    New dinner menu!

    New menus at 631! Come check them out as well as our new summer cocktail list! Nothing beats dining in the river in historic Georgetown.

    The restaurant is in an old historic building and the usage of the space is one of the best concepts I've seen so far! We sat in the "open kitchen area" and were able to watch our food being made. While it was busy and a smidge loud, it was so intriguing to see the well oiled machine of staff that Frank's has. The food was spectacular! We had the Parmesan Baked Artichoke hearts and the Goat cheese Croquettes to start and delighted with each bite. Then our main courses were served - I had the Petite Filet with mashed potatoes and Au Poivre sauce which was absolutely fantastic. Each bite perfectly balanced and delicious. My co-worker and the special - Quail with wild rice and Brussel sprouts and after tasting h the sauce on my steak asked for another little cup for his meal which elevated the already tasty dish! To top off the night, I had Key Lime Cheesecake and he had the Carrot Cake with Rum sauce. I had to take 1/2 of my cheesecake back to the hotel because it was such a beautifully large piece - so, lunch dessert today it is! Hoping to be back in the area for work next year because I'll for sure be back!

    Nov 2025 My wife and I were visiting Myrtle Beach and decided to take a drive to the small town of Georgetown, SC to look around. While exploring the shops downtown, one of the shopkeepers asked what brought us to town. When we said we were just checking things out, she recommended the Swamp Tour and even called to see if it was running. The tour was excellent and a wonderful way to see the history and beauty of Georgetown. Afterward, the tour guide suggested we try Franks on Front for lunch -- which is how we ended up there. When we arrived, there were no seats available on the porch, so we sat on the front patio. The setting was pleasant with plenty of people-watching. Our server came by for drink orders, and for starters we ordered the house-made cheese biscuits, served with butter. For lunch, my wife chose the Paneed Chicken Breast with 631 marinara, linguini, and Parmesan. I ordered the 631 Burger with bacon jam, charred onion, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, and sea salt fries. The biscuits took a little while, which I assumed meant they bake them fresh -- they were good, though I personally think they would be even better with a savory jelly or jam. The real issue came afterward: our entrées took almost 45 minutes to arrive after the biscuits were served. It seemed likely our server didn't put in the food order until after the biscuits came out. My wife eventually got up to ask about our meals because several tables around us, who arrived after we did, were getting their food, dessert, and even coffee while we sat waiting. What made it more frustrating is that our server rarely checked on us. She only came by at the end to ask if we were finished so she could bring the check, while frequently attending to the table beside us. Overall, the food was good and the restaurant itself is nice, but the service on our visit was disappointing. Based on our experience, we'd probably try a different restaurant next time we're in Georgetown.

    Crab stuffed flounder with broccolini and rice

    Very nice restaurant with outdoor seating We had goat cheese croquettes and the special of the day-- crab stuffed flounder stuffed with broccolini and rice It was pretty tasty Waiter was friendly and everyone smiling Inside had cold a/c so I chose outside for a more warm temperature as they had ceiling fans

    Flourless Chocolate Torte

    We went to Frank's for lunch, which is always a 10/10 for food and service. After we left, I realized I had accidentally left my AirPods on the table. When we went back in, the table had already been cleared and they were nowhere to be found. I assumed they were gone for good. About an hour later, I received a call from the owner letting me know they had been found. She explained she wasn't there when we initially came back, but once she returned, she reviewed the cameras and realized my AirPods had been wrapped up in the linens during clean up. They took time to investigate, tracked them down, and saved them for me. The level of care and hospitality is truly commendable- and honestly, how many places would go that far? Amazing food, amazing service, and people who actually care. Can't recommend Frank's on Front enough! At this point it's more about the effort than the AirPods

    Small plate filet with mashed potatoes.
    Cm W.

    The food was delicious! The small plate filet, and crab patty were wonderful. The mac and cheese side was large enough to share. And the flourless chocolate cake was rich and delicious (recommend sharing this too). The bartenders were friendly and helpful. The drinks, including the frozen cocktails and strawberry spritz were amazing!

    FRITTER

    It was a cold windy day and we stepped into a packed interesting looking restaurant. We always like the closeness of this type of table arrangements as we end up converse ring with other folks. We started off with a special mushroom soup $8. It was creamed based and good, but too salty. Second course were the conch fritters $15 I have been enjoy conch chowders and fritters me adult live. These were slightly over done unrecognizable as conch and again salty. I would pass on these just because of the salt. I had the Shrimp Curry spicy and good $27. The boss had a Grilled 4ounce Filet. Cooked perfectly and of the choices she selected a Wine Reduction Sauce, no charge. A service charge is attached if you use a credit card. Again the kitchen likes salt and this was no exception. Finally to top off the birthday girls day, Key Lime Cheesecake. Definitely a commercial product. The service was very good, provided by Lori who warmed up to us and was appreciated. With all said, I would go back again, asking about the saltiness of anything I was thinking of ordering...

    Food IS rather pricey (expect about $65 per person) but excellently prepared and delish! We had…read moredeviled eggs w/ fried oysters (1 per egg )My wife had the chicken breast which she loved and I had the pan fried flounder, also very good. Service was great except our waiter did not check back for some time and I literally had to ask a passing server for a refilling of water. But everyone was polite and the smiles seemed very genuine. Ambiance is reflective of Georgetown (historic and charming) though this is an enclosed part of The George Hotel.

    My wife, parents, and I went here to celebrate our wedding and had an absolutely amazing dinner…read more The staff was so kind and made us feel welcome from the moment we came in. Every dish felt curated and intentional. We started with the crab dip and corn bread and both were delicious. The Miso butter that comes with the cornbread gave it such a pleasant Umami note. For dinner we had the Chicken, Scallops, Pork Chop, and Shrimp and Grits. The carrot puree that held the scallops was so smooth, sweet, and rich. It complimented the scallops perfectly. My shrimp and grits were fantastic. The grits were the perfect texture, and the shrimp cooked to perfection. The bone in pork chop was perfectly cooked, was seasoned so well, and extremely tender and juicy. I think I was most impressed with the chicken, sweet potatoes, and bacon jam. It's hard to explain but the bourbon bacon jam almost tasted like how it smells when they smoke a cocktail, in the best way. The sweet potatoes tasted incredible and balanced out the savory chicken. I really can't recommend this resteraunt enough. From the food, to the service and the ambiance, everything was fantastic. I've dined at a handful of Michelin starred resteraunts and the overall quality and completion of the dishes here easily competes and surpasses those experiences. Thank you for such a wonderful dinner

    Here's a fun, original review you can post for Buzz's Roost:…read more If you're driving from Charleston to Myrtle Beach after work, do yourself a favor and skip the predictable Taco Bell drive-thru. Instead, take a scenic detour to Georgetown's charming Front Street and Riverwalk, where dinner feels like the start of a mini vacation. We pulled into Buzz's Roost around 8 p.m. on a cool, damp Friday night in May, and the New England clam chowder was exactly what the doctor ordered. Warm, creamy, and comforting, it melted away the stress of the workweek with the very first spoonful. Our blackened fresh fish sandwiches were outstanding. The fish was perfectly cooked, and the seasoning had just the right kick to remind you that simple food can still be unforgettable. The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. With its exposed brick interior and waterfront setting, Buzz's Roost feels like a cozy warehouse transformed into a laid-back riverfront hangout. Friendly service made us feel right at home, and the skeeball and foosball tables were tempting enough that we're already planning a return visit. I can easily picture coming back on a warm summer evening--or even during football season--to soak in the Riverwalk views, enjoy a great meal, and unwind. They also brew their own beer, which is a nice touch. My only wish is that they offered a non-alcoholic beer on draft for those of us making the road trip and keeping it light. Buzz's Roost is more than just a restaurant stop--it's a reminder that sometimes the best part of the journey is pulling over and discovering a place you can't wait to revisit.
