Frommer's Review
This is the most consistently irreverent restaurant along the Grand Strand, a fact that the owners proudly advertise in a large sign above the entrance. Most of the loyal fans of this place seem to revel in the ongoing banter provided by the waitstaff, members of whom compete for the role of sassiest, and/or most abrasive. In the equivalent of a wood-trussed airplane hangar with a scattering of motorcycles, an inventory of bras and panties hangs from rafters above the rough-hewed bar. The cavernous interior of the ample wraparound porches is usually mobbed with everyone from singles who swing to families with young children. Greasy food is served in huge portions -- and sometimes in buckets. Expect pork that's grilled in half-slabs, full slabs, and a humongous size known as "a full porker." Live music is usually presented between 7 and 11pm between June and October.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
