Hooters

[RichardMango]

Who likes Hooters restaurants? I really like some of their food along with nostalgia for me. Who else?

 

[Angler]

A big NO.

What do you not like about it?

 

[Done-it-again]

Nope. There wings went to shit many many years ago.

 

[DWC]

Actually liked their wings. Used to hit Hooters every Monday with the work group for lunch.

This thread was a let down

 

[Outdrive1]

I like the name!

 

[JFMFG]

I enjoy the wings. Haven’t been in a few years though.

 

[RVRKID]

Went way downhill, I like Twin Peaks and their beer is way more cold. We just need one by us.

Used to be my Thursday night dinner stop when I worked in Honolulu, HI.
Dozen wings, dinner salad and some beer.
18 months of working in Hawaii and the same dinner on Thursday nights and I even played on their co-ed softball team. That was fun.

 

[Angler]

What do you not like about it?

Food is not good, beer is never cold enough.
I can look at hooters anywhere, I want good food and a cold beer when I go out.
I stop going to BJs for the same reasons.

If you are ever in Glendale or Pasadena, look up Hot Wings Cafe.

Hooters used to have a decent Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich. I haven't had one in awhile, so take it with a grain of salt.

If we’re comparing uniforms, Tilted Kilt had the best hands down.

We have one in Thousand Oaks, haven't been yet, I need to take my 13yo son and make him feel awkward

Yes, yes you do.

 

[Smupser]

I love their fries with cheese sauce

Careful with that. I always went after older women, until I was mid 20s or so. When I was 17 I was dating a 26 yr old for almost 2 months before she asked how old I was. The look on her face was priceless.

Maybe take him here

I thought this was about the missing guy. @hootersled

Hooters talent

 

[n2otoofast4u]

Twin Peaks FTW!

I was going to post this exact post.
I haven't been to one in years but they used to have an actual "real" philly cheese steak.

Hooters used to be good 15 years ago. That one in MoVal was GAF. I mean real bad. Wife and I went in there about a year ago before they closed and it was real bad. Used to go there back in the day. It’s actually in Riverside but to me…everything east of the 215 is MoVal
Temecula Tilted Kilt has some nice looking food there

 

[Roosky01]

Hooters up till about 2001 was the bomb. Since then not so much…

 

[C_J_J_C]

I do like Hooters but I stopped going years ago and I don't know why. I like the atmosphere, the view, and the food but I don't go.
Guess who is going to Hooters soon.

 

[DarkHorseRacing]

Hooters draws from local talent. Some talent is worse than other areas. Last few Hooter I've been in, there was neither hooters or anyone worth staring at. Food is meh, to me its always been the servers that drew people in, no one probably cared much what their food looked like or tasted like if the servers were smoking themselves.

My old River neighbor used to bring out ladies from that location TK. Good times. To bad he sold his place.

1995. Just after turning 21.

⁹Used to hit our local Hooters often.
Ended up married to one of my favorite waitresses. Still married to her.

 

[Sleek-Jet]

Haven't been to one in a couple of years but their Philly Cheese Steak was always good and the fried pickles. I never was a wings fan so don't really care if they aren't very good. Their salad dressing was always on point, and they had a tasty cobb salad.

My daughter loved going there because she'd be the center of all attention from the waitresses, I didn't mind it either.

 

[Ultra...Good]

Wait, Hooters served food?

 

[TPC]

The 12/13 year old boys in the neighborhood would be BMX riding/digging for a few hours during school summer vacation, then jump on the Metrolink and head from Simi to the Burbank Hooters.

Hooters was (is still?) a few minute walk away from the station.
At 14 in college Maynard & room mates did the same from the USC dorms.

Tit men.
Wife was always quiet about all that. Observant but permissive.
European attitude - doesn't get worked up, nothing to get worked up over.
Wonder what was going thru her mind.

I was sort of a Hooters fan until they stopped paying the agreed to sponsorship of Hendrick Motorsports/Chase Elliott.

I'm sure corporate sponsors want more for their money than some kid riding on his dads name and finishing down by 20th pretty consistently and hardly winning.

Not everyone gets to sponsor winners like the rest of the Hendrick team drivers.

Show me on the doll where Chase Elliot hurt you

 

[COCA COLA COWBOY]

The chicken wings are ok, but only because my family likes the 911 or 3 Mile Island or whatever. Before I stopped drinking, I liked that place because they have Pizza Port Chronic Ale on tap and it was ice ice cold.

My wife was the master of the hula. Could pour pitchers of beer while hulaing for days.
She's got a birthday coming up. I think I'll get her one.
Frank's Red mixed with some other spices is what their wing sauce used to be. The Buffalo shrimp was good too.
Heard dome pretty gross stories about their wings. Like customers getting fried and sauced chicken heads served and ones with feathers still.

The wife worked at the original one in Florida before transferring schools to CU in Colorado. She could have moved on to a cooperate position after graduating but wanted nothing to do with it.

 

[TPC]

Our girls like Nuclear Weapons Grade Hot Sauce.
They order the wings spicy at Hooters. 'Cept the Wifie.

Franks is my favorite and the strongest here in the house.
Family burns through a pint every couple weeks.
Goes good with everything.

Burbank Hooters closed down a few years ago. I dated one of the waitresses there for a couple years. She worked at the Hollywood store as well. That location had FANTASTIC talent. It was good when I would visit her at work too. A lot of my friends wanted to come with me because the girls would always come over and sit with us when it was slow since I was one of the more popular girl's boyfriend.

I'm not even sure where a Hooters is anymore? So many have closed the last few years.

I'm down for a guy's trip to Twin Peaks. Its fun making him turn beat red. lol!

Never, ever been.....

I'm not even remotely sure how you came up with your conclusion that I'm a Chase Elliott fan, I guess math isn't your strong suit.

He actually replied to me. I think he's just mad I pointed out the facts.

Amazon Prime thinks a bit different Multi million, multi year package. "Finishing down by 20th pretty consistently." Say what?! Average 2024 finish 11.7, 2023 13.7 (missed 6 races, injury), 2022 12.4. You must have thought I was talking about Bubba Wallace.

Did you mean "not" ?

 

[Warlock1]

I was just down at the one in Yuma. I still love the wings and the shrimp.
