    Most restaurants toss middle eastern cuisine into a big pile and call it all the same, however, at Lokum you get the FULL Turkish experience. Lokum means "Turkish Delight" after all. My husband is from İstanbul, and I am half Turkish/grew up in the USA. We both absolutely ADORED the people who run this amazing establishment. They were so sweet and running around making sure everyone had their needs met. The food is made fresh to order, so be prepared to wait and don't be a prude- It's delicious food just like mom makes it. Additionally, it IS halal. Everything we ordered was 10/10. Even the Döner was very close to what is served in Türkiye. The künefe was the best we've ever had in a restaurant, and it's made traditionally. The hospitality, the friendly faces, the delicious food- All worth giving a try- and ALL at a price you cannot beat, especially in this economy! I highly suggest trying the Ayran (salted yogurt drink). It is hand made and very good. If you're not used to it, you may not like it though, but this is the best place to try it! This is one of the best places in the entire South to get accustomed to Turkish culture, and we will definitely be back for the Lahmacun when we visit again. They do make it, but sell out early! If you're not into culture, they serve pizza- and it's fabulous. I was hoping the pepperoni would be sucuk but it is halal beef. Still so very tasty! Çok güzel!

    Chicken Adana Kebab

    Got the chef tasting special with lentil soup, hummus, baba ganoush, and chicken Adana kebab, with cheesecake for dessert. Everything was delicious! They served Turkish tea at the end of the meal. Staff were very friendly. We will definitely come back! :)

    Absolutely recommend! By far one of the best restaurants, I have been to in Myrtle Beach!! My only…read moreregret is that we did not go on a Saturday night for the belly dancer too! The atmosphere is lively, colorful and the music is loud enough to drown out other tables and not inhibit our conversations!! We were a group of 5 people (we did make reservations). Our waiter Zeon was great, very attentive, friendly and informative, fully capable of answering all of our questions in regard to the menu items. He didn't hover but had impeccable timing to be there just when your drink was needing a refill. We started with 3 different appetizers to share and try different items. The Mediterranean sampler of hummus, tahini and baba ganoush served with warm dipping bread, the Jerusalem combo - falafel, meat kibbeh, vegetarian kibbeh, Moroccan beef cigars with tahini dipping sauce and last but not least, the Phyllo Rolls. Everything was a surprise to your tastebuds! Although pretty sure the warm bread with the Baba ganoush was the fav! Our meals consisted of Salmon Shish Kebab, Beef Shashlik, Chicken Shrish Tawook and Lamb chops. All meals were cooked to perfection and extremely flavorful & the Mediterranean salad was light and fresh (one of my favorites for sure). I would recommend Jerusalem over and over again & we will definitely be back again. Thank you for a wonderful & fun evening

Her energy, attention to detail, and genuine care took the whole experience to another level.

    I love Middle Eastern food, and a coworker recently recommended a local restaurant where I tried…read moretheir chicken shawarma pita. It was absolutely fantastic. After looking into the restaurant, I was excited to learn that it's owned by the same person behind Jerusalem Café, where I've also had great experiences. As someone who advocates for Palestinian human rights, I try to be intentional about where I spend my money. I don't have any issue with Jewish people--in fact, my own ancestry includes Ashkenazi Jewish heritage, and I'm also Muslim, so I prefer to support halal restaurants whenever I can. My concern is specifically about whether a business supports Zionism or provides financial or public support for the Israeli government. I recognize that being Jewish and being Zionist are not the same thing. I've reached out to the owner several times because I'd rather ask directly than make assumptions. So far, I haven't received a response. Based on the research I've done, I haven't found any public statements or evidence that the restaurant supports either side or financially supports Israel, which I view as a positive sign. However, until I can get clarification, I'm going to put this restaurant on hold. I'm sharing this in the hope that the owners might see it and respond. If your position is one of neutrality, or if you do not support the Israeli government's actions, I'd genuinely appreciate hearing that directly. I simply want to make informed, ethical choices about where I spend my money.

    We enjoyed a nice meal and hospitality from Temur the proprietor. I've always found food in Myrtle…read moreBeach to be pretty overpriced, especially for what it is, so it's nice to find a place like this "that puts it on the plate". We enjoyed hearty portions of stuffed cabbage and Lamb Rice Pilaf that didn't break the bank. The humus we started with was of good quality and included an ample amount of bread. I've had, and in fact often track down Uzbek fare in Hells Kitchen in NYC, as well as on The Northside in Chicago. They have a lot of J Visas (summer work visas) from the "Stans" throughout the Florida Panhandle and Myrtle, so it's great to see some Russian/"Stan" fare come out of that. It's no frills, with some ambiance, but the food is very good and much better quality than most of the fried stuff here. Add this one to your Myrtle List along with Old Vienna and Mrs. Fish.

    It is not easy to find Uzbek cuisine in America, espeically in smaller towns like Myrtle Beach…read more This one is thus a surprising addtion to the international dining experience at the beach. This hidden gem is located on Kings Hwy, with exotic decor inside and many big tables for large group dining. I went there two times during my three-day visit to MB. Tried their Grilled quails, Uzbek bread, Uzbek mushroom soup, and of course, Lamb pilaf. Overall, the seasoning of dishes are not as heavy as most restaurants, but more homemade-style, especially the grilled stuff like that quail and side of veggie. Simple, not salty, but full of the flavor from the ingredients -- the umami of quail meat, the sweetness of peppers, sweet-bitterness of brussels sprouts, etc. The staff told me that his mom cooked the food lol. For other things, the Uzbek bread look like a huge bagel, had very desne texture, but its outside was crispier than bagels. The mushroom soup had a special flavor from possibly some herbs. The Lamb pilaf was delicious and filling: six chuncks of fork-tender meat, lots of perfectly cooked rice soaked in lamb fat, and refreshing carrot slices. I wish there could be yellow carrots as well, but the staff told me that it was difficult to get them in MB. The restaurant undoubtedly did not have a "good" dining vibe for me because it was too quiet. In fact, I was the only customer in the restaurant the second time I visited it. I was told that during tourist seasons the restaurant is packed with ppl but I doubt it. Anyway, it is a restaurant worth trying in MB if you are looking for some special dining experience there.

    It's been 3 days and I have not had an Indian meal. Ofcourse I had to google Indian restaurant near…read moreme and we found this... though reviews were okay but I was craving Indian food, so decided to go. ? There was only 1 server and owner. What's with Indian restaurants and their lack of staff? I have seen this trend throughout the coast and it irritates me, waiting for simple items like napkins, or water or if I have to order again- in short service was terrible I have seen that they declined customers because the tables were not cleaned. Anyway, we ordered- * Egg fried rice: simple yet tasty * Chili chicken: indo Chinese style dish which was good- 4/5 * Chicken biryani: well, it's not a typical biryani (like dum cooked or any other variance), it's more like chicken pulav (gravy mixed with rice type)- but it was sumptuous. 4/5 They have spicy levels up to 10 and I choose 8. Surprisingly, the food was good, no doubt about that. But service/parking disappointed me Parking: there are only 6 spots and it was full, I am not sure what to do if you don't find parking as it is on main road so street parking is not an option either Overall 3.5/5
