They seemed to be very poor quality and I questioned if they were truly real scallops to be honest. My husband got Mahi and it was good.

We will give them another chance because we love the place but, hopefully the owner will buy quality Carolina seafood.

Grabbed a Pinot Grigio and a beer at the side bar while we waited. They brought out hush puppies when we sat down, & those lasted about 30 seconds at our table :) The staff was simply wonderful; We also asked the hostess to help us take a family pic outside before we left. They have a cute shop where you can pick up a t-shirt as a souvenir- which I had to do because I LOVE THIS PLACE. If this was close to me, I would eat here every weekend. The prices are reasonable, the food is wonderful, and the staff was kind and hospitable. There are many places to eat in Myrtle Beach, but we love supporting local businesses that are family owned.

We love the food, and eating here brings back great memories from past trips. It's the kind of classic American restaurant we just don't have back home.

There's sometimes a wait because Hoskins is popular with locals, but we don't mind. On our last visit, Holly was our waitress, and she did a wonderful job.

I ordered the bbq sandwich which came with Cole slaw and fries. There was a good size amount of meat, tender, with a sauce on the side. The sauce was in a more liquid form than thick. It was a little spicy for me but with the slaw, which was sweet it was a good thing. The fries like most places had a coating on them and were nice and crispy. None of my food was hot, but a good temp for me. Kids got grilled cheese which was a normal sandwich with applesauce. One had a cheeseburger but spoiled by fast food didn't like it. The adult with me said it was really good. Friend had the flounder sandwich with waffle sweet potato fries and hush puppies. Fries were very crispy. Sandwich ok. Service was good, they had kid menus and activity sheet. Prices are good. They give discount for cash pay, upcharge for credit card built into prices.

I immediately asked to speak with the manager. Rather than addressing the situation appropriately, he told me there was nothing he could do. They took my plate away without explaining anything, and the manager was not willing to remove the item from my bill or offer a refund. The only reason the issue was taken seriously at all was because I had photo and video proof showing the bug on my food. The service was unprofessional, the issue was handled poorly, and there seemed to be very little concern for customer satisfaction. Based on my experience, I would not recommend coming here.

We also ordered something to take to our daughter and granddaughter and she did the same thing just tossed the bag on the table and walked away.
