    10/10 Experience! Dinoland in Myrtle Beach is such an amazing place! The food and drinks were absolutely delicious, and the presentation of everything looked so good — you can tell they really take pride in what they serve. The environment is super fun and perfect for kids, with so many cute decorations and cool robot dinosaurs all around! The customer service was great too — everyone was friendly and made sure we had a good time. My family and I had such a wonderful experience, and we’ll definitely be coming back again. I’ll be telling everyone I know to check it out!

    My 4 year old son absolutely loved it. He said it was 100% (in his words). Our server was incredible (my son calls her stitch because she was dressed as stitch). The experience was amazing and the food was really good as well. Our favorite was the dragon egg.

    The food was great and the atmosphere alone and service was top notch. Our waitress was Kaya and she is beyond amazing. So down to earth and outgoing personality and extremely polite. The animatronics were great and they even had a person in a dinosaur costume come out to each table. It was so relaxing and had a great time. My friend ordered the caveman steak which was 2lbs and enjoyed it very much that she ate the entire thing. The milkshakes especially the strawberry cheesecake one was wonderful. Thank you Kaya.

    I'm gonna be honest, the prices for the food was shocking at first...but once the food got to the table, it made sense. HUGE portions and a free dino egg desert bowl and talk about delicious! My 2 year old loves dinosaurs and this is only her 2nd time at the beach so we wanted to surprise her with a trip here. She loved the anamatronic dinosaurs, thought the baby dinosaur was absolutely adorable and fell in love with the walking dino! The one thing that made this place absolutely worth it, was Kaya. She was so kind and polite, and paid extra attention to my child. Listened to every single word she had to say, responded to her when she rambled on about dinosaurs, walked around the restaurant with her and listen to my girl talk about dinosaurs, and was so attentive and kind when my baby dropped her lemonade. Kaya made sure to reassure her that it was okay that she spilt her drink and got her a fresh one. She even brought us to go drinks without us asking! It was so cool to see another East Tennessee native so far away. Thank you so much Kaya from the bottom of this mama's heart for being so good to my daughter, you'll truly never know how much that meant to me! Please please if your ever in town, stop by and give this place a chance. You will NOT be disappointed!

    Fantastic meal with Elizabeth taking great care of us! Perfect place to celebrate a birthday. Drinks we on point. The food and speciality drinks were all delicious and I can't recommend the Caveman 2lb steak any higher. The "flame" treatment is worth it every time!

    This is such a wonderful place for families of dinosaur lovers. Our server Monica was exceptional. She brought a baby dinosaur to our table and let the kids interact with him. She was a real treat. She is formed us of all the items in the menu, of all the displays to enjoy, of the interaction times for a large raptor “Blue” that comes around, she made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. She was a real treat herself. It was a very memorable and enjoyable experience. I recommend it for all dinosaur lovers and most kids. There were a few very small children that got scared, but the staff and “Blue” were so very gentle in approaching them. It was such a wonderful experience and Monica was such an amazing delight.
