    Carolina's dawg and "small" order of onion rings.
    Raymond L.

    This was a great find. My golf round was unexpectedly cancelled, and I was looking for a lunch spot close by the Airbnb in which I'm staying. The service was friendly and efficient. I had the Carolina Dawg and a side of onion rings. I am glad that I ordered the small portion. I was pleasantly surprised when I got the takeout bag back to the condo at the plentiful serving of rings. The accompanying sauce was very tasty. Both the rings and the slaw "dawg" were delicious. The decor is both colorful and fun. The menu board is especially interesting.

    Finally had an opportunity to stop in for lunch at Surf Dawgs Grill and try their Smashburger's and fries. I tried the Key Largo burger and upgraded to disco fries. The burger was delicious and the fries were a nice comfort food compliment to the burger. Customer service was outstanding and the restaurant was extremely clean. They have a selection of cold beers available to order along with soft drinks, Milk Shakes, teas, etc. If you are craving gourmet hot dogs, delicious Smashburgers, and specialty fries, stop by Surf Dawgs Grill for a tasty meaI.

    Soul Dawg, crabby bastard fries

    Very good restaurant that's not afraid to play with their food in a good way! Great Service with good recommendations. The food was fantastic. Fries cooked perfectly crispy with good seasonings. Good portions for the price. Good southern sweet tea. I would recommend going for some of the more out there offerings instead of a basic chili cheese dog. I've never been a fan of pickles, but the spicy maple bourbon pickles on the Maui burger didn't taste like pickles and weren't very spicy, and they gave the whole sandwich a crispy texture and sweet aftertaste that was perfect.

    Chili dog, onion rings and fries

    Pretty good chili dogs! Great fries and onion rings. Friendly folks and a clean restaurant with an island vibe. They have a large selection of dogs and fresh chicken that I will have to return to sample.

    Surf Dawgs Grill in Surfside Beach, SC! Best burgers in town and come hungry because they are huge! Dreaming about the Aruba Burger and chocolate milkshake ! Began as a New York style hot dog cart which became a food truck and is now a storefront location in Surfside!

    First impressions...small, but cool atmosphere. Lots of options for both dogs and burgers...plenty of other choices as well. Everything is customizable. The guy at the counter was extremely helpful. He took the time to explain everything to us. The store is very clean. Food came quickly and it didn't disappoint. Delicious. Loved the dogs and the fries. Definitely someplace to keep in the return visit list.

    The popper Dawg, soul Dawg and Carolina Dawg!!

    If your looking for a perfect Dawg, no other place in the area can touch this place. Service was great and ambiance matches the location. Best three Dawgs I had on any vacation!!!

    This place has a really great beach vibe and decor. The owner and customer service were top notch. He loved explaining how everything is homemade, dressings, sauces, etc. All food is made fresh. The place was very clean and the food was delicious. One of the best smash burgers I've had. My husband raved about the chili in a bread bowl. The only thing that would keep me from going back constantly or a five star, is the prices. Definitely worth going as a treat.

    A burger and fries with a drink was over 20$. It smelled good though. The owner seems like a nice man but should consider lowering prices.

Even though we live in Conway, we're always up for the drive when something promises that classic, no-frills, comfort food experience. From the outside, the place has that slightly worn, local-legend vibe--and if you know, you know: that's usually where the best food hides. Sure enough, the menu didn't disappoint. Helen lit up when she spotted a bologna burger (a rare find!), pairing it with onion rings, while I went straight for their famous cheeseburger with fries, loaded up with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and sautéed onions. The presentation was charmingly simple--everything served on individual paper plates, giving it that laid-back, beachy feel. No fuss, no frills--just good food and good vibes. Helen was absolutely in heaven with her meal, and while my burger had fantastic flavor, the toppings were a bit underwhelming--light on the veggies and missing those sautéed onions I was looking forward to. Still, the core of the burger was solid enough to keep me interested. We're already planning a follow-up visit to their Myrtle Beach location in a few weeks--round two is coming, and this time I won't forget to snap some photos. If you're chasing that authentic, old-school burger joint experience, this spot is definitely worth the trip.

AMBIANCE = 3 Going up the main stairs to be seated. They set it up that people can do graffiti on the walls. Feels like one is walking in a subway that has been abandoned or factory. Offer shelled peanuts which can be thrown on the floor. Working to create a dive environment. There is inside and outside seating. We choose to sit in the none sunny area outside. There is a set of stairs that come up off the beach as well. 2. FOOD/DRIINKS = 3 Had new England style clam chowder. Ok. High salt content. Burgers were good though messy. Had a local IPA was good. Food came hot and in time. 3. SERVICE = 4 I give a 4 because from the person who seated us was upbeat and accommodated our request for seating. The waitress was aware but not overbearing. 4. BATHROOM = NA did not use. There is one located in parking lot area. 5. PRICING = 3 What you would expect. Burger. Tea. Beer. Soup came out $40 tax is 10%. 6. OBSERVATION My overall impression was good though this is the low time of the season and it was mid afternoon. I would probably try some of the other places that are in the general area of the pier. The view from outside seating ok. But nothing about it gives the wow effect. I would probably try this place again. 7. POINTS 13 out 25 points. 20 to 25 = Exceeds expectations. NO 10 to 19 = Meets expectations. YES. 0 to 9 = Does not meet expections. NO

The only challenge sometimes is that it can be hard to get in on busy nights--which really tells you how popular the place is. On our most recent visit, we were pleasantly surprised to see that they had updated the seating in the booths. They remodeled them and added new chairs and tables, making them much more comfortable. The restaurant still has the same classic feel it's always had, but everything looks fresh with new flooring and updated seating. Another nice improvement is that they moved their trivia game to the back part of the restaurant. That has really opened up the main dining and bar area so patrons can enjoy their meals and a few cold beers without the crowding that used to happen during trivia nights. Their menu remains mostly the same, which is a good thing. It's somewhat limited, but everything on it is very good. Every time I go, I order the "Cheeseburger in Paradise." They offer several different burgers by name, and they cook them exactly the way you like--rare, medium rare, medium, or well done. You can also choose fresh-cut home fries or their house-made potato chips, which are excellent. Another thing we've noticed over the years is the consistency of the wait staff. When you go in a few times, you start seeing the same ladies working there, and they really hustle and do a great job taking care of everyone. It's just a great place with a wonderful atmosphere. It's become one of my go-to spots for dinner, and I often take my wife and my mom. My mom is 86 years old and absolutely loves it too. We've never had a bad experience there.
