Hooters

I have visited Tacoma Hooters a few times and I have seen improvements in the selection of food and the quality. I recommend the barbecue chicken or the fish tacos. The wait staff is usually friendly and cheerful and do a good job of dealing with our bad jokes. Football season can be crowded so if you like to be surrounded with large crowds, visit the Tacoma location. The beer selection is much better and there is more craft beer then just 5 years ago. Thank you to the hooter girls for a pleasant atmosphere.

Friendly service with a lot of sweet deals… wings were pretty good and great choice of beer on tap

Bad service, bad food. Waste of time and money. Wings are exceptionally bad, over fried and salty. Ordered lemonade, it had like 2 kg of sugar in it. Waiters think that the fact that they look sexy will make everything ok about this place.

This Hooters was the worst that I have encountered purely based on the service. The waitresses argued on who would serve us (right in front of us) because neither of them wanted to work. Then when we requested a booth, they argued and said they couldn’t. There was plenty available. When we sat down, we looked over the menus, ordered fried pickles and two drinks. Food and drink were okay. When we went to leave, we asked to see if we could get one of the black hooters shirt in large for my husband… the girl didn’t want to search for his size, so she told us they didn’t have it. We were right there. She wouldn’t even sift through them.
Lazy girls with little boobs and okay food. Not what you’d expect from a HOOTERS!

We stopped by here today for lunch and they weren’t that busy. We put in our orders, which included an appetizer. After forty five minutes we still not had gotten our food, so my fiancé went up to the waitress to ask to get our food to go because we had a funeral to get to. A few minutes later the manager came over and apologized to us and told us that the bill was on him. We never complained about the service or anything, just asked for our food to be boxed up so we could get on the road. Not only was the customer service amazing, the food was also delicious. I appreciate the service and don’t hold the kitchen’s small mistake against them. I will definitely be back when I have more time. Thanks!

It’s Hooters… Dirty old men come in to see young ladies serve them in revealing outfits. The menu is nothing spectacular, it is a sports bar so you should liking to watch sports on TV is almost a must. Note too that the service does vary from table to table as dirty old men frequent this place that flirt with these young ladies. I would not suggest taking a first date here or your spouse here with the expectations of an awesome experience. 3 Star rating is for fairness, the customers are the biggest problem in my experience as they will often times be borderline harassing.

Pretty cool if you go in at happy hour… lost points with me when they took the wings off the appetizer menu… I really do like there wings… but they are over priced. best bet is to hit Tuesday nights at 10 for half price brews and all you can eat wings for 12.99.other than that. ill pass

I was sorely disappointed. The service was poor, food was crappy and prices were expensive. Hooters has done an excellent job marketing themselves. Now perhaps they need to work on keeping the customer happy. Got a glass from a promo that said «Hooters makes you happy» and all I could think of was «yeah hooters makes you happy, when you LEAVE!»

I will never come here again, way too expensive and the service was terribly awful. The waitresses tried to talk to me and flirt, but I said I’m here to make gains, not friends.

Apparently you can’t order beer or food while waiting for a table. Manager told the bartenders not to serve us because we weren’t seated… Outstanding customer service.

Sadly to say my experience didn’t get better. I kind of felt sorry for the girls working in there. The two male managers kind of wondered around while the girls tried managing the door, their tables, the bar, and running the food. The kitchen was terribly slow. The chili cheese fries happened to be the worst thing that I have ever had in my life. The cheese looked like it had curdled and they were uneatable. I would have told a manager but I only saw my server once after I got my food and I needed to go because it had already taken an hour to get an order of wings and chili cheese fries. Save your money… go to wing stop or BWWs. The service is horrible, the food is worse… the only thing that is good is being able to watch UFC. Hooters you need to hire new managers or bring in someone to fix the problem in this hooters.

I’ve gone to Hooters plenty of times with my boyfriend. The food is way overpriced and drinks. It’s better to go on Tuesdays for unlimited wings either bone in or out for like 13.99 I think? I do like the wings though, I prefer bone in. I like buffalo, spicy garlic, daytona sauce. I also love the shrimp in honey Chipotle sauce, very good. Breaded or not. I had the mozzarella sticks for an appetizer and only received 5 sticks for 6.99. way over expensive it was better than store bought or mcdonalds but still. Also I tried the fried pickles, didn’t really like it. You have to have an inquire taste for it. The bowl of chili they have is absolutely delicious I HATE chili but I ate theirs. It was good. Will I come back here? Yes when I have a crave for Hooters.

It was the first time for him and only my 2^nd time since my last visit 3 years ago. We walked in and 3 girls were standing up front and no one said hi to us. Once someone finally greeted us we were seated right away and our server came up to us right away.
The fried pickles were amazing but our burgers tasted like cardboard. I asked for mine rare and it came out with no pink whatsoever. Very low quality food.
Our waters had been needing refilling for a while and rather at most restaurants where the water is automatically re filled at half empty, we were ASKED, while still eating our meals, if we wanted a refill. It was obvious we needed a refill as our cups were on the edge of the table and had been for about 5 minutes.
When we were finished eating our subpar meals, our dishes sat on the table for about 15 minutes before the server came back to check on us. Many wait staff walked by and also ignored our dishes.
When the server came back to our table of dirty dishes, i was baffled by her response to us. She simply threw her hands up and asked in an unsure voice «Was there anything else i can do for you guys» We didnt know if we were supposed to ask for the dishes to be cleared or whatnot so we just asked for the check because it was appaarent we were finished. She then asked us again if «we were sure» there wasnt anything else we needed. We were very nice but confused why she was persistent on this question and really just needed the check so we again, answered no.
Our server then walked away without clearing the dishes and returned with our check. We gave her our card and she walked away again without taking even our appetizer plate, let alone the high stack of trash and empty dinner plates.
Something that urked me was that next to our table there was a server talking about her tips ans how excited she was that her table left so she could collect them. As a server myself, i know this is incredibly distasteful and frowned upon.
The final weird thing we saw was as we left. The 2 hosts up front stood with their arms crossed and hardly aknowledged us.
This was a bad first impression for us and i dont see any reason for us to return. We were not expecting 5 star service as we wanted a burger and wing joint but it was difficult being served by teenage girls who made it clear they were only there for tips and had no idea what they were doing. Our server was nice but its apparent that training is not something they worry about at hooters.

Woooooo hooooo! Yee haw! Mmmm mmmm! These are all things you’ll catch me saying when I eat at Hooters.
Look I’m not a chicken wing expert (not sure they even exist where I’m from…) and I’m no beer expert (a Budweiser will always be my favorite American beer) BUT I am an expert in having a good time. And that’s what Hooters is all about. Maybe their wings aren’t gourmet. Maybe they don’t have a great selection of IPAs. But HOT DAMN they know how to give you a good time.
The girlies who work here are so nice and if I didn’t know better, I’d say they genuinely like the gross old men like me! They check off «the three F’s of service» Fast, Friendly, and Frickin’ hot!!! LOL
Stop in, but don’t forget to call up uncle arnie first! First round’s on me. :D

First time eating here. I had the fish tacos they were very well proportioned and delicious. The girls/​staff were very friendly and provided awesome service. It was my 17yr olds bday and the girls sang a song to him while he danced. They all seemed to have a good time. I felt it was a kid friendly facility as well as a grab a beer, food and watch sports on the tv.

So, my husband and I went here a few days ago to grab some wings. I had been wanting to try Hooters for a while now, and we decided since Buffalo Wild Wings was PACKED, that we would go here. Let me tell you, the wings were aweful. The service? Those ladies couldn’t figure out who was waiting on our table, quite annoying watching them get close to catty. Lastly, the way our server kept talking to us, like WE were slow or something, I found quite rude. The only thing slow there was the 45 minute wait for our food… AFTER they messed it up in the first place.
Never returning.

I love Hooters! When I travel south, I always make a stop at the Tacoma Hooters. I come for wings. The food is great, which is why I am giving it 4 stars. The service isn’t as consistent though. It is hit or miss in terms of service. There are a few servers who really do a great job, and there are a few that aren’t very good. Sadly, that brings down the service levels if you visit a restaurant often.
This is a great location for watching sports on TV. The atmosphere is welcoming, and it can get loud. Loud? It’s a Hooters, and of course it can get loud! I also like coming to this location, as it is usually full of men and women that serve our country. Yes, I always have to thank a few of them as I leave the restaurant. Thanks to those who serve!
Hooters has expanded its wing sauce offerings! This was a welcoming to me, as I like to consider myself a wing pro. I will be visiting again soon, and I am hopeful that I can raise the star level. Again, the food is consistent and good. The service needs to be consistent too.

On this vist things were better than last. I think I had a waitress in training and it helped that I was here at opening time so it was dead. I did the all you can eat Tuesday special. Can never go wrong with 3 mile sauce.
In the end service was better than last time. I’m assuming that it being empty really helped. So I moved it from 2 stars to 3 stars this trip.

I’m not sure why this place is considered a family restaurant but I’m just going to go with it. We went on a Tuesday during happy hour and all you can eat wings. The wings are huge and they come out pretty fast so no complaints on that end. The only problem is that when you order them with the flavor (such as garlic parmesan) they are drenched in sauce that it’s almost too flavorful to eat but when you order them plain with a side of sauce, the wings are so hot to dip that the sauce falls off. Lol. I can’t win.
The only real complaint I would have are their mixed drinks. I ordered a strawberry lemondrop under the assumption that they would use a higher end vodka such as goose or kettle one, but they used McCorrmicks and still charged me at a higher rate. I don’t know of any other places that do that.

Coming from Florida, and the home of the original Hooters, I’ve been craving these wings for a long time.
And surprisingly, this place did not disappoint. They have an updated menu with a few different sauce flavors, but they were awesome nonetheless.
The 45 drive south from Seattle was worth it. We’ll be back when we have our next Hooters craving.
