Review: I went to this restaurant there was barley any cars in the parking lot. We were seated promtly and our drinks arrive in a timley fashion. However, I went to the buffett and the food looked terrable and the selection was poor. The T-bone steak was sitting in water and was paper thin. I asked for crab legs and was told to pay $11.00 extra! The buffet was already $20.00 per person. I told my waitress and the manager this restaurant did not meet my expectations they were both rude to me so I left to eat elsewhere but still had to pay for the drinks! DO NOT EAT HERE!!

Review: I just ate there tonight and there wasn't hardly any cars in the parking lot which should have told us that the place wasn't any good. We had the bar and the food was AWFUL. The scallops were fried within an inch of their life. The entire BUFFET isn't worth the price of going there. If you are down here, please stay away from this place.

Review: Overpriced, my wife and I will likely never eat in a calabash buffet again. Echoing other comments, the food looked like it had been sitting there for hours and it was only 6:00PM. We sampled the prime rib, pork chop which was really a rib and two types of shrimp all nothing to write home about. Crab cake was awful, made with the "taste of crab" pollock you see in the grocery store. This is our first restaurant review ever, because we felt we must warn others of the how bad this place really is. We saw three other cars from Maine in the parking lot and if we had the opportunity we would have told them to save their money and run.

Review: This place is awful.The food was nasty and way over priced. Our bill was over $100.00 and did not enjoy the food at all.I think I had a pork chop,it was so hard you could not even bite into it. STAY AWAY from this place. We should have just gone to some fast food place,it would have been cheaper and taste better.

Review: We visited Preston's on a Sunday evening (7:00 p.m.) The fact that the restaurant was nearly empty should have told us something. The waitress seated us immediately and was very friendly. The food, however, from soup to salad to buffet entrees, to dessert was uniformly disappointing. The hot entrees appeared to have been sitting there for some time. The heating lamps apparently were ineffective as much of the food was lukewarm at best. My daughter termed the made to order steak as "acceptable". For the $20 per person that we paid for this meal, we could have done much better elsewhere.

Review: After 8 of us visiting tonight I have to say that any good reviews must be made up be folks working at the restaurant. It was Horrible! Ok, the salad bar was edible but that was about it as far as what we tried - and 8 of us tried a LOT. Prime rib looked like it was left overs re-heated - and tasted worse. Most of the food was mislabeled, the fish was dry and things that should be cold were hot and hot things were cold. I wold not believe ANY good reviews of this buffet and stay away!!!!

Review: We found this restaurant in the coupon books and tried it on vacation with our grandchildren. We loved it so much that we ended up going 3 times during our week there. I am not a seafood eater but there is so much more to eat besides seafood. The grandson loved the corn on cob.... We already have our reservations for the beginning of June and Prestons is already in our itinerary....

Review: My wife and I had heard many good reviews on Preston's, but you never know. For the first time in my life of 55 years, I was not home for the holidays, so we planned to try Preston's on Thanksgiving Day. We weren't disappointed! An on site carver served up slices of turkey and ham, while the food bar had dressing, gravy, green beans, mashed potatoes, as well as seafood and other offerings, such as chicken leg quarters, fried shrimp, deviled crab, fish, and a sweet potato crisp dessert that was out of this human world. Oh Henry...you would not believe! More food than that was available, along with baked goods and desserts...yep, the pumpkin and sweet potato pies were there! Such a nice, old time decor, clean and orderly. Though a bit pricey, they are no more expensive than other large buffet offerings in that area. We will go again, as soon as we return to Myrtle Beach!

Review: Been at Prestons many times before but here in oct had the worst buffet in myrtle beach. Oysters were dried up with mostly breading on a little oyster, deviled crabs were terrible with some kind of imitation crab meat,ribs were so greasy and fatty. They wanted $11.00 more for crab legs but we did not go for that bargain. The baked fish looked like it had been there for awhile, so for $40.00 we did not receive a very good meal.

Review: Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was fresh with cold items being chilled and warm items being very warm...The crab leg option may be exercised next time around but we were too full from the regular fare. It was very encouraging to see various employees eating from the buffet, as well....something you don't see very often...Thanks for a great meal Preston's - we'll be back

Review: We ate here three times during our recent vacation to Myrtle Beach. We love to eat here mainly because of the unlimited crab legs. They bring them fresh and hot to your table and keep them coming as fast as you can eat them. Also, there is a separate charge for the crab legs so if you do not like crab legs you do not have to pay for them. The buffet was excellent, even for those in our party that didn't like seafood. The salad is fresh and there is a wide variety of fruits and veggies to choose from. We have four kids and they love the food as well. Even their ice cream is delicious! There are always coupons to help save money. An overall pleasant dining experience.

Review: If you are trying to pick from the 100's of seafood buffets in the Myrtle Beach area like we were you will be pleased with Preston's. We read many reviews before deciding and were very happy with our decision to go to Preston's. There salad bar was fresh and there were many choices on the seafood bar and everything was also fresh. Each item tasted different rather than everything tasting the same as you get on some other buffets. There were many choices for the member of our party who cannot eat seafood. We arrived to eat at 4:30 pm to avoid the crowds and were seated immediately. I can't say how things might be later in the night. I hope your experience is as good as ours.

Review: It is $20 per person and most if not all of the stuff is so overcooked, salted and fried you cannot tell what you are eating. We love NC/SC fried seafood, but really felt like we had wasted our money after leaving Preston's. Not sure what a better option is, but encourage you not to waste your money here.

Review: We visited this restaurant on 7-20-08 and were seated almost immediately. First buffet where they don't automatically charge for crab legs. I don't eat seafood but that's the only reason my husband goes to the beach...for seafood so I must go for him. It's nice that I don't have to pay for the crab legs that I don't eat. Nice buffet. Great desserts. Wait staff is very attentive. All around good experience for us.

Review: We ate at Prestons because we wanted to try a seafood buffet. I love seafood, especially fried. We had the 10% coupon, making the adult buffet about $18. It is excellent because you have to pay extra for crab legs, but if you don't want that, you dont pay extra like some other buffets. The restaraunt is very clean, and big. All the food looked fresh and tasted good. I especially liked the fried shrimp and popcorn shrimp. The coconut cake and ice cream/hot fudge on the desert bar is excellent too. Yes, it's a glorified Golden Corral buffet, but the fried seafood, price, and choice are worth it. We went back twice because I was hesitant to try some other, more expensive buffets when I liked this one fine.

Review: What a mistake, $10.00 extra for crab legs, so $30.00 for all you can eat seafood and Crab Legs. The food was ok, but not worth $30.00. I will never eat there again, go to Bennets.

Review: Worst place I've eaten at in my entire life. I and my buddies were mad afterwards at just how bad the quality was. I would not go here again if they paid me too. The only way I can see any of the other reviewers giving more than a poor rating is if they enjoy eating dog food or work for the restaurant.

Review: We bring a group of ladies from our church every year to the beach. One of the highlights of the trip is our annual meal at Preston's. Several of us always have the crablegs added. They are brought out fresh as you eat them and not left sitting on the bar is water. Every time we make a trip to Myrtle Beach we make a point to eat at Preston's.

Review: I just wanted to say that I think Preston's is the best place to eat at in all of Myrtle beach! My family and i have been Acouple of times and we loved it. When you go in, it takes about five to ten minutes to be seated and that's on a very busy day. The food is great, it is always steaming hot when we go to eat and yes, we do eat off the perfectly priced buffet.

If you don't order off the buffet, then they will tell you that the crab legs are not added to the buffet. they cost about 15-20 dollars, but that's for all you can eat crab legs. the crab legs are pretty big, so you really are getting your moneys worth. the service their is great and I really don't see why anyone would not wont to eat at such a wounderful restaurant. So yes, I recommend preston's to anyone. We are planning to come back in july. Can't wait!

Review: I recently at there on my trip to check on my buddies condo at Barefoot landing! Poeple who complain about this restaurant should get a life! I have eaten here for years and the food is always hot and excellent! The crab legs are very good! What do you want for nothing! If people think the crab market price is up there. So what do you want for nothing! I took my wife there for the first time and she loved it ...plus she is picky!

Review: Hi everyone! I lived in Myrtle Beach for a year & half, plus my summers in college and ate at Prestons many times. I now live in PA. and I vist Preston's when I'm on the beach. Every time I had a great experience at Preston's! The food was hot and I always had great service when I went there for dinner. From being a waitor & a bartender in college I know what good service is and bad service. For the people out there who critize this restaurant they are complainers and don't have any idea of whats going on. And for the person who complained about the crab legs not being included.....get a life! Do you want something for free or what! For your information other places in Myrtle Beach and Murrells Inlet do the same thing. What are you complaining about? If you want a great place to eat and want great service go to Preston's Restaurant!

Review: We were seated as soon as we walked in. The food wasn't the best we had eaten, and the meal was the most expensive we have had all week long. The best thing on the bar were the peanut butter cookies. Otherwise most of the food was bland. The broiled/baked fresh fish was very fishy tasting, and if you didn't get to the fried food as soon as it came it, it toughened up pretty fast. The salad was old looking, and there wasn't even a CRAB salad on the bar. In fact several of the items listed in the menu as being there weren't They were considered seasonal. The cost was $17.95 but if you wanted crab legs, it was another $10.00 on top of that. Add $2.00 per person for their drinks and it adds up fast. Overall, it was the worst experience we have had at a restaurant while here at myrtle beach. Our server was all but absent, letting our drinks run dry, and very inattentive on the whole.

Review: We got their and immedietly seated that was the hightlight of the meal. The food quality was bad. The salad was old and wilted. Highly overpriced for the quality. Nothing more than a golden corral with some old seafood. I would not eat there again if it was free. Don't waiste your time or money.

Review: We chose Preston's buffet because the restaurant advertises a menu to order from in addition to a buffet. My sister is vegan and does not eat from buffets. She ordered a baked potato. It came out hot, fresh, and HUGE. The rest of us enjoyed the buffet. If the items had just been put out, they were pretty good. Clam chowder tasted more like potato soup. Desserts were marginal. Waitress was very friendly, and joked around with the 9 of us. We liked that it had country items on the menu, since my Dad doesn't like seafood. It was a well balanced buffet with decent food. There are coupons in the magazines to take 10% off. All of the area buffets are overpriced, so this one is priced accordingly with the others. We appreciated that crab legs were not included, so that the price was lower, since only 3 of the 8 ordering the buffet would have eaten them anyway, and chose not to add them. Would we eat here again? Maybe.

Review: Excellent buffet! For anyone complaining about the price, I'm guessing that you don't go to many MB buffets, because Preston's is by FAR cheaper than any of the others, with the same or better selection. Tons of different choices, lots of large tables. The sweet potato casserole alone is worth it!

Crab legs are extra, but they are extra at every single buffet I've been to in MB in the past 5 years.

THis is an excellent buffet restaurant, and will be sure to have lots to please the whole family!

Review: The food was great, but expensive. One thing you need to know up front - THE CRAB LEGS COST EXTRA! We were okay with the $17.95 for the adult buffet, but they charge an extra $9.95 for the crab legs, which is what we wanted in the first place. For two adults, a 10-year-old, and a 7-year-old, our bill with tip was $95, and that's with the 10% coupon from the monster book. The fried shrimp on the buffet was delicious and the salad bar was wonderful, but I couldn't get past the fact that the crab legs made this a VERY expensive meal. Had we known that the crab legs were extra, we would have chosen a different seafood buffet where the crab legs are part of the regular buffet. Long story short: if you don't want crab legs this is a wonderful buffet - good food, good service - but if you want a seafood buffet that includes crab legs, go somewhere else. The crab legs were great, but overall the meal was not a great value for the money. We had 5 dinners on our vacation and I would rank this one 4th overall.

Review: Lots of large tables for large parties (we had 8 adults and 7 kids in our party). The kids buffet was kind of overpriced, but $18 per adult was not bad for what they had to offer. Seafood was good, and tasted fresh, but the other meats they had to offer were somewhat dry. Servers were very friendly and attentive, and they kept the buffet well stocked. Overall, a pretty good experience..

Review: Last year my whole family went to the beach for a week and we ate at at Preston's. It was the best place we had ate at the entire week. Everything was just like it should have been and I personaly think it was the best restaraunt I have ever eaten at. So, if you need a place to dine at, you should come to Preston's. I promise you will not regret it. my family and I are coming back this year and I can't wait!

Review: I was very disappointed upon seeing the buffet. The salad bar that they had bragged about in their ads was far from impressive. The seafood that should be fresh is the same products I sale my customers in VA and WV. I am in food sales so I know good quality food. They Do have a lot to offer, but you can go to Ryans for less and get a better meal. The service was good and everyhting was clean, but i wouldn't eat there again, nor would I recommend it to anyone!!

Review: With the outrigger now closed, we chose this one by default. Very bad mistake. My wife wanted crabs legs which is why we stayed. They were warm from the kitchen but with very little meat and just fair. I wanted lobster and it was not on the menu. I should have stopped with my water. The buffet was terrible and I was afraid of getting sick later. The bill for two without drinks was over $50.00. Do not go here. K&w cafeteria was much better overall. My wife said she gets better crabs legs at our local chinese buffet. Enough said , you have been warned. We were never asked how our meal was or if we needed something else..

Review: VERY expensive. I believe for my husband and I, it was about $50. I guess maybe I expect a buffet to be a little more reasonably priced. The food wasn't hot, and being so close to the ocean, the seafood sure didn't seem to be fresh. Won't go back this year

Review: Wow..The food here was wonderful. I have tried several buffets around town and this one is the best. The price is very reasonable, The best part is I don't like crablegs and Prestons does not charge me for them. Most places on the beach have crablegs included in their price. So Thank You for not making me pay for someone elses crablegs.If you do like them my wife says these are some of the best around.The service was wonderful. We ask for the same server every year and she is wonderful. You also have wonderful options on a cooked to order menu. I have had the steak to order and it was perfect.The decor is very nostalgic and is appealing to young and old.Make sure you put this restaurant on your list to try.

Review: This is a must try restaurant Adults are $17.95 our 5 year old daughter was $3.95 you can save 10% with a coupon from the Monster book, and various other ones. Very large assortment of food T-Bones on the bar three different carved meats. Seafood, veggies a nice salad bar. For an additional $9.00 you can add crab legs which I did the second night we ate there they were hot and fresh, and better than the ones at The Origional Benjamins. The dessert bar could offer a few more items, but they have plenty to choose from. We will go back

Review: My Family and I (a group of nine) ate dinner at Preston's on July 30 while visiting North Myrtle Beach. We decided to try it out since we read so many good reviews about the restaurant on the internet. We went into the restaurant around 8:45pm and waited for about 8-10 minutes to be seated. So far so good? Not quite. Our experience at Preston's was horrible. Once we were seated, the waitress informed us that the crab legs would were not included on the buffet. With the buffet being very expensive by itself, we all decided that the overpriced crab legs would not be ordered.

Why didn't Preston's inform us from the beginning before we were even seated that crab legs were not part of the buffet. We even had called several times, and still no one mentioned that the crab legs were additional to the buffet. Even on their website, Preston's does not state that the crab legs are additional. And to top it all off, the food tasted horrible considering the fact the the buffet was overpriced. Because of the horrible quality of the food, we decided not to tip the waitress. For one, we had to beg for a refill on drinks and the poor quality of the food made us not want to tip.

I reccommend that you try other options before you let Preston's be your final decision.

Review: Very disappointed in the selection and quality of the seafood. Our waitress was attentive, but never asked if everything was fine. She probably knew the answer. Quite honestly, we can get a better selection and better quality seafood at a Chinese buffet in Canton, Ohio. Obviously we won't be back.

Review: This is the best place to eat at North Myrtle Beach. They have a selection second to none. seafood, steaks, country cooking and more. it's the least expensive place to eat seafood at Myrtle, and the price is the same it's been for years.

The food bar has everything from steaks, chicken, oysters, shrimp, fish, all kinds of hot vegetables, salad bar, and good ice cream.

We eat there at least once every time we go to the beach. This is a good family restaurant and for $16.95 you can't find a better place to take your family. We have run a restaurant and I don't know how they can afford to feed people for that price. This isn't your place if you think you are better than everyone else, but if you want good seafood, and down home taste go to Preston's - it's the best in our book.

Review: The food was great. The fried scallops were the best. We chose this restaurant because it also included country style food. You had to pay extra if you wanted crab legs but they were good. The dessert bar could use a few more items. We will make sure to visit here again but I dont think I would pay extra for the crab legs. There is enough seafood on the buffet to satisfy anybody.

Review: The crablegs are the best around, they are served to your table, straight from the kitchen, hot and crisp, easy to unshell, not like the ones found on buffets which are soggy and over boiled.

If there are any other places out there that serve them this way, I'd sure like to know where they're at !

We also liked the fried oysters,shrimp and rolls,

So, if you're looking for GREAT crablegs, this is our pick ! !

We do suggest that you go early or right at dinnertime. The legs seemed bigger then if you get them later in the evening. Still the best tho ! !

Review: Beware in the off-season. We went to this restaurant during March Break (14th). Over half of the items on the buffet were luke warm to cold.. and the wine (merlot) was undrinkable. We were asked numerous times how things were. After complaining about the quality of the food (numerous times) we were told that this was the slow time of the year and that was the reason for the inferior offerings. Which, I guess, is understandable, however the price remains the same as in the peak period. The waitress continued to ask if everything was okay, finally we gave up and said it was fine.

Review: This restaurant was horrible. The seafood buffet looked terrible. The items on the buffet looked like yesterday's leftovers. For the price, the food was awful. It was so bad, my husband and I left after only eating a salad. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Review: The buffet was clean, well stocked and everything looked and tasted fresh. Prime Rib was cut to order and very tender. A wide variety of seafood, including oysters, mahi and a fabulous crab stuffed seafood. We really enjoyed it and recommend it highly.
