The Grumpy Monk Broadway

The wait staff there is always very good.

When we arrived, we initially sat inside. It was insanely loud and I had a huge migraine, so I went to the front to ask to switch to an outside table. It wasn't busy, so we figured it wouldn't be an issue.... You would've thought I asked to clear out the whole restaurant for the 2 of us. The waitress in pink crocs threw an adult hissy fit. Multiple other staff members made a huge deal about it. Our waitress was incredibly rude. Honestly, I was worried that they spit on my food.
If I had known it would be that big of a deal, we would've stayed inside. All they had to say was that we couldn't.
My california roll was warm.
The nachos was a splatter of cheese on the bottom of the tray with chips thrown on top of it.
Overpriced food.
Overall one of the worst restaurant experiences I have ever had.

If I could give over 5 stars I would! Service was top notch!! My son has a severe food allergy and Dawn & Madelyn went above and beyond to make sure his food order was safe. This means everything! Our family of 4 very much enjoyed our food and the atmosphere is energetic & fun! We will be back to this location again & again when we visit Broadway At the Beach. Great experience all the way around.

Firstly our server Amber was great. Nice but busy and attentive, and apologetic for how the night went more on that in a second.

The food oh boy first we ordered the fried green tomatoes. As a staple in the south, very disappointed because the tomatoes had a musky after taste as they were getting too ripe.
The sushi was luke warm the avocado was warm and mushy and the roll was bland.
My blt all the bacon was on one side but crispy the way it should be the only star on my plate to be honest. However the tomatoes were starting to turn or had been bruised as well so it dimmed the sandwich as a whole.
Then my side of mac and cheese was dry on top like it had been sitting under a warming lamp for a long while before being served.
My girlfriend got the mac n cheese grilled cheese. Again dry and a tiny bit of bacon in one side while the rest on the other again unimpressed.
Her side salad was how we should say tasteful. But it was like it had been stored in a manner in the fridge that it took on the taste of foods around it.

Lastly as we were getting ready to leave an employee was eating off the sushi bar between 945pm and 1020pm.

Now the experience while walking in a server is yelling at the hostess for some reason in the lobby. To which she's told fix the issue and do what she's supposed to. The server responds if they (i'm assuming another server) would do it she wouldn't have to. To which the hostess responded that the server is the problem. Very unprofessional on both fronts. I understand work conflict happens but in full view of patrons is embarrassing.

In short I paid 83 dollars for a very poor experience. I will not be back period lesson learned. As a local very disappointed in a local brand being this sad.

Our night had started off not too good and we were starving and we heard good things about this place so we went to try it out for ourselves. The service was Amazing!!!! From the hostess up front to our server (Cameron) who really sealed the deal for us.

Everything was great. Our server was fabulous and prompt. We had peach mules that were good. Our sushi was fresh and delicious. Nice view of the water too. Great place to eat- a little pricey but food and atmosphere were good.

Disappointing. I ordered seasoned roasted potatoes and received boiled seasoned potatoes that were still hard. My mother ordered a medium rare burger and received a well done, "hockey puck, dry, flavorless" according to their menu, patty. The waitress was annoyed that we complained.

Don't bother going

Food was PHENOMENAL, I literally loved everything. My plate with a burger, fries and 5 wings was only $20 which is a STEAL! My boyfriend got the shrimp and that was really good too, our daughters got the chicken tenders and they were good sized and very delicious as well. Atmosphere and staff were extremely nice, our bar drinks were really good also. Can't believe I missed this gem as many times I've been to Myrtle. Will definitely be back.

We stopped in here for a quick bite. Their sushi was not good, they didn't even use sushi rice. Their grape juice cider was mediocre. Their service was mediocre.
