Toucan Charlie's - Myrtle Beach

We have been going to bruder shuckers for two years and we have noticed a change in the quality of their foods. we celebrated my birthday two weeks ago. at the arrival we sat immediately, but waited 10 minutes for a server, there were only 4 tables to this time. our server was pleasant and apologise that no one told her it was her table. I ordered my favorites the crabcakes and mac and cheese and my man had grilled fish. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw my teller of crabcake and ramaken of mac and cheese. the crumb cakes were not crawling as they were in the past. this was mostly filler and very little crab, looks like frozen from a food offer. absolutely disgusting. the mac and the cheese were always baked in a ramaken with delicious cheese and elbow makkaroni. what they served was a ramak, what saw and tasted to be velveeta and shells. my man said his grilled fish is good, but very small. pity that this local restaurant does not serve the quality of the foods they have in past. I doubt we'll be back soon.

Decided to try this restaurant after seeing pictures on Facebook of luscious, lumpy crab cakes. Don’t believe those pictures. The crab cakes had no lump crab meat at all. They were small and very mushy. Worst crab cake ever. On a positive note, the Mac Cheese was very good and the Fried Oyster Feast was also very good. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive.

After looking at the reviews I decided to go to Brother Shuckers. All the photos made the food look delicious. Then I visited their website. It appears their menu has been shrunk due to the pandemic. Also they wrote on their website that this is their new official menu. And any previous outdated menus and prices found on 1Google, 2Yelp, 3Facebook, 4TripAdvisor or anywhere else will not be honored. I get that but it sounded rude. And they did not provide any new prices. Like most places I'm sure their prices have raised considerably. But to make the menu smaller and charge more without being upfront about the prices, made me feel uneasy about going to this establishment. So even though the reviews are good from years ago, I decided not to chance it. Check their website before you go and see if they list the prices and have a full menu. In this case I think it's a good idea to check their website and not take any individuals word for it. Things change all the time.

We visited this restaurant when it first opened and it was fantastic, I'm sad to say it has dramatically gone down hill since. Starting with the B health department rating on the door, that was a turnoff. We arrived at 5:00 specifically for the early bird specials advertised on their website but the server never mentioned the special at all until I asked and he begrudgingly brought us the menus for it. Then I was told I couldn't substitute Mac n cheese for my side dish because it only comes in a family size serving but it read clearly listed as a side dish for another Entree and it was listed with the other regular sides. So basically you can get Mac n cheese with a crab cake but not with a fish fillet....makes no sense. The portions were SMALL. I got one fillet of flounder (which was very watery) and fries, my husband and daughter got 5 shrimp and fries. We had water for drinks and the bill was $56 after tip. Not worth it at all! So sad to say that we won't be back. I'm sure there's better seafood to be found in a beach town.

Never write reviews but this place got everything right, drinks were great, food was incredible (tuna jasmine rice wow). They also have great live music every night. Thanks to all the staff, from the English guy!
