Favorite coastal GA/ SC restaurants

A couple of threads have inspired me, so I'm going to take a business trip one week this summer traveling from Amelia Island area to Myrtle Beach (and then circling back "home" via inland routes.

What are your favorite good, casual, waterfront or near the coast restaurants along the lowcountry coast?

Price really doesn't matter. Fresh seafood would probably be my first choice, but interested in any options.

Obviously, with a week to travel approximately 6 hours en route, I'll be stopping to visit customers all around the area. Looking forward to finding out about Fodorite favorites!

And, toss in favorite hotel/motels in here too if you want.

In additon to the great places listed above,

Georgetown: the Rice Paddy

Pawleys Island: Bistro 217, Orobosa's (we had an unbelievably good, creative lunch there), Frank's & Frank's Outback

Myrtle Beach: just to show there are a few unique places in MB, try E Noodles (20th Avenue South, just north of the airport on Business 17); the reviews contained in this link are not overstating the food I've gotten here many times:

beachdweller, etal...how about Mrs. Fish in Myrtle? Someone just recently told me about it and really touted the food there. Paper plates?

Bubba's Oyster House in Savannah. Or is it Uncle Bubba's Oyster House? Delicious oysters on the half shell.

Gretchen,

Orobosa's new place is on the north causeway road, on the left just after you turn off of 17. You've got to try it!

iceeu2,

I've also heard good things about Mrs. Fish. It's "downtown" in MB, where 501 meets Kings Highway. It is supposed to be a no-frills, homestyle place with probably mostly fried seafood. That's not really our thing anymore, but if I were hankering for a fried fish plate, based on what I've heard, I'd head there.

Is it in that catering place sort of across from the hardware store? You're talking about the causeway to Pawley's?

Fried fish--Sara J's on the causeway to Garden City. Good other stuff also.
LOTS of good stuff in Murrell's Inlet. Russell's is very good--and friendly. For an oyster roast, no ambience but still the best is Nance's--just a big ole dining room on the inlet.
We'll be there July 4th this year and looking forward to the boat parade.
