Luigi Trattoria, Myrtle Beach

Welcome to Luigi's Myrtle Beach Italian Restaurant. My name is Jimmy Arakas and I am the owner of Luigi's Restaurant located in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. I arrived in New York from Europe in 1952, when I was 13. I started washing dishes and have worked in restaurants ever since. From New York my family moved to Asheville, NC and eventually to Myrtle Beach. At 70 years-old, some would consider retiring, but that's not in my plans. My daughter Stacey and I run the day-to-day operations with the help of a strong management team and an executive chef, Chef Dorian Terova. Each day Terova offers veal, marsala dishes, chops, fresh grouper francese and a full array of traditional Italian and Mediterranean dishes. Our cozy and inviting restaurant feels like home, with a full service bar at the front, intimate booths and tables for larger parties, and in-season outdoor patio dining.
