I have eaten at this restaurnt one other time it was excellent then and is still very good! We went early around 4pm I would recommend going between 3 and 4 , they are not busy yet and all the food is fresh, you definitely get your money's worth here. The crab legs and peel and eat shrimp were the best, the salad was very fresh, stuffed mushrooms and maui was good also the rest of the seafood was very good. A few things on bar were luke warm, that or I had to much on my pl ate and it was warm when I got to it stick to the seafood! My son says the pork chops were good , desserts were great but kind of pricey but if you are going to do a seafood buffet while you are at myrtle beach this is the one to try! Well worth the money. ref: 15470

Come On! Its an all you can eat restaurant. And its GOOD!Our first experience at Capt. George's Seafood Restaurant was in 2006, for a family reunion dinner, and we have returned yearly since when on vacation. The quality,selection,and portions of food were and remain good. Cleanliness, service and atmosphere were also good. The price was fair for the market value. At the time we were residents of Pennsylvania and have since moved to SC. As compared to "All You Can Eat seafood venues in Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Baltimore, Md., We find Capt. Georges on par if not better than most. For an "All You Can Eat Buffet, and remember folks thats what it is, to us it is better than Red Lobster (which we detest), and basically for eating out, as good as Phillips, Mccormick and Schmicks and the Chart House Restaurants, where you are basically paying for name brand. If its "upscale you want, try "Fodor's or Zagats's" for example to get a restaurant review. And by the way, everytning that glitters isnt gold there either...wink ...wink. But, for a basic family style seafood menu moderetly inexpensive all you can eat outting, Capt. Georges is just fine.
Everytime we go to Myrtle Beach, Capt. Georges is a definate stop to eat. Given the cost ($110.00 + ) for my husband, two daughters, and I), it's almost given the same attention as visiting an attraction. Better than Capt. Benjamins Calabash, and not too dissimilar than Dixie Stampede or Medieval Times. Given that fact that its seafood which is always more expensive, and the elimination of a show, for $30-$40 more. Were there any changes to be made to the menu, I would suggest maybe the desserts could be paid a little more attention to. But then again for the venue I'm not expecting "Tiara Misu, Marzipan or Cannoli" either. Capt. Georges is a definate go to in my opinion. Just keep things in perspective. Over all we give it a four and a half star. Kudos to management and staff !

My wife and I went to this restaurant on Sunday for a early dinner special. The seating was very quick. Our waiter Vladimier was very nice and his service was great. The quailty of this buffet in my opinion was excellent, As buffet's go some times the food can be overcooked and dry, this was not the case here. We will go to this restaurant again. ref: 14830

Trusting what your getting on vacation is important to experience a good vacation. I went CGSR in Viriginia Beach and enjoyed it. The one in Myrtle Beach showed that this chain is consistent in quality and service. I went on my arrival and the seafood is excellant (especailly if you like crab legs,mussels,and clams). My family wanted to go for seafood again later in our vacation, and we decided to back again. Their are enough different items on their buffet to create a different dining experience,but if you like crab legs you can't miss (especilly if you go for early bird and get $3.00 person). If you read any bad experiences on this site it was probably during busy times which any good buffet of the quality of CGSR experiences. Show up early and you'll love it. ref: 14783

Me, my husband, and two daughters ate here June of 08. The food was not quite what I expected. We spent around $100.00 and we left hungry. I know some people read these reviews and think what a negative person, but I really want to warn these people who work hard for their hard earned money to have a nice vacation to be slightly ruined by a dining experience that's waaaayyy overpriced for what they promise to deliver. I definitely WILL NOT eat here again. I would have rather eaten pizza again at California Pizza. It's great, delivery or dine in. We done both while we were there. ref: 14709

My husband and I love Captain George's and being from VA we have tried them all here. This was our first visit to the Myrtle Beach location and it was as fabulous as the others. Our waiter, James P. was great and friendly. We really enjoyed meeting the kitchen manager, Juan, who was nice enough to check on our dinner and answer our questions about the restaurant chain. Captain George's you've created another wonderful dining experience. We'll see you again when we visit Myrtle Beach. ref: 14646

I love steammed clams (big and small)... they had plenty of perfectly cooked, hot clams ready. Plus there was tons of crab legs (alittle over cooked). The dessert bar was good (could use fewer cakes - maybe a pie or two). The salad was good/above average. The rest was good - some things were better than others. Overall, very comparable to other buffets price-wise... worth while... something for everyone. (Early bird - $22, reg dinner - $27). We will return. ref: 14644

I've been to Myrtle Beach three times in the past two years and going again next week. Captain George is on my list for Sunday dinner every time. My husband had been there many years before and enjoyed it so took me when we went. It is absolutely the best out of any restaurant I've been too... buffet or otherwise. We budget for our Captain George meal as we usually do not spend this much to eat out. It is worth EVERY penny! The food is always delicious, plentiful and attractive. We are early people so we've never had to wait for a table...but by the time we leave the place is filling up. It is fabulously clean, staff is friendly, and the seafood is the best I've ever had anywhere. I've never been disappointed by this place... Next to picking up shells at daybreak...I look forward to eating at Captain George on this next mini vacation to Myrtle Beach!! ref: 13978

This first experience at Captain George's was a mixed review. There were very few items on the buffet that I would call outstanding. Much of the food tasted as if it had been on the bar too long, yet we dinned early. The desert bar was very good though. However the service was excellent and the waiter was very polite. Overall it was not worth the high price paid which seems to be the trend with Myrtle Beach buffets. ref: 13759

This was the worst dining experience I have ever had in Myrtle Beach! They do not use real SEA-FOOD on the buffet. Except for the tiny dirty shrimp. All the fried foods are obviously deep fried in the same grease. The prime rib was certainly not prime meat! It tasted like overseasoned processed roast beef. I don't know where they got the shrimp, it was so dirty looking even through the battered coating. The ribs were clearly put into the chaffing dish in water to steam and toped with barbeque sauce. The Norfold seafood dish had all imitation seafood except for the dirty shrimp.The salad bar had brown lettuce, and yellow looking blue cheese dressing. The crab imperial was stuffing with fake crab meat in it. As for the deserts, the banana pudding had not one slice of banana and was so stiff and aweful tasting. I would not recommend this over-priced- imitation seafood buffet restaurant to anyone! ref: 13744

This is the ONLY seafood buffet I will eat at. Main reason is because it is so CLEAN! Other buffets are loaded with dust hanging off of ALL the displays, carpeting is dirty, and the bathrooms leave much to be desired. Captain Georges offers a nice variety of seafood and American foods. Their tables are readily filled and fresh! Service is great also. We live in North Myrtle Beach so we have a choice of many buffets, and this buffet is the clearly the CLEANEST and as buffets go this one is just fine! ref: 13721

Captain George's is on par with all other seafood buffets in the area. They're all over priced slop fests. Throwing some boiled shrimp and crab legs on a buffet line full of other low end food items such as instant mashed potatoes and fried chicken from a week ago doesn't make it a "seafood" buffet. It's $26/person for $10 worth of food. No thanks. ref: 13620

Capt. Georges, A definite winner in all categories. I was at the one in Williamsburg Va. and we totally enjoyed ourselves. In that one there are people dresses up in period style clothing and speaking the kings English. It is one of my favorite places to eat as far as vacationing and eating at all-u-can-eat places. We are going to Myrtle beach in Dec. and plan to eat at Capt. Georges. If not once but maybe twice before we leave for home. Keep up the good work and keep the crab legs flowing. Oh and dont worry about the noise level its a restaurant not a morgue. ref: 13399

My husband and I always visit Myrtle Beach at Thanksgiving. We had often thought of eating here because it was always so crowded, which is typically a good sign of food/service. We could not have been any more disappointed. The buffet was minimal and what food was left was horrible. We ended up spending over $75 and left hungry. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone. I will actually make it a point to pass the word how bad it was. ref: 13354

I have eaten seafood all over the USA and up and down the east coast from Maine to key West, many times over. As far as Seafood Buffets are concerned this is in the top 3 best seafood buffets i have ever eaten at any where. I have been to this one twice and 3 times to the one in Williamsburg Va. I am picky and never had any problems. The sea scallops were always excellent and big, crab legs great, shrimp fine. soups the best. salad stuff nice and cold, deserts very good. The place is Beautiful inside and the Buffet is Beautiful!! I'll give you unhappy people an important tip. In any resturant they may use the food that was left over from the day before. so don't get to a buffet when it first opens and don't get to a buffet in the hour before it closes for they may not refill the pans. I always go between 4pm to maybe 7pm that way i know there making it fresh and keeping it stocked! ref: 12802

My wife and I have came here several times. We visited last night but went early because of Tropical Storm Hanna. The food was not good. Not many crab legs. Maybe it was the due to the bad weather. This was not a good visit. My wife actually said that there is no way that she could ever eat $28 dollars worth. We will give it one more try though. ref: 12702

We absolutely loved this place! We did go early (4:45) based on some of the reviews and got seated right away. We had also read about "coupons" being available but hadn't been able to find any. When we got there, I asked my waiter about the coupon and he was able to find one for us and give us the discount. I thought that was great. The Crab legs were wonderful! Although it was pricey, when you consider how much crab legs cost you even at the grocery store, we definitely ate our money's worth just in those. Everything was just great and my 5 year old even loved the variety! ref: 12577

This was my wife and I's first time here. Wasn't sure to go or not based upon the reviews of some. Quality of the food was very good as we had crab legs & shrimp mostly. Service was very good considering the restaurant was crowded at the time. It took us about 15-20 minutes to be seated but as I said we got there in the evening and it was already crowded. Atmosphere in the restaurant was nice and was nicely decorated however the noise level at times was bothersome. I think the value for the money is only average as it is kind of pricey. It was my wife and I and three kids and the meal was about $107 not including the tip. ref: 12546

My husband & I ate at 3 Captain Georges so far and this one was the worse one! We mainly go for the crab legs which were cold and over cooked! We love crab legs so if that does't come out right then you pretty much wasted our money! Their selection was not as good as the others Captain George's! There is so many seafood buffets in Myrtle Beach we really wanted this Captain Georges to be good but it very much a disappointment us! The best one by far was in Pungo, Virgina Beach, for food service & view!!!!! I wish they would reopen the 2nd best was the one on Laskin Rd Va. Beach. ref: 12516

Having relocated from NYC to the Grand Strand I find it very difficult to really enjoy eating out here in Myrtle Beach as there are very few restaurants that actually make me want to go back to them on a regular basis. One of only two buffets that I do recommend is this one. Lots of variety and of course all the crab legs you can eat! Not to be missed! ref: 12450

This trip marks our Eighth time eating at Captain Georges. The only way to describe this restaurant is to say, everything you eat will be the best you have ever had it. If you try the She Crab Soup, it will be the best She Crab Soup you have ever eaten. If you try the crab casserole it will be the best crab casserole you’ve ever had. What ever you try, it will be the best you’ve ever had it.
Service at Capt. Georges is the best also. The staff was taking a menu and wine knowledge test when we were there. They are serious about service.
I recommended Capt. Georges to someone on the beach. The next day he couldn’t thank me enough.

I am not really a seafood lover, but the experience of going to Captain George's was amazing! The food was excellent, and while there was a little wait to be seated, they kept us moving. Our waiter was attentive and personable. What really drove it home was when I got some fried shrimp from the buffet that were on the poor side (kind of rubbery and soggy). I told the waiter about it, and he informed the kitchen staff. He returned about ten minutes later with a heaping platter of fresh fried shrimp that were AMAZING, and the chef himself was in tow to ask if they were better. Everybody makes mistakes, but this is a place that will bend over backwards to make it right if they do make one. ref: 12021

We have been to this restaurant every time we come to Mrytle Beach. It is one of the things we look forward to. The food is always excellent and so is the service. My husband gets crab legs also and the only complaint there is that it is hard to keep enough on the bar since they go so fast. The atmosphere is great.It reminds me of the sea and is very pleasant. It is a bit noisy,but I don't know of any place that isn't really. We have been pleased every time we have went. We do go early--around 4:00 usually. That seems to be a good time for us. The service has always been good for us,and we are coming back to the beach the end of this month and coming there is a definite--maybe twice during our weeks stay. ref: 11826

My family and one other family vacation in mb every summer,We look forward to cg's and it always comes through.I enjoy the fried oysters and crab legs the most but liked mostly everything on the bar.My wife really enjoyed the salmon with crab topping.Only took about 15 minutes to be seated even though it wasa huge line.Our table had 11 people at it ,we had one waiter who did an ok job but was very hard to understand cause he didn't speak english as well as we had wished.He also didn't seem to believe us when we gave the ages of our 2 young daughters because he kept coming back (3 times) and disturbing us by asking how old they were.We didn't like be treated like we were trying to cheat cg's out of a couple of bucks.We can look over that for the enjoyable munching out we got to do.We love the place ,can ignore crappy servers(drink slingers is all they are).Not waiters.Sure will be back. ref: 11713

We first found the original Capt. Georges over a decade ago while visiting Virginia Beach. We were elated when they built the 4th restuarant in Myrtle Beach which we visit each year. I wondered if they could duplicate the same quality as the original. They did not disappoint. Still the dining we look forward to on our trip to Myrtle Beach! Beats the Benjamins and Calabashs hands down in our opinion. ref: 11710

We have been trying different restaurants while vacationing in MB. We had read reviews on Captain George's and were excited about the dinner. The food was mediorce at best. Most all the food was over cooked. Much better food can be found at Murrell's Inlet. The price for 2 buffets and 2 drinks was $65.66 + tip. A disappointment for the money. ref: 11328

Ive never wrote one of these before but I feel like I have to! The first time I went to Captain Georges in 2007, everything was great so I took my family there just last week only to be severely dissappointed. It was the worst dining experience we have ever had. There were parasites on the crab legs - extremely visible. It caused my mom to become sick. Most of the food on the bar was cold including the tilapia and salmon. The manager came to our table but did not apologize and actually brought one of the parasites and sat it right in front of me. He told me that it was naturally occurring and not to be distubed- but they were parasites- just dead ones. The manager should have offered us a discount but he was incredibly uncaring, inefficient and unapologetic for our bad experience.
The next night we went to Friendly's - no place special, but we had to wait over 45 minutes for our food and without hesitation the manager came over and not only gave us a discount but gave my parents free dessert! Now that is a good manager - we will return to Friendlys again and again, but never Georges! We are warning everyone to take their service elsewhere when they want a crab leg buffet! ref: 11296

We spent the week here, early into our vacation we tried Benjamins, which was "ok", then at the end of our stay we stopped by to eat at Captain Georges. For the money spent on the buffets Captain Georges is the first place we should have visited.
The crab legs were very good, better selection of seafood dishes, blackened mahi-mahi, crab imperial, fresh steamed clams, stuffed mushrooms,as well as land dishes, like the blackened pork tenderlion, and the prime rib.
The kids loved the atmosphere here. I will make another visit to Captain Georges again. ref: 11035

My family is going back to Myrtle Beach in June and I wanted to make sure I remembered the fantastic seafood buffet we went to. Our 1st visit in 2006 we went to Giant Crab, Captn Benjamans and Captain Georges(someone told us about this one and we had coupons for all 3). We were then going to go back to the one we liked the best(This was a scientifically conducted culinary experiment). Giant Crab and Benjaman's were good, but the unanimous winner was Captain Georges(and my wife and daughter LOVE crab). Everything was stocked well and we like to go early(3pm, and I recommend going as early as possible to 1) use coupons, saves money 2) not waste time in lines, saves time 3) You can then do other things in the evening to work off the big meal, saves your waistline) to avoid the crowds. Besides the abundant seafood, there was a landlubber's bounty also. I looked at the desserts, but didn't try any of them, I figured, get the seafood while I can, I live in Kansas City. Overall, if you are going to go to only 1 seafood buffet, this is the one to go to. We're going to hit it twice (at least) while we're there. ref: 10651

The night we went the food was poor and looked awful. We waited on the server to ask us how our food was and they never asked. There was very little seafood and just was not appealing. To top it off the Desert bar was empty and stayed that way.
I contacted the website aout the food and was called by a manager, he left a message. I tried for a week to get back in touch with him, then when I did I was given the runaround and said he would check with other people that worked that night and then contact me. He never contacte me, which I expected. Also it is my opinion that counts not the employees.
Really poor - not recommended. ref: 10565

We ate at Captain George's in 2006 and it was horrible. The food tasted as if it had been made hours prior. The food tasted like it was frozen Gorton's seafood you would buy in a grocery store and then cook and put on a buffett. I would not eat there again if it was free. ref: 9835

Our family had the buffet and we were all very displeased with the quality of the food offered. It was far from being worth what we had to pay. Everything was cold.The cakes on the dessert bar were dry. I had a piece of the Blackened Pork that I could not even cut with my knife. We had dined at their store in Virginia Beach several years ago and were pleased so that is why we stopped here. I don't think we will ever return to one of their staores again after this experience. ref: 9817

The place was Great. The waiter was terrible. He did not refill our tea and water but one time. That is after we looked for Him. Then he was rude and put a tip of 28.00 on our bill. I am a firm believer in tipping but not when we served ourselves the whole night. It was my parents 50th wedding anniverary and He ruined the whole night. My Grand daughter drank her water and started walking around the table looking for something to drink. Of course we did not have anything in our glasses. The service can really make a beautiful place bad. The atmosphere was wonderful. The food was Great. Oh my the desserts were Yummy. I feel He Knew his tip was a sure thing so he did not care about our service. ref: 9434

OMG. I have never been to a seafood buffet as great as this one. It was my first time to myrtle beach. I am going again this saturday and we are deffinitly going back it is our number one choice. It was very calm when we went and there wasn't alot of noise. There wasn't that big of a line to get to the food and even if there was it was so worth the wait. The waitiors were extremely kind to us and got us everything that we needed even more. If you go it will be the best dining experience that you will ever have in the seafood area. Even if you do not like buffets you will certainly like this one. Hope everyone that goes there will have a splendid time like i did. I so cannot wait until i go there again in a few days. ref: 8129

THE BEST BUFFET IN MYRTLE BEACH!! We came here on our last day on a recommendation by friends, and so I was hesitant going in (and I am a super-critical person by nature). However, this is the absolute BEST buffet at Myrtle Beach (and I've eaten at all kinds of Myrtle Beach restaurants for 30+ years). Now that I've been here, I will not go to any other Myrtle Beach buffet restaurant - I'll go here twice during my vacation week. My description won't even come close to conveying just how GREAT this place is, but I'll try: It has all the seafood you could possibly want (crab legs, broiled/fried/baked shrimp, scallops, crabmeat, oysters, mussels, etc., crawfish, soups, seafood casseroles) plus a lot of other meats (chicken, prime rib, etc.) and pasta. Everything - even the HUGE stock of crab legs - was cooked to perfection. I completely skipped the large assortment of veggies and salads and breads (which looked fabulous) so I could eat nothing but seafood. The dessert "room" had at least 12 different items to offer. We did not know the price going in, so we guessed, based on the quality, selection, and atmosphere, that it had a fair value of $40 per person - BUT it is ONLY $25 per person!! Plus, there are $2-3 coupons in ALL the Myrtle Beach guides, coupon books, etc. $25 (we paid $23 per person) is the same price as all the other "big" buffet restaurants, and those others offer food, atmosphere, quality, quantity, etc. that is not nearly as good. Our waiter had several tables - including a party of 20 - but he kept up with us every few minutes - he did a great job. The design of the very, very long buffet area is that of an intricate sailboat, and it is beautiful. We cannot think of anything bad to say about our experience there. Even the restrooms were nicely furnished and spotless! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CAPTAIN GEORGE'S!! ref: 7876

We went to Captain George's based on a recommendation of friends who had eaten there before. We arrived early, and were seated immediately. The atmosphere is by far the best of any restaurant we visited. Each of the buffets looked like giant treasure ships. All of the food was of the highest quality, and was hot, fresh, and quickly replaced. The desserts were of the highest quality I've ever seen on a buffet. This buffet is EXPENSIVE, but it is worth it. The only complaint I have is that crab legs are already included. I am allergic to crab, and my father doesn't eat seafood, so we felt that we didn't truly get our money's worth. There is a large variety of seafood not offered on other buffets (such as crayfish). There are coupons in some of the magazines to save $2. If you are considering a buffet, this is the one to choose. It was a 20 minute drive Barefoot Resort where we stayed, but was absolutely worth it. A word to the wise...if you want to go here and eat without a wait, go EARLY. By the time we left the restaurant, there was already a line all the way out the door and around the side of the building. And this was July, which is considered the off season in Myrtle Beach. Try to dine before 6 pm, by 5 for the shortest wait time. ref: 7672

My husband and I ate at Captain George's with my family on an October 2006 trip to Myrtle Beach. I am not a seafood buffet fan myself because usually everything tastes the same and is fried. Captain George's was a definite exception to the rule. Most of the foods were not fried and each had a deliciously distinct and fresh taste. The Mahi Mahi was outstanding. Their crab legs were some of the best I've ever tasted. The floors were not slippery at all, another fault of ten with seafood buffets. The atmosphere was casual but elegant. We are planning a trip this year as well and my husband says he would drive down to MB just to eat at Captain George's. We cannot wait! ref: 6465

I like to start by saying I am a huge seafood fan, my wife on the other side is new to it. We were seated very quickly and found the atmosphere very comfortable. The food was very good except that the salad bar was quite old and not very edible. Other than that the other food was full fresh and very inviting. My wife enjoyed trying all the varieties just as much as i did. If the salad bar had been better it would have been a five star. Would definitely still go back for the seafood. ref: 6440

We went to this restarurant with a party of 16. We were seated right away and the service was pretty good. The crab legs however were not as good as the service. We usually go to Benjamins Calabash on our first night here but thought we would try someplace new. What a mistake. The crab leggs were terrible and one person in our party ended up getting sick later that night from something that he ate (we think it was the fried clams). The price was way too high for the quality of food ($72 for two adults). I guess we'll be going back to trusty Benjamins Calabash for now on. ref: 6381

In reading the other reviews, either we went on a very bad night or I'm a complete snob. My husband and I were seated immediately, right next to a party of 10. The entire section was otherwise empty. I started to worry at that point, and it went down hill form there. Crab legs were like rubber, fried clams were like pieces of plastic, broccoli tasted funny, potatoes were overcooked and cold, pork was so overcooked I gave up when I tried to stick a fork in it. Three of the staff almost ran into, too busy with what they were doing to notice the customers. I even heard a woman at another table complain.
To give credit where it was due, our waiter was very nice, the building was nice, and the olny thingI enjoyed were the rolls. They were the only item I food I found to be very good. For $25 a plate, you would alos expect to have a carving bar. Instead, you get prime ribs scraps in a tray. We all have opinions, but if 5 or 6 are bad, it would be a good idea to choose another place. ref: 6191

I do not eat seafood, my husband does. I promised him an all-you-can-eat seafood buffet during our vacation to Myrtle Beach and I dreaded it. However, Captain George's was definitely a great choice. It does not smell like seafood, the atmosphere is pleasant and the buffets are made to look like sailboats! The buffet is $26 and my husband loved everything on his plates. After the waitress warned me that Captain George's is "not known for its steaks", I opted for the Vegetable Platter ($12.95) and was very satisfied. I would definitely go again. ref: 5842

First time eating in this restaurant. The food was excellent all food on buffet was hot and fresh. Buffet was very clean and well kept as they had someone cleaning all the time. Service was very poor considering what we paid for this meal and the day and time we were there. We were there on a Saturday evening around 6:30 . Our server was a young man named Matt he did not seem to be concerned with our needs. We had to ask for drink and coffee refills everytime and when we did get coffee we had to catch him again to ask for creamer each time. This was not what we expected for the price we paid for this buffet. But the food was worth the money. I would recomended it because in my opinion from what I saw some of the other servers seemed to be very concerned with the customers needs. ref: 5215

My family found the restaurant to be a big dissapointment. A place like Captains George's, you would think would have some seafood. There was some tiny fried breaded scallops, some dried up broiled flounder, mushy baked salmon, tasteless shrimp, and old baked oysters. There were crab legs which we found to be the only thing we could say that we were o.k. with, but overall they were average. The food was luke warm at the buffet, some cold. The dessert bar we found to be o.k., the only thing worth the try was the cheese cake, cherry cobbler, and the orange fruit slices. For the price, it was ridiculous. If you are a vegetarian, you would like this restaurant. Plenty of vegetable items. Alot of none seafood items, I guess to fill the space of having hardly any seafood. We will never visit this restaurant again. We ended up at Taco Bell, only two hours later. ref: 3959

The desserts were very good. The room we ate in was very noisy. It was the huge room to the right when you walked in. We will not be going back next year. ref: 3512

I've been here twice before and I've posted on this site. Both times it was excellent, I guess the third time is a charm. We walked in after 8 PM on a Thursday evening. That was our first mistake. It was clear when we approached the buffet that they were done bringing out fresh food. Though we were one of the last groups to enter fo the evening, there was still a good crowd in the area. Most of the food was dry and had been sitting, the only fresh thing I saw come out was were stuffed mushrooms which I can get anywhere. Even the acclaimed dessert bar was picked over. I sensed it wouldn't be good because of the timing, now I know. Still, they shouldn't charge $25 after 8PM if that's the case. It was worth 5 dollars if. I should of said something but that's not me, I have class and instead will verbalize it. I will not return as there are so many other places. If u want real seafood go to a place that's small, homey and off the beaten path. Anything that says oyster/raw bar is good and there are plenty. Don't be afraid of the title, most of these places have a full menu and bar. I felt so bad I payed for everyone. The one good thing, it's by far the cleanest buffet on the strand and the services was so so, but even it's been better! ref: 2425

Ive read over the comments because I wanted to hear what people are saying about this restaurant. Some people complained the crab legs are to salty but Capt Georges doesnt salt them, they come from salt water and the deeper they come from make them salty. The people who complained about Capt Georges changing the credit card tip amounts are absolutely stupid. Your credit card company holds 20 percent extra of the bill, because most people tip around that amount, after 2 or 3 business days it will go away, so instead of choosing a new restaurant or callling them frauds, you should look into getting a new credit card company. And the timeshare people. Yes they can be annoying but they buy hundreds of thousands of dollars in gift certificates so you will continue to see them. Just tell them you're not interested and will not be persuaded. However they do offer money to come out to see their sites and you do really get the money, so whatever amount they offer you will get, the more you hold out the more money they will offer, i think up to like 90 or 100 bucks per couple. Hopefully everyone will have a great visit next time you visit one of the Capt Georges but if not just give them another chance. ref: 2008

I visited Williamsburg, Va., a few years back and were recommended to Capt. George's. We were very impressed, great food and great value. I travelled to Myrtle Beach several years ago and stumbled upon a Capt. George's. What a great surprise! I talked my golf party of TWENTY into going there (I was the newst member of the group) and they absolutely LOVED it! We have made it a staple of our annual trips and I am looking forward to dining there again in only three weeks! You must go every time you travel to Myrtle Beach!!! ref: 1976

I should get a bonus check from Captain Georges. Everyone I know that is going to visit Myrtle Beach I tell them not to miss this restuarant. After they get back they all agree. The best food at the beach. Service with a smile and best bargain. I never miss a chance to eat the best crablegs around. i could go on and on. But, you get the idea.

We visited the restaurant today for lunch with two friends. The restaurant opened at noon and we were there for 12.30. It was populated sparsely. The range of dishes was excellent but the food had been cooked many hours previously and, perhaps, even re-heated from the previous day. It was not cold but too cool to enjoy.
The price of some $25 per person we found extortionate and we would not have stayed had we not had a coupon for $50. Even so, it cost another $60.
Perhaps we went on a bad day but that never should be the case. We will not go back.

We love the food, and it was excellent! We have a problem with their credibility. We called them ahead of time, from Ohio, and specifically asked if they were going to be open for Christmas day. We were told yes, absolutely. They also informed another person who lives in Myrtle beach, (and they asked on the 20th of Dec) that they were going to be open. Two lies, to two different people. We called because that is where we looked forward to going the most, and were So very disappointed to find they were closed for Christmas Eve AND christmas day! Very poor public relationship. ref: 1803

Captain George's Seafood Restaurant is an excellent place to eat and enjoy seafood. The food setup is awesome. The only complaint I have is that Captain George's doesn't serve oysters, and I love oysters! Captain George's Seafood Restaurant is by far the best seafood place in Myrtle Beach. My family and I eat there at least twice a month. Tomorrow night approximately twelve of us will dine in for another great dinner. Do you have any available coupons that we can get? Thank you, for a great comfortable atmosphere! Sincerely, The Gore Family ref: 1651

Update: On a return visit to Captain George's on our last evening in Myrtle Beach this year, we found the food was still quite good, and the other ratings remained the same, except for the noise level, which was somewhat lower. They seated us in the upper level area, a bit farther from the buffet, but only by a few steps. The crab legs were still a bit salty, which may have been the reason they appeared a bit more dry than some other restaurants offer. Grabbing the legs in the middle of the stack (not in the water on the bottom of the pan, and not on top) helped to moderately alleviate this problem. The other seafood was very good, and the other items were quite unremarkable (I never try the pasta at these places - I prefer real Italian food in a real Italian restaurant. or home-cooked). The desserts were also very good. As for the timeshare hucksters, there were two of them as we left after dinner. One started to offer $75.; we continued walking out and completely ignored them. Had he persisted, I would have deployed the method of response that I espoused here a few evenings ago ;). This was not necessary as my lovely and gracious wife and I jumped into the Jeep and headed out. ref: 1482

OK... here's the deal. The food there is excellent, as it has been during every visit we have made there. We were just there last evening and will go back before we leave for home. The service is excellent, and the waiting time was very short (get there at 4 PM and bring the coupon!). About the timeshare sales, people need to just ignore them, similar to when you receive a telemarketing phone call - just hang up (unless you really need somebody to talk with). The timeshare woman approached us last evening, asking how long we were staying in MB; I told her we were leaving tomorrow and promptly walked away. Had she persisted, I would have grabbed my inner thigh with my right hand and told her, "I got yer timeshare right here..... share this!" Hey, maybe if everybody did this to those peeps, we could start the Captain George's Anti-Timeshare Movement. OK, everybody.... right hand on right inner thigh (left hand on left side for those of you southpaws)... let's git 'er done...... ref: 1472

My husband and I had visited Captain George's in Williamsburg, VA. and looked forward when we could eat there again. This past week-end we were in Myrtle Beach and ate at Captain George's. Our bill was $58.01 which I put on my debit card. My husband left a $10 tip on the table, when I checked my bank statement, they had added an additional $11.00 charge to my debit card. Needless to see I am not a happy camper ! I'm not sure this is even legal, but I plan to find out ! ref: 1469

We go to Myrtle Beach several times a year and eat at both buffetts and full service restaurants. My wife had been trying to get me to try Captain George's so we did in Sept. 2005 (I had dragged my feed due to the high cost). The food was good, no crowd. I paid with a credit card, but found out when the bill arrived today that either the server or the restaurant raised our tip amount by $2.00. We normally tip 10-12% for buffets, where all the server does is bring water and the bill, 15-20% for full service (our bill was $47, I tipped $5.00). I was highly insulted that someone woud do that in a restaurant that big. We will never go back. There are too many other honest restaurants in Myrtle to choose from. ref: 1464

I ate at this restaurant three years ago and it was excellent. However, my visit this time was horrible. I felt like I was robbed since my husband and I paid over $60 for food that was not even warm. Everything on my husband's plate was cold. We felt that the manager should have given us a discount or something - instead he gave the excuse that the temperature in the restaurant was just cold. The previous night we ate at a restaurant that was freezing and my food was piping hot. We paid less than $40 for dinners at other restaurants the other two nights we were in Myrtle Beach and those meals were excellent. We have decided to never eat at this restaurant again - even if someone else paid for the meal. ref: 1375

My husband I just returned from Myrtle Beach today. We travel there once a year. We have visited Captain George's there many times over the last few years. Last time there, my daughter got sick and we assumed that she ate too much "rich" food. This year we saved this restaurant for last and we are sooo disappointed. We ate there last evening, 9/23/2005. The crab legs were awful and the scallops were very over done. The shrimp were mushy and had NO flavor at all. A table beside us complained and they were brought out fresh crab legs and they were just as bad and really had a BAD odor. I have eaten at many of the buffets in Myrtle Beach and highly recommend that you skip this one!!! I know that was my last visit. ref: 1348

We decided to eat at Captain George's after all of the great reviews with high expectations. The restaurant was very nice and clean and the employees were friendly. Now here comes the shock: the food was awful. The crab legs were very dry; the meat once cracked would not slide out of the shell, and what we did eat just didn't taste good. We even waited for them to put out another batch but they were all the same. There was a large selection of food, but it was not good. Everything tasted bland. Thought we would hit the dessert bar but it was equally bad although the cheesecake was good. With a party of five everybody agreed this would be our first and LAST visit. ref: 1257
