    Bimini’s came highly recommended by several people while visiting Myrtle Beach. It was definitely worth the trip. Everything was good. Drinks, oysters, steam shrimp, and the surf and turf with scallops. I would definitely return. It’s a nice hole in the wall that I would probably pass by if not suggested as the best oyster place in town. But, from the full house during our visit it’s a local favorite!

    I absolutely love this place. I’ve come here many times; it’s a MUST for when I’m in the area. The fried oyster platter is one of my favorite meals ever in life. It is absolutely perfect and I wouldn’t change anything about it. I always get it with the homemade chips. Come here!!!

    Fun atmosphere and lively crowd. We ate at the bar and our server was friendly and attentive. Had the raw oysters and they were very fresh and icy cold. We shared the large steamer pot and it was quite a bit of food! Crab legs were sweet and succulent, mussels were large and perfectly steamed. We were advised to get there early and we were lucky to find seats at the bar, so we were able to avoid a 30 minute wait for a table.

    Love this place. It was recommended to us by locals several years ago. The seafood is as fresh as you can find and is plentiful. Service is always great, and it has a laid-back atmosphere to it. During the week, and early evening is the best time to go if you don't want to wait for a table as the place fills up quickly. Even at its busiest, the service is excellent

    Family friendly, but also fun for other groups. The Lobster Bisque was fabulous. The sauteed sea scallops was a HEALTHY serving of scallops and was excellent, nice and buttery, not rubbery. The slaw was good too.

    What can I say, everything was great! Oysters, shrimp, ahi tuna, PO boys were outstanding, nothing we didn't enjoy. That includes our server Chad who was great as well. Did I mention the happy hour prices on items and drinks? Also great, we will be back.

    Wanted to get some raw oysters and found Bimini’s on Google. The oysters were fresh and came right out. I also ordered the calabash shrimp/fried oyster combo which was fantastic. My wife got New England Clam Chowder and another dozen of raw oysters.

    Great fresh seafood at reasonable prices. The hush puppies were delicious too. The only downside was the volume of the music and chatter which made conversation impossible without shouting. Service was great too!

    Bimini's Restaurant was recommended by the locals. Wow, they were right. Our server Ryan did a great job. The food was superb, with no leftovers. The atmosphere was laid back & beachy. We've been coming to Myrtle Beach for 41 years. Bimini's will now be a yearly visit!

    Went here during happy hour. Good food, good drinks, good prices. The service was also attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was fun. Lots of murals and fun things on the wall. Patrons all seemed to be tourists, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. We had a really good time. We enjoyed the grilled shrimp, bang bang/ firecracker shrimp, fried oysters, and drinks. Was really a good time. We look forward to going there during our next visit to Myrtle Beach

    There was a bit of a wait but it was worth it. It was very noisy so it was hard to talk to the waitress and each other but that's because it's a favorite. The food was great. My son absolutely loved the huge crab legs and I absolutely loved the huge shrimp! A must stop if you're in Myrtle Beach!

    THE BEST SEAFOOD SO FAR! They have a drink called an Oyster Shotter; self explanatory but great to wet your appetite for the future feast. Everything was excellent. Came Friday busy but got seated insde right away.

    When we we go to Myrtle Beach, this is a always a place we make sure we go to eat. Their hush puppies and honey butter are delicious. We have had their oyster roast (soo good), mahi bites, sandwiches, and cocktails. So far it has all been great. The wait staff hustles the entire time. The kids enjoyed playing the little table hook game and getting their pictures taken outside. We would highly recommend this place.

    Such a fun and laid back atmosphere for good food and drinks! Came here based on reviews and they did not disappoint. The oysters were amazing and had the best oyster shooter ever. Thanks to our waiter Scott for an amazing service. We will definitely return.

    Service was 💯, you can tell the staff enjoy their work and are great at it. The oysters on the half shell were large, tasted good and were on the table in less than 3 minutes. The shrimp, crablegs, tacos and kids menu was also enjoyable. You have to try the hushpuppies! It fills up fast, so make sure you arrive early (4:30) for parking and outdoor seating, earlier for inside.

    First time visiting this restaurant and the seafood was good!! It was busy for a weekday and a bit loud inside. The frozen Piña colada was delicious. Our waiter was helpful and polite. Overall we had a good experience there.

  • 5/5 Larry H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great bar and restaurant that specializes in fresh seafood. If it cones from the sea they have it and they do a great job. The foods delicious. It has a wonderful atmosphere that definitely makes you feel like you're at the beach. A pleasant, attentive staff adds to the experience. The parking is limited out front so it always looks crowded but never fear, there's parking in back too and its bigger than it looks inside. A must stop if you're in the area.

  • 5/5 Ray F. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent service. Locals love it. Had to wait in line to get in, but we'll worth it. Seafood was fresh and the steak we also ordered was perfect! Parking lot can be tight but we were lucky and found one right away.

    Great local seafood restaurant with a casual atmosphere and reasonable prices. Lots of variety to choose from, including fried, grilled and steamed seafood items. Steam pots are amazing and hushpppies are super tasty. Fish, shrimp and oysters were fresh and cooked perfectly. Definitely a great choice for seafood!

    Food was excellent. Got fried oysters and shrimp. Well seasoned and hot. Service was quick despite restaurant being super crowded. Food was worth the wait. Solid stop if in myrtle/north Myrtle beach!

    This place is busy and I need to wait in queue even got there at 5pm. The hush puppies are the plain type, and a bit over fried. The new england clam chowder is weird and not even white. The seafood is fresh, but portion is small considered for the price. The oysters and clams are very tiny.

  • 2/5 Graviela I. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is average. Some of the food comes out in plastic baskets others in regular plates but you still have to eat using plastic silverware. The drinks are also served on plastic cups. The staff was nice and friendly. I thought this would be a nice relaxing seafood restaurant. Extremely noisy inside. The seating is plastic chairs and tables, picnic tables & high tables.

    I went for dinner on a Saturday, and it was about a 30-minute wait. The food was fresh and delicious. I had raw oysters as the appetizer. My main dish was from the favorites list; the crab cake and scallops with rice and vegetables. Everything tasted homemade. The service was great. However, the bathrooms do not have baby changing stations, and it makes it difficult for parents. This is a negative point for me.

  • 4/5 Tripp P. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here at 6 pm one day ahead of an environmental conference, as it was one of the top reviewed seafood restaurants in Myrtle Beach. The place was packed. Seats inside were completely filled up, and outside seating was almost full as well. However, we were seated in less than 15 mins and served food in less than 15 minutes as well. Ordered the fried flounder platter, and it was excellent. While the fry batter could have been more seasoned and the rice that I got with the flounder more flavorful, overall the meal was excellent. The hush puppies were great (though I wish my server had provided butter), the flounder was very tasty and was a really big piece of fish (well worth the $20 price tag), and the coleslaw was the real showstopper - it was incredible. I highly recommend it. The only con was that our server wasn't very attentive and the outdoor seating was just alright. Overall, a very good restaurant with very good value for money seafood in Myrtle Beach. Highly recommend coming here early and getting a seat inside.

    This was our first sit down meal on our family vacation, and we chose Bimini’s because they were a top recommendation. The first thing that hit us was the delicious smells emanating from the front doors, followed by an authentic, warm greeting from the front staff. Our server took such good care of us. Our first bites were of their hush puppies, which had a perfectly crisped outside and a warm, soft interior. Dipping them in honey butter was phenomenal. I have a soft spot for fried fish, and their homemade sauce left me feeling guiltless in gorging on this delicacy (sided with freshly steamed veggies, yum). Our whole family enjoyed the experience and give full thumbs up.

    Great service, drinks were delicious... perfect vacation vibes. The food was fabulous! From the huge raw oysters to the fried calabash shrimp and conch fritters, everything was super yummy! Took a picture of the peanut butter pie. It was so yummy, half of it was gone by the time I could take a picture. Will be coming back next time in town.

  • 5/5 Nate C. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good food friendly staff. We waited about 40-45 minutes to get our food but it was so worth the wait and the place was packed so it was understandable. Well worth the wait! Also who painted the walls? Amazing.
