Excellent gem in the middle of the mayhem that is Myrtle Beach. Food is great. Decent wine selection. They make a nice cocktail too. Don't take your kids. Don't expect fast food or a buffet. That's elsewhere at the beach. This is a place for a nice meal with nice ambiance. read more

Very nice Italian restaurant with plenty of options. I enjoyed the Veal parmigiana and my wife was very pleased with her Mediterranean chicken. Highly recommend this restaurant read more

Pleasantly surprised! We came here after waiting 45 minutes past our reservation time at the Hook and Barrel resturant in Myrtle Beach. We decided to give Gios a try and am so glad we did! The food, wait staff, and atmosphere was excellent and to top it off the prices were more reasonable and the wine selection excellent. We had Escargot Genovese, Mozzarella in Carrozza and Cozze al Vino Bianco for appetizers. Four the main we ordered veal Sorrentino, Paglia El Fieno and Bistecca ala Griglia. To say everything was cooked to perfection wouldn't be doing the chef justice, the meal was superb! Highly recommended, you won't go wrong. read more

We have been here 6-7 times now and never had a bad meal. I feel this is the best Italian restaurant at the beach. And we've been to all of them lol. Service was great, food is always great - my go to dish is the eggplant Parm and Chicken Piccata. read more

Gios Italian Kitchen - Eggplant Parm - Italian Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

See all

Food taste and ambiance/setting were top notch, however, expect your wallet to take the hit, especially if you add in some alcohol. You won't be disappointed with the quality or the service. Great for impressing clients or friends. Staff treats you good and is smartly attentive. Worth the drive to forgo something of lesser quality. Overall, would recommend and will return, just as soon as I finish my 2nd mortgage application lol. read more

Average food nothing special. I had the sausage and meatball it was eatable not great not bad just OK. I will not be returning. Despite not all the tables full they informed us there would be a wait Tables we're still empty when we left. read more

Love it! Good food and nice atmosphere! I hope they can keep the service level up to avoid delays because they can kick it!

There were six of us, we are a very regular dining out group. This should be 5 stars because the food was excellent. We had Veal Parmigiana, eggplant parmigiana, scallop and shrimp, chicken Marsala. BUT. Charging (2.75)for a second tiny cup of coffee was bad! Water glasses were not replenished. Extra cutlery not automatically given when desserts were shared.. I also asked for an extra side of tomato sauce and someone else want another serving of linguini, our meals were cold by the time they came The ambiance of the place was 5 star and should be a great place for those important/ special times, but the service has to be up to par too. Our server was extremely polite and professional, so I am guessing there was not enough staff on. Don't spoil the rest guys, get your service act together read more

service was incredible and our server was very attentive. the caesar salad was worth the 3 extra dollars but the main entrees were not good. they lacked seasoning and flavor. read more

Fantastic Italian Restaurant. One of the best in Myrtle Beach. Beautiful decor and many great menu choices.

Great service from Alex and the food was very good. The place has a nice vibe and I thought it was reasonably priced. read more

Gios Italian Kitchen - Oil that comes with the warm fresh bread. - Italian Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Tried this place on a whim. While we had to wait quite a while for our food, it was definitely worth it! The staff was working their hardest and overwhelmed at the number of people, and there were a few patrons who were definitely not sympathetic to the work shortage, but don't let that keep you away. The food was delicious and one of my sons has consistently talked about his meatballs dish and his gelato dessert for the past 18 hours. We will definitely be back! read more

Made the same day reservation for 8 people. Got the spot at 7. Got their at 6:50. They said the table was not available yet, so we ended up waiting until 7:20 b4 got seated. The restaurant was short staffed so food came out super slow, apps came on time. After apps we waited for almost an hour until the entree get to our table. And also they're obviously overbooked. Food were good though. read more

Exceptional dinner! The food, wine, atmosphere & service was superior. The seafood was fresh & the pasta came out steaming hot, not warmed like it was sitting under a heat lamp. Highly recommended for a night out! read more

One of the best meals we've had in a long time... everything was fabulous!! We had the muscles in white wine sauce for appetizer, the Bestecca sirloin, and the lasagna was our entree selections. We always have a good meal at this place, and highly recommend!!! read more

Fabulous Italian food and great service. Our go to place when we stay in North Myrtle Beach every April.

Kitchen closes at 9pm. Beach town in middle of busy season. Not sure if that is common here. Service was ok, nothing special. Food was pretty good. Had scallops in my dish that were nowhere near done and definitely not pan seared. read more

Gio's Italian Restaurant- Myrtle Beach Do NOT patronize this restaurant. I was served an inedible meal which I returned to the kitchen. I was told the chef "tasted" it and thought it was okay. Rather then taking the charge off our check we were forced to pay for this meal despite our objections. Moreover, the manager refused to come to our table instructing the waitress to handle the problem. NEVER, NEVER eat at Gino's. read more

Coming from Boston and it's Italian culture we were surprised at how good the food was at Gio's. Felt like we eating in the North End of Boston with the fresh pasta and delicious foods. All four is us had different plates and they were all cleaned up after an amazing meal. Highly recommend. Staff was prompt and courteous as well. Thank you! read more

We came here for a date night and loved it. We sat at the bar and the service was great and the food matched. We will be back and have already recommended. read more

We were looking for an Italian restaurant and Gios was the perfect find! Great service, great food and great atmosphere! read more

Gios Italian Kitchen - Italian Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

I called a day prior to our planned dinner at Gios to make a reservation, and I left a message. Since no one returned my call, I assumed they did not take reservations. I showed up tonight for dinner, and they were booked for the entire evening. So do they take reservations or not? If they are not going to return calls, why have an answering machine? My family was really looking forward to eating there, but unfortunately we won't get to this trip. read more

Great restaurant! Good quality food at a reasonable price. Typically Italian menu, with nice seafood options.

My favorite Italian restaurant in myrtle beach. Great food service and ambience. My favorite is the fettuccine Alfredo. Drinks are good from bar. Bread delicious. read more

My wife and I went there for Valentine's Day. Nice atmosphere, roses and candle on the tables. Our server Alex was great, very friendly and made sure we liked our food and did not need anything. I got huge portion of veal Parmesan. Tender and delicious spaghetti sauce and spaghetti. My wife got eggplant Parmesan and was very pleased. The eggplant was very tasty. I got a large piece of New York cheesecake and wife got the cannoli. Both were great. Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and plan on getting there before we go North end of month. read more

Mathew was our server and he was great! We almost didn't stay because we had two children with us but since it was early we stayed and are so glad we went! We had the pasta purses but asked to have them with Alfredo sauce instead of marinara and they were the best I have had since our disney cruise! Another person in the party had the shrimp and mushroom Alfredo and it was also amazing! Kids loved their food too! Thanks! read more

My husband and I ate here new year's eve. We left a cash tip and know he properly filled out the receipt. I guess the server took it apon herself to charge his card an extra $20. Food and service were not great at all. Very disappointed. read more

This is the best Italian Restaurant in Myrtle Beach!! I never write reviews, but the service here was outstanding!!! These people work their butts off to make sure everyone feels comfortable and at home! The ambiance is beautiful! The food is incredible. And the service is beyond anything I have experienced!! I am from Chicago and have traveled many places yet not a single restaurant has had this type of service! The staff here all works so well together and would do anything to make sure your family has a good time! IlThe owners and cooks here actually care about their customers. They check in constantly and try to help accommodate in anyway possible! My husband is a lasagna conosour and says this is the best lasagna he has ever had. Excellent wine options... Everything is authentic and homemade. The drinks and food tasted amazing. There wasn't a dish at the table that disappointed. Go here you will not regret it!!! Best food, drinks, time and experience ever!!! read more

Went to Gios a few weeks ago for the first time. The work they did to remodel the place was top notch, it's beautiful inside. We started with the Calamari Fritti which was delicious and a good change up from your standard fried calamari at other Italian restaurants. For the entree I got the Pesca Del Mar which was AMAZING, was clearly made with fresh ingredients and very well prepared. The head chef also came out after the rush slowed down and kindly greeted us which was a special touch to the whole experience. Definitely will be back soon and definitely a new "staple" in MB. read more

Wait we surprised me and my husband with an appetizer for our anniversary. Turns out it was escargot! Fort timer and Dee I wort going back for more/ amazing staff! read more

I don't think the quality of the food worthed the prices at this restaurant. The chicken was kinda chewy, the marsala was too runny, the prosciuto was overcooked and they used dried parsley. The side salad was very small. I had to ask for salt, pepper and cheese. Also didn't like that they used one plate with oil and vinegar for everyone to share. read more

Hate to differ but our experience was a mixed bag. The staff was edgy, not unpleasant or impolite but had an air of really not caring. Waited in the bar at a high top table until we were called, there were very few people in the dining room but we waited a bit. Ordered a Peroni Draft, they ran out, how does bar staff not know that. Oh well. Got our table ordered 2 appetizers, they got one wrong. How do you mistake mussels Posillipo for grilled vegetables? make matters worse the the waitress got indignant. Mussels finally showed up, well passed their prime not spoiled but almost. Mussels are a touchy food excellent when fresh but once they start to go they are awful. Entrees were a mixed bag, my friend's halibut was excellent, my wife chicken Alfredo just so so, my mixed seafood over pasta was terrible. The pasta tasted reheated wet and mushy, the lobster claws were small dry tasteless the dish was surrounded by more questionable mussels and then there was the parsley. Parsley should enhance flavor not overwhelm it, the stuff was everywhere ant it truly ruined any chance this dish had. Its a shame this place didn't work out, it's very close to our place and the reviews were so encouraging. Oh well.. read more

Fabulous Italian food!! The service, atmosphere , drinks and the food was the best I've had in a long time!! Can't wait to go back! Would highly recommend this awesome restaurant !! Barb read more

Amazing food and service. So good that we went back the very next week. Their specials are to die for and the best chicken marsala I have ever had! read more

I hated it and will never be back. The service was so bad and obvious. The lady managing the bar, where we had our diner (Baily) was so rude to us. We both felt she made us feel like we were beneath her, and we do not know why. We were not dressed up and it was just myself and my friend. Had a special Cosmo and it was nothing to write home about and would neve compare to Crave Cosmo. Nothing impressive about the food either - my friend had linguine with shrimp dinner and she said is was pure salt. I am a vegetarian, so it is normally hard for me, but i love going out and know when food is good or not. I had the eggplant parm and since i dont eat pasta, i asked for no pasta (did not want to waste it) i asked if she could just replace it with a veggie. she immediately said very loudly - well that will be an up-charge.. Really? what good restaturant does that? very disapointing and then my eggplant did not have much taste, but not bad at all, except it was almost cold. My friend dinner was steaming hot, and mine was less than warm. NOt once did Baily ask us if we needed anything or if all was good - we had try to get her attention for a drink. two different kinds of wine on menu we asked for, she said they were out of it and quickly said something like sub it with, while she was walking away from us, so we did not even hear her, as she did not even look at us. We had to flag her down to try and get that wine. we asked for water and never got it, but she had time to chat it up with a man and lady who looked very upscale and paid them much attention. I would save your money, as it is not worth it - soooo much better at Crave, Sole, Chao, Lombardo - and the service at those places (been going for past 5 years) and never had bad experience. Gios should treat everyone equally, no matter what they look like - and they should send Baily thru some training, since she is in the customer facing business. i will ensure i let everyone i know to not bother going there. it was a shame, i was so looking forward to trying this new restaurant read more

Fantastic meal across the board! As a certified picky eater I loved the fun flavors, vibrant atmosphere and kind service. Definitely a must try when in Myrtle! read more

RUINED MOTHERS DAY. I came in from out of town to see my mom for Mother's Day and had an awful experience. This was the absolute worst dining experience we have ever had. We had an 8pm reservation and did not get seated until 8:30. As we were waiting for our table multiple "walk in" parties were seated before us. And we had a "reservation." Once we were finally seated at 8:30 nobody came to wait on us. 10 minutes after we finally sat down a party sat down next to us and was taken care of instantly. At 8:50 I went over to a server to ask what was going on. And we were ignored for another 10 minutes. Finally, at 9PM (an hour after our reservation) we got up and left. We have never felt more invisible in my entire life. If you want a great Italian dinner, go to Crave right down the street. read more

Delicious food!! We had a really great experience here. The waitress was very nice and helpful. I had the best chicken parm that I've ever eaten. Everything we ordered was tasty. My daughter loved the fettuccine alfredo. One of my new favorite restaurants in Myrtle Beach! read more

Great food, & Service. Love the vibe, and welcoming. It's one of the best Italian in Grand Dunes!

I'm giving it two stars bc we didn't even get to eat. We had a party of five and three other parties was sat before my party although we arrived first and they did not have reservations. Waitress kept telling us the table would be ready soon but we just went ahead and left because we did not feel welcome. read more
