We originally planned to try another highly rated Italian restaurant in the area, but after reading…read moremore detailed reviews, it seemed overpriced with inconsistent quality and smaller portions--more suited for a date night than a family meal where value matters. Based on my brother-in-law's recommendation, we decided to try this place instead, and I'm glad we did. From the start, the experience stood out. The food quality was excellent, and the portions were surprisingly generous--something you don't often find at Italian restaurants. They also offer complimentary bread with a choice of soup or salad, which is becoming increasingly rare. Even more impressive, these weren't afterthoughts. The bread was perfectly crusty and served with a flavorful olive oil infused with tomato and garlic. Both the salad and chicken soup were fresh and well-prepared. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals. I had the chicken Sorrento with prosciutto and mushrooms over pasta, and it was outstanding--well-balanced, flavorful, and cooked just right. The restaurant itself is clean and nicely designed, creating a comfortable atmosphere without feeling overly formal. Service was quick, and our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout. I don't often give five-star reviews, but this place truly earned it. It delivers on both quality and value, which is a combination that's hard to find.

Location is on busy Highway 17 N. Parking is adequate for the restaurant of this size. When inside,…read morethe restaurant is darkly lit, with candle light. Numerous tables and booths available for seating, as well as the bar. And outside dining is also an option. Prices & portions seem reasonable. This place appears to get quite busy and also looks to have many regulars. Family-owned- European and Northern Italian influence. We came on a Saturday night, shorty before close, so we were able to get two seats at the bar. Our bartender was extremely attentive throughout our visit. Complementary bread is provided. Comes with a nice oil and garlic blend. Ordered the Bucatini Puttanesca & Spaghetti with Italian Sausage. These come with a dinner salad or up grade to a Caesar for $2 more (which I did). Both salads were fresh and delicious. I will say one of the best caesar dressings I've had. The pasta, presentation was lovely. The flavors bland, tomato sauce (tastes straight from the can) had no additional spices present and the pasta way over cooked. Seems their noodles are pre-cooked and Al Dente then is just not possible. This is another reason why the rating was just below average. Really disappointing. Would not be a place we would revisit.

We each picked a couple items, and at first I was skeptical about how well such a mixed menu would come together. That skepticism didn't last long. What's impressive is how they manage to cover different cuisines and still execute them well. The shishito peppers came perfectly grilled and paired with an amazing sauce that really elevated them beyond a typical appetizer. The meatballs felt like something straight out of a family kitchen comforting, rich, and reminiscent of grandma-style cooking. The shrimp scampi was another standout: flavorful, well-balanced, and not overdone with butter or garlic. But the real highlight of the night was the pistachio espresso martini so smooth, creative, and easily one of the most memorable cocktails on the menu. Overall, it's a great spot for sharing plates and trying a little bit of everything. It turns what could feel like a scattered menu into a fun, consistently solid dining experience.

We were promptly seated for our reservation and welcomed by our waiter. The pace is relaxed and not rushed. The specials were mentioned and questions were answered readily. We had time to read the drink and wine menus as well as the dinner menu. We ordered drinks which were delicious and arrived in nice time. Again, well-paced and no rushing. Then we ordered our meals complete; the staff then paces so everything arrives at the same time for the table. As such, the ladies had the chicken and pasta dish while I ordered the steak au pauve. My steak is prepared table side so the timing of kitchen and waiter must be good so that the dishes are complete and served at the same time. They were. I also had a Cesar salad that is prepared table side and all salads are served with chilled forks. Salads were excellent as was dinner. They had the blueberry dessert and I stuck with table side preparation and had the cherries jubilee. Everything was so tasty. As usual, the meal was a lovely event and a wonderful time. We love this place, and are happy to make plans to enjoy a meal whenever in Myrtle. The dining room is cozy and romantic with maybe 12 tables. Check the pics and vids.

We kicked off the night at the bar, where the mixologist clearly knows how to craft an exceptional gin martini. After a pleasant experience there, I settled the tab, and we moved into the dining room for the main event. Part Deux The menu was primarily New American but featured a few French classics, including (canned) escargot, Duck à l'Orange, and Duck aux Cerises. Our waiter talked up a new dessert--a peanut butter cheesecake with bananas foster flambéed tableside. While it was tasty, the $30 price tag felt excessive. Several reviewers on Yelp have mentioned a credit card surcharge; sure enough, my bill included a $10 "convenience fee" for using my card. Order Summary: Caesar Salad: $25.90 Escargot: $17.95 Bananas Foster Cheesecake: $30.00 Lobster Tail: $62.95 Rack of Lamb (6 chops): $79.95 Filet Mignon: $89.95 The service was good, but the staff could have been more transparent about the pricing.

In general, the food was good and the staff was friendly. During my two-day visit I had two meals there. Tried the Grilled Tiger Prawns, Soutzoukakia, Beet Salad, Maroulsalata, Pastichio and Spanakorizo. 1. The tiger prawns came with four pieces. Tasted fresh but a bit too salty for me. 2. Soutzoukakia was basically lamb and beef meatballs. Compared to Kofta in Middle Eastern cuisine, these had more flavors from meat but less from other ingredients. Served over tomato sauce. 3. Beet salad had generous amount of beets, but the arugula tasted just-out-of-fridge; it was very cold and crispy, lacking the flavor of fresh arugula. 4. Maroulsalata was a salad with chopped (green) romaine, green onions, dill, crumbled feta and lemon+EVOO dressing. A light dish perfect for pairing with their meats or (heavy) pastas. 5. Pastichio, the Greek style Lasagna, is a classical. It was my first time to try it and it tasted fantastic. It was an ~4 inch square piece of layers of hollow pasta topped with ground beef, a thick layer of bechamel, and topped with graviera cheese. Unlike meat sauce, the ground beef was "dry", but this was OKay because the bechamel would smoothen everything. In general rich in flavor and creamy and definitely filling. 6. Spanakorizo was like risotto or porridge but perhaps had even more liquid. It had Arborio rice, spinach, herbs and Kefalograviera cheese. The staff were friendly. They recognized me when I had my second meal there, answered my questions about the menu patiently, and explained to me about their tips (I will discuss this below). The dishes were served in reasonable time. The vibe was definitely at the higher end among the restaurants in Myrtle Beach; plus it was not crowded at all. Despite the good food, you should be careful about the tip. Their suggested tip percentages are calculated based on the taxed price; e.g. if you select the suggested 18% you are actually tipping more than that.

It had been on my radar for a while because I was craving fried pork belly, and I'm glad I stopped. I ordered the fried pork belly to go, and it was outstanding. The fat was beautifully rendered into a silky, melt-in-your-mouth layer, while the edges were perfectly crisp from the fry. It struck that ideal balance between rich, tender, and crunchy. It comes with plantain fries, which were a nice touch. I only sampled one since I'm currently following a keto/low-carb diet, but they were tasty. The biggest surprise, though, was the restaurant itself. The exterior doesn't prepare you for what's waiting inside. As soon as you walk through the door, you're transported into a gorgeous, open dining room. It's hard to believe you're standing inside one of Myrtle Beach's historic buildings. The space is stunning, with a beautiful bar, eye-catching décor behind and around it, and even a large decorative tree in the middle of the dining room that really adds to the atmosphere. They did a fantastic job with the design. If you're in downtown Myrtle Beach and looking for somewhere different to eat, especially if you appreciate well-executed pork dishes, I highly recommend giving Boteco VIP a try. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.
