I walked into an empty restaurant and passed a girl coming out of the bathroom just as I was going in. I was stopping over to this location to pick up lunch for the office. On our list was Hooters buffalo chicken salad, 24 buffalo shrimp, and deep fried pickles with a tea.
I returned and stood over by the empty greeters stand. I was passed by a gentleman who smiled and left. I don't think he worked there. I pulled out my phone to do a Yelp checkin and spotted a couple to the very back of the restaurant. I still didn't see any staff though.
The place was decorated like a Myrtle Beach sports bar, and even though empty, the atmosphere vibed fun. A young lady emerged through the interior sidedoor with a big smile and my bags of food. She rang my order and gave me a 10% Facebook page discount.
With 24 shrimp for around $20 I thought they were going to be huge. Not the case. They were medium size shrimp and enough for an adult and child to split without sides, but not two adults. The fried pickles were crispy with almost a cornbread type coating like you'd find on catfish. It was moist and salty inside and a little weird. That is until I dipped them in the accompanying spicy sauce. At that point they became awesome. There is more than enough for two adults to split unless you plan to make a meal of them. The salad appeared fresh and the portion was plentiful. You could specify the temperature and type of sauce you'd like on both the chicken and the shrimp.
I imagine the place livens up at night? There really should be a greeter at the stand by the door regardless. That was my first impression of the place, and with nothing else to draw from I would assume they were in trouble from the lack of patrons and hospitality. The food was quite good. I would absolutely do takeout again.
