brother shuckers fish house

i absolutely loved thefoodand the service was amazing. i would recommend this place to any one and everyone

super slow service on a random tuesday, lunchtime, in the off season. server could not have been nicer and she did keep drinks full... but everthing took forever. everything.foodwas ok. fish was better than shrimp, but we're not wild about panko. cocktail sauce and fries were exceptional but nothing else was memorable. pleasant atmosphere but cannot recommend.

visited on a wednesday afternoon. the restaurant was nearly empty which was a surprise. the service was prompt thefoodwas good and priced pretty well, especially the luck special. thefoodoptions were extremely limited which was somewhat disappointing.

service andfoodare at a very nice level of performance. they do not use many shortcuts and i love the vibe; a synergy of classy and laid back that gives the place a nice pulse. the corn and crab chowder is ridiculous, there is just no reason something should taste that good. they close relatively early sometimes, but there is not much that i can say that isn't on the plus side with this place.

wonderfulfoodand service.

it is now our favorite place to dine when visiting mb.

the place isn't very large and it sits in a strip mall but don't let that fool you.

try it

unpleasant surprise. hmmm...... my first negative review because i am generally pretty easy to please. as other reviewers, i had a restaurant.com coupon when i took my mom for a birthday dinner. we told the waitress about the coupon up front, and ordered a couple of drinks, a calamari app. (underdone, limp breading) and two crab cake sandwiches (so-so). the meal came with bread (hard). the calamari came out quickly, but the crab cake sandwiches took almost an hour. so,we would have left and been ok with the slow service and so-so food, but..... at the end of the meal the waitress (friendly enough girl) took the cert. number off the app on my phone. great new tool, by the way. but once it's validated -- that's it. your $25 is gone. she came back and told us that we couldn't use it because it wasfoodonly . no alcohol.
ok.... i've been all over myrtle beach with these certificates and that isn't a thing anywhere else we've gone, but ok. here is what got me. the waitress came back and apologized because this same thing happened to her 2 days ago! here are some logical choices for our waitress: a) tell us up front it's $50 minimumfoodonly. at which time, we would have either stayed, but not gotten the app or the 2nd drink to push the bill for two ppl to $50 or left happily to come back another day with a party of four. or b) since we had already spent $38 on food, encourage us to get desserts or take some crab soup to go to make the $50 mark. she just closed out our check. so, i asked to speak to a mgr.(chris) to discuss the issue of the validated "used" certificate that didn't get used. he was very "fake" pleasant. you know the type.... smiled and said ma'am, but you knew he was thinking other words in his head. he had some logical choices too. a) to apologize, and give us 15% off the bill, as a courtesy. (i get e-mails from the restaurant that offer this or some other special, pretty regularly) b) offer us a dessert on the house (it was my mom's birthday, after all) c) offer us a free appetizer on a return visit. any of those choices would be good customer service, chris basically said, "too bad, so sad." he said to call restaurant.com and have them call the restaurant, and if he was there, he'd say we didn't use the cert. when i expressed that had a limited chance of working out, he actually said, "look, do you want my help or not? that's all i'm going to do." now brother shuckers probably doesn't care, because they were jammin' on a tues. night, but they certainly lost my business.

yummy!. we discovered this restaurant through restaurant.com. i read the reviews. all were positive so i bought the certificate. i had to call to find out their hours. over the phone, she referred me to restaurant.com! couldn't believe it! it was hard to find as gps lead us the wrong way. it is in a strip mall behind a gas station. everyone was friendly.foodwas wonderful. owner even came over to talk with us. we would go there again! yummy!

brother shuckers, what a great place to dine at. the atmosphere as well as the staff are excellent. greatfoodgreat prices. the best crab cake you will find anywhere. if you are on vacation be sure to stop here!!
3rd trip 9-4-17 still amazing no wait

a hidden gem!! great food, great atmosphere, great service. the live entertainment lent to the relaxed atmosphere without being intrusive. the owner stopped to chat with each table and made guests feel very welcome and cared for.foodwas delicious, especially the crab cakes - truly scrumptious!! a fun and tasty meal at a reasonable price, we wouldn't hesitate to return.

simply the best. ok... my grown children are always after me about trying the local "ma and pa" restaurants when i am traveling figuring that they will be different and that every once in a while you find one that is truly outstanding. brother shuckers is more than i could have imagined. i found our experience to be great from start to finish. greeted at the door by the host who is knowledgeable about the menu we walked into the place and were seated near the back. it became obvious that the place was full of people simply enjoying greatfoodwith a relaxed atmosphere. there was live music by a couple who set a mellow tone and made us want to sit a little longer and enjoy one more glass of wine. the crab cakes are real maryland crab cakes. the mac and cheese that came with the crab cake dinner could have been an outstanding dinner in and of itself. the wait staff were pleasant and attentive. watching the staff work together clearing tables, changing table cloths, setting the tables, cleaning the floors, bringing the food....it was like watching a great sports team on a good day. the owner, murph, seemed to make his way around. he seemed interested in who we were, where we came from and how we found out about brother shuckers. we loved our brother shucker experience and will visit again when we travel this way next year.

best place to eat in myrtle beach! right when we arrived there was someone right at the door to great us and seat us. and was very friendly. we were severed right away. we started with the amazing seafoodspring rolls! i had the crab cakes which is what they are known for and hands down the best i have ever had. my sister got the stuffed tilapia which has they crabcake in it. it was winderful. very friendly staff and great enviroment. i am totally going back.

awesome!. my goodness, i can't be happier than to have brother shuckers fish house just a mile from my home. a perfect place for me to bring all of my continuous guests.
not only is the staff attentive and personable but thefoodis always outstanding.
the crab cake dinner is the best i've had since living in mb for over 6 years, two of my favorite meals are stuffed tilapia and the new menu item pecan crusted salmon.
my guests are always please and when they return they ask to go back.

my wife and i went to brother shuckers this evening and if i had to sum it up in one word it would be disappointed. between the rave reviews here on the spoon and apparently a local blog about the restaurant we thought it was a sure fire winner. unfortunately we were wrong. first the good. the restaurant is located in a new little retail area and has a very nice and casual atmosphere with dining inside and outside available. we started off with the o'brother shrimp which were good. nice crunch and a good flavor with a perfect amount of heat. then came the disappointment. we had completely finished our appetizer and our first round of drinks before our server returned to take our entree order. my wife and i both noticed the service was all but falling apart all over the restaurant. tables sitting w/o drinks or not even being greeted, some actively looking for their server while others trying to just get their check. its as if the service had no organization. ourfoodhonestly didn't take very long to come out but what we recieved wasn't very good. my wife ordered crab cakes which were luke warm and the mac & cheese had a film as if it had been sitting in the service window too long. the shrimp and grits i ordered had potential but missed the mark. the shrimp were over cooked and rubbery and while the sausage gravy had a decent taste they drowned the entire dish in it which made it unedible.
i hate to bash restaurants being a former server/cook myself but our experience was awful. they might work these problems out but eat at your own risk.

thefoodwas fresh, had the special and appetizers. it was obviously busy but we did not have to wait long and the service was great

on a scale of 1to 10 i give them a 10+. thefoodwas over the top. next trip to the beach will visit this restaurant again.
