What to Eat in Myrtle Beach

Chain restaurants – including Hard Rock Café, Senor Frog's and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville – are all over Myrtle Beach. If you are looking for a diverse and innovative foodie scene, this is not where you want to go. But one thing the city doesn't lack is variety. A large selection of restaurants is located along Kings Highway (U.S. Highway 17), so much so that it's often referred to as "Restaurant Row." A decent number of locally owned eateries can also be found, with the predominant cuisine theme being seafood. Mr. Fish, Captain George's Seafood Restaurant and Sea Captain's House are all well-reviewed spots.

You'll also be able to find some more upscale spots; local and tourist favorites include Sole Italian Restaurant, Fire & Smoke and Aspen Grille.
