The Hooters in Metairie and Houma think is run by the same group and from I what I can tell, they do a great job.

Agree. This should change.

It’s a sports restaurant, and clearly the formula works.

I haven't been there in years, but the Hooters in Metairie's parking lot is always full of cars. So I th think that they must do pretty good.


My daughter got out of school early yesterday and wanted Pinera, I saw Hooters on Vets was packed out.

Though I don’t get there as often as Skillet, Hooters is still on my restaurant rotation.

Daytonas as solid. Beers are cold.

The first Hooters calendar came out in 1986.

It featured Lynne Austin. She became the centerfold in Playboy magazine shortly after. July, 1986.

That's your Hooters fact of the day.

The one closest to me caters to the biker crowd - baws on harleys and brothers on crotch rockets. It seems like a few days a week - typically Wed. night and Sunday afternoon, they all cruise the strip making noise on their bikes then gather at Hooters for wings and beer. Their parking lot is generally empty or packed with bikes.

Crappy wings and fat girls in t-shirts 2 sizes too small apparently appeal to more people than you would think.

1- Breaded wings are for kids and fatties. Naked spicy garlic thrown back on the grill Daytona style after tossing is fricking tasty and the only way to go.

2- Talent level is shite but every now and then the one on Siegen shows promise. Still don't go enough to care about those poor souls anyway. Just want some wings, beer and maybe watch a sporting event.

3- Twin Peaks in Houston off of 10 in the Energy Corridor is always packed, serves a pretty good Old Fashioned and the only thing anyone should order food wise is Mom's Pot roast. Haven't been to the one off Siegen in 10 years so I have no idea if it is worth a shite.

They hire ugly chicks now and their wings suck



In BR they dont have the talent pool they used to have to pick from. All the girls they used to get can go work at places like walkons, sullivans, or any of the sports bars to get better tips and not dress like a hooters girl. Their clientele also isnt trashy arse people that are rude and dont tip.

Also, you can get wings all over the place now and Hooters doesnt actually have a true buffalo sauce.

Their daytona wings are very good though

The girls there aren’t what they used to be but neither is the average American female so it’s all relative
