We ate at Wicked Tuna last week. We are in Myrtle Beach 4 or 5 times a year due to family in the area (and we love it too) and this was one of the better seafood meals we have had in Myrtle in a while. If you go to Myrtle Beach frequently you know that they are famous for Calabash style - which is fried, fried, fried. It is nice to get a bream from that and get something different and also a little healthier.
The meal at Wicked Tuna was one of the best we had of the week. We had a fresh hogfish special. The fish was lightly sauteed and covered with lobster and crab in a very light lemon/butter/cream sauce. It was served with wonderful sauteed veggies. The portion was very large, so we split it. The cost was about $32. Coming from the DC area, this is typical what you would pay at any restaurant for a dish of this quality. We also had sushi, which was very good. One person in our party ate on the light side, a spinach salad with strawberries, and said it was excellent.
The view is spectacular here as well. I would highly recommend.
Thanks for the review. I'm sure it is a really good place. I have a brother -in law that used to be from DC and his non-degree salary matched the high cost of restaurants in the area. Unfortunately salaries in South Carolina and surrounding states make it hard to pay for such expensive restaurants. I know that the cost of living is higher in the D.C. area, but I've always thought what a great deal it must be to vacation in a place like Myrtle Beach when your costs are basically cut in half. This sounds like a really good place if the budget allows.
