Amazing experience and great customer service! We had a party of 14 including 6 kids and were seated quickly and treated with such care from beginning to end. Food was amazing. Our server Raegan was so personable and didn’t miss a beat. Would love to come back each time we visit Myrtle. Food was kept got and constantly replenished. Definitely worth it and great prices for a seafood buffet.

Bennett's Calabash in Myrtle Beach is our no.1 choice for seafood buffet. Crab legs are perfectly done the way crab legs should be. Scallops are so good as well. The fried oysters, though, were a bit overdone, we still loved them. Shrimps and fish were perfect. Short wait time, and we were there this past Saturday. The staff are so wonderful!

Great buffet and service. Food was hot and fresh!! Crab legs were super. Ask for Zoi she was amazing and friendly ?

Eating at Bennett’s calabash was the highlight of our evening. We were quickly seated and had a lovely very attentive waitress. Our main reason for going was the all you could eat crab legs and they did not disappoint. My son quickly devoured two huge plates before he went on to the other delicious items on the buffet. I ended my experience with having several delicious desserts. An overall great experience. Hi

We were greeted well by Nicole to be escorted to our seats. Did not know we were walking into a buffet until we were escorted to our seats Our waitress, Carli was wonderful to explain that we had a choice of the buffet or choose from a limited menu. It was late at night and a buffet was definitely out for us. Looking at the menu we were surprised at everything ring fried, not our choice at this time of lifestyle. Thanks to Carli again she was able to have our scallops boiled! Carli was an awesome waitress! As we were sitting and waiting for our food and eating it was a pleasure to watch these two people, Carlos and Erica bus the tables! It is not a glamour job for some but they made it fun and joyful. Would we go back, yes, for the mere satisfaction that the owners have extremely good employees who care about the people who come in. They speak to you, you are not just a ticket to the food line. The price for the buffet, I cannot vouch for that as I have not eaten a buffet in many years and don’t know if I could get my money’s worth and feel good at the end.

In my opinion, at $41/person, this buffet is too pricey for the quality of their food. Quantity was definitely not a problem, but the food was Shoney's buffet quality with the exception of a few additions like crab legs, prime rib and ribeye steak. If you are more interested in quantity than quality, you will get your money's worth. Otherwise, go elsewhere. I don't mind paying for good quality food, but it was not. The service was very good. We were a party of nine, and this was the concensus of all of us.

Our waitress, Nicole was awesome!! She was super friendly and very helpful!! She always knew just what we needed. The food was good. The crab legs were small but very tasty!!

Although we live in Myrtle Beach, this was our first visit here. We brought my family from out of town here and they loved it! The food was good, but our service was better! We had Felicia and she was amazing, we will definitely be back!!

All you can eat crab, plus other seafood (shrimp, salmon, etc.)? A buffet that's really good (not just warmed over food but tastes fresh and homemade)? Attentive service? You pay for it but it's worth. The crowd validates my opinion. By the way, it's not "quaint". It's busy and loud, like most good buffets.

Crab legs was ok but mushy and cold was only given a cracking utensil no small fork to get the meat out. This is not fresh seafood! The fried grouper was was soggy and the crab cakes was horrible. We tried several things and found nothing that was good. Tried the ribeye and it was cold and had a lot of gristle and fat. We tried dessert the oreo cookie dessert which we spit out! The cookies tasted like a damp basement smells. $200 before tip for 2 adults and 2 14 year olds. Left disappointment, hungry a sad that we wasted so much money. We will not be back or recommend this restaurant to anyone!
