Visited Hooters last Saturday night after the DBack game. I'm guessing it was 8:30 or 9 o'clock. We were STARVING and thirsty for a cold drink.
Scene.. 4 people walk up to a relatively empty Hooters.
"Table for 4 plz." Hostess: "it's going to be about 20 minutes, we are giving our kitchen time to get caught up."
"HUH?"
"Ok so can we sit at the bar?" Hostess: "as you can see the bar area is very crowded, and like I said, the kitchen is getting caught up"
Four confused people look over to a pretty empty bar area. Irritated.
"Fine, put us down for 4 please"
End scene.
We got a table around 10 minutes later. Lots of people walked up and turned around and left when they got the same speech. Prob not good for business not to seat people when you clearly have lots of tables.
Anyway food was ok, just munched on appetizers.
Nothing was special. Would have been 3 stars if not for our hostess experience.
