and tasteless. I've never had ribs that particular texture. Almost like they came from Costco and were thrown on the grill for a little while. Chili's ribs were better and Chili's ribs are a joke. The beef brisket was passable, but even it was just mediocre. The only reason I gave it a second star was the service, which was fast and friendly, and the ambiance, which was pleasant. In short, I'm not sure why Dave is famous. Maybe change the name to Infamous Dave's? Or just go back to being a Quaker Steak n Lube. That was good food!

I accidentally left my credit card there, and not only did they go out of their way to mail it back to me, they included a cute little Thirsty Pony drink coozie in the envelope. That was such an unexpected and thoughtful touch. Customer service like that really matters. The atmosphere and the way they handled my mistake absolutely left a positive impression.

We didn't get any menus when first sat down so our server was scrambling a bit since the host kind of left us hanging. Our server was really great at keeping our cups full and putting in our order quickly. The food came out pretty fast which was really surprising but tasted pretty subpar. You really should come here for the vibes which were fun and lively! There's also a bowling alley, axe throwing, laser tag, at least 3 different sports bars/betting, arcade, AND a food truck outside with yard games. I ordered the cluck cluck burger which has bacon and an egg. The burger patty was pretty dry but it was saved by the egg. It comes on a pretzel bun which I loved! My nephew ordered a ton of apps instead of an entree and got the giant pretzel (cheese came out pretty dry with a hard top), onion rings, and the cheesesteak fries. He liked the fries the best, onion rings were good, but the pretzel was cold. My husband got chicken wings naked with three or so sauces on the side which weren't very good so I'd suggest getting them normally breaded. He also ordered a burger with sweet potatoes fries that were pretty good but his patty was also dry.

Pretty much this has really become my favorite place to grab some much needed sustenance when inside Cedar Point as the Foldovers are all really good and definitely unique as I haven't seen any other parks doing sandwiches like this! The crispy chicken one is delicious it's full of lettuce tomato crispy chicken and some ranch dressing to make it just that much better with that yummy Foldover bread which kinda resembles a pita bread and you know it just fits! The Italian one is also really good too as it's filled with Italian meats and some veggies with a vinaigrette to ad some more zest to something that's already yummy! The meatless sausage one thought is also definitely where it's at as it's also one of the best vegetarian options in the park this Foldover sandwich packs some flavorful goodness inside just get it and you'll see what I mean! They accept Dinning Pass here so definitely take advantage of that or don't forget to use your season pass for a discount off your purchase! The Foldovers come with fries or a side salad so just let them know and you'll be all good with your sandwich! They also have chicken tenders here but it's all about the folded goodness so just get one you'll be thankful you did! Overall delicious goodness inside the park you soo know I'll be coming here again soon for some Foldover yumminess!
