Nice view but needs better management. We ordered 3 different item: chicken dip was tasty but chip were too hot to eat and dripping with grease. Chicken & shrimp were very greasy, fries were a mix of day old and freshly over cooked. Server had too large an area to effectively serve. Plenty of people walking around not enough serving customers. Advised server of concerns got shoulder shrug.. Paid check & left.

I'm usually excited about Hooter's but this place bites the big one. Upon walking in there is a sign that says to wait to be seated but no one was there to seat you. It was around 4 p.m. and the place wasn't busy but the tables were dirty. There were bees flying around, especially at the drink station where the tea and lemons are. Upon ordering I asked for iced tea and was given a watered down version of tea or slightly colored water. When I mentioned this I was told that was the way their tea was made and everyone complains about it but...oh well. I went with water. I like Hooter's, just not this one and won't be going back even if they give me a birthday coupon for free boneless wings, which by the way were only chicken nuggets.

I've been to a lot of Hooters and this is one of the best locations that I've seen. The atmosphere for outside dining is exceptional. It's right on the water and boats can come in from their long days and tie themselves up on the dock and come in for a drink. That was the coolest thing I had ever seen.



As for the food... it was a little less exceptional then other Hooters grills, but still tasty. The first time I went the wings were on the greasy side with only a little bit of flavor. The second time I went the wings were cooked perfectly and everything tasted great!



The ladies at this location aren't as personable as other Hooters location but that is to be expected in a tourist area where they probably get man-handled all the time. They don't have much of a sense of humor and they are lacking in the smarts department, but I guess that's not really why people go to Hooters is it. They are beautiful and tan and they can smile like the best of them, but talking is a whole different story. Overall this Hooters is a good choice just to see the great outdoors while watching the football games.
