Myrtle Beach Restaurant News

It's no different in the Myrtle Beach area, and there are already several local restaurants with free wifi. We hope this list grows quickly, because until everyone is connected via their cellphones, we see it becoming more and more important for restaurants to provide wifi access to retain and attract customers now and in the years to come. ... more restaurant news.

Great customer service factors in choosing favorite restaurant

What makes some of your favorite restaurants so pleasant to go to, where you don't mind spending your hard-earned money dining and relaxing?

For most people, the food may be superb, the atmosphere top notch, the noise level and music are pleasant, and prices are within their budgets.

It's usually the right combination of all these things that makes certain places worth the time, effort, and money.

A favorite restaurant's music may be a little too loud; or it may not have seating on the oceanfront deck available for you when you dine; or maybe the wait to get a table is a bit longer than you like to wait, and so on.

Obviously, not everything has to be perfect, and enough positives, such as great prices and comfortable atmosphere, allow some minor "flaws" -- such as no ocean or waterway view, for example -- to be more easily overlooked than others.

The one thing that allows most people to overlook minor faults in other categories, yet still list a restaurant as their favorite, is how well they're treated by everyone that works at a restaurant: whether they're owners, managers, hostesses or servers.

It's the combined customer service of the owners and employees of a restaurant -- or any business, for that matter -- that makes all the difference.

Reviews can help you choose

With so many choices of restaurants in Myrtle Beach and the greater Grand Strand area, restaurant reviews may be helpful to narrow your choices, and we encourage you to read several reviews before deciding where to dine.

There are currently 9569 reviews on this site, and that number grows daily as locals and visitors write reviews and rate the places they frequent in order to share their dining experiences, both pleasant and not so pleasant, with you. These reviews, it is our hope, will help you and your family make better choices when dining on the Grand Strand.

Help finding great places to dine

In order to make it as easy as possible to find great places to dine on the Grand Strand, we've separated restaurants by type of cuisine served, like seafood buffets, steak houses, Italian, Japanese, Irish, international, etc.

You can also locate where to eat by area, such as Murrells Inlet, North Myrtle Beach, Broadway at the Beach, Surfside Beach, Little River, and other coastal areas of the Grand Strand.

Please note that we've separated out the areas of Restaurant Row, Barefoot Landing, Broadway at the Beach, Cherry Grove, and Colonial Mall either because of the number of great dining choices at a location, or to make it easier to find a place to eat while at a shopping complex or while enjoying a few hours at an entertainment complex.

We've provided a very easy-to-use rating system of 1 to 5 stars (one being poor quality and 5 being excellent quality) for things like atmosphere, food quality, time to be seated, noise level, and more.
