Check your seat before you sit down otherwise when you leave your pants may look like my poor mother's. To add insult to injury when she called to let the manager know he asked why she didn't tell them while she was still there....uhhh, because no one saw her ass until we had already left the restaurant and were getting in the car! As consolation she was offered the 800 corporate phone number to complain about it to them. Just bad service all around. Compassion would have gone much further. (Not to mention the service during dinner left much to be desired.) read more

Really good food. Not too pricey either! Tacos are superb and chips tasted fresh. The staff was really nice and apologetic when our food took a little long. Came out hot though! Overall would come again read more

Went here after a horrible experience with customer service at P.F Changs. The food here at Nacho Hippo was amazing and our waitress Katlyn was great. This place is great if you are looking for Mexican food. read more

A very good place to eat, hang with friends, plays good music, but they did mess up my order but they fixed it.

Amazing food! Their bangin' shrimp nachos were the best sriracha shrimp dish I've ever had! Great service; fast and friendly but not overbearing. Atmosphere was fun; good music and lots of fun walk decor to keep you entertained!! read more

The service was SO good as well as the meal. I wish they had this restaurant up north. They were able to accommodate to substitutions and vegetarians. Lovely atmosphere. A little too crowded inside so we had to eat outside with no heaters. Would DEFINITELY go here again and I totally recommend it. read more

I have been here two times now and both times I have had excellent food and service!! The nachos are sooo good!!! It's a very neat little place to visit if you go to Myrtle Beach!! Totally would recommend this place to anyone!! Especially if they love nachos like me!! read more

My boyfriend and I occasionally visit here to get some shrimp nachos to share and we are never disappointed! The price is under $20 for a shareable platter and we can never even finish the whole plate. A go to restaurant in Market Commons! read more

I've been here several times. Don't absolutely love their food but the atmosphere and friendly service outweighs the mediocre food for me. I will say that the queso is good and that is mandatory for a Mexican restaurant. Lol Consider reevaluating the menu. You guys would be so much busier with better tasting options. Food is fresh but lacks good flavor. read more

Good place to eat. They have outdoor seating and a fun atmosphere. Food is great and I highly recommend the treehugger nachos! If you like Pokémon, it is a Pokestop and also a gym. Service is hit or miss and that is the only thing that knocks it to 4 stars instead of five. read more

Quick but bland. Which is fine for an airport I guess but at the same time I have had way better in other airports. Grits were watery and service a bit impersonal (which again as an airport I get it). read more

fairly priced AMAZING mexican food. Miranda, our waitress, is one of the best waitresses I've ever had. Definitely will be visiting again next summer. read more

The food was good. The nachos were a little dry so had to order extra queso to lather them up. Otherwise, everything was fine.

The tacos are delish but the service is not so hot. The last time that I was there, I was seated right away but was "forgotten" for about 15 minutes. When the server FINALLY came over, she didn't apologize but hurried my order along....like I was an inconvenience. Once the food arrived, I never saw her again until she dropped off my check. Very disappointed in their lack of professionalism, but boy did they seem to be having a great time.....playing at the hostess stand! read more

"Very meh" Had dinner here tonight. All of the tables were full so we thought that was a good sign. The menu looked really good and we were excited about what we ordered but it was just poorly executed. We got the trio of salsas and an order of guac to start salsas we ok chips were pretty lackluster guac was good though I'll give them that. I ordered the shrimp taco and a blackened fish taco with rice and beans. The shrimp had that just out of the freezer bleach taste, the blackened fish wasn't really blackened and I'm pretty sure it was undercooked. The waitress told us the kitchen was really backed up and I think they were rushing to get orders out. The beans were flavorless, rice was mushy but had an ok flavor to it. My boyfriend also got the blackened fish taco and he got whatever the curry taco was and said it didn't taste anything like curry but had an ok flavor. Overall disappointed and bummed I spent 30 dollars on my meal. Would have rather gone somewhere nicer and just gotten a pricier but quality entree and no appetizer. Don't recommend. read more

Saw great reviews on Yelp, and decided to try it out on our vacation. They weren't lying! Such wonderful food with a GREAT atmosphere and really affordable prices. I ordered two different types of tacos, both amazing. My mother ordered the chicken chimichanga, which was a large portion, and delicious! We split the chips and salsa trio for starters, which is and endless bowl of chips and extremely filling. We barely ate half of our meal! They also have a really large variety of drinks, and all are delicious. Red wine sangria is a must! Even the Classic Margarita was wonderful, and if you go at the right time, they're only $3! Yes $3!! Definitely a must if you're a fan of mexican and looking for a fun atmostphere. read more

Coming from a local, this is one of my favorite places to go have a drink and relax. The market common atmosphere rules and the service is always great especially at the bar. Food is a little inconsistent, hence the 4 stars, but we always have a nice time over drinks at Nacho. The what the cluck quesadilla and the bangin shrimp tacos are favorites of mine read more

I freaking love this place! The build your own nachos are HUGE and so worth the price. The other people in my party got the tacos and a burrito and everyone was very satisfied with our meal. I would come here again and again just for the amazing nachos, and that's coming from a self proclaimed picky eater! read more

I have been to this location several times pre-covid. The service and quality of food has declined since reopening. We didn't receive our margaritas until after the meals arrived. They seemed to be lacking something, not very well made, usually they are excellent. Steak fajitas were a disappointment. Instead of strips of steak it seemed to shaved beef. This may be an attempt to recoup the loss of business during the time they were shut down. Not the way to get customers back in! Won't be returning read more

We had a great experience at Nacho Hippo. We went into the restaurant as part of a soccer tournament. There were 14 FAMILIES in our party. Not only did they bend over backwards to accommodate us and our rambunctious 9 year-olds, but the food was really good, the service was solid and our experience was great! We will be back. read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant at the beach! The food is amazing and the service is always great.

Absolutely loved this place! Great food, Nachos were amazing. Our server Osama was wonderful, best server ever!! We will be back our next visit to SC!! read more

Nice little restaurant in a sea of eateries. Good food, great prices and wonderful service.

Such a yummy place! Hubby and I went out on a date night last year when we're vacationing in the area. This war we brought our whole family back. I got a nacho plate the first two times and tried some tacos the third time! Everything has been great. My fish taco was a little spicier than I was ready for, but I think that comes with the territory. We will be back next year! read more

Really really good food and awesome atmosphere. When we come down to MB we make it a point to stop and get the shrimp and lobster nachos and shrimp quesadilla. Delicious. read more

My last visit was 3 yrs ago & was much better... The $3. Margarita was weak & in a plastic glass, as was the water in flimsy plastic. The corn was over cooked with no spice. But, the Nachos ware large & delicious with fresh jalapeno! read more

I'm here, they have no clue. I don't know what to do, do I review? What would you do? Scooby Do? Should I be honest or impartial?

Wow! What a great place to eat! Had the Kahuna Taco platter. Had a hard time choosing my entree as there were so much good options to choose from! Caitlin was a great server! Can't wait to come back! read more

I got one of their tacos and there was a little more meat than I bargained for. Other than that, the pico was great and the nachos were awesome. The burrito was a bit salty but the beans and everything else were great. Overall great place. read more

Decided to finally give Nacho Hippo a try since we come to this area often and have already tried multiple restaurants in market common that have become our favorite. The service given by Mackenzie was good as she offered us many good options. However, I was underwhelmed with the quality of the food. We arrived there around 8pm and were seated right away. I was offered a gluten free menu that included an appetizer option, an entree option, and a few choices of tacos (served with corn tortillas). We ordered the 'fresh guacamole' and chips for our appetizer, which I quickly realized was not one bit fresh and tasted like it came out of a store bought container. As a vegetarian/pescatarian, I eat a lot of guacamole when I got out to eat because it a good source of protein and I just love it so it was easy for me to recognize their's was not at all fresh. For my main dish I ordered 3 tacos, one with seared tuna, one shrimp, and one vegetarian taco. The shrimp taco was ordered from the kids gluten free menu so I was surprised by how spicy it was, even for someone who typically eats spicy food. Overall, I enjoyed the tacos. Our server offered us desert since they offered a gluten free fudge cake option. Before I decided to give it a try, I asked the server what type of flour was used in the cake and she proceeded to tell me that there wasn't any flour and insisted that the box said it was gluten free however, once we got the cake and we were eating it I realized there was a thin layer of cake in between the fudge. I was very disappointed because the server had told me there was no flour in the cake, which by looking at the cake was obviously wasn't true. I was very disappointed as I had a stomach ache for the rest of the night. Most people think that being gluten free is a trend and a choice and I get very irritated when people assume just because something is gluten free that it's ok for people with an intolerance to eat which is not always true. Replacements of wheat products can sometimes have a similar protein to gluten and therefore your body treats it as such. I don't think I'll be coming back here again. read more

I've been going to this place for years and love everything about it. The atmosphere is laid back, their hungry hippo nachos are phenomenal, and their margaritas are good! The past few times we have gone in we have gotten Sarah as our waitress and now we request her and wait extra just to have her as our server because she's so kind and entertaining! read more

We are from out of town and were visiting Myrtle on vacation, we saw nacho hippo and HAD to try!! All I can say is that every time we go to myrtle we will definitely be checking into Nacho Hippo! We sat outside and the food was delicious!!! I got 3 different tacos and it was so reasonably priced!! My kids lived it as well read more

Nacho Hippo - So many different things to choose from!! - Mexican Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

It is with great regret that I write this review... Check-in at the hostess stand was very confusing and we could not get a straight answer from the host and hostess on how long it would be before we were seated. The guy host was very rude when I was asking questions. Secondly, there were hoards of people just standing around waiting to be seated while one four-top table, four six-top tables, and one two-top table was empty. The four-top had been empty for a while but no one had cleaned it off. We finally found three seats at the bar and decided to order because we had been there waiting for over 45 minutes already. It was extremely hot inside this restaurant. I ordered a beer and before I could drink it all it was very warm at the bottom. So I ended up grabbing a water after I finished it. Everyone, looked miserable that worked there. I blame that entirely on the management. No clear guidance and if I was very hot as a patron I can only imagine working in those conditions. The only reason I give them 3 stars is the food. They have very large portions at reasonable prices. And the tacos are excellent!! read more

My boyfriend and I wanted to grab dinner somewhere close to the condos we rented for the week. I suggested Mexican and found this place. Unfortunately the service was not that great, our server forgot our drinks which we had to remind her to bring us. We got our appetizer which was the three way and peters pickled peppers. I usually enjoy chips and dip but the three way was nowhere close to enjoyable. The dips that came with the chips were not good. My boyfriend did enjoy the peters pickled peppers. For our entree my boyfriend ordered the sloppy burrito and I ordered two tacos, I chose banging shrimp and ka-ka-ka kia. When the entrees arrived, I realized the banging shrimp had a sweet sauce to it, I do not like sweet and salty mixed together so I took two bites of that and put it down. The ka-ka-ka-Kia was so salty my first bite I spit it out and downed my soda. My boyfriends sloppy burrito was delicious though. We ended up sharing the sloppy burrito and I pushed my plate to the side. Overall, definitely not returning the next time we visit. read more

Fun place to hang out and eat with your family . Drinks and food were awesome. Definitely will go back

Build your own nanchos and man were they great! The personal portion is more than enough. Great environment too.

So it's always hard to give what I consider a bad review when I really enjoyed my meal. The last two times we stayed in MB we mainly ate at Ultimate California Pizza. It is fantastic. I picked up a brochure for Nacho Hippo. Owned by the same group and I love Mexican. So of course I hit Yelp and did some research. Decided to make it our meal stop on the way in since we stay up in Grande Dunes. Parked right in front and was excited. We walked in and were greeted but then the hostess turns around and keeps talking about who is here? The manager was standing right there and said take care of your people. Good idea. She led us to a table. Fine. We looked over the menu. It sometimes takes me longer to figure out what I want than it does to eat it. So we figured out our plan. But then no one ever came to greet us. Guess they never learned the first step is a 60 second greet? We waited. And waited. The hostess came to the table behind us and gave them menus. Yes they had been sitting there with no menus. The hostess never even looked our way to see we had no drinks. Eventually the other table got up abd relocated to the bar. I walked back up front and inquired if there was anyone working our table. One server asked where we were sitting and walked back to the kitchen. A few minutes later a guy finally came over. We shared a hipponachomus (sp?) and each had one taco. I had the bangin shrimp and Mom had the baja fish. Both were very good. The nachos were huge and delicious and even 2 of us could not eat the whole thing. So the food scores 4 stars. Not the best in my life but definitely worth a trip. However our nightmarish service was not over. My main requirement when I dine is keep my drink full and don't make me ask for it. The guy did well at making sure we had tea during our meal. Toward the end of the mesl I thought to myself okay one more tea and then I'm good to go. Our server had not been out for a while. No biggie. He will be back in a minute. Hmmmmm maybe. That's not him. That's not him. Where did he go? Well he either went home or forgot about us. We never saw him again. So i never got aby more tea. We never even got a bill. This is the first time in my life I have ever considered leaving without even paying. Mom was thinking the same thing but having worked in restaurants most of my life I said no. I can't do that. So we added up in our head what it may have been and left the money on the table. Don't know if there's tax on food here. Don't know if we overpaid or underpaid. Oh well. read more

Extremely rude and racist staff. Had us waiting to be seated when clearly there was available seating inside, then offered to sit me outside. I told her absolutely not, she then claimed she had to wait before she seated us, which made no sense. My family and I decided this place was not worth our money, clearly they are not use to diversity. read more
