El Cerro Grande - MURRELLS INLET

In 1991 the first of 8 authentic Mexican restaurants opened in its doors in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Ricardo, Salvador, and Eriberto saw the need of not only offering a true taste of home, but an experience that came with it. Using only the freshest of ingredients with their homemade recipes brings their seasoned dishes to perfection. Tortilla chips and salsa came first and I ordered a side of queso. Tortilla chips were saltless, salsa good and queso was milky cheese sauce. Not worth the cost. Cowboy Chimichanga was a nicely stuffed jumbo flour tortilla with chicken, black beans and corn, lightly covered in cheese sauce. Lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole and seasoned rice on the side. Food was hot, flavorful and overall nicely presented. Interior was a combination of booths and tables and chairs on a colorful, festive tiled floor. Full service bar offered a line of libations and full screen TVs. Our server was friendly and handled our self created situation by moving to join friends at their table in another section.

The food was outstanding. The waiter was fantastic and had a great sense of humor. I highly recommend this place. I ordered the fajita burrito, and it was the best burrito I've ever tasted.

We eat there quite often, and it's consistently excellent. So far, it's the best restaurant we've found along the Grand Strand.

Absolutely delicious and authentic food! The staff is incredibly friendly and goes above and beyond to meet your needs, providing excellent service. There are great vegetarian options available as well. The freshly made chips and salsa are very crispy and taste amazing. The atmosphere is beautiful and cozy—an ideal setting for a meal!
