Side note... we got to watch some drunk guy get arrested across the street while we were there..... literally dinner theatre read more

Bartender 1 was our server. We went during lunch on a Monday. Service was good, he was attentive and delivered our orders perfectly. My wife got the grouper bites and hush puppies appetizers. I ordered two sushi rolls the PJ Salmon and the salmon roll. Parking is limited next to the restaurant so it will probably fill up fast during the weekend dinner time. The grouper bites were hot out of the fryer. My said that they were good but, a little too much breading. The hush puppies were also good. The PJ salmon roll looked fresh and had seaweed wrapped around the roll. I liked it better than the other salmon roll wrapped just in white rice. Ambience is definitely beach like. read more

First of all we sat at the bar and the bartender was great! Made a perfect margarita. I ordered the Flounder platter and it was tender and flakey and delish. Came with fries and slaw. My friend ordered the beef tips. They were done perfectly and were tender and juicy. The place is beachy and laid back. We will be back for sure. read more

I love this place. This is my favorite place on the N Myrtle Beach ocean front. It has the best beach vibes. The service is always very good. And their happy hour menu is the bomb. My husband and I went there for happy hour every day for a week. They make the best adult drinks, all of their food is delicious - everything from the seafood, do the burgers, to the salad, to the sushi. read more

Yummy! My daughter and I arrived around noon and were able to sit at the sushi counter. I got crab cakes with fries, and a grilled cheese for my baby. The crab cake was very good, hardly any fillers! & a simple thing, but these style fries are some of my favorite! My daughter enjoyed her grilled cheese and it even came with some Oreos. Service wasn't super fast (got my margarita at the same time as my food), but it was good nonetheless! There is outside seating as well as inside. Not sure if we would come back with the whole family, because the space felt cramped. Highly recommend the crab cakes though! read more

Man, I really wanted to love this place. It has such potential, but unfortunately must be a hit or miss. I visited because of a recommendation from host when I was in town at the beginning of the month. Pros: There is a lot out outside and inside sitting. During your estimated wait time for your table there is a large jenga set and connect four that makes the time entertaining. If you come right before 5, you'll be able to snag free public parking, If not, you'll have to pay. Live music with good cover songs. Cons: We waited over 30 minutes for our food after being sat. (Which wouldn't be a problem if the food was worth it) I ordered the simply shrimp platter, the coastal combo, kid popcorn shrimp, California sushi roll, and salmon sushi roll. When they brought our food to the table, they forgot the sushi. This was someone's complete meal at the table. Our guest sat with no food and after no waitress attending our table. I had to get up and request her. She said she would check on it. After about 8 minutes I walked inside to inquire what was going on. At this point our table had been sitting with their food for about 15 mins. The coastal combo was cold. You could tell the blackened plate had been sitting out before we received it. They did not eat it. Finally our waitress said that unfortunately there was a long wait and many orders ahead of us due to why the sushi did not arrive. I asked to speak to manager and a guy named Maddox spoke to us. He apologized and said that they did not make the sushi and this restaurant and hired a third company party to do so?!? He explained that there was only one staff member from that company there that day and that is why we did not receive it. It's been 40 mins at this point and still no sushi. I explained that the coastal combo was cold and we did not want to replace it. Maddox brought the sushi out finally with a little bit of salmon in it. Nothing else. Was rude when I said it didn't compensate for the issues. We ended up having the sushi took off, however our guest still paid for the cold combo! He refused to remove it even with it not being ate, because it sat on our table that long due to them. The fried shrimp was the only item worth consuming. I was shocked ..... read more

Great beach vibe! We wanted to eat inside but had to wait just a bit as it was busy. We didn't have to wait very long. There were games outside for kids to play while we waited. Parking was good! Food was delicious! A good kids' menu as well! read more

We really enjoyed the fun, beach vibe in this place. We start led our meal by sharing the grouper bites and crab balls with the group. They were both quite good! For my entrée, I had the blackened grumpy grouper. The flavor was excellent and I loved that it also included a few hush puppies with the delectable cinnamon and brown sugar butter. read more

Arrived at 11:20 am, ordered two of the seafood platter and a cheeseburger. Seafood was excellent as always. Grandkids loved the cheeseburgers. Waitress was very good and attentive. Ambiance is beachy not over done. Not a fancy place but the food is solid and delicious. read more

We ended up sitting on the patio which we regretted. The food was good and our server was very attentive, but the flies were insane. There was also a live band, which could have been good if they adjusted their volume to match the space they were in. It was beyond loud for an area this small. The wait for food was pretty long, but the server had good communication about it. read more

This was our 1st time here on the recommendation of a condo owner. Wait time was 35-45 minutes which wasn't bad. After food was ordered we waited an hour. Nachos and meals came at the same time. Service was very slow. The food was a 2/3 at best. We had the coastal combo, coconut shrimp, crab legs, beach boil,and 2 burgers. We would not return. Maybe it was an off night? read more

Love the food love the service love the happy hour. Always a great time. We stopped here every time we're at North Myrtle Beach.

Really cool spot with great happy hour specials. I'd say the peel and eat shrimp and 85 cent happy hour oysters were definitely the highlights. My recommendation here would be to probably stick to the seafood offerings. I wasn't a big fan of the pork sliders or wings. Aside from the food, service and ambiance were both exceptional. Buoys On The Boulevard is definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. Go ahead and give this place a try! read more

First time here, they were immediately upset that we did not check in at the host stand. That was our fault, we did not see the sign and we immediately apologized for it, but right after we got sat, they refused to serve us. There was maybe 10 people in the entire place, so not busy. They also fully served another table that came in after us before they even provided us with waters. The level of rudeness is outstanding. We decided to leave after waiting for over 20 minutes, but first told a manager about it and their response was only "sorry." read more

Tried this place from a local recommendation and it was everything a seafood loving, landlocked girl like me needed. The crab balls were juicy and delicious. Wasn't really a fan of the cinnamon whip for the hush puppies but that's why it's on the side Also had seafood trio; blackened shrimp, fish &fried oysters . . . Even the coleslaw was good! Server was super attentive and she had a lot of large tables to wait on. If you're in NMB, definitely go to Bouy's! read more

My rating is really a 3.5. Been wanting to try this place for a while. We started with Calimari and a dozen steamed oysters. The oysters were $.85 for Happy Hour. The calamari was perfectly fried. My oysters were over steamed, for my preference, but still tasty. It took a long time to get our food, but finally the manager let us know there were new cooks in the kitchen. The food was very good. The restaurant is located oceanfront and has lots of neat beachy touches. read more

Third time we have dined here. Relaxed and very cool beach vibe! Great food and friendly fast service! I had the shrimp po-boy! This place does not skimp on the shrimp either!! read more

We finally tried Boiys on the Boulevard last night. We initially talked about paying for the drinks and goig elsewhere since nothing was standing out on the menu but we stayed. My husband had the flounder platter, which he said was good, and I made the mistake of ordering the shrimp po' boy. That sandwich was stupid big and impossible to eat as a sandwich. They could have put half of the shrimp on that roll and it might have been enjoyable, but with so many shrimp there was no way to pick it up to eat. I ended up picking shrimp off of the bread to eat and leaving the roll and trimmings. That was not enjoyable. We probably won't be going back. read more

Never disappoints this place. Nice place to grab a bite. Dive bar with excellent bartenders. You won't be disappointed.

Even on a Monday it was super busy...It sits across from some carnival rides which definitely gives it the cheezey Daytona Beach feel. The menu offers a decent variety of options with more seafood items. The Grouper Salad for less than $15.00 is a great option as there was a generous amount of perfectly cooked Grouper. I got the Bouy Roll with Smoked Marinated Salmon, Crab and Avocado. Both dishes were amazing and our server was great. Not pushy and very attentive and efficient . Prices are fair and location is perfect read more

Excellent service! Ronald, the bartender, was covering the whole place and was everywhere all at once keeping everyone happy. I had seafood chowder, my husband got the grouper sandwich, and our son chose the fried shrimp platter, all good. Special tip to the great fries and cole slaw. My husband also really liked his margarita. A dive type place in two meanings of the word, a diver figure was hanging from the ceiling and it was also a really laidback slightly grunge type atmosphere in the best sense of the term. read more

Good quality. Large portion sizes. Our waiter was very good. The burgers were really good but the nachos a little stale/cold or we would have given an extra star. read more

WOOOOWWWW. That's all I can say about the quesadilla! It was a tough decision because so many things on the menu were enticing. I can say confidently I made the right choice. I got the Mahi Mahi quesadilla and it was easily the best quesadilla I've ever had in my life. My husband ate the leftovers cold the next day and still agreed that it was the best he ever had too. The hush puppies were to die for, and especially with the cinnamon butter!! Don't miss out. We were seated outside and our waitress was great. Very attentive and everything came out pretty quickly. Our experience was a little bit ruined by the crowd of obnoxious drunk men taking up the three tables across from us. They screamed the entire time so we couldn't speak to each other. But the food was good enough that it was worth it anyway. The Azul lemonade was delicious! A bit expensive overall, but so is everything at Myrtle Beach. We already can't wait to come back because there's so many other things we wanted to order! read more

Nice little whole in the wall type restaurant but a great local spot. Live music, indoor and outdoor dining, cornhole and jenga to play while you wait for your table. Went with a fairly large group so it was some time before we got seated comfortably. They have a great extension of a menu of food and drinks. I finally decided on the crabby Weldon. I normally don't do fried crab cakes but it was actually good. Crab cake wasn't too heavy or overly breaded. Just the right size to add onto the burger. The special sauce they make adds that extra flavor to the burger to enjoy it even more. Fries were perfectly crispy. Didn't even need any dipping sauce. That's how good they were to me. Be careful with parking as it's not that much parking in the lot behind the restaurant and no street parking. read more

Came here tonight with my sister. We had the trio app (fried okra, fried grouper bites, and shaggin shrimp), spicy tuna roll, and the beach boil (shrimp, crab legs, corn, potatoes, and sausage). The sushi roll was fine, rice a bit chewy. Everything else was fantastic! Sat at the bar and our bartender Jess was great, very attentive. Missed happy hour but even so the prices were still great for the amount of food you get. Even better options and great pricing for happy hour. Will definitely be back! read more

Buoys has been on my list of places to try for a while now and finally got a chance to check them out and boy am I glad I was able to finally check it out with my parents who are visiting from out of town. They are the perfect place for locals...a little bit hole in the wall, a little bit divey and a whole lot of deliciousness. They have a wide variety of items on their menu and is one of those places that everyone can find something. I ordered the Crabby Weldon cooked medium and it was one of the best burgers I have had in a really long time. The crab cake is not heavily breaded like most places tend to prepare them and the remoulade is very subtle but very flavorful. The fries are probably the best fries I have ever had in a restaurant and that says a lot. To me, you know a fry is good when you don't need to use ketchup or any other dipping sauce. I would go there just to order fries they are that good. lol My mom ordered the grilled Mahi Mahi salad and said that the mahi mahi was cooked perfectly. The seasoning that the use when grilling was not overpowering which allowed the natural flavor of the mahi mahi stand out. She also ordered the chili and when asking if it was spicy, our server Sue stated that it wasn't but brought a sample of it out to my mom to make sure that it would be okay for her. This is a level of customer service that you don't find very often anymore and is a true testament to why they have been voted best bar/restaurant. My dad ordered the Grumpy Grouper (grilled) and he thought it was some of the best grouper he has ever had. Like the mahi, the seasoning was not overpowering. Parking is a little tricky to figure out if you haven't been there before, but a quick call to inquire about it, we knew it was okay to park behind the restaurant despite the $10 signs as it is the off season but was also told that parking is to the right of the building if looking at it from the street. As others have mentioned, this is an older establishment so indoor seating can be limited. They have tables that will accommodate larger groups and they have seating options outside. This will definitely be a place that we will become regulars at and will be a place that we bring out of town guests too. We may or may not go back tonight. lol read more

Stop in on a slow off-season night with a two year-old. Staff did a good job of keeping her occupied and the food was solid. My wife really enjoyed the raw oysters, which were a pretty good value. Good beer selection as well. Would be better during season where you get more of the beach feel. read more

It was okay. The prices were pretty high considering it was the off season. I ordered the chicken tenders, and it said they came with fries and hush puppies but there were maybe 3 in the meal. The service was fine, it's just a normal family restaurant type of place. Great decorations though. read more
