    After a trip to Broadway on the Beach, I couldn't get the family out of there fast enough when it came time for dinner. On our way back to Litchfield Beach I quickly yelped some options that would make a vegetarian, a 15-year-old picky eater, a hangry 2-year-old, and a picky husband and came up with Salt Water Creek Cafe. Did I mention our 2-year-old way hangry?! Without being asked our experienced waitress immediately calmed him down with mandarins orange and apple slices!! This never happens, and we were instantly in love with this place! Two crab sandwiches, two cheese pizzas, and some fried scallops later we were happy and satisfied. My husband said the crab sandwich got better with every bite. I gobbled up my fried scallops. Two notes: of you are used to heaping fish platters splurge on the large fried plates or be disappointed. If you order sweet potato fries make sure to ask for ketchup. Great spot that was a welcome change of pace from tourist traps and chain restaurants. Thank you!!

    Salt Water Creek Cafe is our go to for Sunday Brunch. The normal menu is available as well as a Brunch Menu. Both menus offer a large variety of seafood, steaks, and other Lowcountry specialties. The Brunch menu has several omelet choices, pancakes and Benedict's. We had the traditional Benedict (offered as 1/2 or full order), Godzilla Breakfast (eggs, bacon, grit cake, pancakes) Blue Moo (sirloin with caramel onions blue cheese crumbles panini ) Neptune Salad , and shrimp and grits. The Blue Moo was reportedly the "best sandwich I've ever had". Grit cakes are small but delicious. During off season reservations are not necessary. Service is attentive, helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend if you're dining in The Grand Strand.

    We found this place via Yelp. My first visit was a 5 Star for sure. We both got the Grilled Shrimp with Fresh Tomato and Basil. It was wonderful..... We made a point to return on our next trip down. 2nd visit: I usually sample the menu but it was so good, I ordered the Grilled Shrimp again..... This time it was a big disappointment. The dish had a pool of water/liquid in the bottom. It was just runny. Now I would like to give these guys 4.5 stars because they could not have handled it better. The manager came over and apologized. He agreed the meal was not properly prepared. We changed gears and ordered a Pizza which was excellent. The manager also sent us out a piece of Cheesecake on the house. Problems will always happen when human's are involved; it's how you handle the problem that will keep your customers coming back. To the management, nice job all around. We will be back.

    This was a good place to eat tonight. Lots of different choices on the menu. They seem to have a good choice on anything you want. I started out with a side Caesar Salad. The lettuce was fresh and the croutons were very good. They brought out some very tasty bread also. For my entree I got the Grilled Shrimp with Fresh Tomato and Basil served over Angel Hair Pasta. It was a very light dish, very tasteful and filling. I was pretty impressed at the food quality and prices. The service was a little bit slow. I'll definitely be back a few more times in the next few months.
