Although many people might be skeptical, Myrtle Beach’s Grand Strand is not only famous for its picturesque scenery, but also for its fresh seafood. The latter is available in numerous restaurants, and each one is in a class by itself. Below are the top choices on the Grand Strand for farm-to-table seafare:

The Wicked Tuna

Directly on the celebrated MarshWalk in Murrells Inlet, The Wicked Tuna is a terrific place for hook-to-plate seafood, as well as breathtaking views of the marshes. The chefs at Wicked Tuna create signature dishes from locally caught, fresh fish, such as king mackerel, snapper, large sea bass, grouper, black sea bass, and wahoo, all of which are served by an impeccably trained staff. Any dish can be paired with the patron’s choice of wine from the establishment’s exclusive wine and sake list. Landlubbers will also not be disappointed, as the menu features top choice steaks and other American favorites as well. Timeless natural beauty, a great atmosphere and delicious cuisine are all found at this one-of-a-kind restaurant.
