We were pleasantly surprised! The food was really good and the service was great. The portions were good and prices very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

This was my absolute worst dinner experience ever-not just on vacation but EVER in my 37 years!!!If you want to spare the time to read this very long review-I'd say, in a nutshell, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME-DO NOT EAT HERE. There are plenty of other restaurants around North Myrtle Beach with better food, fair prices and management that are good at what they do. We walked right in and sat outside with no wait-about 1/2 the tables were full. The waitress took a bit to come out but took our drink orders quickly-then returned 5+minutes later. We were ready to order and did so (one sushi, 2 Kids burgers, 1 Kids chicken tenders and 4 apps-very simple requests). We waited 1+ hours for the food to appear. We inquired twice-they brought out the sushi first (45 min after we ordered). Next we got one appetizer. 10 min later the kid orders, then finally the apps. We did ask to speak with the manager before the kids Food arrived-she came out 0 after all of the food arrived and made excuses that they were extremely busy (again we walked right in and the tables were 1/2 full) but she was sorry. We reiterated that we really were upset that it was taking so long and that the food was spaced out so strangely, she commented that the sushi usually comes out last because it's from a different kitchen, so that was not the norm (? What?)! She said she would "take something off of our check" but did comment again that they were super busy and the kitchen was backed up-I didn't want excuses! I just wanted to get my kids fed and get out of the place! We finished and the manager shows back up at our table and drops off 2 slices of chocolate cake. She promptly jetted away before I could eek out a word....This brought out fire and fury from me that every mom of a food allergy child has. You cannot and should not EVER bring baked goods to a child without asking their parents if it is ok!!! NEVER EVER!! My children's eyes promptly got large and they were thrilled with anticipation of eating delicious store-bought chocolate cake that had just been set in front of them -until I told them that they could not have this.. you have to remember that they had been at this restaurant for 1.5+ hours. They were livid! No one wants cranky, crying children at a restaurant-and definitely not after you've had an unpleasant experience. Also-if your complaint is that it took to long for the food to come out, you don't want to stay longer and eat dessert-you want to leave!! The check came, and it was incorrect. My husband took the kids to the parking lot and I asked for the manager to return. The manager was in the parking lot-and she left... meantime no one had told me this-I was waiting at the table. When I realized that she was likely not coming, I asked the waitress who was busing our table (not my waitress but from what I could tell in observation she looked as if she had been there awhile and knew what she was doing) if she could please deliver a message to the manager-because I felt the need to educate her on this issue that is very near and dear to my heart (and my children's lives) in hopes of helping another parent avoid this situation in the future. The waitress coyly said that she had never heard this complaint before and that she was sure that she was just trying to be nice and rectify the situation- ANOTHER EXCUSE!!!! OMG I was trying to educate the establishment -and said so! If I'm in her shoes and realized that my workplace had just served an allergen to a child, I would be UTTERLY APOLOGETIC !! Whose first instinct is to make excuses in that instance??? AGAIN-DO NOT EAT HERE unless you like overpriced food served by overworked/understaffed waitstaff and a manager who makes excuses instead of apologies and taking care of problems over a 2+hour period for simple food. read more

This restaurant needs a visit by an undercover boss, or maybe have one that works there who cares. The food was so-so for the price and the wait staff was horrible. Its a shame the restaurant is in a nice location with good views, but I expected better from a dining room experience. Maybe if I texted our waitress for refills, to clear plates, or bring our check I would have had a better experience. The wait staff seemed to enjoy horsing around in the back kitchen. This was my first and last time there. read more

Had a wonderful dinner tonight. Everything was great including the service from Brittany. She is one of the best servers. Brittany was attentive and made my birthday dinner great! Thanks! read more

Nice place on the inlet in front of yacht Harbor to have dinner. Live music was really a plus and the food and service were very good.

Worst place I've ever been to eat in Myrtle beach. We waited for an hour and a half for a table and when we sat down a menu was thrown at my girlfriend and were asked to leave after I expressed my concerns with the menu being thrown DO NOT EAT HERE!!!!! Not to mention our table had a disgusting film and someone sat in a fully drenched seat and who knows that it actually was. read more

Excellent Happy Hour on the water! Hubby and I shared jalapeño oysters, BBQ oysters and wings...all were fantastic! Sallie was our waitress, very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks! She was extremely attentive and friendly to all her customers. We will definitely return! read more

Had dinner here for the first time tonight on a busy Friday, and have to say it was more than I expected! A lot of waterside restaurants have a great atmosphere (which this restaurant did) and the outdoor seating was abundant, but the food was delicious! We had the pecan chicken (Huge portion!), buffalo chicken sandwich, crab sandwich and wings. The crab sandwich had the most crab meat in a sandwich I've ever had and everything exceeded our expectations. Service was great and the owner stopped by to make sure everything was up to par which is always appreciated. Will definitely be coming back again soon! read more

My new favorite place for NMB. Great food,service and value. The Filet oysters were the best ever and we come from the Chesapeake Bay where oysters rule. The Prime rib special was exactly as ordered. Great service by our waiter Shawn. There are so many good restraunts in Myrtle Beach but Filets are second to none! read more

just ok..higher priced than expected for the grade of beef received...... Nice casual waterfront atmosphere..they ran out of sushi?...very small desert menu.....service again was average.. read more

Our first time back to this restaurant in a long time. It won't be a long time before we go back. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and seated right on time with our reservation. Our waiter was very friendly and kept us informed of the progress of our order. The only thing that wasn't quite up to par was the waiter never asked us if we would like refills on our drink but that was very minor. The food was outstanding. Some of the best shrimp we have had in both the appetizer and the entree. The view from the restaurant is great over looking the marina and outdoor seating is available if desired. We will definitely be back again soon. read more

Brittany was our waitress, great service and attitude. She was knowledgeable about the menu and recommended great dishes for us. We'll be back for the good and the SERVICE! read more

Heard some good things about it, so checked it out. I ordered Oysters on the half shell, 6 for $9.00, which were just ok, served on a bed of ice, but yet were room temp, with no liquor in the shell, mostly bland. For main course, had Sushi and Sashimi for one, which also included a Cali roll. Waitress forgot about my Sapporo I ordered with it, so I needed to remind her. Sushi and Sashimi were fresh and nicely presented. Cali roll was slightly above supermarket caliber. My wife ordered the 10oz prime rib for $21. It arrived about 20 minutes after my entree, and was ice cold, clearly sat unattended the entire time. Wife sent it back, apologetic waitress sent manager over, who sent a free dessert for my wife, who enjoyed it, but ended up not eating anything else. Prime rib was removed from bill. Long story short, the 2 stars represents the overall dining experience, which due to awful service, was mostly unpleasant. Perhaps on a less busy night, service might improve somewhat, but we're in no rush to go back. read more

We had a great dinner experience at Filet's. We sat on the patio where there was a nice breeze on the waterway. The food was delicious and our server (Sellers) was outstanding! The live music was fun and not overpowering. We will definitely come back! read more

Valentines day, crowded, no reservation but seated immediately on heated deck over looking marina. open pit fire, live entertainment. Service was prompt and pleasant for a large and crowded place. We both ordered catch of the day -- trigger fish over mashed potatoes and a corn relish, salad with bread. Meal was just OK. No distinctive taste but about average for NMB. With the large selection of options available we will probably not go back during this vacation. All in all, a nice evening. read more

We were in search of unique seafood and found it. The triggerfish was excellent and of decent proportion. My son had the lobster tail stuffed with crab and shrimp off the small portions menu and was equally satisfied. The coconut shrimp appetizer was excellent but was forewarned by the waiter that it was only 4 medium sized shrimp. Now to the down side, the staff. The hostess attire cami top and jean shorts (aka jorts) was extremely casual compared to the collared shirt and pants of the wait staff. The waiter after providing waters informed us the 16 year old hostess (I'm assuming this was highlighted to express inexperience) over sat a couple large parties to his colleague and he was assisting. While it is great to advertise team effort in one area it is unprofessional to highlight the inexperience in the other. The waiter advertised he has to time the lobster tail because it comes from the sushi bar with the remaining kitchen orders. Another internal business process that needs to be addressed and not advertised. My wife ordered a snickerini when we sat down but received it after her meal was finished. My son asked for additional melted butter for the lobster tail and the waiter forgot about it and we had to remind him. The food is great, but the business processes and staff was room for significant improvement. read more

Ok, so I Yelp'd this place before we went there and saw the two "$$" signs and I figured that it was relatively affordable. I walked in and tried to get a feel for the place and after seeing the hostess wearing a tee shirt, jeans, and sneakers I figured that the price of the food was affordable and the place had a pretty laid back atmosphere. The people at the bar were wearing flannel shirts and tee shirts which was fine but again made me think reasonable price. We are seated in a nice booth with a black table cloth with glasses already on the table and a nice leather bound menu and immediately I knew this restaurant was more than I was looking for. Though the menu items technically fall in the "$$" price range, most items are in the $30 price range and many of the items on the menu we were not too familiar with. We ended up leaving because of that. I felt bad but it was just not what we were looking for or expecting. We went to Red Lobster instead which was more price in our price range. read more

The atmosphere is great in the summertime but maybe not as much in the off season. but the food and service were both terrific. The steak entrees were fabulous, and the grouper bites were a fave of everyone at our table. read more

This was our first time eating at Filet's. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was very nice . Our server Lake was great and made sure we knew just what to order. We will definitely be back next time we are in town. read more

When here last night with friends for the fish fry special. The fish was wonderful. Lightly breaded and fried just right. No heavy "fishy" taste. Our waitress, Anna, was very attentive and took care of our requests immediately. Thanks for the great service. The chocolate volcano cake was awsome. Will definitely recommend this place and go back again. read more

Off the chain best sushi in the area. Great crab cakes. Extremely satisfied and delighted with the quality. Will go out of my way to return.

Great sitting outside. We went around 8 as the sun started to set. We enjoyed music, drinks, food and view. We had buffalo chic sushi shrimp trigger fish and prime rib all tasted great. Appetizers were amazing. Best part they didn't rush you out. I highly recommend this place. read more

Well we tried Filets again after 8 years. Service was bad then and we were treated horibley. Service has NOT improved. We were told to seat ourselves, so we did. Waited 15 minutes until a guy brought us a menu. Another 10 minutes for water. In all an hour and a half for dinner. My wife's dinner, trigger fish with shrimp and pecans with brie had on little shrimp, one piece of pecan and a hint of brie. My dinner wasn't bad. The roasted red potatoes were steamed not roasted and came with no butter. The bread was not bad but wasn't warm. Long story short, we will never go back. read more

The only reason I gave 4 stars was for cleanliness. I didn't want to put my silverware on the table without placing a napkin under it. However, the food was delicious. We shared the Filet and ordered an appetizer of the pecan crusted chicken tenders. I would go again, but will sit inside rather than at the patio tables. read more

Great food! Wide variety. Crab cakes are wonderful--tasted yummy and more than I was expecting for an appetitizer. Also Hawaiian Sushi was a most pleasant surprise: not being a sushi fan, I got a recommendation from tiki bar staff and devoured the fried Hawaiian sushi. I really love the atmosphere too: the swing bridge that turns frequently for boats to pass and the sunset make a lovey postcard picture to send back home! The breeze was so refreshing after a hot day. Great marina if you need those services as well. Staff is very attentive and efficient! read more

Just don't waste the time or money on this place. The seafood was cooked poorly and not of good quality. The shrimp were the only good thing on my plate. We ordered the seafood nacho's, which would have fed an army. It was only my boyfriend and I, and the waitress should have told us that the nacho's were a huge appetizer. We weren't even hungry for our meals. After all of this, we were charged almost $90 for the meal. Sitting out on the deck was nice, we watched boats pass and enjoyed the sunset. But there were a couple of load drunks and a lot of kids, not a very nice night out for a couple who wanted a nice relaxing meal. Mostly the bad review is for the quality of the food. I could forgive for the loudness if the food was superb. It just did not meet our expectations. read more

We have been living in the area now for 5 years and went to Filets quite a lot on Sundays for the afternoon beach 94.9 radio station host and dancing. The dance floor is a typical outside , over the water, at the beach place, only here at Filets, it always smelled like sewage. We ate sandwiches and appetizers most of the time with drinks, until we decided to make it a full service dining experience which I must say, if you are allergic to any shell fish ---'DO NOT EAT HERE" . I told the waitress I was and she went to make sure that the "Grouper " Baked or grilled w/ a sauce on top did not have any shell fish in it. Well after waiting for over an hour, within 2 min. of eating some, I was having trouble breathing and starting to swell. She ran to get the owner who proceeded to yell at the waitress for lying to us, and she started to cry, claiming she talked to the chef and he assured her that there was no shell fish in any part of the order. He promptly said the sauce had crab or shrimp juice in it to which no other meal was offered to me, nor the price of the meal taken off. I ended up in Grand Strand hospital for the entire night with my eyes swollen inside out and my face so swollen that they thought I had been in an accident. I have never been this swollen in my life and now I have an epipen . Needless to say, we didn't go back, but low and behold, a few months later, Filets was one of the 15 restaurants busted and on the local news, for serving an Asian cat fish for Grouper. Asian cat fish eats up the good antibodies in your system, and is dangerous to humans. The owner of Filets was interviewed, on T.V., saying his produce man ordered the fish, un knowingly to him, LOL !!! Yet, he knew he was paying far cheaper prices for that fish, yet charging Grouper prices. Oh, by the way, did I mention, this Asian Cat fish is DANGEROUS to humans ??? Very overpriced, small portions and dangerous. read more

Nice friendly place, over priced for the area, food is OK but there are better places for seafood in the area. Outside bar is nice and so are the bartenders, live music is OK. Just an average place to eat, I would try other places in the area and compare. read more

We have been here several times for drinks and always had a great time. The bartenders always made sure we had a good time. Tonight we went for dinner and we had a fabulous dinner!! The filet melted in your mouth and the lobster bisque was super!! We will be back!,, read more

Sat at a table for 30 mins on a Monday afternoon at 4:30. No one said hello to us. We left. Absolutely horrible place. No wonder it wasn't busy inside and wait staff was sitting around just talking to each other - no one cares. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME! read more

The food was amazing and service was unbelievable!!! I would totally recommend this!!! Right when we ordered it ft like the food was out a minute later!!! The food on the other hand was also very good I wanted more!!! 5 stars!!!!! read more

Great meal at great prices. Best meal we had this week. Keep away from the chains and over priced buffets and support small local joints like Filet's. Great beef cooked to your specifications. Fresh seafood prepared in some very unique dishes. And plenty of good old fashioned southern favorites. Excellent service to boot. read more

Loved this place, great food, great atmosphere, beautiful view

If I didn't have to choose a star to start writing it would be 0. My husband and I have been dining here for many years in the past 2 years it has gotten progressively bad. The last 4 out of 5 meals poor to mediocre at best. Tonight being the worst. It seemed everyone that ordered anything had an empathetic visit from the manager. Steaks being of a totally disgusting and unacceptable manner by all that ordered them including myself. The manager just stood there like a jaw dropped deer in headlights. After complaining that I received a fat, grisly and tough ribeye instead of the strip, I ate alone 20 minutes after my husband finished his meal. Now a dried out tough and grisly strip steak that I swear they just cut the ribeye down the middle slapped it back on the grill and brought it back out. The manager brought it over herself, I questioned immediately; IS THAT A STRIP STEAK? Her response; Mm Hm....I'm sorry they messed up your order, dropped it and left. We were disgusted, appalled, pissed and now finally fed up and "DONE" with what we previously consider to be a much better restaurant than it is. They seriously need to unload the young lady that is currently manager as well as the head chef or whoever is ordering their beef and seafood as it is of the poorest quality I've seen and had in quite some time. You want a good steak, go to Longhorn or Logans and seafood go to Crab catchers. read more

The atmosphere outdoors on the marina is nice on a good night. I wish I could say the same for the food. I had the cioppino with marinara sauce ($24). The marinara tasted like it came from a jar of Ragu sauce and overpowered the seafood. A definite disappointment!! read more

My family and I were first greeted by great and happy hostesses that made us feel welcomed! We decided to eat inside on a Friday (busy Friday) So, I recommend making reservations first. We had a family of 6, but we didn't have to wait that long. Our hostess kindly sat us very quickly with a table next to the water. Our waiter Rick, was so friendly and attentive without being over the top. We had great memories. The only downside is the prices are pretty high, but it is very classy inside. Also for everyone leaving negative comments- there aren't many tables in the inside, I would recommend the inclosed patio. read more

After visiting Filets last evening, I decided to write a review. I have been coming to Myrtle Beach for many years and have finally gotten to your restaurant. I was totally impressed, five stars from here! Someone I was with had a special order and it was done to perfection, which made us both extremely happy. We will be coming back here many times in the future. Thanks again Kelsey, you were superb! read more

We just had a horrible experience. We had a coupon for buy one entree and get a second for free. We were a party of three. Two of us ordered one of their specials "Par Four". The third member ordered three sushi rolls. Our salads were brought, no problem. When the dinners arrived, our friend still had not seen any of his sushi. The waitress told us that the sushi chefs were really busy. We had nearly finished our dinners and still no sushi. Our guest spoke to the waitress, cancelled the sushi. The manager came over, made excuses for the missing sushi chef and then offered something to our guest. He declined as we were all finished with our meal. When we received the bill, we were charged a surcharge ! This was because we ordered the "Par Four". This was not stated on the coupon nor mentioned by the waitress. UNBELIEVEABLE! We are locals, but we will never go to Filets again. You have been warned! read more

We went for the Monday happy hour specials. After reading some negative reviews on here we were a bit wary; however, we decided to give it a shot. You could actually taste tequila in the margaritas (which is more than I can say for many places). We each got a 1/2 lb of crab legs for $5 each. The tiki roll (specialty sushi roll - 10 pieces) was also $5 and delicious - spicy salmon, cream cheese, asparagus all tempura fried and drizzled with a sweet chili sauce. We also got teriyaki wings(10 good sized) for $5 - and even though teriyaki is my husband's favorite but not mine - the wings were perfectly fried and sauced - not too much, not too little. We DID look at the dinner menu and compared to several restaurants we've also dropped in to on our stay, the prices were pretty reasonable for the quality of food offered. We will probably return for dinner service before the end of the week =) read more

Was just down to Fillets for the Christmas Regatta. Was having a wonderful time with 6 other couples. We all ordered dinner and drinks, watched the boat and then went back in to listen to the two piece band and have more drinks. The manager came over to our tables asking how much longer we thought we were going to be because he had 14 people waiting for our table. He said when he took reservations his intention was for people to come in, eat, watch the boats and leave. We were in shock, the next thing we know all these people are standing around our table asking us when we were leaving, how much longer we were going to be? So we got a hold of our waitress and asked for our bills. What we failed to tell the manager was that it took almost an hour to get our meals after we placed our orders. We didn't think to mention it because we didn't care, we were listening to the music and ordering drinking enjoying the company of our friends. When walking out I spotted the manager and told him how shocked I was that we were treated that way and told him if he didn't want our business we wouldn't be back. His reply was, well if you're saying you won't be back, why should I care how you feel. When others in my group stopped to voice basically the same feeling about how we were treated, his response was, "as I just told that lady, if you're not coming back why should I care how you feel'?. Well we told him we're locals and we have friends in the area. Every night isn't a special event like the regatta. Our group has been there many times, with even more people than we had tonight and there were only a hand full of other customers there. So why should he care? Well, went there are no locals there when the tourist aren't in town and he's out of a job, I think he'll care then. I think the owner, who will be losing business will care. Like I said there were 7 couples tonight, each couple had bills over $65 tonight. In the past it's been the same, plus we've spend a large amount of money on the rip-off tickets from the machine in the bar. We were only 7 couple tonight, but with that attitude, I'm sure more customers will be feeling the same as us. Hopefully, the owner will get this information from either the waitress' or his father who was there tonight and knew people at our table, and this manager who has no customer service skills will be gone before we ever think about returning to Fillets. Too bad that one person can ruin such a fun place. Fillets isn't the only game in town, we'll take our group and money elsewhere. I do have to say the food and the wait staff are great. Too bad the manager is so bad. read more
