Hef burger is a must, and hot dogs are too. Good fries, great service! To crowded and noisy. With their business take the pool table out and put more tables. read more

My wife and my experience here was fantastic. First time here and we will be back. We sat down and within a few minutes we had hot coffee and we each had eggs she had hash browns and I had the fried potatoes with onions and peppers. Everything was hot and brought out quickly. The place is in the style of a diner and is comfortable and friendly. The open kitchen gives the vibe of a diner a little noise but just enough and the smells are pleasant read more

Shorty's Grill - Our epic breakfast - American Near Me - Loris, South Carolina

This has happened a lot more than once. I've given this place a lot of chances, I really tried to like it. No customer should have to ask for extra chili to get a regular amount of chili put on a hotdog. Every single time, my pinky is bigger than the chili they put on my hotdogs unless I ask them to put extra. You don't have to be blind to see that's barely chili for anyone. They put chili on like it's a suggestion. If a restaurant sees something like skimping as not a problem, they likely have a lot more problems they're hiding from customers. Besides members of staff fussing and belittling other member of staff out where all customers can see. This place is just trying hard to be Fowlers with subar flavor and no common sense. It takes the L in L-Town. Will never be returning, all of my money will go to the OG, Fowlers Grill. read more

Came in today just stopped in to grab a burger. Never been before and we ordered 2 burgers and some fries. We waited 5 minutes to get our waters and when I asked about the waters the server gave me attitude and muttered that I should just make it myself. I told her she was being disrespectful and she got loud and said she wasn't. Food was terrible. Looked kind of clean in there but overall was a horrible experience and I won't spend a dime in this place again. read more

Great people they are so nice and spectacular food I have started to crave staff is soooooo nice they will never cop a attitude with you there specials are my go to and the onion rings and a Pepsi and me and my family love to play in the arcade so in the back and the pool table What wait there is not hardly a long wait read more

The absolute best!! Everything was awesome! Great service, amazing burger and the best onion rings I've had in South Carolina! So worth the ride from the beach!!! read more

The ambience was great waitress was friendly and coffee right off the bat. No sooner than I to sugar into the cup I was shocked to find my eggs grits pancakes have arrived. The sausage was seasoned just right the grits were great over easy just right! Eggs not browned on the edges .A few retired army guys there to talk to. The waitress came over her table visit got me another cup of coffee. I didn't have to wait. It's extremely hard to find an old school restaurant that has such great service. You won't find a place like this where the price is fair the Staff is friendly.The service was fast the food was Hot and tasty! only improvement would be parking for motorcycles. I had to park half a block away, but it was worth it. read more

This is that local restaurant that when you go in with expectations from the last visit you're not disappointed. Locally owned and operated. Great southern cooking. We look forward to breakfasts here as often as life allows. read more

Cheeseburger with "fresh cut" fries but they are called "home fries" here. Confused me but they are AWESOME!! Hamburg patties are HOMEMADE!!! They do NOT serve those frozen junk patties here!!!!

Great teamwork. Thanks for lunch. We will be back! read more

Great breakfast and cooks are very friendly! The lady at the register both times I have come in to order/pick up a take-out order has had a bad attitude. Highly recommend the super hashbrowns! read more

I don't know if Southerners have different taste buds or expectations from a breakfast place but this place leaves very much to be desired if you're looking for a good breakfast go anywhere else. It's a cheap breakfast but you'll quickly find out why. read more

First time experience at Shorty's Grill. I had large sausage, grits and eggs. The sausage was the best I've tasted and the grits were cooked perfectly. The service was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very clean and I liked the old time feel of the place. We will definately be back. I highly recommend Shorty's Grill! read more

Good food fast service. Just wish they'd stay open later. Love the home fries. They're like homemade cut up fried potatoes.

Had lunch there on a Thursday and enjoyed the special bog! Excellent food and service...small town friendly was told about this place in Myrtle Beach. Next time I'm in Myrtle Beach I'll make the trip to go to Shortys. Jeff Barron Tigard Oregon read more

Doesn't look like much. The food is extremely good. There is a reason why all the locals go there. You get a good size plate for the money.

Good food. Good service and prIce. We have been going here for the past few years and will continue to go read more

Grabbed a hot dog on the way home from the beach today. An "all the way" hot dog ($1.19) comes with chili, onion and mustard. I added slaw (35cent), and it was okay. Bun wasn't toasted, that would have helped. Friendly folks working there. read more

I was starving and was passing by so I decide to eat here even though I usually don't eat out a lot. I was hoping this experience would help me change my mind on eating out because after past experiences at other restaurants I am super skeptical about eating out. I ordered a CheeseBurger and some fries but the fries came out super soggy and gross. So I asked to get a new order of fries but crispy. Not long after this request a curly red head cook that went by the name of Will came out of the kitchen with a aggravated demeanor. He walk up to me and yelled in my face, " You don't like your fries huh? Then make them yourself bitch!" This scared me and I left immediately. I don't know if I will ever eat out again after eating here. read more

It's a basic grill and a no reason to want to go back to grill. I can't believe they used square wrapper cheese like Kraft singles in our scrambled egg and our omelette which is horrible! It definitely has the potential to be a good short order grill. I think they just lack the passion and figure its good enough since the 70 and 80 year old customers still show up. Unless they improve breakfast by using real shredded cheese and more flavor in their food; I'll make the drive and stick with Curly's Cafe in Little River! read more

Shorty's Grill is a great hometown restaurant... owned and operated by locals Shorty and Betty Conner... it is there objective to make sure that you have a good dining experience with them... whether it be inside dining or take out... they have daily home cooked meals that are just wonderful... all of the locals just love them... make sure if your driving through the town of Loris South Carolina that you stop by Shorty's Grill... I give them 5 stars.....Julie Hewett read more

This was exactly what I was wanting. Breakfast in a small home town cafe where the food is freshly cooked and tastes like mamma's cooking. Friendly people and nice atmosphere. Worth the stop. We were just passing through and took yelps suggestion for breakfast but the one it sent us to was closed and just a block away was Shorty's. read more

This place is a Loris icon! Has made its name through an awesome family, awesome food, and awesome service. Good menu options. Cooked to order. Games and pool tables for the kiddos. Highly recommended! read more

If the guy would keep his hands ,no gloves out of the pickle jar, I'd gave 5 stars! Love their hotdogs and burgers! The employees saw him too! That's just nasty and unsanitary! read more

I have been coming down this way for a couple of dozen years and I have never even thought about stopping in this part of town. I am so quick to visit my parents in the more rural part of Loris and then high tail it to the beach, that I forget to slow down the pace and take in some of the more nostalgic parts of the area. I have frequented downtown when I was young and I have shopped at Food Lion on a number of occasions, but somehow, I passed Shorty's. This won't happen again. The area is something out of downtown USA. I would not have been surprised if Andy Griffith and Barney Fife saddled up beside me at the counter. This was, in every way, my idea of the perfect breakfast. I sat at the counter and was greeted by the cook and order taker all rolled into one. I had the 2 pancake meal with side of meat (country ham-the thick salty kind!), added a side of soft cooked bacon, eggs scrambled hard, orange juice, coffee. This breakfast was all kinds of yummy. Coffee brewed perfectly, bacon cooked soft, syrup flowing for days, fluffy pancakes, fresh eggs! How in the world I never found this place in my 50 something years coming to Loris. I now can just pop out of bed, drive down SC-410 E/SC-9 Business and get me some real true blue diner food deliciousness. Everyone working in here was super nice and treated me like family. You can tell when people really enjoy coming into work. The team was just clicking on all cylinders. Take out orders were doing a brisk business. The counter service was hopping. Delivery was on point. Just a well oiled machine all around. If anyone can tell me how I can get my hands on one of them Shorty's t-shirts I'd be much obliged! read more

Wish we were around for breakfast!! Would have loved to try their corn beef hash...next time! We would definitely eat here again. read more

Fabulous. Iconic. Best fries around. Small town diner. Inexpensive but good food. Classic.

A staple in Loris and has been around for years and for good reason. The owners are wonderful people and I grew up with their son. The food is great and they have burgers, hotdogs, and fries to hamburger steaks and fried chicken(which is the best in town). Prices are good and you won't be sorry or hungry when you leave. read more

Stopped for dinner with wife. Nice diner setting. Both ordered iced teas. Came in large styrofoam cups plus waitress brought a pitcher of iced tea as well. Wife ordered cheese burger with sweet potato fries, I ordered BBQ dinner with choice of two sides (toss salad and fresh cut fries). Salad was very small but very fresh. BBQ dinner came was hot and also had two dinner rolls. The shredded BBQ meat was very tasty sauce was slightly sweet and tangy. Wife raved about her burger and the sweet potato fries were very good. Both left full and for $16. read more

So I called to place an order as I have seen the shortys car around town here in loris and it advertises that they deliver, they don't. The lady on the other end of the phone sounded oh so happy to be working there like her whole life that's all she wanted to do (sarcasm). Needless to say I won't ever eat here no matter how good the food sounds. False advertising and rude staff. read more

Amazing place to eat! Amazing food here and we loved the environment. Definitely stopping here again!

Waitress was not the most friendly. Our food took a little long to come out. Omelettes ordered were a little over cooked and biscuits and gravy just ok. My brother ordered the fried chicken and said it was excellent. Place very loud and just sub par service. I would go elsewhere next time. We waited a long time for our check though the restaurant was empty. I asked for a side of grits that never came. read more

Hamburger steak was off the chain. The staff is very friendly. The prices are amazing and the food is well worth it. If you are looking for good country cooking you found the right place. read more

Smoky bathrooms. No soap in men's. Cooks couldn't wash hands. Breakfast was just okay. Not a pleasant experience. We won't be back.

Shorty's grill is overall a fantastic place to eat. The food is great the prices are average and the service is mostly great (I'll get back to that shortly). The area is really sketchy especially at night so be careful walking from the very sparse parking options. The service is overall amazing with one person ruining the experience for me overall and that would be Tammy. She is always standing around watching and commanding everyone behind the line while standing there with her arms crossed. She is loud and rude to fellow employees and comes off short with most customers. I don't know if she is in some leadership position but she sure acts like she is better than everyone else back there and makes her rudeness extremely evident to the point of being uncomfortable. I felt extremely awkward watching her do nothing and seeing the frustration towards her in the eyes of her coworkers. Overall the place is great, the food is great and the people are (mostly) very kind. It's unfortunate that I no longer want to return because of how uncomfortable Tammy made me feel. read more
