I gave a 4 because I ate brunch here and have yet to taste the sushi. we ate on the back deck with the marshes surrounding us. The brunch menu consisted more of omelets but they were good. My guy ordered the meat lovers I ordered the Rancheros. He loved his and I loved mine both came with home fries. the serving sized were perfect not to filling but filling. My guy also ordered the Danish basket they didn't have cherry so they gave him bonus Danishes along with pumpkin bread in which he loved the pumpkin bread. I cant wait to return because of my love for Sushi I know Ill be editing this and giving them a 5 star. the fish is caught fresh daily and everything's made in house. read more

Kinda doomed from the start. Hostess forgot about us standing beside the stand. Lied and said she was looking for us, we were looking at her the entire time. Took over 5 minutes to be greeted by a waitress, had to ask for straws and silverware after the appetizers came out. Waitress poured Tea down my leg without even apologizing. We ran out of drinks not once but twice. However I can say the Dynamite Sushi roll was killer. read more

Please don't go there until they get their parking situation straightened out it's a nightmare no one understands how to do it and they try to charge you $200. I feel bad for the workers there because they have to deal with it and the sheriffs department who else did also deal with the issues with parking no other place in Murrells Inlet other than the wicked tuna in Mochos have this parking scam going on. Please avoid it until it's fixed. read more

On line reservation made. Show up 15 minutes early to make sure. Told the on line reservation system must have a glitch by the hostess. No table available for 45 minutes. As we are "checking in" we get a text notification that our reservation is in 10 minutes. Then we are told by the very rude hostess that we have to wait outside for 45 minutes for our table to be ready. This is a joke of a place. read more

We just had the BEST waiter ever! (Steven) We had a table of 10 and he was so accommodating. The grouper was tasty and the cauliflower puree is worth coming back for alone :D read more

Waited for our checks for 30 mins. For it to be wrong not 1 but 6 times. Manager was rude and unhelpful. Really has gone down hill. Tourists if you're in town they will treat you bad and take your money. read more

Great upscale dining in a casual outdoor atmosphere with an awesome view of the marsh. We began with the stuffed mushrooms and yellowtail seviche (which was gone too fast for a picture--sorry). Both were delicious. We ordered a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc which wasn't properly chilled but our fabulous waiter, Willie, took great pains to get it cold for us. I enjoyed the grilled tuna immensely. The others in my party loved their entrees as well. Perfect ending was the homemade cookie selection (chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, sugar, and cranberry-white chocolate-Macadamia). Plus an excellent Irish coffee. Hope to be back the next time we visit the Myrtle Beach area. read more

We had reservations at the Wicked Tuna last night for my birthday and restaurant week and we were so excited. Got there to find out they did not have the short ribs for the restaurant week menu and would NOT substitute anything else for it. Was so disappointed that we walked out. How could you run out of a special on the first day?? Needless to say, we are locals, and will NOT go to Wicked Tuna. I suggest the rest of you stay away as well. Poor way to run a business!!! We did go to Creek Ratz after and had a wonderful meal, with an extremely friendly wait staff. Do NOT go to the over priced Wicked Tuna!!! read more

5 stars for our server, 3 stars for food options: Wicked Cool Caleb, our server, is the most impressive reason for us to go back back! Not only was he friendly, professional and attentive, he was the first server who was able to understand my (vegan) diet restriction:):):) HUGE for me, as it has been so difficult to find anyone who has that knowledge. THANKS, CALEB!!!! Food is good, portions are generous, view is awesome. Wish there a few more vegan/healthy options. Still, will come back for super Caleb service!!! Give that man a promotion- or two!!! read more

The food was upscale and truly tasty. However, I do fee it was a bit overpriced. The catch imperial was decadent and the sushi was very excellent. The service could have been slightly better and more attentive. However, for the quality and great views I would recommend this restaurant for an elegant night out. This place, Gulfstream cafe and Wahoo's are highlights in the area. read more

First time eating grits, a bit nervous, but when they came out with my order of shrimp and grits, I was overwhelmed. Loaded with anduie sausage and spicy flavors were complemented with the cheesy grits.. Fantastic read more

Feeling a little bit unhappy. Last night in town and decided a dragon egg would be just the thing. Loved the Wicked Tuna in Garden City. They are really on top of things. Great food and service, but Murrells Inlet ... meh! Ordered it to go. Parts were missing and there aren't that many parts. Ugh! It wasn't as good. If you can't eat there, save your money and go to Chick-fil-A. read more

What an amazing view from the outdoor patio and the weather was amazing for July. Our first sign that this was going to be a subpar visit is when our cocktails showed up in plastic Dixie cups! Wow, nice, fancy expensive restaurant and they ran out of glasses?!? By the way, if you order a margarita and it comes in a crappy plastic cup you do not get salt with it! Our entrees finally arrived but still no sign of our salads!!! I asked our server, Austin for cocktail sauce that probably should have accompanied our entrees and he went right back to bussing a table. Sauces arrived minutes later. The food was ok at best. Our server did return to ask if everything was ok and never removed any dishes the entire time. Now we are outside in July. Those dishes need to be removed to keep the flies away but oh well. Finally a food runner stopped by and asked to remove our plates as they have been stacked at the end of the table for at least 20 minutes now. I know Covid is to blame and they don't have enough staff, but they sure were quick to get a tab out to us. For the money spent it was not worth it. This was 1of 3 restaurants in a row we tried while we were there and it was the worst. read more

Love this place. We stay 45 minutes away when we visit myrtle beach each year. I overheard a lady on the beach talking about the hushpuppies ( my weakness ) and had to try it out 3 years ago, and make a point to revisit each time we are there on vacation. The hushpuppies were incredible, but that was only the beginning. Everything is fantastic including the service and the atmosphere. Perfect setting and excellent view. So glad we found you Wicked Tuna ! #wewillbeback read more

This is one of the best seafood restaurants around! The only other place that had fresh tuna and other sea food this good would be Legal Sea food,but they are not located here. Highly recommend this restaurant . Great service, great decor, great food. read more

Wicked tuna was recommended by more than one person during our stay. My husband had the king crab legs they were tasteless. Had the octopus salad and we it was pretty good and so was the then crab bisque. My son had a Maryland roll and that was petty good. Waiter was pretty good . Great location food wine and a nice atmosphere read more

Our group of 4 arrived to the outside "Tuna Shak" bar area around 2 pm. We sat at a table & decided we would just wait for a server to grab our orders since there weren't a lot of people in there. The server came over to us & told us we would get our drinks faster if we just went to the bar instead. OK, no problem, maybe she was busy with others. So we went up to the bar. The bartender acted like we were a HUGE inconvenience, and we weren't even greeted with a simple "hello" ... I didn't even see a smile one time we were there. Now I have worked in the restaurant industry for years, maybe everyone was having a bad day, but for the sake of the restaurant there should be people happy to serve customers no matter what is going on.... Besides the strange service, the location & drinks were excellent. If we do decide to come back, we will probably sit inside and try out the food! read more

Food is excellent! But the built in gratuity for our table of six, did not encourage Jenn our waitress to be expedient with her service. We understand things get busy but she passed through our area multiple times ignoring our table and we had to actually get up from the table to find her to retrieve our credit card when we were trying to leave. This put a damper on what had been generally a pleasant experience. We've been visiting Murrell's inlet on vacation for several years and have visited here each time. This is the first experience with poor service in as many years. read more

So disappointed. Been going here for years. Ordered Tuna Steak meal $38. What a joke. 6 pieces of sliced tuna and a scoop of rice, nothing else. We are locals and we are done! read more

Hi baby this place was awesome me and the wife and the mother-in-law aide here I had the chef special grouper with a cream sauce with crab on top excellent, Jacob Clark very excellent waiter knowledgeable of everything didn't have to write nothing down everything was great when it came out would recommend this restaurant to everybody I knew travels to Myrtle Beach to Murrells Inlet South Carolina read more

My wife and I arrived at approximately 7:45 and put our names on the wait list at Wicked Tuna and was told 40 to 50 minutes we checked in twice and did not get a table until 9:10. The place was relatively empty at this point. Were were seated over looking the stage for a live band who just started their last set when we placed our orders. My Crabcakes arrived in about 30 minutes I finished eating and my wife's Sushi arrived sometime after 10 PM and that was after chasing down our waiter. I have never minded I actually prefer to pay more for great local food and this wasn't it not by a long shot. This place takes advantage of the tourist. read more

Food was overall delicious!! The only problem I had is the price of things. It was outrageous! The kids meals were $15 dollars! As long as you are willing to spend some money, great restaurant! Also, the service was great!! The nice lady was always ready to fill up drinks! read more

Cool atmosphere. Great service. Got in quickly but got there early. Not that impressed by the food BUT wife wanted to share a fried platter; typical fried platter. However, get the hi-wire ipa would go back and get something different. read more

After being slammed with every imaginable tax - about $15 not including sales tax wont be coming back here. Ever heard of a hospitality tax?

The meal was incredible. I thought this was going to be a little be too big of a restaurant do do everything well on a holiday weekend and I was wrong. The drinks were great, the appetizers were great and the meal was great. Our server was TG which he joking told us that TG stood for Too Good. He was right though... he was TOO GOOD!! The guy knew very wine and every dish by heart and had some terrific suggestions. read more

Great food. Great service. Had a fabulous meal and enjoyed the time spent there. Highly recommend

I stopped in for lunch on the way up to Myrtle Beach to spend Thanksgiving weekend with the family. I ordered the Surf and Turf Specialty Roll (shrimp tempura, avocado, cucumber, blue crab mix, seared filet, sweet glaze, ponzu, scallion) and, I gotta say, it was kind of a letdown for the portion size with an $18 sticker price. Tasty, but not very filling. The best part of the whole experience were the cucumber martinis that I paired with my sushi. read more

Very sad to see how much this place has gone down hill in the last~month. Updates to the menu, quality of food and lack of attention to detail makes it hard to want to come back here... after coming here 3 times a week in months past. 3rd time I've gotten sushi to go and it came in a box not sliced up with no wasabi or ginger. Last week was so excited to try the beet and arugula salad, only to get home and see they gave cilantro instead of arugula... as the salad base read more

The worst service in South Carolina. They closed on a Saturday at 11:20... they let us in the bar they said we weren't allowed to buy alcohol. The bartenders were so rude. The blonde girl in short black shorts said the "tourists should go back to where they came from" when we are not tourists.. we are from here. We went here for my best friends bachelorette and they wouldn't even acknowledge us or her. Why would they take 10 minutes to get us in the bar when they're not serving alcohol? Stupid. Our bride was devastated.. and she felt she disappointed with everything.. and this bar single handedly RUINED our bachelorette weekend. If you want to be treated like a human being that deserves to be treated with kindness.. DO NOT GO HERE. THE WORST BARTENDERS AND DOORMEN IN THE WORLD. Why bar closes at 11:20pm? Bye. read more

I would highly recommend to try these mussels in creamy tomato bacon (yess! bacon! i can't believe it either!) broth. I am telling you, I finished this entire bowl all by myself. read more

Menu was good. Sushi was amazing and so was dinner. Nice view as you sit outside and have a wonderful dinner. Staff was great and we weren't rushed. read more

We had a great experience here. Our waiter Steven was very attentive and knowledgeable. He was clearly busy but still took the time to thoroughly explain the food and drink menu. Everything we ordered was delicious. The she-crab soup was phenomenal. Crab wontons are a great starter. For dinner we had a lobster special that was SO good. Highly recommend read more

Met friends for dinner last night and was sadly disappointed. Service was so so. Meals were very skimpy for the price and not that great!Dinner for four with four drinks and two desserts well over $200! Won't ever be back. You're paying for the name. read more

My boyfriend and I visited Wicked Tuna based off a very high recommendation. While the location is beautiful, we did not feel welcomed and felt no vacation ambiance as you normally would on a dinner night out. We walked in to see the place busy for happy hour, but the hostess did not even greet us as she watched us looking around confused. When we finally went up to her after receiving no assistance she did not guide us to a table and instead told us to "stand and wait near the bar" which is completely awkward and uncomfortable. Instead of showing us to any waiting section we left and found it ourselves when she didn't as much as offer to show us a place to wait or give us any sort of ETA. Inattentive staff, could care less if you're there or not. You would think you'd get napkins along with your food. Long story short, happy hour prices are ok, sushi is fishy and definitely not fresh, even though it says "fresh everyday", and service is trash. 3/10. Go to Neptune's! read more

Have lived in the area for a year and a half and spend a lot of time at the Marsh Walk Murrells Inlet, more after beach season as most locals do. We had fiends in town and they chose to meet at Wicked Tuna as we had never been there before we said great, getting a reservation was no problem, it's the end of beach season. Waiter came and introduced himself and explained the specials and took a drink order and ask if we would like appetizer's we said we need to look he said i will ask when I bring your drinks. He came with our drinks ask if we would like any appetizer's we said no so he ask if we were ready to order (???) we said no we really need to look at the menu it is our first time here. We ordered halfway through our salad our dinners came out, now I was always told Wicked Tuna was as close to fine dining you would find on the Marsh Walk, Drunken Jacks at the other end has them beat hands down service wise food is equal both very good. But after we were done eating the waiter cleared or table and brought our check's never ask if we were done or would like desert or an after dinner drink. Seemed like we were at a high-end fast-food place get them in and out. Was surprised by the looks inside very dated the bar area looked pretty, but maybe because they don't us it. Just Disappointed. read more

Stopped in for Happy Hour while on vacation, just after Spring break, and before the summer crowd moved in for their season. The staff was friendly, prompt, and the California/Salmon Rolls were delicious! Great location in the middle of several waterfront restaurants, with a gorgeous view from the back bar, would definitely go again! read more

Food was on point!!!!! I had the grilled seafood platter and everything was done to perfection! I'm from Boston, and I'm sorry to say this place puts Legals Seafoods to shame!!!! Highly recommend! Lastly the view of the Inlet was the cherry on top!!!!! read more

Slightly pricey for what you get. Sushi was just average, hamburger was overly greasy, but the she-crab soup was great. You really pay for the view. read more

I vacation in Myrtle beach once or twice a year and I ALWAYS make sure to dine here. I've always had an amazing time with excellent food and service. Most recently, Erika was my server and she was incredibly sweet, attentive and funny! I was there catching up with a friend and we never felt rushed which is refreshing considering how popular this restaurant is and that it was towards the end of the night. If you've never tried it, add this to your list! I would recommend a reservation during peak season, but if you have to wait for a table it's 100% worth it. read more

News Years Eve dinner with online reservations. No wait when we arrived and seated right away. It was a chilly evening and we asked to be seated indoors and were moved immediately. Will was our waiter and he did an excellent job. Food and service overall made the evening enjoyable. I had the Surf n Surf and my wife has the market salad. read more
