    yummy roll

    We come to myrtle every year and we've been here twice and both times the sushi was fresh n tasted good. Waitresses are nice, I have nothing to complain about.

    While on vacation, our son found this place so we drove to check it out. We were able to be seated quickly which was very nice given the late time of the day we came. The server was nice, but did provide enough detail and when the food arrived, it was okay. Our son had some problems with the food as the order did not come out correctly and they had to bring out some different rice. Beware that they will add gratuity automatically for parties of 6 or more. I do not prefer this and "IF" I saw the sign, I would have chosen not to stay. Automatic Gratuity is a sign that THEY decide that your service was good. Rule of thumb for me... if gratuity is required for X or more in a party, I will take my business elsewhere. Because you provide a sub par service, doesn't mean you earned it. Recommend? Only if it is the only place left open.

    I wish I could give this 5 stars because the sushi at this restaurant was absolutely delicious, I got the california rolls and crunch rolls. The service was a little awkward in this place, there was a weird energy and our waitress seemed to be angry. The atmosphere was very cool in here and I'm sure on another day it would've been just fine. I still recommend, the food was really good.

    the wait time to be served and our orders taken was a but long but they were packed, but the food was AMAZING probably the best sushi ive had i got a spicy california roll and it wasent spicy siracha it was spicy caviar loved it. my friends also enjoyed their food

    Spider, Needham, shrimp tempura rolls

    Food is excellent - chef cuts signature sushi rolls so they are not a-bite-it-to-eat-it or stuff-your-mouth-with-one-piece sizes. So you get more thinner pieces. Flavors are good, texture perfect. Ambiance and service great. Cost is consistent with location (Myrtle Beach). Overall excellent dining - we go whenever we come here.

    Delicious, I'll definitely be back. The sushi was amazing, I recommend anything with tuna either in or on it. The only problem I had with the food is that the calamari was not the best I've ever had. Other than that the experience was great. The waitress was really nice and the atmosphere was good, just your classic sushi bar.

    Came on a Sunday afternoon in October when Myrtle Beach has considerably less tourists so there was no wait, and hardly anybody in the establishment. Server was attentive and great. The sushi was delicious. There were plenty of TVs inside to watch my NFL games as well. I had three meals at Broadway on the Beach during my Myrtle Beach stay and King Kong Sushi was my favorite.

    Delicious!! My husband got some sushi, I got the hibachi, we were both very pleased with our meal. The prices were also very reasonable in my opinion. Staff was excellent! Definitely stop here if you're in town looking for sushi or hibachi!

    With tons of options, there is something for the whole family to enjoy. King Kong Sushi is located at the busy Broadway at the Beach venue but there was no wait for us to grab a table. The server was great and gave personal recommendations for menu items. The ambiance is a little odd but eclectic nonetheless. We ordered the bulgogi sushi roll and the volcano roll which were both delicious. The volcano roll comes to the table on fire to help slightly cook the roll which made for a unique experience. The price was pretty typical for your everyday sushi joint.

    Super yummy food, good service, and great view! We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and were surprised that there weren't many people here. We opted to sit outside and got a great view of the water and Wonder Works. We started out with the edamame and wings - both super delicious. The wings were very flavorful with a tasty sauce on it. For my meal, I got the tuna poke bowl. They let you choose a few different toppings, which were all super fresh and tasted great. Overall, prices were very reasonable as well, and I saw they had a daily happy hour on the sign outside!

    Volcano roll, smoked salmon, spicy tuna

    Highly recommend for sushi. It was so fresh and delicious. You have to get the volcano roll that they light on fire. It makes a nice smoky flavor that is incredible. We had the absolute pleasure of having Harliegh as a server. She was so kind and friendly. We had an ice chat about different sauces and food in general. Like talking to a friend that also loves food as much as my husband and myself do. Their prices were great. For being in a touristy part of town this was incredible. She was a lovely server. There was someone celebrating their 21st birthday. From the enthusiasm of the staff I believe it was one of their own celebrating his birthday. It reminding me of my days waiting tables and how those people are your family. LOVED the food, the camaraderie, and friendly staff. We'd come back again if we were staying longer. Would definitely recommend for others to check out.

    Nigiri sampler, miso soup, salads, key lime martini, king kong lit drink, and one in a melon drink.

    Sushi was delicious! Great dock outside! Only negative would be the comfort of the chairs on the deck. Drinks were strong. Hibachi food was also delicious! Service was great! Would definitely go back!

During a September 2024 vacation with a group, we went to Broadway on the Beach a couple of times. One of the nights the organizer of the trip wanted to go to a Hibachi place. My girlfriend & I didn't care that much about getting hibachi, and it's pretty expensive as hibachi tends to be. We ended up splitting a good amount of sushi rolls. It was a 3-roll combination, which came with soup & salad. I ate the salad & most of the soup, my g/f tried a couple of bites. We also added calamari, which my g/f ate more of, but she shared some. Everything was delicious. And we still got to see the hibachi show that the cook made, which was entertaining. Most of the group got the hibachi, but we weren't the only ones to not do the hibachi. Our sushi & food in general was solid. We also split a wine, which was good too. Staff was pretty nice, but a couple of things ran a bit slow, but overall it was pretty good service. At the end, we asked if they charge a credit card fee (as a lot of restaurants in Myrtle Beach did), and I had large wads of cash prepared to pay cash everywhere, and I was pleasantly surprised when they said no; so I paid credit here.

    Great staff and food! First time ever having hibachi and it was definitely memorable. I recommend…read moregoing with their seafood options, our chef knocked it out of the park. Very respectful of my wife's food allergies too.

Highlights were the honey chicken, coconut shrimp, butter shrimp, pork dumplings, bbq ribs, and believe it or not, the dessert! Really good ice cream (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and maybe cookies and cream), banana pudding, chocolate pudding, cookies, sweet bananas... yum! We were there around 2pm so no crab legs, but it was still an excellent value. I would recommend skipping the Mongolian-style grill. The sushi was decent but I wouldn't go to this buffet if that's your focus - there are maybe 8 kinds. I enjoyed the salmon wrapped crab roll though. Not a date place, but I think the word buffet pretty much sums that up. However, it was clean and comfortable.

To start, didn't acknowledge my presence for several minutes once I was at the counter. There was no one else in the building a woman taking orders and a man cooking. No personality whatsoever! If that was the only problem - I could live with that. It was 9 o'clock and they close at 10 so I understand BUT - THE FOOD WAS DISGUSTING!!! I got the steak and chicken entree. Steak (dog?) was not edible full of grizzle and dry. Chicken (cat?) was also horrible - dry chewy. How hard is it to get the rice right? ABSOLUTELY GROSS! LOOK AT THE COLOR EVEN! Paid $17 and change left the change from a $20 as a tip for doing NOTHING! WORST $20 EVER SPENT ON FOOD!

As someone who has worked in this industry, I recognized just how chaotic it was for the staff. However, the service from start to finish was impeccable. And the food was absolutely delicious. All of these folks had several people to deal with from moment to moment, yet they treated each interaction at a very personal and attentive level. I would like to give particular emphasis on the two ladies at the front desk/hostess stand. I believe one of them was named London if I recall correctly. Absolutely amazing service from them. And the bartender, her name was Tina. She was by herself and getting absolutely slammed with orders from the restaurant and people waiting to be seated. And while we were there, there was also an upset customer she was trying to handle a dispute with, yet she handled that, and everyone else waiting in queue, with absolute professionalism and kindness. The server, and the hibachi chef, were also very good and warm and welcoming. Very impressed with how everybody handled such a chaotic night. We will be back. And hopefully London, and Tina, and everyone else will be working because we know we're in good hands there. Thank you all so much for a wonderful Christmas Eve meal. Highly recommend this place.

So I asked about ordering hibachi to go because it looks similar to what we have in California called Benihana. They said they cannot take orders over the phone we had to come in and order and wait. So I came in after looking at the webpage knowing exactly what I wanted to order for sushi because I can't order hibachi. I asked what the deal was with the hibachi and they said that they don't do hibachi to go; only on Sundays. I said OK so then if people come in they can have hibachi any day? She said no it's completely random when they get a hibachi chef in. I said so in other words people have to call and see if you even have a hibachi chef? She said yes it's very frustrating for everybody. I said that's very unprofessional and I don't know how a business can do that. I was brought over to where I order sushi and the menu is completely different than their webpage. I asked the guy about the rolls that I wanted to order and I pulled up the webpage showing him that the menu they have here is completely different than online and the prices are different. I told the guy he needs to tell the manager that they need to fix their webpage so that it's accurate with menu items and pricing. So they get an F for them not keeping everything updated, no online or phone orders and not even having a hibachi chef that's on staff every day it's just ridiculous. When I gave the guy money to pay for my stuff he's sitting there waiting there as if I'm gonna tip him. You don't need to tip on to go orders.... you're not providing me a service that deserves a tip, plus he kept my change anyways. When I got my rolls I took them to go. They were not made with the ingredients that they were supposed to be made with. One was extremely blah and flavorless. The other was just ok.
