    Chicken Marsala
    David S.

    Fantastic meal on a busy Friday. All the locals eat here and now I know why. Worth checking out and the menu selection is amazing. Everyone enjoyed their food in our party.

    This is the place that locals come to eat. It's an experience of deliciousness and just super friendly people. They are in a strip shopping center and parking isn't an issue. Greeted by hostess who sat us right away. On way to table a server saw us, said hello and told us to enjoy our lunch. That's the vibe. Just down home people who make you feel appreciated for coming in and want to make sure that you have a terrific experience. The menu is chock full of delicious food and drinks. Nobody would have an issue finding something to eat here! They are a 'Pittsburgh' bar so they have some of the local things found on that area (fried in salad - it's great so stop making a face, etc). Ordered grilled chicken salad Pittsburgh style, 2 steak salads Pittsburgh style, and the fried fish platter. All were wonderful. The fish is flaky and grilled to perfection. Salads are huge and they even know to serve them with two sides of dressings. You are going to throw down very little funds for the portion and quality of food that you will get! Just absolutely fantastic. Don't sleep on this one. You will be back!

    The place is old style train station fun! We came here for the first time after hearing many of our Surfside neighbors say the place was good. Huge menu. Each day has at least a couple of specials. Today's specials were ground beef steak with fries and Jambalaya and both were excellent. So was the calamari appetizer and the French Onion soup! Service was first rate. They make all their own sauces, 1000 island, blue cheese and Ranch and you will not find any better at other food places. We will be back there again soon!

    Amazing food and plenty of it!! Huge menu and large portions. Definitely get the Bog Balls and Stuffed Mushrooms! THE BEST! We had the Shrimp Scampi, Chicken Alfredo, Blackened Salmon, and Fish and Chips. Everything single thing was great! Don't sleep on this place!

    Is smoking allowed indoors? Does it smell like smoke inside?

    It is not allowed indoors. There is space outside where people do smoke near the entrance but there is no noticeable smoke inside.

    How far in advance can you call for a reservation?

    Hi, I haven't had any issues calling a day or two ahead. They get very busy during happy hour times.

    Visited Paula Deen's Myrtle Beach, SC location on Mother's Day Sunday 2026 around 7pm. The place…read morewas full but there was no wait time for our party of 6 adults. We were promptly seated and drink orders were taken. The waiter reappeared about 15 mins later with drinks and cheese rolls and took the table's order. We settled on the Aspen family meal which consisted of 2 meats and 4 sides. We chose smothered pork tenderloin and fried chicken along with mac 'n cheese, collard greens, fried okra and candied yams. Fried chicken was awesome, crispy, with an assortment of dark and white meat pieces. We were looking for a knife because of the pork tenderloin and realized you don't need it. It was that tender. You could cut it with a fork and it too was awesome. Everyone raved about all the side items except the mac & cheese it was a bit on the bland side so it was not our favorite. There was no need for a refill of any of the food. The first round was very ample sized and everyone left very satisfied. And if I have a bit of feedback, our waiter was not attentive unlike the waitress serving the tables in our same area. He was didn't bother to come back and see if we needed a refill on any of the drinks or the food. The only disappointing thing was they no longer offer you a small sample size dessert to finish up your meal. It's been a while since I've dined here so I'm not sure how long that change has been in place. However, we understand the food industry continues to be impacted by the current economy. Overall, the restaurant was very clean, including the restrooms. It's a nice place to feed a large family who hates buffets.

    This was a bucket list for me and unfortunately it wasn't as I had expected. My husband & I were to…read moremeet family for lunch at the Boardwalk and decided on Paula Deen's Family Restaurant. Will say the area, the location, the draw and the atmosphere is fantastic, but not the food. Our family left disappointed by the overall quality of the meal, particularly given the establishment's reputation and the high price point. The cost for 4 people exceeded our expectations an amount that felt disproportionate to the overall experience provided. The service was adequate. Our waitress was courteous, but could have kept up on our drink refills. The food fell significantly short of our heightened anticipation. Dishes arrived at the table within minutes of ordering, far quicker than would be consistent with individual dish preparations. This is served family style with options of your main courses and sides. The okra was good, but had some very hard pieces. I bit down on one that was so hard it could have broken a tooth. Green beans were decent, but extremely salty. The creamed potatoes were the best thing in my opinion and we were able to be served both the white & brown gravy's. The fried chicken was so dry and uneatable, with extremely minimal flavor and texture that did not meet standard expectations for Southern-style preparation. We realized after the fact: you can request the chicken parts. The macaroni & cheese tasted mushy offering little depth of homemade character. The biscuits were also very dry. They looked great, but tasted bland. The fried fish & tartar sauce was probably the most memorable dish. However, not everyone in our party had it because they do not like it. There's other options for "main" choices, but you'll have to compromise as a group. You'll have to do the same as far as the sides too! I would not recommend Paula Deen's Family Restaurant based on this visit and would advise potential patrons to consider other options for Southern comfort food while in Myrtle Beach. There are many more options within this great broad-walk complex. That said, I would suggest shopping in the gift store located in the downstairs of the building, as there are lots of merchandise that represents Paula Deen far better than her eatery. * If you happen to be a Food Network FAN (like I am). Flavor Town is coming to the other side of town. Location will be at the Myrtle Beach Mall & will open in June 2026*
