Seafood spotlight

Carolina Roadhouse's six standout seafood dishes

The seafood side of the menu is where Carolina Roadhouse built its reputation. From the signature crab dip to the giant Platter for Two, these are the coastal dishes that define a Roadhouse meal on the Grand Strand.

$17.95 · Signature

Lump Crab Dip

The most-ordered starter at Carolina Roadhouse -- a warm lump crab dip with Old Bay-seasoned pretzels for dipping. Indulgent, messy, and thoroughly coastal.

$28.95 · Solo Platter

Fried Seafood Platter

A generous spread of golden-fried seafood -- the flagship entree that defines the Roadhouse dining experience and draws visitors back year after year.

$44.95 · For Two

Platter for Two

The same giant fried seafood experience scaled for sharing. A Myrtle Beach bucket-list meal and the dish Golf Magazine's writers raved about.

$32.95 · Lump Crab

Crab Cakes

House-made crab cakes using lump crab meat -- a coastal Carolina specialty that stands on its own as a premium entree.

$23.95 · Local

Carolina Flounder

Local flounder prepared Carolina-style. A regional specialty reflecting the Roadhouse's coastal South Carolina identity.

$25.95 · Roasted

Oven Roasted Salmon

Fresh salmon slow-roasted rather than fried -- a lighter alternative to the deep-fried platter lineup for guests who want coastal flavor without the breading.

Steakhouse side

Steaks, chops and ribs at Carolina Roadhouse

Carolina Roadhouse is not just a seafood spot -- the steak menu runs from the approachable Marinated Sirloin at $27.95 all the way to a $42.95 Filet Mignon. The Prime Rib is a slow-roasted house specialty, and the full baby back rack rounds out the chop-and-rib options.

$27.95 · Marinated

Marinated Sirloin

The most accessible steak on the menu -- marinated in house seasoning and grilled to order. A solid value for a sit-down steakhouse experience on the Grand Strand.

$38.95 · Thick-Cut

Ribeye

The big-appetite choice -- a thick-cut ribeye with the fat marbling that makes the cut worth ordering. Grilled to your preferred temperature.

$42.95 · Finest Cut

Filet Mignon

The most tender cut on the menu. Center-cut filet mignon grilled to order -- the premium option for a special-occasion dinner in Myrtle Beach.

$39.95 · Slow Roasted

Prime Rib

Slow-roasted prime rib -- a house specialty at Carolina Roadhouse that competes with dedicated steakhouses for its depth of flavor and tenderness.

$38.95 · Surf & Turf

Steak & Shrimp

The surf-and-turf combination that makes sense at a dual seafood-and-steakhouse: steak with jumbo shrimp, at the same price as the standalone ribeye.

$23.95 · Full Rack

Danish Baby Back Rack

A full rack of Danish-style baby back ribs slow-cooked tender -- the menu's answer for guests who want something between seafood and steakhouse.

About Carolina Roadhouse

A Myrtle Beach landmark since 1995 -- seafood, steaks, and a real bar.

Carolina Roadhouse opened in 1995 at 4617 N. Kings Hwy and has outlasted three decades of Myrtle Beach dining trends by delivering what the Grand Strand does best: giant, generously portioned seafood platters, thick-cut steaks, and the kind of coastal-casual atmosphere that keeps both locals and vacationers coming back. The centerpiece palm tree and upbeat music are fixtures; the kitchen handles everything from a $6.95 kid's corn dog to a $44.95 Platter for Two with equal conviction.

Golf Magazine named it among the best spots to eat with a group of friends -- which fits. The menu is built for sharing: the Lump Crab Dip lands first, the Platter for Two arrives in the middle, and the extensive bourbon list sustains the conversation at the end. For a single-location independent restaurant to hold that kind of standing through the Myrtle Beach dining cycle is a genuine achievement.

Dine-in and takeout are both available. Groups up to eight are seated together. Call ahead at 843-497-9911 for larger parties or current hour information.

Ordering tips

How to get the most out of a Carolina Roadhouse visit

Start here

Order the Crab Dip first

The Lump Crab Dip with Old Bay pretzels ($17.95) is the table's first move for a reason. It sets the tone, and there's nothing comparable on the starter list in terms of pure coastal flavor payoff.

For two people

Platter for Two is the value play

The Platter for Two at $44.95 is $22.48 per person -- cheaper than two individual seafood entrees from the regular menu. The obvious call if you're there for the seafood experience.

Steak night

Prime Rib or Ribeye

If you're there for steak, the Prime Rib ($39.95) and Ribeye ($38.95) are the house-strongest cuts. The Sirloin at $27.95 is the budget entry point -- it's marinated in-house and reliably executed.

Bourbon bar

Ask about the whiskey list

The 25+ bourbon and rye selection is deeper than most casual-dining bars. Ask your server what's currently in stock -- Jefferson's Ocean ($18.95) and Willet Family Estate Rye ($18.95) are the premium tier. Whistlepig 10yr Rye ($15.95) is the value sweet spot for serious whiskey drinkers.

Families

Kids menu is $6.95 flat

All seven kids items are $6.95 -- chicken strips, cheeseburger, corn dog, fried shrimp, wings, grilled cheese, and pasta. Straightforward, predictable, and priced competitively for a sit-down restaurant.

Large groups

Call ahead for parties over 8

The restaurant seats groups up to 8 together by default; larger parties may be split. Calling ahead at 843-497-9911 gives you the best chance of sitting together, especially during peak Myrtle Beach summer season.
