Our waitress passed by our table more than once while our drinks were empty. Multitasking wasn’t her strong suit. She was pleasant, but really needs to pay attention when passing by tables with empty drink glasses. We had to flag her down to ask for refills

We were seated promptly, but experienced a few irregularities. My martini, ordered up with an olive, had no olive. The oysters on the half shell were not properly shucked and were still attached to the shell (and served without tableware so I could not finish the shucking with a cocktail fork). They were also served without crackers. My wife’s crab legs were not cracked and served only with a cocktail fork. After 3 requests, we did finally get a claw cracker. And my blackened grouper sandwich was quite good but again served without a knife so I was unable to eat it open faced as I would have preferred. I suppose if you like wings and strictly finger food, this may be your kind of place. However, I prefer food served with appropriate condiments and silverware. Service was fine otherwise and I strongly suspect this was a management and training oversight , however I probably won’t be back.

We sat outside because it was so cold in the restaurant. Went to Hooters to buy a gift certificate and have dinner. Very disappointed. Took a friend that had never been. Bad experience. Burgers too done. Never got water we asked for. Sent back fries due to temperature being "cold" and got new fries that were luke warm. They said due to the size of the fries they get cold easily. :( Bad bad excuse.

Confusion at front desk upon check in. Most tables were empty, we had a reservation but we waited a good 10 minutes. I don’t think the staff was trained well.

Apparently, the reservation did not matter. We went with 7 adults. They “only had a narrow bench table that would be lucky to seat 7 kids. We had to wait nearly an hour before we were seated. No apologies. It is extremely loud in there. Our server, Kayla, was the only bright spot. She was excellent. The food was not very good( not even for a Hooters. The wing were dripping with grease when they came out. The tater tots were cold. The “ naked’ wings were good. Overall, we would not return. If we did, we certainly wouldn’t use Open Table. They seemed annoyed we actually had a reservation.

Our server was great super friendly. Bar service waiting for mixed drinks was slow, our server came back twice apologizing that she was waiting on the bar to make the drinks. Food was good, crazy that you get charged $1.09 for a blue cheese to go with the wings! Need to re-train hostess that they are the first face people see when they come in, they both did not greet us and looked miserable.

The wings were awesome. Our drinks were never empty. The noise level wasn't to much for us to carry on a conversation. I would recommend Hooters!
