Lulu Buffet’s at Barefoot Landing Myrtle Beach

 

Lulu Buffets at Barefoot Landing Myrtle Beach was a new restaurant to us .  When we go to Myrtle Beach we always enjoy eating at new places.

Lulu is, if you have not already guessed it Jimmy Buffet’s sister.  Lulu’s has a menu which highlights the taste of the seas.  a lot of the items are different from what I am use to.  Lulu has a cookbook which my wife picked up this summer.  It has some great things in it so we were sure we would enjoy eating here.

The building is very nice.  It looks much better on the inside than  on the outside.  I think the best seating is the outside on the deck.

As with most of my visits to seafood restaurants I order one of three things. seafood plater, fish and chips or  a fish sandwich.   At Lulu’s I did change it up a little. 

 

Fish and Onion Rings

Ordering onion rings instead of fries may seem odd and they may not go with the fish as well, but look at them.  When I saw some going by the table before we ordered, I knew I had to try them. They were beyond doubt the best part of my meal. Lulu Buffets at Barefoot Landing Myrtle Beach menu has a lot of different things on the menu and you should really look it over before ordering, 

My wife ordered the blacken fish tacos.

She enjoyed the tacos and the strong flavors.  Overall evaluation of Lulu’s at Barefoot Landing Myrtle Beach is the portions are a bit small for the price you pay.  The food is good but not great.  Remember this was our first time eating there so we may have loved something else on their menu.

I found The Old Salty Dog Restaurant to be a good place to eat in Siesta Key. We stopped by the Old Salty Dog our first week at Siesta Key for an early dinner.

I had the traditional English fish and chips which were great.

My wife had the Captain’s Plate, which is a filet of Mahi with shrimp and two sides.

We enjoyed sitting at the Old Salty Dog, eating our food and enjoying the view around us. The restaurant has open air seating beside the sidewalk allowing you to enjoy the warm breezes and a view of the area. With the word Dog in its name, you know that they would have hot dogs on the menu.  The Salty Dog has two hot dogs on the menu one is a regular hot dog, but the other is a beast. I think the people from Hillbilly Hot Dogs may have consulted with them. It’s called “Our Famous Salty Dog”. I read about it and wanted to try it but in the end common sense won and I passed on it.

The next week my brother and sister-in -law came down to stay a few days with us. We told them about the Old Salty Dog and we decided to go there for dinner.

My Brother-in-law and I decided to tackle The Old Salty Dog.

I have to warn you this is not just a big hot dog. The wiener is dipped in batter and is then deep fried.  We decided to go a step further. We order the Loaded Salty Dog, which comes with Sauerkraut, Bacon, Grilled Onions and Mushrooms and three cheeses. After going through the items on this giant hot dog, I have to include the picture one more time.

How did we do? Well, we clean our plates and we were glad to know we had stomach pills back at the Air BnB house if needed.
