Absolutely amazing would 100℅ recommend eating here I would eat here again best seafood place I have ever eaten at.

Wife seen this place on tic tok and it was decided to go for no other reason but the fact the buffet looks like ships. Food was good plenty to choose from even if you're not a seafood person. Price is kinda high at 50 a person but still with it. The mermaids had the night off only down side but still had the tic tok captain there making videos which was entertaining to watch and he was really nice and would take pictures with you. If you in the area this is a nice fun restaurant to go to read more

We took our kids out for seafood and to see the mermaid! ‍ Unfortunately, we were seated in the back of the restaurant, so we couldn't really see the mermaid except when we walked in and when we were leaving. The food and service were top notch! Our waitress was wonderful with the kids and interacted with them throughout our meal. She was also very attentive and kept our table clean, taking away baskets and crab leg shells as we went. I'm only giving 3 stars because we felt it was extremely overpriced, especially for our 7-year-old. Paying $25+ for a child's meal felt like a lot for what was offered. Overall, it was a nice experience and the staff was great, but unfortunately, it's not somewhere we'll be back to. read more

This was such a fun experience! Waiters dressed as pirates and mermaids swimming in water, such a unique and cool dining experience. The price was reasonable for the atmosphere and buffet experience of all you can eat. The stuffed shrimp was delicious!! Friendly staff, great food, incredible decor and vibes. I highly recommend checking out this spot if you are looking for an all you can eat seafood buffet. read more

We had to go to seafood buffet for our kids before we left to go home. This place is near my parents house so we decided to come. It is smaller than other buffet places but I loved the simplicity of it. I think the food overall was pretty good. My favorites were their crab cakes and crab legs. The crab legs were fresh, easy to remove the shell, good flavor. The crab cakes were slightly sweet but fried perfectly, had a great crunch. I couldn't stop eating them. The oyster Rockefeller was good as well, I just wish they were hotter than what they were. They have like a pool area and my daughter said there's a mermaid ! When I looked back, sure enough there's a mermaid lol. My daughter loves mermaid so she went to talk to her and she even gave her a necklace. She was so sweet and even asked if we wanted a picture before we left. They make you exit through the gift shop which is a good marketing tactic lol. I actually really enjoyed this buffet and we got there before the rush came. read more

10/10 recommend! The food was AMAZING! Especially the Cajun crab legs! They have so much food to choose from, land and sea options. Service was phenomenal! Wish I could remember the name of the waitress we had, because she was fantastic! Constantly checking on us and emptying our crab leg baskets. The atmosphere is great! Such a big kid friendly atmosphere! The employees dress as pirates, and they have a live mermaid! They have a pirate that walks around and gives coins and rings to the kids! They have music! I can't rave enough about this place! read more

We typically come here every year on vacation and this year we so much different as in better due to one change. They have a pirate now that greets people and makes all the kids feel special with rings, pirate booty, and gems. His hospitality to the guests as a whole made the dining experience so much more bc our grandkids and other kids dining there engaged and not bored after being there for 30 mins giving me time to eat endless crabs legs lol. Of course the mermaid was the reason we go there for the kids in the first place but a huge high five (and tip) to the pirate they added on. Well played pirates table!!! Great experience! read more

Really good service and food, mainly heard of this through social media and it did not dissapoint. Ambiance is good and the theme of the place was fun! read more

Food was always hot and fresh. Atmosphere was also pleasing with a pirated ship look. Service was also phenomenal. Would recommend

Son was our server. The quality of the food was excellent, the service was great, ambiance was awesome, and the cleanliness was very great!

Recently stoped by while passing through Myrdal beach. Food had lots of variety and options. Service and atmosphere was on point!

Wanted to like this place but due to the cold crab legs, bland cold mahi mahi having to ask for a refill twice, and then getting sick afterwards I will not be back. The only good thing I had was the stuffed shrimp and crab cakes. read more

I can NOT express how bad the food was here. Nothing was hot, everything was cooked far beyond being done. It was done 15-30 minutes before being taken out of oven, off grill or whatever method it was cooked. Maybe this was yesterday's food re-heated? If you have kids and like a Pirate yelling "Arrrrrrrrrrrr" the whole time while waiting on the mermaids to come out and swim, this place might be for you. But if you are here to eat, do yourself a favor and keep driving. Wasted $130 on two people. read more

Crab legs overcooked, stringy and flavorless. This used to be our fave buffet when in the area--tried it twice and just not what it used to be. Service was good food was definitely not worth the price.' read more

Vacation means a stop at pirates table. No mermaids just yet. Still too cold per our restaurant host/ pirate. Everyone enjoyed the full Buffett soup and deserts. The buffet is located in a giant pirate ship in the middle of the restaurant. Service was great. Next trip this stop is on the permanent rotation. The cannon and the pirate music added to the experience. read more

The ambiance and decor is amazing. it's clear that someone really cared and put a lot of thought and time into making this restaurant a fun and exciting place to be read more

This buffet was phenomenal--very clean with excellent service. The pirate on site was incredibly friendly and welcoming to every table, and he was especially playful and engaging with all the kids. There were also mermaids swimming in the water, which made the experience even more memorable. The food was exceptional; the oysters, fried oysters, and crab legs were absolutely outstanding. We're from out of town and would definitely recommend this place. read more

We come here all throughout the year. but especially when my daughter comes to visit from Philly. She loves it there. It is very clean, food is plentiful, and delicious. The atmosphere is entertaining for all ages. We usually get Ira as our waitstaff server and she remembers us and what we usually get to drink. I give this place a big thumbs up. read more

There are a lot of seafood buffets in Myrtle Beach but Pirate's Table is one of the best. Hot fresh snow crab legs highlight the bar but there are so many other choices that's it's hard not to overeat. The place is clean and the service is always on point. They keep the table cleared of shells and keep the drinks filled The crawfish were fresh and easy to peel. The shrimp were huge. Crab legs were very good size so there's little waste. They have a nice salad bar and dessert bar as well. Not cheap but you're not going to find seafood that's both cheap and fresh on The Strand. read more

Great Jamie was amazing at serving our food at picking it up making sure we where ok and if we needed anything absolutely recommend

I mean if you are looking for an all you can eat seafood buffet then this is the place for you to go. We were in town for Spring Break, a plane flew over the beach with the AYCE crab legs, the teens figured out what it meant and immediately wanted nothing but crab legs. It's a cute place with live mermaids when you walk in, sea shanties on the loudspeakers and pirate themed waitstaff. They are super friendly and don't make you feel rushed. Beware, there is a picture up sale during your experience but they aren't pushy. Not sure I would go back but it was worth at least one visit. read more

The crab legs were very good. The other choices were pretty good. Would like to have seen more noodle salads and different side choices. The desert was not worth the calories. The atmosphere was fun. There were live mermaids and a funny joke telling pirate that kept it fun. Also the buffet was an actual long ship. Service was good and affordable for all the food we ate. Good job guys. We will be back. read more

Yelp showed open but they were closed Thursday night at 6 p.m. Need more info.. Went somewhere else close by.

Let's start by saying that I did not expect a quality seafood buffet in such a touristy town. Since they are on every corner in Myrtle Beach, I did my research to attempt to find the best one. We only visited the Pirates Table so can't exactly say, but I think we nailed it! The snow crab was awesome and every time I went back, they had it completely refilled. Half shell oysters, perfect. Just a huge variety and everything we tried was delicious. I'd go back to Myrtle Beach just to have this dinner again! read more

Food was awful. I ended up eating salad and mash potatoes. Biggest waste of money. Prime Rib was indescribable. read more

Pirate's Table Calabash Seafood Buffet - Seafood Near Me - Surfside Beach, South Carolina

We arrived right at opening. The service was amazing. Our waitress was on top of refills and clearing the table of used plates. The bathrooms and bar were clean. The food was just about as good as every other seafood buffet at the price point. I didn't notice much of a difference compared to others I have been to. Nothing was amazing but I don't really expect that at a buffet. I enjoyed the crab legs and the rest of my party said they were good as well. They did not enjoy the rest of the buffet food as much. I liked the ambiance overall. The mermaid tank was an interesting touch and the roaming pirate was fun, if a bit over the top. I didn't love having to think about tipping everyone. It is definitely tourist-trappy but worth trying it for something new. read more

Some of the seafood was a little over cooked but that is expected at a buffet. The crab and shrimp were good, the scallops a little rubbery. The prime rib and sausage add something for the non seafood lovers making this a great choice. Great service and a nice atmosphere top it off read more

Great food and great service. Huge restaurant nice "pirate" environment! Kids love it too.

This place never disappoints with their service, food, and ambiance. The one thing I do wish is if they could change up some of the buffet items every so often, but obviously keep the crab legs ! The servers are on top of their game and bring you drinks when you need a refill, and change the baskets out frequently. The mermaids and pirates are a nice touch too, which is great for kiddos! read more

Lots of variety for seafood lovers and for the folks that don't eat seafood. Service was great and the place was decorated nice. read more

Wow! What a fun Buffet! The pirate theme alone is worth the trip. Lol. As of right now it's $48.99 a person which seems to be average for all the buffets on the strip. Definitely worth it for all you can eat crab legs. The carved to order prime rib was so flavorful. We are happy happy customers. Will definitely be back! read more

Not worth the 49.99 per person. Bad selection of food. Try Crabby Mikes for better selection

We had great service, wish I could remember her name. Didn't wait at all to be sat, so the no wait time was awesome. The food was soooo good, so many choices. Nothing ever ran low. We will definitely be back read more

Pirate's Table Calabash Seafood Buffet - Seafood Near Me - Surfside Beach, South Carolina

First off, the entire staff couldn't have been any better-all very attentive your wants. Second, the ambiance was above and beyond-especially liked that the buffet was served from the deck of a pirate ship. Third, like every one else, there was nothing special about the buffet. With salad and dressings minus drinks there was approximately 75 items. Enough for us, just mostly tasteless-even the crab legs had no flavor. Great place to go if on a bland diet. Sorry, can not recommend or return. read more

Pirate's Table Calabash Seafood Buffet - Live mermaid and pirate theme!! - Seafood Near Me - Surfside Beach, South Carolina

Right off the bat, there's ALOT going on haha. They are really true to the pirate theme. The mermaids are neat and the staff stated they will be your "pirate" for the evening--which is cool. The buffet is smaller than we imagined-as compared to The Giant Crab or Benjamins BUT the crab was cooked to absolute perfection. We didn't have to fight for any meat at all and it wasn't overdone whatsoever. The deserts were hit and miss--the chocolate covered strawberries were soggy and the chocolate was flimsy on the Outside, the chocolate cake was SUPER dry, the watermelon had gotten warm and grainy but the dirt pudding was good and my husband raved over the pecan pie. For the money, we expected much more of a selection but we will probably return with our daughter for the experience. read more

Atmosphere is great for kids! The food is horrible... the only thing I could eat was the crab legs and those were super small. I love seafood, this food just all tasted like the same type of fish. I would not waste money there. I wasted 122 dollars after tax on 2 people.. left and picked up something else read more

Everything was good - pictures were amazing I had an amazing time. The food was good. The atmosphere was amazing. I celebrated my birthday. Everyone was very kind. read more

Our absolute favorite buffet in Myrtle Beach! The staff are all so friendly, the food is great, and nothing on the buffet is ever empty! We come here every year and are never disappointed! read more

Disappointment, crab was freezer burnt and tasted old. The rest of the food was mediocre at best. I feel that was money wasted. I'm sad. A lot of money spent for family of 6. I can get better crab an seafood back in Kansas. read more
