    I live in the Columbus area, but I have to say best restaurant by far in Sandusky. Nice location, downtown vibrant scene with great staff. I’ll definitely be back.

    Our server was fantastic and the food was really, really good. We are from Massachusetts and found this gem while looking on Open Table. If we are back in Ohio, we will definitely be going back.

    Great dinner as always. Love the sushi and the Ragu bolognese and they never disappoint. Only criticism is the overhead fans; we were seated right under one and they can’t turn them off individually. But that aside, the restaurant is amazing!

    We have been to Crush several times and it is one of our local favorites. The service is alway great. They have a solid regular menu, but I recommend giving their specials a try. They never disappoint.

    We went because a friend who lives in Sandusky posted that he would be DJing as usual on Friday and we decided to make the trip from Toledo. It happened to be Sandusky’s Restaurant Week and the offerings were varied and delicious! The wine list is voluminous and we found a bottle to take home, the craft cocktails were delicious. My wife had the halibut and I had the duck. So good. Our server Krista was a delight. Highly recommend for every aspect. Food, service, ambience, cleanliness. Everything just clicked. Just lived it
