The restaurant features a gorgeous waterfront dining experience with scenic ocean vistas for guests to enjoy while savoring their Calabash-style food."
"Full disclaimer:If you want delicious seafood fried Calabash style (lightly breaded and fried), drive 30 miles north to the actual city of Calabash and eat at Beck’s Restaurant. Many of the Calabash seafood establishments in Myrtle Beach are buffets. There’s a plethora of these shrines of gluttony dotting the beach, most of them boasting 170 items or more, from teriyaki salmon to chocolate fountains."
"What it's known for: Benjamin's serves up its sustainable seafood Calabash-style, so it's lightly breaded and fried to golden, crispy goodness. Bring the whole crew and head to the buffet, because they really mean "all you can eat.". Style: Seafood, buffet, casual, family-friendly, lunch, dinner"
"Their desire is to give you an experience that truly amaze you. And perhaps give you a chance to experience a different fare than you might normally find at North Myrtle Beach. Their servers and bartenders are excellent, their Chef is top-notch, and their Managers are the best."
"If I had been able to drag my teens away from the ocean, we would definitely have visited Snooky’s on the Water for lunch. We didn’t discover it in enough time to try it on this trip, but Snooky’s also gets consistent high reviews from local, visitors and my friends alike. Snooky’s by far had the widest variety of fresh seafood offerings – including a raw bar – while situated in one of the most beautiful settings."
"Enjoy a cold drink and some good food while watching the boats cruise up and down the intercoastal waterway, serving, seafood, wings, salads, sandwiches and a variety of desserts. Snooky’s on the Water is one of 2 locations for Snooky’s. In 2019, they opened their second location which is located in Cherry Grove."
"Little River is the home of the annual Blue Crab Festival, and Crab Catchers is the unofficial headquarters for the waterfront festivities. Crab Catcher’s offers delicious seafood prepared fresh and made to order every time. The restaurant specializes in seafood and sandwiches but they also offer steak entrees."
"Crab Catchers on the Waterfront is known for its amazing shellfish. The restaurant has a laid-back attitude and awesome service, so it’s the perfect place to grab a beer and enjoy some snow crab legs or steamed mussels. Check out the to-go menu if you’re in a hurry."
"Located right next to the largest fine cigar showroom in the southeast, Nick’s Cigar and Wine Bar offers a cozy, relaxing getaway to enjoy a fine cigar and tasty adult beverage. A smoker’s paradise, this wine bar is popular among golfers, as it also offers a state-of-the-art golf simulator that is free for all patrons. Nightlife • Cigar Bars"
"A fun Myrtle Beach fixture, Wet Willie’s is known for its 20 daiquiri machines doling out colorful “grown-up slushies.” As well as bar bites and a festive atmosphere, strong drinks with clever names like “Attitude Improvement” AND “CALL A CAB” pair well with tasty grub. Choose from cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, nachos, and fries … all of which you can enjoy on the open-air patio. A post shared by Wet Willie’s (@wetwillies_) on May 31, 2015 at 6:23pm PDT"
