Spending your Christmas vacation in Myrtle Beach and along the Grand Strand offers you the chance to take in the sights and sounds of this thrilling coastal destination. From spectacular holiday shows and events to fabulous shopping opportunities, you’re sure to have a unique experience when you spend the holidays at the beach. While your Christmas vacation may take you away from Grandmother’s house and home-cooked Christmas dinner, there are plenty of outstanding restaurants serving Myrtle Beach visitors and residents this Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Here are our Top 5 Suggestions for Christmas Dinner in Myrtle Beach.
Rioz
Rioz Brazilian Steakhouse offers a feast beyond your wildest imagination every day, but on Christmas Eve, you can probably make room for a little bit more! Set in a dimly-lit dining hall, Rioz offers its patrons a sprawling salad buffet, featuring a multitude of salad options, cheese samplings, breads, and even sushi. Try not to fill up on the first course though because as soon as you let your servers (gauchos) know you’re ready, they will begin the revolving delivery of tasty meat selections, including sirloin steak with garlic, beef ribs, leg of lamb, filet mignon, chicken legs, and more! Enjoy grilled cinnamon pineapple and bananas as well during this feast fit for a king!
