9 Best Southern Restaurants near Longs

“Food was great…friendly staff!! Must try…specials are phenomenal with different specials each day!!“

“SO!!!!! Can I just tell you!!! My mom and I were supposed to go to Damon’s Rib & Steakhouse for my birthday, as your dinner is complimentary on your birthday. When I got to her house after work, it was clear she really didn’t want to drive all the way over there and the fact that I just drove 25 minutes from the same location somewhat, neither did I. After saying no to a few suggestions, lol I finally agreed on The Big Easy which is right down Hwy 90, 15 minutes from the house. With her being adamant about driving, it was a good decision. ANYHOOOO…. We get there and it is a diner, but not like Double T, it’s small (only five tables and two booths) it’s dated, cluttered and more with a to go sandwich shop feeling than the comfort of a diner. In my mind I was thinking, this is definitely not what I was thinking for dinner…..But I held my tongue because it’s the thought that counts… LET ME TELL YOU!!!!! Don’t judge a book by its cover because literally the BEST red beans & rice I have ever had . And I lived in Nola for three years, working for Dicky Brennan Co, who is considered the restaurant royalty of families in New Orleans. The gumbo was sick and the shrimp and grits were insane!!!! The man behind the counter who was cooking , came over to the table to talk to his and he was from Louisiana and luckily my love for the show Swamp People and Troy Landry is the only reason I understood him . If you haven’t eaten at The Big Easy Diner and you live here, you need to and when you come visit me, believe me when I tell you, I’m taking you.“

“Best in South Carolina! Food is Southern cooking at its finest! Crab legs are fresh and served hot at a price you can’t beat. All of the personnel is super friendly and on top of it. We’ve been there at least 20 times in the last year and never ever had a problem. It’s Local, it’s friendly and it’s Southern!!! Heading there tonight with our visiting guests!“

“Best fried scallops anywhere! And I'm from New England.“

“This was a great meal! Very local spot with great, friendly service. We got breakfast sandwiches for lunch. They were made to order and very good. You can tell they care about their quality as the man behind the counter asked if we liked our food. We will definitely be back if we are around!“

“Absolutely love the breakfast buffet. Everything was great. We now come on every vacation!!“

“We took our youth group on a trip to Myrtle Beach and this was the closest Bojangles to us. We called to give a heads up that we would be coming to order about 18 meals. When we called in, the young man that answered was friendly and took down an order. When we arrived, the manager on duty was extremely friendly and helpful. She placed sauces in a box and drinks in a box to help for easier transport. We had our order within minutes of arriving. We were pleasantly surprised at the hospitality, friendliness, and accuracy of our order we experienced at this location. Thank you so much for such a pleasant experience. It indeed makes a difference! <3“
