It gets better and better. We started with cocktails that were very good. I had a cosmo that was delicious. I don't know what he had. Together we ordered the fried oysters. They were delicious. As good as Franks. Off on our own. The filet for him with asparagus and a baked potato. I had the crab cakes with southern beans and sweet potato casserole. Everything was great. My suggestion is to make reservations. If you see me there, stop by and say hello. read more

We have been to this wonderful restaurant twice. We actually find ourself there two wedding anniversaries in a row. The reason would be the service is wonderful and the food amazing!!! Their outdoor area is very inviting for casual drinks with friends and inside there are 3 bars! This time we went they had a rehearsal dinner for a wedding so they accommodate large groups! The decor is wonderful!!! Last, but not least, our waitress I gotta say is top notch! Her name is Favor. We didn't have to ask for anything! She asked us, and all I can say I know we will be heading back again and not wait a year! We live in an area with a lot of restaurants! We are still trying out more! I had the grouper and my hubby had the pork chop dinner. Everything was fresh! The salad perfect! Chocolate martini amazing! We also had a complimentary triple chocolate cake because it was our 50th wedding anniversary! I would go just for dessert and coffee! Lots of desserts to choose from. We shared! Instead of going to the typical bar n grill or restaurant and settling for issues, go here!!! Thank you to the chef that day as well! May 15, 2026 around 4:45pm. read more

After several weeks my sleep is still troubled. I feel violated and cheated. My party went to Palm 33 in Murrells Inlet for prime rib.  It was Wednesday, as advertised, prime rib day.  Everyone ordered prime rib, medium rare. Eventually, each of us were served, to my horror, left over, reheated meat. The nauseous brown outside mimicked the inside which was void of even a single drop of natural juice.  Evidence of the restaurant heat lamp. Almost $300 for a ruined birthday.  I will never go to Palm 33 restaurant again.  I will give my opinion of Palm 33 to anyone who will listen.  In my judgment, you deserve to fail if you're making a conscious effort to serve substandard food. Shame on you. read more

Truth - Tried the place 2 weeks after it opened & it was a disaster with 10 of us and too much to explain. We decided try try again 10 months later after seeing better reviews & yes the food & service was very good. None of us (7) had a complaint. Unlike last time we were served quickly. Everything was very nice looking, inside & out, so give it a try for sure. read more

Everything was delicious. The owners came out to great us. Staff was over the top A must do!!!!

The food here is absolutely phenomenal!! I had the grilled shrimp & it was soooo good!!

Came with friends on 4/17. We all got prime rib with baked potatoes and salad. Also got the grilled shrimp appetizer. The appetizer came out AFTER our dinner was served to us. My prime rib was very chewy (got it medium rare). Had to ask for butter and sour cream for my baked potato. Service was horrible. $194 meal. Won't be back. read more

I ate at Palm 33 last night and in my opinion, last nights dinner, was not very good. I have gone there in the past for drinks, sitting out side and it was very nice. It is a beautiful venue. I had a blacked grouper which was very good I admit. The problem was with the asparagus that came with it. They were overcooked, stringy and soggy. Worse there was only 4 pieces on the plate. My Pecan Pie was tiny, flat and looked to be over a week old. I may go back again for drinks. may even give them a second chance, but it was a big disappointment indeed. read more

My wife and I went to dinner at Palm 33 on 3/11/26 for my birthday. We were seated in the bar area in a booth. We received immediate service from the crackerjack and very personable bartender (James) who we had met previously when stopping in for a nightcap from an evening out several weeks prior. At that time, we promised him we would be back to try the place for dinner. The owners have put heart and soul into decor, ambience, service, and food offerings with daily fresh seafood specials, along with other specials that we encountered that evening on "Prime Rib Wednesday". The bar is a tribute to the late NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt (one of the co-owners is his doppelgänger), and he and his lovely wife stopped by our table more than once to warmly welcome us and to get to know us a little bit (we live less than 1/2 mile up the street from the restaurant). They also graced me with a complimentary set of birthday beads for fun neckwear, a piece of chocolate birthday cake that we shared, and participated with Jamie in singing Happy Birthday. Both enjoyable and humbling at the same time. My wife had the Grouper special with asparagus and a baked sweet potato. I had a rack of ribs that truly were "fall off the bone" tender and flavorful. I also had a baked potato (good) and Cole Slaw (delicious). I found pricing to be very reasonable for what we ordered (including 2 glasses of wine each) and overall a good solid value. Combining all the key elements of ambience, staff interaction (professional with a couple of sides of good humor), the warmth extended by the owners, the food quality and pricing, we will definitely be back - and not only for special occasions. Well done Palm 33!!!! Thank you for a memorable birthday restaurant experience!! read more

New to town and is a lesser known gem. Beautiful bar and dining area. Food is excellent and they have 4 TVs at the bar. Excellent service. Try the prime rib and coconut cake. read more

The ambiance, service and food were excellent. Had the pleasure of meeting Benny who walked around the dining room checking on guests. When the ownership takes the time to ask how the patrons are enjoying their meals and service, this is the sign of an excellent restaurant. read more

Terrific service, terrific food, friendly staff, very clean. Highly recommend. Will be back

Outstanding food, great atmosphere and terrific staff. A little pricey but very well worth it.

Service was good, ambiance good, BUT food was good, not great prices were outrageous, the food definitely wasn't worth the prices they charged. read more

We were celebrating a birthday so six of us venture to Palm 33 for the first time. So happy that we went...food was excellent with the service to match. Prime Rib was the best we've seen in a long time and the steaks cooked to perfection...Oysters tasty and not over-cooked. Everyone in our group enjoyed the beautiful setting too...we will be back soon read more

Though the race car out front kind of throws you off ,we now understand why. The owner looks just like Dale Earnhardt and is a great guy, Also the little gift shop as you walk through the front door is a surprise but, your eyes will quickly focus on the fresh baked desserts which are made in house. We ordered the prime rib and the hog Fish, which were both absolutely outstanding. The service was second to none and the decor creates a great vibe. Nicely decorated for Christmas and made you feel welcome. We will definitely be going there again and again. read more

Excellent Food and Service, reasonably priced, lots of parking. Great outdoor seating. Atmosphere was delightfu. Definitely going back.

My husband and I are locals that frequent several restaurants in Murrells Inlet. When Palm 33 opened, we were there and even met the owner and his wife who appeared very nice. The food at that time was very good and we recommended to several friends. The second time we visited, the food was okay (not near as good as the first time) and my husband had to tell the waitress how to make a whiskey sour to relay to the bartender. What they brought out was not even close and we were told they didn't have all the ingredients and just made something they thought would be close...which wasn't by a long shot. Knowing they were new and still working the kinks out, we tried them three more times. Tonight will be our last. First let me say that we are foodies who know how steaks should be properly cooked; therefore, when we ordered ribeyes medium, we expected a warm PINK center. My husband's came out charred on the outside and a deep red center which he was willing to eat regardless. Mine, however, was rare with the center not even remotely cooked! We waited forever to be approached about how the food was and eventually had to get a busboy to find our waiter. We saw the owner making rounds and literally turn and walk away as he saw our waiter taking my steak back. When they brought back my steak with the same scoop of now cold instant potatoes, it was charred black and still way under cooked. I could not eat it, so my husband gave me what was left of his hoping I could stomach it better than mine. The owner then walked over and asked how we liked everything and I told him about the steak not being cooked properly both times. He offered to cook the steak more (it was already burnt on the outside to which I had said no. He then asked how to make it right, which I felt was pointless at this point since my husband was about done and we already sat there a long time. I finally said remove one from our bill. He acted appalled and asked why would he do that if I was going to eat it. A truly good owner would have offered at least a reduction in the bill or some other way to compensate our loss, but he never did a thing. I then told him we would never be frequenting his establishment again to which he arrogantly just walked. We paid our $90 tab without finishing our meal which was inedible and cold at this point. Mind you, we still tipped the waiter generously as he was not to blame and was empathetic to our demise at least. I can honestly say out of every restaurant my husband and I have dined at, we have not ever been treated as bad as this owner treated us or ever had a steak cooked so poorly. read more
