    King prime rib and Seafood Platter
    Carroll S.

    We love Salt Water Grille. Simple meals that satisfy and friendly staff. We were first excited that they offer Prime Rib Fridays and Saturdays. They started a Thursday night all you can eat BBQ buffet. Ribs, pulled pork, chopped pork and BBQ chicken. The sides change a bit from week to week but favorites like collard greens, sweet potatoes, beans, squash, potato salad, fries and hush puppies are some of the fare as well as rolls and a cobbler or pudding. They have other buffet days (I think Sundays too-check schedule) There is a bar attached and you can eat at either the bar or restaurant side. There is usually the news or sports on the televisions on the restaurant side. In the summer you may need a light sweater as by dinner the air conditioning finally catches up with the heat during the humid summer days. Nice family restaurant

    This restaurant is designed only for the Caucasian aka White people in the area. They don't respect African American nor Hispanic or Latino..I dined in there for the first time last week and I was treated like my ancestors during the Jim Crow era. I was seated and for a whole hour, I was never checked on, drink cup wasn't filled or even paid any attention. I'm a hard working Black Man and I've never fully had this kind of blatant racism brought directly to me in all the days of my life. I will never eat from such fish established and the food taste like trash. Lettuce is the best thing you could get when working in there.

    We had a fantastic experience from food to service! Upon arrival we entered on the dining/buffet side of the restaurant. There was only one table of diners at that time and the buffet was not open. We decided to head over to the bar side and it was poppin' . We grabbed a couple tables close to the bar for our party of 8 and we were greeted by a friendly server. We ordered a round of drinks and placed our orders. Drinks were served quickly and food came out hot and fresh! Our server went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. The hush puppies with cinnamon butter were absolutely delicious! Nice little place for some quick, fresh, fried seafood

    We visited on Wednesday June 5th of 2024. We had the cheeseburger and I had fries and my wife had the sweet potato fries. Our burgers were really good and cooked perfectly. We had tea to drink. They served us some hush puppies with honey butter that were very good. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. Uploading pictures of our food and the menu.

    We went for a motorcycle ride since the weather was so nice. We saw this place and decided to try it out for lunch. It is a popular "locals" place which quickly filled up for lunch. They have a buffet or you can order from the menu. The buffet changes daily. We wanted to sample a little of everything. The fried chicken was very good. Crispy and not greasy with moist meat inside. The chicken and dumplings and beef stew was also good. I tried the fried chicken gizzard which I never had before. Not really something for me. For sides we tried the potato salad, mashed potato w/gravy, mac-n-cheese and pasta salad. Also very good. There were vegetables as well but we didn't try them. Wait staff was friendly and attentive. Prices were also good, buffet today was $13 per person. We will come back again when in the area.

    Flounder basket and BLT and sweet potato fries!

    A bit disappointed they took shrimp and grits off the menu! But the service was great and the fried flounder and coleslaw were excellent! Hushpuppies a bit bland and doughy but both types of fries were also good!

    Pork chops
    Crystal P.

    We're vacationing in Cherry Grove (North Myrtle) and found Salt Water Grille on Google. We are so glad we did. This place is a true gem that is away from the hustle and bustle of Myrtle, and so worth the drive! The service was so friendly from the moment we walked in the door. Everything we had was delicious. The hush puppies were delicious and were served with amazing butter that tasted like it had cinnamon and maybe a little bit of honey. So good!! My sons had the kids grilled cheese sandwich and kids chicken tenders and they both loved their meals... That speaks volumes because my kids are so picky! I had the grilled pork chops and they're probably the best ones I've ever had. They tasted like they had been marinated because they were so moist and so tender. And they were huge! My husband had a grilled chicken breast, which he enjoyed. My dad had a BBQ sandwich and my mom had a BLT, which they both said were very good. We had no complaints. The prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back on our next vacation. I highly recommend this place if you're on vacation anywhere near Myrtle Beach! It's a must try!

    Pork Prime Rib Eye
    Ron N.

    Food was good and portion size plentiful. I had the pork prime rib eye which was fantastic, tender and juicy. The fries are hand cut, not my favorite. The slaw was good, (on the sweet side for those slaw enthusiasts out there). My wife had the Fish and chips and opted for a baked potato instead of the fries (good choice). The cod fish was very good and she liked the hush puppies as well. Service was fantastic. It's not a fancy restaurant but a very good local spot away from the hustle and bustle of Myrtle Beach.

    Sat outside along the walkway watching the sunset. Food was…read morevery good and waiter was very nice and attentive. Seafood linguine was amazing. Recommend if you want a good place.

    I hold give this a 3.5 if I could. I reserve 5 stars for excellence. I feel like a 3 is too low,…read morebut a 4 is too high. We have been here many times. It has almost always been a good experience. However, I was disappointed this time because we have ALWAYS been told (in or off season) that they do not take reservations. We even checked their website again before coming this time and it says on their website that they DO NOT take reservations. Upon arriving to the restaurant we were told that we would have to wait longer because we did not have a reservation. We were told that even though they say they do not take reservations, they do now because it is the off season. I guess we were supposed to read their minds and know that their policy changes at an unadvertised date. Poor customer service if you ask me. The food was good as usual (we love their fish spread). Our waitress was kind and helpful, even making sure that we got the best price possible on our food by choosing an item off the happy hour menu for us. The dining area was adequately clean. The bathrooms are adequate as well. I will say that the most trouble we have had is with the host staff. This is not our first time having issues with them being unfriendly or not paying attention to customers. For these reasons I feel like a 4 star review would be too generous.
