Mr. Fish Seafood Market — Restaurant in Myrtle Beach

Keep in mind when reading reviews of places that are in tourist towns the staff changes that happen and volume of business. A family member asked some construction workers where the locals eat and he said this place. Our large party ordered oysters steamed and fried, 2 lbs crab legs with 2 sides, chicken tenders for a kid, baked potatoes and a salad. Everything was fantastic. We were shocked at the amount and quality of the crab leg for $40 (special). They were good size and cooked well. Chicken tenders appeared to be hand battered in house and were really good. Most places just have the frozen in a bag kind. Waiter was fantastic and food was correct when it came out of the kitchen which is a huge deal for a larger party of people. At the same time as we were having a great experience the people beside of us were giving the waitress a hard time (my teenage daughter who even has an attitude said she felt sorry for the waitress) and sent food back a couple times while loudly voicing opinions that no one else dining cared about. Some people are just hard to please and are going to leave a bad review. All in all I will for sure eat here again. We walked right in and were seated quickly, food was hot and fresh, everything was clean and the staff were great. Is this a white table cloth sit down fancy restaurant? Nope. But for a Tuesday night birthday dinner with kids who wanted to snap some crab legs and have a good time this is the spot. And as for the rude customers beside us, may you see this post and reconsider how you treat others who choose to serve others for work. Kindness...

Nope. I don't know what the person was thinking who recommended this place, but every single thing we ordered was gross. Especially for being right next to the ocean, this was not impressive at all. We were expecting fresh seafood. Not at all.

We are clam chowder fanatics, and this place doesn't have good clam chowder. Sorry.

The stuff mushroom was just a large mushroom with spinach on top and a really weird wine vinegar sauce on top. Not good.

The side salad uses a spring mix lettuce. Had I known this, I wouldn't have ordered it. Menus need photos!

The seafood alfredo tasted ok, just normal. Definitely not $20 worth.

Fried green tomatoes sauce tasted weird, but with ranch it was better. Then again, add ranch to anything and it's better.

The California roll was bad. Looked prepackaged and shipped (even though I know it wasn't). We get sushi everywhere we travel, this place wasn't good.

The crab legs tasted like regular crab legs. I could have closed my eyes and though I picked them up from a land locked state. I was expecting better being on the coast.

Boom boom fish tacos were rated as 9/10. So I guess this was the best item we got in our group.

Burger, we didn't even finish it.

Mac and cheese, cheese tasted weird.

The complementary hush puppies were amazing though. Good job on that!

Aside from the hush puppies and the tacos, no one...

We tried this place for dinner, based upon other reviews and hoping that a fish market would have the freshest seafood. We ordered the $50 seafood steam pot, which was huge. Unfortunately, the snow crab legs were so salty and dry, they were inedible. We brought this to the attention of the staff, and the waitress took them back into the kitchen and washed them off, then brought them back. It didn't help. The shrimp was good but the rest was uneventful. We offered the crab legs to a local patron who was delighted to accept them, but when he tasted them he agreed they were inedible and we both brought the matter to the manager. He couldn't give a damn and acted as though it was our tastebuds that was the issue. The other patron let us try his crab legs and they were sweet and moist like they should be. My wife submitted her own review and did get a response stating that they take negative reviews seriously, and I am sure they do. The trouble is, they don't take complaints very seriously when made at the time of the dining experience, and that, more than anything is why I give you a 1 star review. If you made things right, I might have given you a 4 or 5 star rating. Next time a customer has a legitimate complaint about the food, remember that the problem doesn't go away when they walk...
