Best Restaurants in Myrtle Beach

Myrtle Beach’s food identity is Calabash-style seafood — lightly breaded, fried golden, and served in portions that dare you to finish. But the Grand Strand dining scene goes well beyond the all-you-can-eat seafood buffets on Restaurant Row.

Calabash & Seafood

The Original Benjamin’s (North Myrtle Beach) — The biggest Calabash-style seafood buffet on the Grand Strand. 170+ items across multiple stations. Crab legs, fried shrimp, oysters, and a dessert section that’s its own meal. The building is enormous and themed with a pirate ship.
