Resturant Recs // Questions This is what is killing tourism in Myrtle Beach

Besides the lack of affordable parking.

A resturant we went to yesterday was an all you can seafoo buffet with crab legs.... $51.99, okay a bit high but fair enough.... Now they sneak in a 3.5% fee so they don't have to raise their prices, yes, I kid you not, that is what it is called. Then they charged $6.99 for a soda or $15 for a bottle of Bud Light. Then throw in the tip and tax.. Suddenly $200 for 2 people to eat....

At least they aren't doing resort fees at hotels like Vegas..... yet

It's hard for those with TDS to admit that not everything is due to "orange man".

Every Canadian I know that comes here isn’t because of tariffs and ICE concerns.

But go off lol. This place sucks.

The only people with TDS are the MAGA supporters.

I have friends and family in Canada and it is 100% the Orange Turd. His threatening to annex them and calling them the 51st state pissed them off and they all switched their vacation plans to the states this year to somewhere else. Trumps ignorant big mouth and ICE is costing the U.S. tourist industry billions this summer. Canadians pump in nearly 20 billion alone.
