    Bud light!
    Joseph L.

    The waitress was so on point and knowledgeable. She made suggestions. The ambiance is so nice. You get to sit by the pool if you're outside. There are some pesky flies but whatever. The food was BANGING!! The burger was literally incredible.

    I like to consider myself and onion ring aficionado and believe me when I say these onion rings are top notch!!! When you bite in, the onion doesn't pull along with it and the crunch is panko perfection!!! I just loved it! The price was a little high for 5 onion rings so my tips is just to add it to your burger/sandwich for $3.99 instead of paying for it full price. Granted, you'll get less but the price works out. My Fork & Knife burger was delicious. I forgot to add cheese so don't forget to do that. And everyone else loved their food too. Our server was nice. Not a hoverer but there when you needed something. Lots of seating and LOTS of decoration on the walls. Everything from license plates to stickers. Didn't like that the bathrooms were outside the building and they were stuffy with almost zero air conditioning.

    This sounds dern good

    Went to the River City Cafe by the Dunes the other day - there's _seven_ locations, so they're doing something right :) I thought RCC had pretty good food (a burger), a suitable beach-divey vibe and location, location, location... I think if you're in the Myrtle Beach area, it'd almost be hard not to have eaten here once or twice before. The burger was alright and the service was quick. I was a bit surprised by the size of the cocktails though, not a 'great' value in that department.

    "This is a damn good burger" - my brother who likes burgers a good amount Our server was friendly and helpful with recommendations!

    Cheese pops
    Melanie B.

    AMAZING food! We ordered cheese pops as an appetizer, it's deep fried cheese curds served with marinara. Delicious! I ate the grouper fingers. Probably the best fried fish almost ever. Fresh and light, not greasy at all and served with fries, cole slaw (with raisins) and cocktail/tartar sauce. The place itself is decorated in bad graffiti, license plates from all over and the bathrooms (outside) are gross. Our waitress Samantha, was very sweet.

    Jalapeño jam burger and pork bbq sandwich with fries and coleslaw.
    Melanie M.

    Really fun place. Small dining room and bar area inside and seating outside with a bar. We had the pork bbq sandwich and jalapeño jam burger. Soooo good! The burger was spicy and sweet. The bbq sandwich had a mild smoked taste. We sat at the bar inside. Bartender was great. Food came out quick and hot. They have some epic burgers on the menu.

    Awesome Blossom Onion

    Salt & Lime has a lot going for it right from the start--once you finally find the entrance. The…read moreapproach is awkward and confusing, tucked away enough that you begin to wonder if you've accidentally wandered into the maintenance area instead of a restaurant. Once inside, though, the place is genuinely attractive. The dining room is bright, clean-looking, and modern, with a relaxed coastal style. The outdoor patio and beach view are the real stars. Sitting outside looking toward the ocean is exactly why people come to a place like this. The food was mostly good. The chips were thin and crisp, the guacamole fresh and homemade, and the salsa was simple but tasty. The chili lime bowls were fresh and flavorful, and the beach bowl and surf-and-turf salad were both very good. The kids' burger special with two little sliders and fries was a smart idea and worked perfectly. The margaritas were also good. The Salt & Lime margarita and the Flaca "skinny" margarita were both enjoyed by everyone at the table. Our server, Pierre, was excellent--friendly, attentive, and easygoing. And despite the name, no, he is not French. Unfortunately, the restroom was a real problem. The dining room looked polished, but the restroom was visibly dirty, with grime and stains around the fixtures and toilet. Fair or not, that always makes people wonder how careful the kitchen is as well. A restaurant can spend a fortune on light fixtures and ocean views, but if the restroom is neglected, people notice. Overall, Salt & Lime has a beautiful setting, good food, good drinks, and a terrific server, but the restroom and awkward entrance keep it from being a place I could fully recommend without hesitation.

We left sad and disappointed to way they talked to us. What could improve? If food is coming, alert your table, then look around and ask if you can provide refills, keep eyes open when customers are flagging arms to get your attention, our server veered 12 feet away to avoid contact to refill glass of water. Treat people politely and don't argue when trying to get help.

    This sports bar was opened in, I believe 2024, and is located in the heart of Myrtle Beach in a…read morestrip mall on Highway 17 Business. There's plenty of free parking lot parking out front. We visited this location just before Christmas 2025 at about 6:30 pm on a weeknight and the joint was quite lively. They had a singer/guitar player doing his thing (we didn't really care for him, but that's ok) and the bar was well staffed. It's called Bourbon Street, but it's definitely not a whiskey or bourbon bar. Yes, they have Blanton's and a few other premium bourbons, but you won't find anything exotic at all here bourbon wise. This place is a sports bar that does bar food and steaks and they run happy hour specials as well. We didn't eat on our visit, but those that ordered food had dishes/items that definitely looked appealing. Prices are pretty fair here, but we felt the gem of this location was it's service. We never had to wait long at all to be served or refilled. Their bartenders (we were served by three different ones) were very friendly and quite attentive to all their customers. There's free wifi and plenty of seating both at the bar and at tables throughout. The floor plan is cut up sort of weirdly and I do wish it was one huge, open floor plan, but the roof support doesn't seem to allow for it. They do have a small stage in one corner for musicians, etc. This is a good sports bar that seems to do a really good job of sports barring. Check it out if you're looking for a competent and friendly sports bar.

    Let me start off by saying Kate was absolutely awesome! Very hard working and is very polite. If…read moreeveryone worked as hard as her we'd be much better off. The food was absolutely amazing!
