    Thirteen Whole 14 Layer Caramel Cake
    Matt L.

    This is a great date night spot especially sitting outback on the patio. The food is all delicious and the wait staff was super friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very cool with lots of natural greenery. I got the bowl of soil which was so flavorful with lots of great parts so I highly recommend. The place was so nice to give us some dessert on the house which was absolutely amazing. The food and overall experience was great. 10/10!

    Came in solo as I was in the area and really wanted some fresh and good oysters!! It's summer season in Myrtle so the place was packed! I walked in a little after 9 and was greeted graciously and seated hurriedly at the counter because the kitchen closes at 9:00pm. I ordered the fried oysters which were prepared exceptionally and a wedge salad. Delicious! Server brought me a sample of the shrimp bisque which was insanely good! I ordered the petite lamb option...3 chops and the artichoke sun-dried tomato risotto!! The lamb wasn't as tender as I preferred but the risotto was honestly the best I've ever had! Brava!!!! Oh yeah and the dirty martini was on point. The ambience is southern chic! This is the place! A great dining experience. A must if you're in Myrtle beach area!

    The biggest tip I can give you, is make reservations. The hardest thing to do, is to make reservations. We did have reservations but we had called two months ahead of time. We both love Frank's Outback when there is good weather. They do have two bars. We were lucky enough to get a seat at one of them where we ordered cocktails. I must say, it was the best chocolate martini that I have ever had. We decided to split the fried oysters although the fried deviled eggs were whispering our names. Dinner consisted of the pork chops for him and the small filet for me. My dish came with mashed potatoes and fried onion rings. Both of our meals were outstanding. Would I come back here? We both agreed the next time it would be the fried deviled eggs. If you see me there, stop by and say hello.

    One of the best restaurants. The food was to die for. WOW. The short rib and the caramel cake were unreal. I have thought about that cake every day since I had it back in October. I truly can't get over it. My favorite app was definitely the low country spring roll. Amazing. I had the pan seared grouper and I liked it pretty good, but there was better food at the table! I hope I get to come back here very soon. Service was also great.

    Excellent Ambiance, Service and Food. Outdoor seating with plants, greenery, fireplaces and numerous bars.

    Franks is a local favorite for a reason they have fantastic food, drinks, and atmosphere! The only down sides are you need to book ahead of time and their parking lot needs to be bigger lol. Still completely worth it their prices are reasonable for the great food and their patio atmosphere cannot be beat!

    Had a great table outback, right in the center of it all. Heaters made it great for February. Great ambience, great food, great server. Was able to get the reservation only about a week in advance as well for a four top.

    Let's just say if I could give 10 STARS I would! Frank's outback is the BEST at Pawleys. The servers are all PROS! And make sure your drinks are filled and food is steamy! And the environment is bursting with charm, tiny white lights, ferns, light music and fountains. Our group had 5 entrees that were all over the top with fried oysters as the appetizer and Carmel layered cake with icecream as our dessert! See the photos. Coming back again and again!

    What an amazing place, the atmosphere, food and service, all great! This building goes on and on with so much seating! The food was spectacular!

    Great food and even better service! There's a reason this place has been her for 30+ years. Food was excellent and I highly recommend the beef tenderloin

    What is the preferred attire?

    Complete range and not even distinguished between inside & outside, our group was i shorts and polos, others there for special occasions were in dresses, coats, etc. But 100-plus heat index affects attire more than anything

    We visited here from out of town. My 2 nephews and their band ,Urban Jukebox (Look them up- Awesome…read moreband for hire!!!) were playing. I love how this place is set up. It has a small inside area with seating and a bar. It has a 2nd floor with pool table. It's attached to a huge outside deck/patio built around huge trees for covering, a stage area, huge firepit you can self add logs too, and heaters surrounding plenty of seating for large or small groups. We ordered the bang bang shrimp, regular fried shrimp and the oysters. They cook to order, there is no pre cooked food laying around waiting to be selected for an order. The food was top tier! The shrimp were fat and perfectly seasoned and cooked. The oysters were clusters and they tasted like they had just come out of the ocean. Perfectly salted and steamed. The live band was a bonus! If you're in the area, I highly recommend this place and the band. If I lived closer, I would definitely be a regular.

    I hate to give bad reviews, but this place is a no-go. Save your time and money…read more After being told the burger is huge, I was very disappointed to see it was a single 4oz patty that didn't even come close to covering the soggy bun (for 15$ at that). Not to mention they brought my food out 10 minutes before any one else at the table. The burger itself was extremely mid, 0 flavor, and even the onion rings were bad. When trying to leave, it took multiple attempts to get them to bring out my check, and even longer to get them to run my card. It's clear these owners have never worked at a restaurant before and are clueless with what they are doing. Icing on the cake: their menu spelled Caesar salad, "Ceasar salad". Incompetence is rampant here.

The atmosphere is super fun, lots of cool island and nautical decor. Although we sat inside, they have a fun outdoor space and playground for kids. We were seated and greeted right away, and our server was incredibly friendly! They have a pretty extensive menu. One nice thing about the menu is that they have options that are not just seafood. We all got waters & I ordered a glass of Cabernet. I'm a sucker for Oysters Rockefeller so always try these at a new spot! These were really delicious, however, there was quite a bit of topping on the oyster and it could've been a little lighter, but still so yummy and would order again! We all ordered either the grilled chicken or grilled shrimp tacos for our entrées and they were outstanding! They are served with beans and rice but you can substitute for any other side. We ordered the chicken tenders and fries for our daughter and she enjoyed them. She's also obsessed with pickles, and the server brought us a few extra which was very sweet. I would recommend this spot. Fun atmosphere, great service, kid friendly, and yummy food!

    What a Great place to eat around Pawleys island…read more Service and food were top notch. They were pretty busy, but they got us in right away and we were a party of 5 with two kids. The place is lively, and has ac inside to keep you cool in the summer heat. They give you a nice basked of bread when you arrived and large drinks.

We started with a carafe of blood orange mimosas. The flavor was great! I would've liked a little bit more chilled but nothing a little ice couldn't take care of. I went with the grilled Romaine salad. What an awesome choice. The Romain was grilled to perfection and topped with a lot of crumbled blue cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, pistachios, bacon, and blueberries. The fried oysters we're served to the side of the salad and they were not too heavily battered and made a delicious compliment to this amazing salad. The warm Maple bacon vinaigrette was absolutely delicious. I will not be just passing by this pace anymore - it actually might become one of my regular stops!

    First time visit. This is the third restaurant trying to make a comeback here…read more Only two things impressed us =quality of the food, and an ocean view if you get to sit in the east side of the restaurant. Downfalls and Disappointments: Food portions small in relation to cost. We left hungry. Restaurant views north and south you get to see hotel guests going in and out of their hotel room. A view west you get the reception area, so the only good view is east to the ocean. We tried wine by the glass and alcohol. The only Cabernet by glass was "Bonanza" at $15 which is about $5 too much since the whole bottle is $14 retail. That's $15x5$75 they get for a $14 cost. Real nice, however icing on the cake was the bartenders are trained to measure an exact 6oz measured pour and not one drop more! Like it's a $200 bottle of wine lol All drinks with cheap alcohol measured same way you don't get one drop more of a 4 oz shot. Had a conversation with the resident manager who basically coughed it all up to "industry standard" attitude, not understanding you have got to let bartenders POUR! Anyway my professional suggestion for this venue is good luck getting returning locals to come in on a regular basis when there are plenty of other venues we can spend our money and feel like we are getting our money's worth and stop the "industry standard attitude " of working your bar off a spreadsheet. If you plan to visit this restaurant, make sure you either eat something light before you go, and drink a few drinks before hand to help out on this visit

After about a 20 minute wait we were shown to our table in the back right corner of the main interior dining room with JR as our server. Service was great and the food even better. We went all in tasting the following; - Fried Deviled Eggs - Fried Goat Cheese Croquettes - Fried Okra - Pimento Cheese - Dill Pickle Cheddar Biscuits - Petite Beef Tenderloin - Cheesecake Everything was absolutely delicious and I do mean EVERYTHING. You won't go wrong with any of these selections. We left stuffed and had plenty of leftovers to take with us to enjoy as snacks later in the evening. I definitely have a new go-to spot when I'm in the area next time.
