You may be wondering 1) what the hell I was doing in Rockville and 2) why I went to Hooters; if you were to ask me, I'd be all like, 1) don't worry about it and 2) WINGS. Also boobs. But mainly wings.
Except I didn't end up getting wings. You know, Hooters' wings are good and all, but sometimes I like to be adventurous (and believe me I know that it's a real gamble). So while my companions got themselves some wings, I went with the Texas Melt. It's like a patty melt on steroids.
We also got some deep-fried deliciousness on the side, namely the Lots-a-Tots, Fried PIckles, and fries with some sort of cheese sauce. Unfortunately the fried pickles didn't come with the sauce that usually accompanies them (they'd run out), so I got ranch instead. You should know that the fried pickles at Hooters are chips, not spears, which definitely works in their favor.
I was pleasantly surprised by the Texas Melt. The meat was cooked to the right temperature (I asked for medium because, dude, it's Hooters and I didn't know what to expect) and had a nice juiciness to it. It was not a bit dry nor bland; I was pleased. The fries aren't bad, but they could be better. The fries pickles are awesome, as was the wing that I sampled--but you already knew that, because eeeeveryone goes to Hooters for the wings, right?
The service? Would you expect anything less than friendly? Our server was small, super cute, and was definitely qualified to work there.
My first time going to Hooters and I had a horrible experience  at this location. I was attending a conference at a near by hotel and colleague suggested that we go for there for lunch.
Long story short....there were only a few people in the restaurant and it took 45 minutes for the food to arrive. When it did come the orders were wrong and she forgot to enter 1 person (it was only 4 of us) order.
We asked for the manger and he seemed not to care....no apologize...just okay and a look that said "what you want me to do"....
I guess if we were a group of men it would have been different...
Hooters could be a really nice restaurant if they would  totally redo the menu.  They need  a new food supplier.  Only thing  they serve thats even tolerable is the salad and thats not very good either.   Ill still visit once in a while because its a fun place to go and the girls are great.
Review Source:I have been going to the Rocville Hooters on and off for years. The service is hit or miss depends on the server (think of the kind of people being hired) but general it is pretty good and standard of the company's food. If there ever has been a problem say food wise they have always been FANTASTIC about taking care of their customers. Always remember that this is a Hooters and a don't expect five star class with places like this as the franchise and original restaurant were made with a purpose. Hooters Rockville II is one of the better in the area and the managers are friendly and caring. I miss the old location but this was a big step up for the restaurant. Keep in mind parking can be a little bit of a distance as the majority of the spots are behind the building.
Review Source:Yes, I'm a girl. And yes, I do *love* Hooters! It's true! I am actually a "regular" here at the Rockville location. I come in once a week for trivia night, wings, tots, and beer. How could I not give the place that has everything I love in one spot 5 stars?!
This particular Hooters is actually my favorite Hooters location out of all the ones I've been to - and I've been to most of the ones up and down the Mid-Atlantic. The girls who work here, as well as the management, are all very sweet and courteous. And when they see another girl come in, they are even nicer to you. Sometimes, if we get one of our regular waitresses, she'll even hang out at the table for a few minutes to catch up with us, which I love, because she can certainly go to other tables and flirt her tip up. The wings are also fantastic! We usually go with 50 pieces, and we especially love the Daytona ones! As others have said, the tots are incredible. I'm partial to the "Cheez Whiz" type sauce they use, and just ask for extra sour cream on top. It's probably several thousand calories, but they are well worth it! The pièce de résistance though, is their FRICKLES. That's right, fried pickles - chips, not spears - served with this tasty, tangy sauce. One order is never enough for our table of four, because we just can't stop snacking on them!
They also have incredible tv's, that are new, and no matter where you are sitting, you will have a great view of several of them. This is a great spot to catch games with your friends and gain a few pounds while you're doing that. On Wednesday nights they also host trivia, and quite a few people come out just for that, so if you're ever there on a Wednesday, look for me!
I love their wings! Â I always order mine the same way---hot, naked, fried hard, all flappers. Â Delicious!! Â The only downside is that they don't travel well AT ALL. Â I ordered some to go recently and by the time I got them home, all of the crispness was gone. Â Also, Hooters needs to come up with a new sauce. Â The "hot" isnt hot enough and "3 mile" is far too hot. Â And unfortunately, there's nothing in between. Â
I have to agree that the service at the Rockville location is pretty crappy. Â The girls at the bar appear to be more focused on chatting amongst themselves than they are on taking orders.
Ok, after the last visit which service-wise wasn't up to par, Alexis from corporate emailed me to see what happened? Wow, wasn't expecting anyone to contact me! Â Whatever was done, my friends and I have seen a dramatic improvement! Â It was like the Hooter's of years ago. Â The gals appeared to be having fun, which coincided with great service when I was there last week with a friend.
Nice greeting when we walked in, immediate acknowledgement by our server, and cold beers within 5 min at our table. Â Hmmm.... I did notice that those that were dressed more appropriately and not as though they hadn't showered all day were given better service? Â hint hint guys....if you smell like a sewer, I wouldn't go near you yet alone serve you promptly!
Thanks all! Â Keep it up!
One word.... BLAH!
I don't know how they operate, but when we walk in, no one greeted us, and there was no sign said "Seat your self". So we waited and waited, then few other people came in after us and we all stood there waited. Finally a waitress came over and told use to grab any seat. But later we saw other patron got seated by other waitress.
Than my friend presented a coupon for a "free appetizer with a drink purchase" to waitress, she start arguing the coupon is not good on an ice tea drink, she "think" is only good with an alcohol purchase. Ah, what do you with an ice tea? Take a bath with it?
I got a burger with curly fries. Wow. Some nasty food, fries were cold, buns were cold, and the patty didn't taste like beef at all. I never finished the meal. I know they are not famous for their food, but this is not even closed to worth eating.
A colleague of mine ordered 'hot wings' a few weeks ago and her wings came dry. Â I also ordered 'hot wings' recently, and they were also dry (as in no sauce). Â They were also greasier that someone's hair styled with Soul Glo.
Service there sucks. Â On other occasions, the food has been sub-par. Â No, I'm not bitter that the hot boobie girls wouldn't sit on my lap or fawn over me at the door; I got over that a few weeks ago. Â
I think as a whole, Hooters is going down-hill. Â In all fairness, this isn't the only hooters to almost give me food poisoning.
The food was OK at best. The wings were OK, but not enough to get excited about. We also had sliders, and they also were not special at all.
The girls, are not anything special either. They were mediocrely attractive, but none smiled or made eye contact. Very odd. My wife even commented on it.
The prices were far too high for the quality of food and staff.
The food is pretty good, I mean its hooters what do you expect lol just a bunch of fried good food, the service how ever SUCKS went with a group of freinds once every one split there bills I paid my half and went out for a smoke soon all my freinds came out and one of them said they had to pay for me because the waiter I already paid said I didnt pay and left, we got it taken care of but it was sketchy since I paid with cash there was some question asking, Also one time we went there sat down and no one came to help us for like 20 minutes so we just left. Overall food is good Service not so good but suit your self cmon its hooters lol.
Review Source:Hooters seems to be the hangout of my friends in the area, so I thought I would try it out.
The Hooters girls here are above-average at best. Â As servers, they're not bad, but it's clear they really, really don't like their job. Â The average server here is in their mid-to-late 20's. Â You might expect to see a guy or two working here during your time eating or drinking; however, they'll be in the kitchen (or they'll be the manager).
The food is typical for Hooters. Â The boneless wings were on the smaller side, although some bites were better than others. Â The 911 Sauce tasted like typical buffalo wing sauce -- not good for a place whose food specialty is wings. Â The Cajun Sauce also was lacking. Â However, the Daytona Sauce is to die for. Â It is absolutely perfect. Â I personally felt like the chicken sandwich was better than their chicken wings. Â What is their best menu item, though? Â Easy: their fried pickles. Â No contest. Â Their fried pickles might be some of the best in the DC area.
The interior is large and always clean. Â There's also dozens of tvs throughout the restaurant. Â That's not what most people are here for. Â They're here for the girls. Â They have posters EVERYWHERE. Â You can't walk in here without getting a constant reminder of how they sell sex.
While I did like some things about this place, I felt like it could be improved.
Say what you will, but you can get a good lunch served fast and affordable. I have been here off and on for years, but have to admit the last year I have found the staff to be much improved. Sure, it's a bit tacky, but they embrace it. Â If you're in a real hurry, sit at the bar. Stephie or Chabon are fast and will get you in and out fast!
Review Source:I have been to this Hooters a couple of times and I have to say that it's just average as far as Hooters goes. Â I really don't veer to much from the wings and curly fries which are both very good. Â The service can be good or bad although the last time I was there, the waitress was pretty attentive and only seemed to disappear when I was trying to pay the check. Â The girls are also not that great in the looks dept. and usually only one or two are worth more than a single glance. Â In the DC area, this is probably one of the better Hooters but that's still not saying much.
Review Source:Time and time again, I'm always super happy that we get attentive service despite our demographic (couples, single girls, guys that don't drink) and the way we order (one or two things at a time every 15 minutes, for at least an entire football game or two).
Sundays almost always have $3.50 Bud/BudLight specials that are perfect for getting sloppy for the games. Unfortunately, I almost always prefer to go to Buffalo Wild Wings for game-watching because their food is much better. BUT there is a lot to be said for a place that welcomes you with no judgement after having made a ridiculous drunken fool of yourself just a week before.
Everyone I know has been telling me how great Hooters is, so I finally caved and tried it. Â
I ordered a grilled chicken salad (yes, I know, you don't order a grilled chicken salad at Hooters, but I did). Â The chicken was rubbery, the dressing came in peel top containers, and the whole thing just lacked flavor. Â The others in my party weren't impressed with the food at this Hooters location either (and they didn't order a salad). Â
The service was decent, our waitress was attentive and friendly.
When the boss is away, the work buddies will play. Hooters has no specials, no happy hours, and no judgments. It has plenty of Blue Moon in pitchers, wings, curly fries and t.v. screens, and probably pictures of me stumbling back to work after a two hour lunch! The waitresses never mind, and won't tell your boss!!
Review Source:Its hooters.
The wings were o.k. Â I've had better at Hooters in OKC, and everywhere else in Florida. Â
I was excited that they had tator tots! Â I actually asked for 'sliced american' cheese on my tots instead of that cheese product sauce, and they obliged. Â Good deal. Â Came out piping hot, and melted all over the tots!
The girls are friendly, but not all that attentive. Â After going to school, and traveling Florida, I expect more from Hooter girls. Â They're a big reason we go there!
I give this particular HOOTERS a HUGE thumbs up due to the fact that they have the cleanest, nicest, most modern bathroom I've seen outside of a neiman marcus. Â To me thats damn important! Â
Tons of tvs, and its not overly loud that you can't hear yourself think (until they sing happy birthday).
I come to this location of Hooters for the wings - that is something Hooters does well! Services is A-Ok but they have always been busy every time I have been here. Guess that has to be expected here right?
Curly fries are good too!
So try out this place for wings, fries, and beer! If you calling is something vegetarian or helathy - go someplace else!
I have tried wings all over town and decided to see what the guys have been talking about all these years. Â I never really believed it when guys said they were coming here for the "wings."
Actually, the wings are pretty darn good! Â Lots of light, golden batter and not too greasy. Â The only thing I would ask is they kick up the spice. Â I ordered the super hot ones ("911"), added hot sauce and it was still a very mild flavor. Â Good flavor but very mild. Â They give you very little celery with the wings.
The service is very friendly. Â The theme is definitely there but not uncomfortably so. Â Lots of TV's.
Useful things to know about this Hooters is that it is open later than just about anything else in Rockville and they have free WiFi there.
I have a few friends who are regulars here. They spent a ton of money in this place and are well known. With that said, they still can't get any service in this establishment.
I have only joined them twice and each time, the service was slow, not overly friendly and the food just not good. Now, I do want to say that I love the wings, and that I have been to other locations also, but the rest of the Hooters menu is just no good. Everything is fried and nothing has any flavor. It is very clear that these are not execution issues but corporate's choice of products.
I will continue to visit Hooters near and far if it strikes my fancy, but wings are the only items I would recommend. And since these days they offer free WiFi, perhaps it will help you kill time while you wait for your good looking but probably useless waitress to make her rounds.
Okay, okay, so a review by a girl of the food at Hooters. Can you say: "irrelevant." Fair point. But still, how hard is it to have a few decent salads, a veggie burger, an app or two that is not fried, or a salad dressing not served in a foil-sealed plastic cup?
My friend and I hit Hooters after boxing at LA Boxing across the street. We were wrung out by the work out and famished. Met our men there, watched the Caps blow out Montreal, and just wanted some non-toxic fare. No luck. Â Cobb salad is "designed" with fried chicken. Apps include fried pickles, fried cheese, fried wings, and...french fries.
Ick. And the wings and fried stuff wasn't all that great anyway.
Oh. Yes. Our waitress was rail-thin and packed a heckuva rack. So maybe food is a completely gratuitous feature of the outing. But our bill came. Â $30/person with tip (for aforementioned server). Eh, next time I'll wait in line at Houstons.
I don't know how I haven't reviewed Hooters yet... I could have sworn I did; I've at here so many times. The new location in Rockville has all new LG plasma TVs and there are several pretty hot girls here at this location. More than I can say for the other ones I've been to... They'll often show UFC fights and always have sports games on.
The 911 wings here are on point. Sure they're bad for you (866 calories for 5 wings) but they're worth the unhealthiness! Breaded buffalo wings with ranch. Mmmmm! Curly fries are really good here, really salty. I like to keep my blood pressure high!... Lots of people like the fried pickles but I'm not a fan of pickles so it didn't work out for me. Another item you may want to order is the buffalo chicken sandwich with cheese and bacon. It can't be healthy for you... but hey, good food never is!
If you want to watch the game with a cheap special, then this is the place to do it!
The staff is cool and super helpful and the food is relatively cheap and quick.
Never really crowded, but always just busy enough to not feel dead.
Terrible date spot (unless she likes football), but a great place to hang with the guys on a Saturday or Sunday evening.
Oh yea, the food.... yeah, its edible.
I remember when Hooters used to have HOT girls working there. I'm sure it's a function of being in Rockville, but come on, they have to have some standards when hiring these girls. Â First off, the place is called Hooters.... not Raisins. Â Sexist? Sure, but hey, that's the entire mission of this place; to provide eye candy for guys while serving good food and a beer. Â Luckily for my friend and I, we sat at the bar, and the girl that worked there certainly fit the prototypical Hooters model.
Ok enought about the girls. Â The food. Â M.E.H. I don't love the wings here... the naked ones aren't bad, and the garlic sauce is actually pretty decent, but the blue cheese dressing sucks and the hot wings are subpar (I think I actually got the 911 sauce). Â The one thing that was surprisingly good, and super fat steez, was the Lots-o-Tots appetizer. Â It's tater tots with nacho cheese, bacon, sour cream, and scallions. Pretty freakin good actuallly.
The beer selection is booty, so I decided to go for a ketel and soda with olives. Â Also, since they've moved locations, I like the fact that they have new TVs with DirecTV Sunday Ticket package. Â
So in summation: Girls aren't as hot as they should be, food is average, service is good, and they have free wifi and the Sunday ticket. Â Will I go back? Sure, why not. Â So why two stars? It's a Hooters, hot girls are supposed to be working there. That's why.
I love HOOTERS!!! And the restaurant is ok too.
In my bad boy days, I used to frequent Hooters in LA all the time. The drinks and food were all good and reasonably priced. This Hooters, however, is the worst breastaurant... er, restaurant I have been too.
For starters, the service was John McCain slow. Probably because the Hooter girls were busy splashing water on themselves and on our table (true story). We were seated next to the soda machines and the girls started throwing water at each other and it got out of control and some of the water splashed on me and my food. I never thought I would hate two girls in wet shirts. But I do now, sadly.
I ordered the boneless chicken wings and a grey goose martini (I know, who orders a grey goose martini at Hooters???) The wings were an absolute disaster. It was coated with an inch thick layer of batter and the texture was really dry and hard. The grey goose martini was strong, but very bitter.
I had also ordered water and since it took forever for the water to arrive, I drank from it without looking at the cup. Halfway through the water, I noticed that the inside had some white mold-like substance attached inside the cup with 1 hair dangling inside. I almost puked and called the waitress. She thought it was super disgusting and showed all the hooter girls. No apology was given.
I don't like giving 1 stars out willy-nilly, so I decided to give it another try. The next time I went, there was a 2 hour wait!!! Turns out that that night, Hooters was showing a mixed martial arts fight (UFC 100) and that drew out all the steroid taking wannabe fighters to Hooters. This Hooters just doesn't like me.
Chicken Wings and Hooters were good the last time i can recall. however I haven't eaten here since 2002.

OKAY, I didn't want to do this but I feel like I have to. The moment I sat down, I thought: "Wow, this place definitely should be YELPed."
This was a month ago on a late Saturday night around 10:30PM. My friends and I were thinking of some place to eat. UNFORTUNATELY someone said Hooters. It was my boyfriend and I plus another couple. I didn't mind going until when we got there I was completely appalled!
We were standing in the front  waiting to be seated for a while until a Hooters girl (without greeting us) says, "Go ahead," giving us the okay to find a seat..? Some girl (understudy hostess?) walks behind us and sits us down then yells to a waitress in the corner. The waitress in the corner shakes her head and mouths, "NO" (because she used her invisible powers) as she continues to giggle with her other waitress friends (also invisible and not working). So the hostess sits us at another table, throws us our menus, and walks away. No one comes to us to take our drinks, say hello, or anything. I look around to my left at the lower tables and cups are empty, customers are looking for their service... it was ridiculous. Finally a waitress from the back licks the bbq sauce off her fingers and walks over to take our order (what happened to "all employees must wash their hands" rule?). She was extremely rude and rolled her eyes at us twice. I felt like I was on TV - like Boiling Point or something.
I wasn't sure what the problem was. Was it because we were couples? Was it because our boyfriends had girls with them? You're thinking why didn't we leave. I'm thinking the same thing... Â Lastly, all I could think about was being Asian (didn't want to use the race card, but I did and you'll see why later). When our food came out (ever so late), two older while males of a heavier-set guys came in with CAPS jerseys. And you betcha - they got royal treatment! They were greeted, spoken to, laughed with, touched (not that I wanted those bbq fingers to touch me...), and you got it - actual service.
Actual food: It was alright. First time trying fried pickles and they were good with the dipping sauce. We had loaded tots, but should have gone for the seasoned fries. My biggest problem I have with this experience was the service. I used to be a server and you make your money on tips. As a customer, I felt so ignored and invisible. I wanted to not only undertip her, but underpay.
So if you decide to go here: Keep your girlfriends at home and go out with just the guys, don't expect the wings to taste like heaven, and don't expect extremely great service.
OR: don't go here. =]
love the new renovations- finally some nice flat screen tvs. Â
the only thing i eat here is the wings- they hit the spot just right. Â SPICY GARLIC. Â yummy. Â their bbq chicken sandwich is pretty good too- nice thick piece of chicken and you can have it with any of the wing sauces: Â SPICY GARLIC. Â the girls are cute, & friendly. Â i come here all the time with my b/f and they do their quick smile & sweet talk.. Â but at the same time they're smart enough not to harass dudes accompanied by females & i appreciate that.
People say they come here for the wings. But honestly, IMHO, the wings are not really notable. I have a feeling they come for something else...
The guys got together here a few times earlier last year to watch 'Skins games (I miss those days they were a happy 6-2). You can get wings breaded or naked. The breaded wings are way too heavy for my liking. The naked wings are decent, though at times a bit dry. I get the "Philly" cheesesteak. It's kinda bad - yet at the same time decent enough that I always order it. Can't really explain why. My friends enjoy the fried pickles.
The place nickel and dimes their patrons. Extra charge for celery with your wings? Extra charge for blue cheese? It's the Hooter's way. Service is inconsistent. I've never had excellent service, but it ranges from decent to crappy. Overall an OK place to watch the hometown game.
Barely 3.
Update - HOOTERS MOVED TO WHERE THE COPELAND'S USED TO BE (near Fuddruckers). Â It's only a couple of blocks south, but don't head towards the Circuit City anymore.
Props to Diana for loving this place. Â Every time I suggest this place when the group is mixed, I definitely get a lot of "mixed looks" from the ladies. Â But I swear, the food is great....or should I say greasy? Â Well I guess great and greasy can be interchangeable when it comes to food.
3 people = 50 wings + 2-3 pitchers + carrots/celery for balance.
I definitely recommend the naked. Â Breaded can be a little too much.
I challenge ladies out there to give it a shot and don't judge a book by its skimpy-tight cover.
i love hooters.
the wings..
50 pieces...parmasean garlic sauce with cheese fries and a miller light.
what more can i ask for?
i can literally eat here everyday.
really. i am not kidding.
i had my birthday here.
thats how much i love it.
and there ARE hot girls that work here!!!
i swear
