Although it's billed as Italian, the focus at this popular bistro is fresh, local seafood, from savory local clams to juicy shrimp and diver scallops, tossed with pastas and worked into creative appetizers. The interior features open ceilings and a classy nautical theme in cool blues.
It's closed at lunchtime and on Sunday; it doesn't take reservations or have a view, but nobody fries up a mess of seafood like Lee's, which is something the restaurant has been doing since 1948. Even the biggest eaters will get their fill when they order the Shore Dinner: fried or broiled flounder, shrimp, oysters, scallops, deviled crab, and lobster, along with a shrimp cocktail, clam chowder, hush puppies, fries, and coleslaw. Sure, you can get your fish broiled or grilled, but why mess with deep-fried perfection?
When local mainstay Prosser's BBQ closed down, new owners jumped in with a rebrand, but they were wise to keep the menu and vibe the same—this ain't your four-star fine-dining eatery, and it's practically a requirement to lick your fingers clean. Lip-smacking pulled pork is served along with Lowcountry goodies like collard greens, mashed potatoes, fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, banana pudding, and peach cobbler. Most times, the line for Prosser's lunch buffet will weave outside the clapboard house after church on Sunday.
Like most spots in Murrells Inlet, this newcomer focuses on seafood, but its approach adds much-needed flair, from a trio of lobster, crab, and shrimp cakes to peanuts boiled in local beer. Enjoy it all with a horizon view across the salt marsh, washed down with a local pale ale.
You can smell the brine and Old Bay seasoning the minute you leave your car and head toward the front door of Nance's. Oysters, the small local ones that taste of saltwater, are the specialty, available fried or steamed in an iron pot and served with butter. Atmosphere is somewhat lacking, but that's okay—so is any inkling of pretension. There are other selections on the menu, but it's really all about the oysters.
Whether you choose to sit inside the contemporary confines of this classy waterfront restaurant or outside at the tropical-tiki Raw Bar, you can't go wrong with atmosphere or cuisine. The menu features seafood and sushi, as well as Lowcountry-inspired dishes.
