We have been here several times over the years, but this trip was very disappointing. She crab soup was very salty and way too thick. Lobster pot pie looked good and the crust was tasty but there was not much seafood underneath. Fish was just ok; sauted vegetables were not - it was more like steamed for just a few... More

This restaurant has been around for a long time. The building is old, but the food is great. Never had a bad meal. Good service too.

Don't get me wrong, we love the majority of restaurants along the Marsh Walk area. For some reason we hadn't tried the Hot Fish Club prior to this visit. What a find! It was so great to see menu choices beyond crab cakes, shrim, oysters and scallops. Our server was Dana, who was awesome. We ordered the Bam Bam Shrimp... More

So nice to find something diferent from the usual Myrtle Beach eating experience. The seafood choices were different from the norm and prepared so tastefully! We enjoyed it so much we returned the next night before returning home. Highly recomend the lobster pie....YUM. My grandaughter suggested we make it our Myrtle Beach tradition. Worth the ride to Murrells Inlet.

I used to like Hot Fish Club a lot, but they have recently changed owners and management, and the new regime is not nearly as good as the previous. Among the disappointments have been changes to the menu with several previous favorites gone. And the service has taken a turn for the worse as well, I'm afraid. It will be... More

We sat on the back patio and the view was serene, to start with. We had the blue crab dip to start and it was great! Then came the shrimp and grits .... it melted in your mouth and they were most awesome! Being from the south, this is a favorite dish of mine and this was, by far, the... More

Food was very good, took an hour and a half to get food. Normally would not have been a problem but my Mother in law is diabetic and the time constraint became a real problem. Have been here several times, not sure if we will be back

AT here on recommendation of the waiter at Croissants in Myrtle Beach....she is a foodie from way back so I trusted her opinion and am GLAD I Did! This place was awesome! Chilean Sea Bass was so moist and tender....it had Portabello Mushroom Grits with Sauteed Spinach in a cream sauce. My friend had the Mahi Mahi with Ginger Glaze...also... More

I am a long time local, my wife and I live in Murrells Inlet and go to just about every place down here several times a year. I have not been to Hot Fish in about 3 years because of multiple bad experiences but recently friends invited us and assured me there were new owners. Skeptical, I went anyway, and... More
