Reviews for Sharkey's Oceanfront Restaurant in Myrtle Beach, SC
I know that some of this review is not the fault of Sharkey's. But, when from the city and the establishment start to nickel &... dime consumers. it adds up. Hopefully owners will take this to the city council to help change things. we were already a bitdisappointed with having to pay to park (but we get its tourist season, what happened to locals parking permits??); as a localmilitary veteran that grew up here in the restaurant industry before joining the military, i know that wait stuff should beknowledgable about whats "86'd" and what is in stock. we ordered one of the appetizers as an entree & did not find out it wassold out until almost 20 mins after ordering our entrees;the filet mignon on the menu states it is served with a red wine demiglazed sauce, yet it came out with what looked and tasted like a mushroom sauce, which i usually avoid mushrooms. Perhapsadding that little nugget of info to the menus would help consumers in their decision process, i will say the steak was cookedproperly and very good otherwise once i removed the mushrooms. The drinks were great, along as the view. The atmosphere wasgood. We have lived in MB a good 20 years & came home to visit & just thrown off by the cost of every little thing. Read more
Honestly, not great. The food is very expensive for the portions they offer and the drinks are fairly weak. The place in... general need a fix up, the tables were sticky and the staff isn't all that presentable. Our waitress was an exception, who waspleasant and presentable. We liked her. The fella busing tables was very nice too. The food was a mix of satisfying andunsatisfying. I ordered the blackened fish dinner with a side salad. The fish itself was delicious, but the potatoes wereextremely salty to the point we couldn't finish them. The side salad was pretty pathetic. Some lettuce, a handful of shreddedcheese and two grape tomatoes... Lastly, when the bill came we were surprised to see an 18% gratuity for just the two of us. We customarily give 20% in tip when we dine out and understand the mandatory gratuity for large parties, but seeing it forced onyou puts a bad taste in your mouth... And less cash tips in your waitress' pocket. Overall this place feels rundown and maybeon it's last leg. It seems like a place that use to have character, bands, dancing and and overall fun atmosphere. Find a wayto bring that back. Read more
Picked this place for the view & a cash back deal on upside. First thing is the tacos were good. Not my issue. My husbands... lobster roll he liked but felt it was small for the price. Think they should consider larger portions maybe more fries, thirdtaco etc. we hesitated to order an appetizer & didn?t bc of the automatic 18 % gratuity even for 2 ppl. It was almost $60 for 2drinks, & one lobster roll & tacos. We left hungry. Prices, rent etc going up everywhere but still want value for your money. Noautomatic tipping on small parties anywhere else we?ve been. We won?t be back sorry to say. Read more
Me and my spouse accidentally pick this place. Service was good not many people but okay. Our food was hot and good. The... calamari was rubbery but other than that good place. Prices could be lesser. Read more

Love this place ! You can?t go wrong with such a clutch location being right on the beach with killer views and even better... drinks! Jamie the bar manager / head bartender is the best and makes the best drinks on the strip! Everyone?s always friendlyand very rarely is there a wait to get in. Parking is convenient which can be difficult to find in downtown Myrtle. Just gocheck them Out! Read more
We ate at Sharkeys 3 times during our stay in Myrtle Beach. Was perfect all 3 times. Service is fast and the staff was awesome.... Fish and chips amazing. Gummy bear mixed drink yum. My husband even got me a t shirt ???? Read more
The food was delicious and the service was spot on. We were cared for and had the necessary check-in when we needed something.... Obviously from other reviews this is not some place you go to everyday for a meal, but I would recommend this to anyone totry. As other posts have started there is an 18% automatic gratuity and a 4% charge for credit/debit transactions. All this wasposted and there was no surprise, so do your own math. Again we enjoyed our experience and would recommend giving them a try. Read more
