I have only ever done the fish sandwiches with family. Really darn good. Quite large so a pretty fair value despite the price. The haluski side often runs out, especially during Lent.

This is one of those places you’d never go unless someone told you to. Tucked in a side entrance off Walnut Street, it’s definitely a dive and in an area where you wouldn’t expect to find good food. The food IS good though. Huge portions and SUPERCHEAPPRICES. They have a full bar — nothing fancy, but a good selection of standard bar goodies. Bar prices are also super cheap. I highly recommend the fish sandwich. It’s crunchy and delicious and a very unexpected treat. It does have way too much bread though — I end up tossing half the bun and just eating it that way. Deducted a star because although they have a separate entrance to get into the«non-smoking» restaurant side, chances are that you will leave the place smelling like an ashtray. The smoking bar and non-smoking restaurant are connected and the servers go in between the two a million times a day, so the dividing wall and swinging door are more for show than actual function.

Fish sandwiches and soups are great but still haven’t figured out why people like the Reubens so much. A lot of bread and not enough meat. Terrible

This little dive bar is a treasure. All I want to say is… OMG on their provolone sticks!!! The are made to order. They bread their own. Thick and crunchy. I love their liver and onions. I like their one cook that is tall she makes everything good. I always pass on their delicious fried fish and go for their baked moist flavorful fish. Size is smaller than fried but deliciously prepared

Hoot’s has awesome food in an unexpecting location. Most people that don’t already know about Hoot’s probably wouldn’t expect much, as it is in a diver bar but they have the best steak salad, reuben sandwich, fish sandwich &HOMEMADE fried appetizers in the area. You must give it a try!
