Not sure how to rate this one?! I don’t really come here for the food. The bar seems pretty standard with beer & boob… booze you can find anywhere. But I gotta admit the girls are sweet and the wings are actually good. The breasts, thighs & legs ain’t bad either… Lame pun I know, but its a breastaurant & I couldn’t help myself LOL

Updating my review as I have stopped by since my poor experiences in past years. Huge turn around. Pleasantly surprised with the positive changes they have put into the building.(Likely because the management is fearful of losing customers to a new tilted kilt nearby). Plenty of new beers and beer taps. Bar area has been cleaned and the tacky food hooks for ordering wings has been removed. Thankfully. Food is good… it’s hooters. Wings and fries. I was so happy to see that the racist bar hostess«Sam» that I noted in my past review had been fired. In her place are two/three wonderful happy and respectful young ladies. One in particular remembers my order when I stop by. I love that and tip her very well for her attention. Well done Hooters of Wayne. Much improved.

We’ll when in mood for wings I used to cross the bridge to this very tasty wing place that I Unilocal about so much. Now I got me a Jersey spot WING joint. Came back here to see if the wings were a one time cooked to tastiness. And they were awesome. Crunchy, tasty, and just the right amount of sauce. Thanks Hooters you saved me from crossing the bridge for wings

Let me start by saying I have given this place a few chances to change my mind. The wait staff lacks at this place. They don’t pay attention and you can go a whole meal without a drink. They like to sit and talk to each other and not pay attention when people are walking in. They are also very disorganized. Growing up I had been to other Hooters locations a few times and I really liked it. I am not sure if all Hooters have changed, however, the wings are nothing but grease and there is no flavor. That coupled with the wait staff makes this place a disaster. My suggestion would be not to waste your time and go to any one of the places up the road.

What a depressing place. Five of us stopped in here on a Saturday night only to kill an hour or so because they were showing the UFC fight.(We wanted to go to 381 Grill and Bar around the corner for the fight, but they were closed for a private party until showtime). We got one round of drinks, 20 breaded mild wings, and an order of the server’s attitude. She had the personality of a rattlesnake. It’s as if she was mad that we didn’t order a lot of food or stay for the whole fight. She basically threw the check at us, then went and sat back down at the table next to ours to chat up what appeared to her boyfriend, or perhaps a regular customer. Between the not-so-nice customer service and the families strolling in with their baby carriages and all to watch the fight, we couldn’t get back to 381 soon enough.

Waited over 10 minutes for a waitress to show up at our table. Beer tasted like ass. Sent it back. Wings were soggy. Over all a crappy experience. Will not be back.

DONOTEATHERE… I REPEATDONOTEATHERE if you have an hour for lunch. Waited over an hour for 10 wings and fries. No joke… the kitchen is by far the slowest on the east coast.

As an ex hooters girl, I know what is to be expected of you. We walked in and saw the sign wait to be seated(now some hooters you can sit where ever you’d like). We waited and the hostess came over with a mediocre attitude. She sat us even though it looked like she was confused as where to put us. We waited 10 mins and no one came to introduce themselves to tell us they would be our server. I happen to know that you’re suppose to great your customer in 2 mins and have their first drinks to them in 5 mins. I went over to the manager and said we’ve been waiting 10 mins and no one has acknowledged us. He just said sorry and sent a girl over. She said sorry I didn’t see you guys I was waiting on tables that weren’t mine. I saw her she was sitting with other tables,(which is fine but seriously pay attention). Her name was Rikki. She wasn’t very bright. She brought us our order and she said can I get you anything else, «I said yes the fries» she said, «oh yeah, I couldn’t carry them with everything.» No she forgot because if that was me bringing the food I’d say here’s your order and I’ll be right back with the fries. She also never once told us her name. I only knew because of the tab. Other girls and the hostess saw that we hadn’t been waited on when we arrived, you’d think they find the girl who was suppose to wait on us. Help each other out of she really was busy. But it wasn’t busy at all. The manager never came over to apologize again. Guess he thought it was acceptable to wait 10 mins before we were even acknowledged. If I was a hooters secret shopper she would have gotten many points taken off. We will definitely not be going back. And hooters is my favorite place to go. We only went to this one because we were buying a car near by.

Went here for the first one ever. Taken by some friends. The wings were the worst wings I’ve ever had ever. The waitress.(Alexis/Lexi) was the absolute worst service I have ever had. She was extremely rude and snarky. She had a rude comment/comeback for everything I had to say or ask. It was extremely obvious too.

I only give this 3 stars because of the wait staff, which I guess is what you can expect out of this establishment. It is the same at nearly EVERY Hooters location. With that being said I do visit this location frequently and the food is generally very good. I have never had a bad experience with the quality of their food. Best wings and prices by far of any other wing place. Please upgrade your standards on your hiring processes. I get what the restaurant stands for, but your staff selection is almost a turn off for wanting to go to your restaurant. It’s quite unpleasant at times.

I love the fact that when you walk in all the girls are lined up to greet you at the door — that is a big bonus! However I was slightly disappointed at the food itself. we ordered a lot .the boneless wings were quite disappointing .they are basically just over priced balls of batter and sauce and I would pass on those again next time. The wings themselves were delicious however and I would definitely go back for those! we also ordered the fried pickles and we could tell they were sitting around too long because they were not hot when they came to the table. The lure of having the girls wait on you in skimpy outfits is still a draw as a hetero male. All in all 3 stars. I will be back but only for the wings and girls. :-)

Open disclosure: Went as a reluctant patron to support a friend who was performing at one of their comedy nights. I have had friends who try to defend their patronage of Hooters by saying it is a «nice atmosphere with great wings.» So, just rolling with what they are saying… The wings were TERRIBLE. Super small and tasted like they were brined in saltwater. I have heard before that some places purposefully make their food extra salty so you would spend more money on drinks, but the boneless wings were at such a level of sodium overdrive that I find it hard to believe it would be so blatantly intentional. The regular buffalo wings were soggy, no zest or crunch, with totally bland meat(although, at least, they were not dry). The girls who work here do not look happy. Some of them spent a lot of time sitting down to chat with male patrons(maybe to earn a larger tip?). Just made me uncomfortable how unhappy they were. I guess it didn’t help the headliner of the comedy show kept making sexual jokes at their expense. I literally watched the faces of the waitresses fall as they were made repeatedly the blunt of crude sex jokes. Maybe one can say they should expect it since they work at Hooters, but I don’t know… I still felt sad for them. The whole place felt like a soulless, gutted version of the worst Applebee’s you can find.

Ive stepped foot in here twice in my life, second time today. This review is solely placed on the pulled pork sandwich so dont get all fussy with me if you love the hooties! I was really craving pulled pork so i said ah what the hell ill try it. Cant be that bad. Uh ok sweetie, the pork wasn’t pulled there was mini pieces of chopped up pork with sizzled onions in between a fudruckers sandwich bread. Curly fries were loaded with pepper(fle fle how we say in my neck of the woods); just how i like em!!! and Slaw was as plain as wonder bread.(you feel me?) back to the pork. Ive tried many types of quality bbq so my standards were not quite met with this sandwich. I ended up chucking half of it bc i got turned off after a good 5 bites. Guess thats what i get for going to hooters If you want quality bbq go to NYC and youll be satisfied. Im embarrassed to say i walked in here lol. the end.

I’m pretty new to the NJ area and this is the first Hooters(in NJ) that I have been to. The girls are cute and have nice booties… Hey! Let’s face it! Some of the Hooters experience is about the girls, right? OK. I’ve only ordered wings at this place and I have to say… They SUCK! They are so skimpy and tiny! I’ve never seen buffalo wings that small. There’s barely any meat on them. Very disappointed, after ordering 20 wings, and finishing 20 wings… then having to go to another restaurant cause I’m still hungry is a major disappointment! See my profile photo… I’m not some fat-ass that eats half the menu with a diet coke. But, the wings were VERY Skimpy. Go to Chili’s Grill & Bar — I went to them just the other day, and their wings were WAY better than these!

So I’ve been to this one before and to me, it’s just a regular Hooters. Beer, wings, scantily clad women. Nothing too out of the ordinary. My roommates and I usually go for the Unlimited Wing special because why not? I mean really, unlimited wings. That’s my ideal date. The wings were good as always and I also had a Tropical LIT on the side because it looked fruity enough for me. I love LITs and this had more juice than alcohol in it. I mean it wasn’t bad of course, just not my favorite thing I’ve had in terms of an alcoholic drink. Overall, not a bad place to go if you just want some wings, beer, and sports. That’s just about it. Nothing really stuck out to me.

Good wingz… unlimited on Thursdays. Unlimited comes with curly fries. Pretty packed on football nights, especially when you have the Giants and Derek Jeter’s last game. The wings are still the go to around the area. Overall a very fun atmosphere!

I’ve always been a fan for this franchise. It’s not necessarily because of the scantily clad women, though. Don’t’ get me wrong, that does help when you have the right staff but I come here mainly for the wings and the sports. I’d say that probably makes up for 95% of the reason I go to their locations. This time around I had their new spicy garlic flavor along with my usual daytona sauce. Always get the skin crispy too. The daytona sauce never lets me down so I’ll go on the the other flavor. That new spicy garlic sauce is something else. I loved it but it was a doozie of a spice. I handled it just fine because I love spicy food but my friends who aren’t as used to it, suffered a little after a couple of bites. Therefore, I only recommend that flavor to the daring. My group also got an order of fried pickles for the table which is never a bad decision to me. The waitress was friendly as with all of the waitresses that usually work at the franchise but this one was a bit forgetful about us at times. Love coming here and I know I’m going to find myself back here but I definitely have had better wings. However, that doesn’t take away the fact that I still enjoy the wings here.
