Honestly get what you're getting for 15$ buffet with drink included. Not many options and kinda bland without salt and pepper and sauces. BBQ cooked well but the sauce was odd. Staff was very friendly and vibe was very country-based.

After landing at Myrtle Beach International Airport, my friend and I headed straight to Simply…read moreSouthern Smokehouse for lunch--and it was the perfect way to experience Southern hospitality. If you're looking for authentic Southern comfort food rather than another seafood buffet, Simply Southern Smokehouse is one of Myrtle Beach's best-known local favorites. The restaurant offers an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring a wide variety of home-style classics in a casual, family-friendly atmosphere. One of its most charming traditions is that the staff periodically break into song, creating a warm, welcoming experience that's uniquely Southern. The buffet changes daily, but during our visit it featured an impressive selection including crispy fried chicken, fried pork chops, pulled pork barbecue, smoked chicken legs, collard greens, green beans, cornbread, banana pudding, soft-serve ice cream, and peach cobbler. The fried chicken was outstanding--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside--and the pulled pork was tender and flavorful. Personally, I tend to prefer barbecue with a deeper, smokier profile, so while I enjoyed the pulled pork, this is better described as a traditional Southern buffet than a destination for smoked barbecue. The homemade desserts, especially the peach cobbler, provided the perfect ending to the meal. The value is exceptional, especially considering the variety and quality of the food. The staff was genuinely friendly, and the singing added a fun, memorable touch that made the restaurant feel more like a community gathering than just another buffet. I also appreciated the thoughtful gesture of complimentary pocket New Testament Bibles available for guests near the entrance. If you're visiting Myrtle Beach and want to experience classic Southern cooking at a reasonable price, Simply Southern Smokehouse is well worth a visit. Come hungry, expect hearty comfort food rather than competition-style barbecue, and you'll likely leave satisfied.

Best ice cream I've ever had. Came here two days in a row! Staff was amazing as well.read more

Oh my... Kirk's Ice Cream is AMAZING!…read more If you love Blue Bell ice cream, this is your place. They have what feels like every Blue Bell flavor you could ask for, and choosing just one is almost impossible. The scoops are enormous! Every time I go, I tell myself I'm only getting one or two scoops. Then I end up ordering three because it's just that good. Somehow, after finishing it, I'm already thinking about what flavor I'm getting on my next visit. This is one of those places you have to experience for yourself. The ice cream is delicious, the portions are generous, and it's absolutely worth the stop.
