Review: My girlfriends and I go to Myrtle every September for a getaway. We tried Fire Island in 2006 and went back in 2007, and plan to go again this year! Our first experience was excellent except for our waitress. She kept passing by our table, and never brought our bread; she failed to keep glasses full, and we finally had to call upon another person to help us. We still wanted to go back, so we gave the restaurant another try, and were very pleased with the place, this time our waitress was excellent. The food has always been great, so we'll be back again next year! PS The skewers and sauces are out of this world!!

Review: We were not greated by the 2 hosts at the front when we walked in. They told us it would be a 30 min wait for non smoking so we sat at the bar tables (there was 2 couples in the whole section) I walked to the restroom and the dining room was empty! (why a 30 min wait) To make a very long story short after we had been there over 45 min we told our waitress we did not want the appetizer just bring the food 10 min later someone brings the appetizer (sampler) The chicken strips tasted like they were out of a frozen meal It was not very good. Then after another 20 min or so we got our food. I ordered the veggie burger and sweet potato fries 3 people at the table ordered skewers and the other ordered pasta. Everyones food was cold not warm but cold. We asked for the manager and explained to him how bad the service was and how we had been there over an hour before we got our food. Nobody ate the food. On the way out the manager said to us "I found the culprite behind the cold food, my heating lamp went out!" We will never go there again.

Review: The skewers with the differnet dipping sauces are a must to try! My husband and I were able to split the 7 skewer meal which included steak, chicken, pork and swordfish and a large portion of rice. We have visited MB for the past five years and this was our first experience at this restaurant...it really is wonderful food. The service was a bit slow, but it was quite busy when we were there. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!

Review: Awesome place. I was skeptical at 1st hearing the name and figured all items would be spicy. My finace and I got steak and the people taking us out got scewkers, It was the best steak I had in a long time. The drink specials were awesome to. The younger one in our party got a drink with 151 rum in the straw, which was an intersting choice. It looked good, but it was to strong for me. Going back in Aug 2007. Cant wait.

Review: My friends and I take our yearly hommage to MB SC, and Fire Island has been one of our new regular stops while there. They have the Hottest Staff, the best food and the coolest atmosphere. We like the bar & bartenders so much we go there nightly. Im never one to praise so this is new for me but their staff and managment are far ahead of the curve for the industry these guys know whats up!

Review: We stepped into this restaurant and glad we did! This atmosphere is simply amazing and the food was wonderful! We were told to go by friends who visit all the time and now we know why. The few people with the negatives must be "Those kind of people" because this restaurant tops all that I have been to in Myrtle Beach and my friends and I will definately be back our next trip to North Myrtle Beach!

Review: Whenever I need to take a relaxing vaca.-I just head up to Fire Island Tropical Bar and Grille. It's a soothing enviroment that takes me away....The food is simply delicious, you must savor every bite! And for the low prices, you couldn't beat it. Not to mention the service, my friends and family had the time of their lives with our waitress. She had us laughing all night! We were seated right away, but if I had to wait, I would; it's worth it! They have an awesome bar and great cocktails! I love this place and I think everyone deserves a vacation every once in awhile at Fire Island!

Review: We enjoyed our first trip to this restaurant and will go again. We were told that they do not take reservations but arrival at 7pm had us seated by 720.

Our tabled order the crab dip, tuna, filet steaks, and the skewers. Everyone loved their meal. The skewers and 7 sauce option was a lot of fun.

Review: I was at Barefoot Landing on May 15th with 2 friends on vacation. We decided to try the resturant out by the look of it and were in for a disasterous time. We came in and went to the bar and were greeted by a bartender on duty and ordered our drinks. Well 2 out of the 3 drinks made it to us in about 10 minutes, the other drink took over 25 minutes to be made and the only reason we even got it was because we had to ask the other bartender(must have been a trainee) to make it. When the Raspberry Long Island Iced Tea finally made it to our table, our original bartender completely ditched us and we were left all alone without having our food orders taken and with the 25 minute drink that was basically sours mix and raspberry flavoring. We asked for our check because we were so upset we wanted to leave and our first bartender, after he was done flirting with the waitresses, said he was to busy and couldn't get to us and was taking care of the drinks. I will place the setting.... 3 guys at a table, the rest of the bar area empty and the chef/cook kept walking out to the bar to chit chat. The resturant was not busy because I only saw several people enter the resturant the whole 45 minutes we were there. I will never enter your resturant again and will make sure I tell all my friends and family to stay away as well. You have very poor service and a super loud atmosphere. I almost felt like I was in a kindercare building with alcohol being served.

Review: Wow! What a mixed bag of reviews. In any case, I guess we were lucky. We went on a Sunday night, and the place was full, but not crowded. We were seated immediately.

We had two appetizers ... both were excellent. Everyone had different entrees and everyone was pleased. I had the pork and beef skewers with the delicious sauces ... yummy! And, they had a very nice wine selection too.

The atmosphere is very unusual and very inviting. If we weren't so tired from our day of travel, it would have been fun to lounge in the bar area, which looked particularly cozy.

We visit the area every year during the last week in April, and we will make sure to revisit Fire Island Bar & Grill.

p.s. The reason we found this place is that we tried to get into Greg Norman's and the staff (everyone from the hostess down to the bartenders) were absolutely rude. We've been to Norman's in the past and had a nice experience, but apparently their service has gone down under (tee hee).

Review: Great atmosphere. Our wait was < 30 min at 8:30 PM. It was our waitress's 1st day and she was wonderful. Best service we have had in a long time! Food was excellent. I had the beef, swordfish, chicken, and shrimp skewers. All of the meat was perfectly cooked (it was definately not dried out.) My wife had the Cedar Plank Salmon. She says that it was the best salmon she has ever eaten. We will definately return.

Review: Me and my wife ate at this restaurant the night before we got married in may of 2006. It was so good we took all of our family there the night after we got married. The filet was fantastic, and the service was great. Me and her have been dying to get back. We would have never known that it was the first week that they had opened. I would definately eat there again and definately recommend it to anyone going to myrtle beach.

Review: Excellent atmosphere! The food was awesome; however, our waitress was one of the worst we've ever had. Our trip was during a slow season, so the restaurant was not overcrowded, however our waitress kept leaving us and brought our drinks after the food was served, salads along with the meal. We had to have someone chase her down to get any service at all after that. Other than her, the experience was truly enjoyable. The ambience made us feel as we were were in the tropics! We will be going again on our next trip to Myrtle Beach!

Review: Don't know what happened when some of the other viewers visited, but I was very pleased with this restaurant. First of all, I liked the theme of it as we have nothing like it here on Long Island. Second of all, the service was excellent, had several people come over and ask if if everything was okay. Third, my experience with the shrimp and beef skewers was fine. Cooked well and I really enjoyed the various dipping sauces. Rice was also delicious and the price of $12.95 was very reasonable.

Review: This place had great food that you can't find on the typical chain menu that you see all too often in Myrtle Beach. It had a fun, exotic enviornment. Hey, even our waitress was exotic. The service was excellent and friendly! I was there in July when it had only been open a short time. Hope it stays this good. We will definately come back again.

Review: We had not eaten here previously so we a bit reluctant to take some out of town friends to Fire Island. We had been to the bar for cocktails on several occasions and enjoyed the staff and the atmosphere very much so we thought we would try it for dinner.

We were very pleased that we dined there. The ladies had the lobster and the guys naturally all had steak. Everyone was very pleased, so much so that we lingered longer than usual and the went to the barn for a final nightcap. We all enjoyed the evening, I will return.

Review: I have nothing but compliments for this restaurant! The food was amazing...and I'm a very picky eater! Their menu had such a wide variety of different foods that everyone in our group was thrilled with the selection they had to work with when picking out dinner. Our waitress was very bubbly and happy to see us. Not to mention her laugh was unique and very contagious! As you can see, our large party had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back! Go enjoy the atomsphere and the fantastic food on the island!

Review: My first trip to the Fire Island Bar & Grill will be my LAST! After the meal, it was clearly apparent why there were so few people in the restaurant. The high expectations of our group for a great meal at this tropical themed restaurant quickly dissipated. The salads were excellent. From this point on, everything went downhill. The service was slow, the beef and shrimp on the skewers were overcooked (the beef was actually crispy), and the rice was hard and crunchy. We reported the quality of the meal to the server who made no offer to correct the situation. I fully expect this restaurant to be out of business in the near future.

Review: I saw the restaurant as I drove through Barefoot Landing and being a local, decided to bring our Red Hat group for dinner. We had no wait time, due to the fact that no one was in the dining room and I had called ahead for reservations. The service was extremely slow and although the salad, dressing, and sweet potato casserole were good, the skewers were overcooked and dry. Our group of 9 will never go again.

Review: The delightful atmosphere is the only positive comment I have for this place. The featured "skewer meals" came to us with overcooked beef and shrimp and either very overcooked or undercooked crunchy rice. The service was personable, but inefficient and slow. It would have been nice to experience an excellent meal to go along with the appealing tropical theme.

I recommend this great place to all that are looking for somewhere different than the rest. Also, Jody Miller is a magnificent chef and will easily excel with his passion. He is one of the few that makes this place the place to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review: We chose this restaurant because of the ambiance and the ability to get a seat quick. Unfornutately, we realized quickly why no one else was in the restaurant. They were out of cheesesticks and calamari (sp). This was the 1st week of June in Myrtle Beach.....there were 4 other couples in the restaurant...no kidding.

We were served a child plate with 1 french fry on it...our salad had NO dressing on it....and no shrimp in the soup. It was TERRIBLE.

As we were complaining and laughing about it...my husband went to the restroom and the were out of toilet paper...NO KIDDING.

Each virgin strawberry daiquiri was $6.50.....we were shocked. We would never go there again!! Or maybe we would to see if they got any better....I doubt. We had terrible service and a manager never came around to check on us. It was probably the BEST time we had making fun of things!

Review: Food was excellent. Atmosphere was the best part. When we entered, they said half an hour wait, so we order drinks at the bar. less than 10 minutes later we were seated, in a dining room that is almost empty. Why was there a half an hour wait theorectically? Entrees do not come with salads, and it costs $4.50 extra. You can sub both sides for a salad, but that isn't worth it. Anyways, it is a great restaurant, and I will go again.

Review: We are just back from a trip to North Myrtle Beach. We tried Fire Island and were very impressed. The tropical atmosphere was relaxing. The food was excellent. The grilled skewers (and their accompanying sauces) were great. Fire Island was our favorite restaurant from the trip. We look forward to returning here on future trips.
