Hooters pioneered the "Breastaurant" concept and now must live with the cultural backlash in the not so roaring, boring '20's as numerous underperforming locations are being closed. Unfortunately, as I've found on numerous occasions their attractive wait staff can't divert your attention long enough to rationalize what is essentially Applebee's in Hot Pants. Burgers, wings, beers and a salad named after some guy named Caesar. Nothing is truly bad but you won't remember it five minutes after you leave. Frankly there's better people watching on the beach. Caesar loves his Speedo. Three ordinary stars. read more

Great location right off 287. Walked in and sat at the bar. I think you just sit wherever you want. Felt really bad for my waitress/bartender Liz. She was the only one working and taking care of everyone at the bar and tables. Hopefully they can get at least another to help out. Ordered hooters original style wings and chips and queso. Really do love the wings great flavor and crunch. And the chips and queso love the peppers in the cheese sauce gives it great flavor and heat. I do like this location feels very modern and updated. Though they need someone to come in and work on their screens I asked to watch some anime on the big screen but she said it was stuck in the picture all day. Maybe next time in. I think I'll try a burger next. If want a nice location for wings and a drink. Definitely stop on by. My only recommendations at the moment are to get someone else on the floor to help out and work on their screens. I'll update in the future. read more

Not a Hooters any more. Place was empty with one gal working. I expected to see a zombie crawl out from under a table. Sunday 1 o'clock they had one NFL game and then fishing on the other tv's. Thank goodness I was just there for takeout, might be frightening. read more

Hooters - Me and the waitress - Chicken Wings Near Me - Somerset, New Jersey

Absolute gem in the middle of New Jersey. I must admit we were skeptical to come in to watch the finals basketball ball because we were expecting to wait but we were greeted immediately! The girls were lovely, the place looks like it was recently renovated with wood floors and seating is plentiful. For me the wings have always been fresh with the perfect amount of sauce and crunch. The bar offers a wide selection and they offer happy hour specials until 7pm. Be sure to read the fine print on wings/beers read more

Less sexiest crap and better food. I mean, why are women dressing like this now? And for mediocre food? Only ate there because we were stuck at the adjoining hotel. read more

If I could give half stars I would give a 3 1/2. The service is extremely slow. I would hate to go there on a busy night. The wings are the main attraction & they are delicious. I will definitely return but I would likely sit at the bar or get take out. read more

This is my favorite hooters to visit in the area. We're always seated quickly and served even faster. We rarely wait over 20 minutes for the food. Their spicy garlic sauce is my favorite to get and their cheese curly fries never disappoint. While it can get loud sometimes, it's a perfect place to stop by to enjoy a tasty meal. read more

Hooters - Mango hooterade - Chicken Wings Near Me - Somerset, New Jersey

Decided to try this spot out since me and my co-workers were looking for a new spot for food and drinks and it was everything we expected it to be for it being a Hooters! We just wanted some wings, beers and a place to chat it up and this place delivered just that! We started with a pitcher of Sam Adams but since the keg had tapped they brought us what they had and we opted for a pitcher of Blue Moon Instead. For wings, we ended up getting 3 orders of the 6 pieces Bone in to share between us which the flavors were Daytona Beach, Medium Buffalo and the Dry Rub Lemon Pepper along with some curly fries and tater tots. I know I know what you're thinking! All these carbs to start 2022 and the answer is yess!! lol The girls agreed that the favorite was the Lemon Pepper because it had the most flavor followed by the Daytona Beach and the the Medium Buffalo. The color of the Medium Buffalo definitely threw us off a bit since they were orange and funny enough the Daytona Beach were the reddish color we were expecting. But overall, they were good and so were both fry orders. I did like how nicely the place was decorated, looked super clean and the tables appeared to be spaced out. I must say that Zianny how waitress was amazing and we loved her Costa Rican accent! We definitely plan on returning soon! read more

Disgusting!!! Slow slow service Food was gross and cold empty to be that slow wrong food .. absolutely disgusting read more

If I could give this place 0 starts I would!!! I walked in with 6 teenagers after practice for a quick bite after practice, the place was pretty EMPTY except for 1 table and 2 men at a bar. The woman was looking as if she couldn't figure out how to seat us and after about 5 mins I said well since it empty we can take a booth. Should have known from there!! Horrible waitress who barely knew the menu and options!! Our food was cold when it came out, she parked herself on the chair and ignored us the whole time!!! We asked another waitress for refills and to go container and napkins and she "passed" along the information and then our person came back she was annoyed!! The nerve of her . The boys couldn't believe how rude they were to us and we had to walk over for our check too since she obviously couldn't do her job!!! I called the manager and he was absolutely "shocked" but offered nothing. Spend your money anywhere else $200 for nothing but trash. read more

The place is an unmitigated disaster. I can't believe I'm giving it a second star. The grumpy owner/manager berated the waitstaff on the floor. The food took forever to come in a restaurant to hosted no more than five parties, three of which were drinking perched at the bar. Our waitress forgot to bring out our pretzel appetizer because by the time it came out, the nuggets were rock hard and the beer 'sauce' was a congealed mass. To be fair she did quickly bring out a replacement that was somewhat more palatable. The chicken caesar salad came out with no chicken. The wings smelled of old oil. The chicken on a chicken sandwich was stringy and dry. On the plus side, the fountain drinks were good as were the curly fries and the tater tots were flawless. The waitress was very nice, but wasn't exactly a shining example of efficiency. read more

This establishment was so mediocre. Our service was bad. The girl that served us brought our meals out so spread out???? I got my salad at least 10 minutes before my friends meals were brought out. When the other got her meal, we still waited for 5 more for the last. She said the kitchen was "crazy". (We sat in front of the kitchen and they were dancing and doing nothing) There was a total of 7 tables AT MOST. When we were eating there were 5 tables and a full bar. But it's a Friday night? So is it not taken into account that it could possibly be busy? We weren't given silverware or napkins. I'm confused. Also skimpy portions. But the fries were good. read more

You know what your getting when you come to Hooters. This hooters is no different/better or worse than any other hooters. The wings were good and the fries were okay. Service was alright- waitresses can be seen sitting at tables on their phones. I would go back when I'm in the mood for wings. read more

*Protip: check in on Yelp for 10% off food orders! Monday nights All You Can Eat wings for $14.99 for original or naked wings and $12.99 for boneless is such a great deal (especially after a late night Spin class...dangerous? probably...)!! First order comes with 15 wings/3 flavors then each subsequent refill is 6 wings/2 flavors. The best part? It comes with curly fries!! Original wings are breaded and very filling, has an extra crunch to it. Naked wings are more like your average Buffalo Wild Wings type of texture. For the AYCE, they allow you to mix and match the original wings and naked wings with each new order so my recommendation is to start with the naked wings and then with the next refill, try the original breaded wings which tends to be heavier! My favorite flavor is the parmesan garlic and the chipotle honey!! For someone who can't take super spicy things, the chipotle honey had just the perfect kick. The location is attached to the Clarion Hotel. Very spacious area with plenty of tv's around the room to watch sports games. Service took a bit of time - but considering they were making 60+ wings for the table, I'm not complaining. The place is super empty Monday nights around 10pm. read more

A lot of space. Nice place to watch games/sports. Tv's all over the place. Food is good too.

This is probably my 3rd time to this location and this time I felt bad they were so under staffed that hostess was waiting on tables. It wasn't super busy but we had to wait a bit for service and our food. We ordered up our usual. Curly fries, onion rings, and tots and we ordered 40 wings. It was happy hour 4-7 on Friday and you get 20 wings for the price of 10. Great deal . Also $1 off draft beers. We definitely got defeated but we enjoyed our meal. Our waitress/ hostess Marimar was definitely hustling considering they were under staffed. They offer up some pretty good deals during the week and we have always liked the wings here. read more

Despite some other reviews, I didn't have much problem here. Saturday nite and they had a few waitresses on duty as well as the manager. When I checked into yelp it showed me a 10% off thing but most businesses usually aren't aware of the deal. This one said they pretty much discontinued discount programs last year but they went ahead and honored this one. It wasn't much anyway. read more

I have been there for take out during Covid-19. The woman who is the only person there is very rude and its hard to get past her accent. The food is good and I want to support the business during this terrible time in our lives...however she really needs an attitude adjustment!! You would think at tmes like this they would try to keep customers..good luck with that. read more

It's hooters, I get what I expect when I go there. It's not 5 star dining but it's worth 5 stars for what the provide and what I expect. Good wings, French fries, and beer. Sometimes you get less than desirable service but the managers are more than happy to make up for a sub-par experience. Stop being so snotty in the reviews, manage your expectations. This is hooters not Ruth Chris. read more

First time at this Hooters. This is a different style setting. Not as many tv's or high tables. But still a nice Hooters..playing rock and roll on this Friday night. Not crowded at all but it's still early. This is connected to the Clarion Hotel and right off 287. Easy to get to and friendly staff. Makes this a great place for the best breaded wings read more

Staff barely speak English. There is no allergen information. It's 2022!! How do you have no allergen info for your menu?????? Took FOREVER to be waited on to begin with. Never again. read more

I wish I could give them a negative review! Since we came in the service was horrible. It took forever for the server to come greet us and then finally when the server came and took our drink order it took at least 40 mins to get our drink. In the meantime she still didn't even take our food order. After taking our food order it took almost an hour for us to get our food. And then our food came out wrong. I sent my food back 3 times for them to get it right and they still didn't. I eventually ended up sending it back and not eating dinner. This is how the service is here! And then when we asked to speak to a manager, she told our server to deliver a message saying she's too busy to come talk to us. When this place is practically empty!!! So forget the service, the manager sucks! So just be prepared to get bad service and not be able to speak to a manager when you do want to complain!! And they served beer to us twice in a broken glass. And we did let her know the first time it happened!! read more

Manager is not a good person. Food service extremely slow. No other person here helps each other. When the food order Bell rings for 3 times no Buddy goes and gets the food while there are 4 people in the restaurant . This place has took a turn for the worst it's a shame read more

Been here several time. Poor customer service, food quality, and cleanliness. Management don't care about customer feedback.

My first-ever visit to a Hooters did not go well. Slow service on an empty night, forgotten and then cold food order, poor value and a dirty, dingy venue. There have to be better choices, including fasting. In their defense, maybe they try harder or staff more when its busy, but I won't stick around to find out. read more

This has got to be the worst Hooters I've ever been to. Ranch and Blue Cheese sauces both tasted expired. Beer was flat and when I asked for a bottle they were out. Bartender was more engaged with her cell than her bar. Waited a good 15-20 mins for my food and then another 15-20 for my tab. This Hooters is part of some raggedy hotel it's not even a stand alone building. They need to get rid of this location cause it does not do the "experience" any justice. read more

The manager is very very unprofessional, he is very condescending to the servers in front of customers. I've witnessed this on three different occasions. One Sunday he even came down very hard on a bartender and made the whole room uncomfortable. Food is great, but the management is by farr unprofessional read more

Awesome sauce! Great drink specials. Friendly service. Killer wings. Great burger. Try the lunch special or Monday modelos! I will come here every Monday forever. read more

Hooters - Chicken Wings Near Me - Somerset, New Jersey

This Hooters location is different from what a traditional Hooters is like. You don't feel like you're in a traditional Hooters. It has a modern look and feel to it. The plates you get are silver and made of metal (not the usual wood-looking ones) and the cups are neon orange and ugly as hell. If you come here expecting to sit at the bar to watch a game, try somewhere else. The bar is a tad small. If you don't care about that you can sit at any table to watch whatever. There are many TV's all over the walls. It was around 45-50 degrees the day I went so it was super nice out. But inside all the employees were wearing sweatshirts. It wasn't chilly nor cold inside. They should at least be wearing long sleeves underneath their uniform not hoodies. Now, the wings here are smaller than other Hooters locations and they could have been covered in more sauce. I think they just drizzled the sauce on top of the wings instead of tossing them in a bowl. When we asked our waitress about the grilled wings she stated that they didn't have them yet but outside on the windows they advertised grilled wings. That doesn't make sense. From a management point of view, that is misleading and they shouldn't have been advertised. We also got some appetizers which were as good as expected. I should also point out that my father ordered iced tea but it was more like water with a hint of tea flavor. When we told our waitress about it and she gladly brought out a new one but it was nothing different so we sent it back. Needless to say, we won't be back to this location. P.S. They didn't have Hooters pens! read more

Went there Monday July 3. Hardly anyone in the place. Bartender was concerned mostly about her friends at table. Bill came to 36 bucks and plastic was put on table to pay. When the bartender took it I felt relieved that this place wouldn't be like others that charge the foolish 3 % cover charge for their whining about paying service fees to Visa. Not their fault they say.... I find it insulting. Anyway - the bartender rang things thru and I mentioned I was relieved to not have to pay the silly fee. She said - oh you do it's here - was extremely small and a bummer for me to see they had charged the 1.21 extra for their troubles. I told her I have cash and if she could - please take the charge and void it out - whatever she needed to do to cancel it, and I'll pay the cash. Matter of principle to me. She said - oh I can't it's way too late. So I said - ok no problem... and the tip which would've been 18% became 8%. I thanked her and left - not to return. These restaurants were complaining they lost business during covid - but were bailed out big time. Too bad they got greedy sand are joining forces to screw the customers. Easy fix as to how to get that fee amnt back - pul back on tip. read more

We chose this Hooters because we needed a new location to watch the football game on Sunday. The waitress was super friendly and helpful with any questions we had about the menu and the food was actually good. I have had other Hooters experiences that have completely grossed me out but I felt very comfortable bringing my grandparents here for a few hours on football Sunday. I would recommend this Hooters as a sports bar to really anyone and I will probably be back this Sunday with my grandparents again. read more

Hooters - Chicken Wings Near Me - Somerset, New Jersey

Weve been coming here for a couple years. Usually catch happy hour. They had a yueng and wing special.... $10 for 20 wings and $1 off draft yuengling..... couldnt beat it with a stick. HOWEVER.......NOW SOME GENIUS CHANGED THAT. Keep in mind this place is NEVER more than 30% full. With that in mind instead of doing a promotion that will bring in more customers.... they; - made the happy hour special "boneless" wings only (little kids eat boneless wings) - if you order a burger you get 2 sides of beans and have to pay extra for fries. These are 2 things I found on this, my last, trip to hooters. We will not be returning.... there are a hundred other places that serve wings and run great promos....... not to mention Hooters novelty USED to be hot waitresses. The girls here are solid 4s at best. Buh bye hooters. read more

This place is awful. This is the forth time Iv been here with bad service, Wrong orders, and it taking forever to get your orders. Do not waste your time go to a different hooters. I gave up and ordered the wings I wanted just to get them and that was so long ago I don't even want them. I wish I could give a zero star review. This is the last time I will come here. I wish I had not given this place for tries. Avoid at all costs. read more

Awful service. Went in for lunch on a Saturday and the place was pretty empty. Somehow it still took forever for us to get anything - water, beer, food, check, change... There were never more than 24 people in the dining area during the hour+ that we were twiddling our thumbs waiting for 2 orders of ten piece wings and curly fries. Go elsewhere unless you are in zero rush with no plans. read more

So it's like a poor man's gentleman's club..scantily clad women serving food instead of dancing..but yeah OK. The wing...the real reason we were there (really, its true, I don't mean it like "playboy...the interviews are great" kinda thing)...but back to the wings...Garlic Parmesan were awesome..the best we had that night. The traditional (hot, both naked and breaded) were good. Now this is a shocker...the bacon wrapped wings...not impressive...and this coming from a guy that will eat anything with bacon. The bacon wings are deep fried but the issue is that they were probably fried for so long the bacon turned into dried spackle...rendering it flavorless and just leaving a wing as the bacon cracked and crumbled off. read more

Some of the worst wings I've ever had. No flavor and super soggy. Had to get something else to get instead.

Terrible! The only lady that works there at the moment is incredibly rude and does not understand the meaning of cleanliness and contactless during COVID. I didn't know it was possible to have terrible service during takeout but I was proved wrong. Hooters has been going downhill for years and it was really apparent today. read more
