DeMore’s Offshore Bar & Grill is such a cozy and welcoming spot—I absolutely loved it! The food was incredible, and I ate every single thing on my plate. The staff were super friendly and made the experience even better. Honestly, the fish and mac and cheese here are next-level. The fish was so crispy and fresh, and the mac and cheese was creamy, cheesy, and absolutely perfect. This place really has a warm, laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home. It’s easily a 10/10 for me, and I can’t wait to go back again. If you’re ever in Sandusky, you’ve got to stop by and try it for yourself—you won’t be disappointed!
Loved this little place. Casual, friendly, decent bathrooms. Ambiance is very laid back, TVs and nice bar. Walleye sandwich is TOPS. Beer batter not my style. Jalapeño poppers could be a lot better, don’t like the breading or how raw the jalepenos were. Fries are great!
A welcoming and delightful experience! First time visiting, and the kind server offered menu suggestions that were delicious. In-house made jalapeño poppers to start, then a stuffed burger which was good, but the fat-cut fries were amazing. Nice people and a relaxed atmosphere. Will go back!
Great casual spot for an amazing seafood variations. Freshly grilled local fish is perfectly tasty Service is very quick and welcoming.
Started out by being told service might be slow cause they were short handed and it was the opposite. Waitress was great and quick and very nice. Fried walleye sandwich jumped out at me and blew my mind. Very delicious and the seasoned fries complemented it very well along with there coleslaw not to bad and I’m a hard critic of coleslaw wasn’t the greatest but it was definitely good enough to eat if u like creamy coleslaw. Friends got seafood Alfredo and she liked it very much. Other was the seafood platter with the fried clams,shrimp,perch, and walleye with a side of grilled crab legs seasoned to perfection. I got to try little of all of it and I absolutely loved the crab legs and highly recommend. Was little disappointed when I wanted to order oysters Rockefeller and they was out of them and cold Yuengling beers I assume cause they was so good but that was only thing I was bummed about but got a Great Lakes dorthmunder which is good to try. Would highly recommend to anyone in area and likes to support local restaurants
Food was Amazing. Was a little cold, but weather was nasty out. Omg the potatoes were great too.
Came here for a casual lunch with my husband, and WOW. So often you go to little local bars and they just throw some premade frozen items in the fryer. Not DeMore's! I could tell everything was homemade with love. I got a caesar salad, added fried chicken, and then had some of their homemade mac & cheese on the side. I kid you not, this was the best caesar salad I have had in years. Fresh, hand-breaded chicken!! So good. Perfectly crispy breading while the chicken was juicy and delicious. The mac and cheese was perfect as well! A hidden gem for sure. If you haven't made it here yet, you've got to give them a try!
Went for lunch today for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. The service was spot on and flawless and the food was amazing. The seafood nachos are definitely worth getting! The clam chowder was full of clams and not watered down. Then I had walleye which was fried perfectly and in fresh oil. Not a fan at all of tartar sauce but theirs was so good I couldn’t stop eating it. Definitely will come back to eat here again!
