Food, Atmosphere...a place not to be missed! Local seafood & great service make this place a local favorite that visitors flock to. The steam pot is to die for. Free oysters at afternoon roast on Sundays during oyster season.

This place is fantastic. I had the seafood boil and shared it with my daughter. Great value for that amount of seafood. My wife and 6yr old daughter had the hamburgers. My 6 yr old never finishes her supper but this time the plate was clean. My 11 yr old had the kids pasta and it was more than enough... More

We went here every night of our stay. They have a wonderful steam-pot and their raw oysters were out of this world. The servers were super friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed everything about this place and bought the t-shirts to prove it!

Well, many see Jimmy Buffety/Beachy theme. I just see cheap and tacky. Definitely needs an upgrade in decor and service. $23.99 for a pound of crab legs is way too much. Drinks were expensive. Coming from Maryland, I still haven't found a good shrimp salad sandwich....and this place is no exception....shrimp from a can, no mayo......don't insult me, please. Not... More

Yes, the parking lot is small and packed, and the place looks like a left-over in a semi-abandoned strip mall, but the seafood is outstanding and the atmosphere is excellent if you like that kind of redneck, paper towel, plastic chair ambiance. It's very much like a lot of seafood joints where you get to eat great seafood over newspaper,... More

It doesn't look like much from the outside but it open up when you walk through the door, I loved the atmosphere and the staff is fantastic. Yeah this is pretty much a must when I'm in Myrtle they have a great pot of seafood here which I would recommend, with a couple Yuengling's and bang your on a Highway... More

Nice little restaurant and a favorite of the locals. Average price and good quality. By far not a fancy restaurant, but you need to get there early. Good seafood and burgers and fries. A real varied menu and it is all good. $.30 raw oysters and they also steam them. Great quaint place to eat!!

Once you see this little place you might think, well this isn't what I thought but just wait to see how good the food is! Their calabash shrimp is cooked perfectly. Hush puppies are awesome. My hubby loved the oysters. Yes, the atmosphere is loud but its fun! It's not a stuffy type of restaurant. The service could be better... More

I thought the food was very good (hushpuppies, monterey jack shrimp and steamed shrimp) but the service was horrible. We went at lunch time and it was not super busy. We had to chase our waitress down to get drink refills more than once and she came by at one point and said our food would be right out. About... More

Been in myrtle beach for a week of golf and food. We were told that the seafood at bimineys was the best. Food was in fact very good, but the place is loud and has the feel of a cafeteria. Service was good and overall we were satisfied. Would probably return. Just keep in mind this is not a fine... More
