Shady Rest Family - Johnsonville

Wonderful food and even better people. We love this place.

I'll eat here when I get through. I usually get the fried chicken dinner that was always good because it's always HOT when I get it. The staff was very helpful and nice when I stopped.

I only give this restaurant a review of the quality of food and food prices! After entering the restaurant, I saw that they had a shrimp and geese! Both people at my party ordered the special. We both waited 20 minutes to get shrimps. I also ordered a page of Fritten. The shrimps were fat, not fried crispy!!! The grottos Needless to say were not a southern grotto and they tried to make it fancy by removing corn from the taste of the grottos and I typical like grottos with corn in it but these were not paleable at all!!! Our side order of the frits was obviously cooked in the same cooking oil as the shrimps, because everything that was fried this night tasted like shrimp!!!! Their staff was very friendly, but I don't think they understand that by sitting there and staring at their customers, they feel uncomfortable. Check on your customers to ensure that they are all they need is acceptable!!! To stare them, however, is unacceptable! This restaurant needs to train her waitress a little better! You also need to think about not using your cooking oil so much again! When they reuse cooking oil, do not put so many different types of food into the same cooking oil!!! Otherwise a very picturesque peaceful establishment!

If you are near Johnsonville, take the ride to the Shady Rest. Best food is available everywhere. The staff is wonderful and lets you feel at home. The food.... And the prices are amazingly low! We're going to go to Johnsonville every time we're in Myrtle Beach, just to eat there.
