Myrtle Beach Area Restaurant Reviews
Each restaurant was reviewed during a time of day when it was not very busy, when possible, to ensure that the staff were able to provide the best possible service they could, and the restaurant should be as clean as possible.
We tried to review a large variety of restaurants, and meals, so there is something for everybody. We are very critical and don't make excuses for things that are not right. We expect perfection, that is what we and you pay for. If it is slop, we say so. We don't candy coat the review.
Businesses are judged based on a wide range of criteria including, primarily how well they prepared the items on the menu - not what was on the menu, menu variations, appropriate use of spices and ingredients, appropriate food temperature, presentation of food on dishes and value. Wait staff are judged based on their ability to conform to established industry standards, cleanliness and personality.
We look at the cleanliness of the dining area and the restrooms. Any complete failure in any one category can be enough to push the total score into the disaster zone area. We point out the good, the bad, and the ugly, saving you money and time. We add photos to give you a better idea what you might get at the establishment and to back up our reviews.
It is also important that the name or signage on the building, accurately reflects the menu. If the signage says Seafood Buffet, it must have seafood as 50% or more of the items on the buffet. Otherwise, it is just a buffet with a lot of seafood, not a seafood buffet.
