    We are visiting for the weekend this was the 3rd stop trying to find somewhere to eat.. hooters is no stranger to us. So we settled on it. they sat us quickly served us without a long wait. It is a very bust location. Even managers jump in a help.

    What a terrible experience, food was AWFUL!! I ordered 20 wings with the Garlic Abanero sauce to go. When i got home, the wings were plane, no sauce, uncooked, dry and cold. The juicy picture on their menu, has nothing to do with the cardboard wings they serve you. I tried to cook them, but they just got worse. I ended up giving them to the dogs. By the way, i pay for Ranch Dressing for 20 wings, look at what they supplied. Don't go there!!! Specially when Wild Buffalo Wings is just a few miles away. This place is awful, overpriced and undervalued.

    Yikes. Building is dirty, managers stand around and flirt with waitresses, smells like BO, and the food was awful. Our waitress, Iesha, was nothing short of mean. She made our dinner very uncomfortable and awkward. Won’t ever be going back to hooters when Twin Peaks is just down the road.

    I USE to Love coming here to eat, but Now I won't waste my time or money here!! I came with my husband to eat and we were told we could have any open table (outside). So we found a table and then waited 15 mins for a waitress to take our order.... Nothing.. Several waitress saw us and NOTHING! Finally I had to stop a waitress who was ignoring us and tell her we needed service.. She said she would get us "our" waitress! So then we waited another 15 mins!!! This time my husband went up to the bar and told the bartender that we need service and we are being ignored!! After that we got service,but it just got worse!! Our waitress was just .... I won't say the words and she was training a new girl. We asked for our drinks and didn't get our drinks till after our food came! I didn't enjoy our food or drinks! Our waitress didn't want to serve our table from what we felt!! But she was Very helpful with the table next to ours that were All males!! At the end she pretty much threw her girl in training at us and she apologized several times, but the damage was already done. Paid our bill , NO TIP! We talked to the manager,but didn't feel like it mattered.. Save your money and Go Somewhere else! Like I said ...I use Love coming here, but the Service and Employees suck!!!!

    My favorite place for wings!! Food is always consistent, this location is way better than west side! Girls are super nice, Becca is my favorite server!!! Sit in her section, she is very attentive! Our drinks never got lower than half way empty before she was over asking if we needed a refill. Prices are amazing, especially during happy hour!!!!

    The food and experience there was amazing. I enjoyed a delicious hand mad chelada by the bartender, Anna. The oysters on the half shell were as good as ever, and I'm glad they are back on the menu after a long absence. Also enjoyed the buffalo shrimp, as their shrimp is some of the best in Albuquerque. Today felt like a little mini vacation break

    Went yesterday to have some dinner with some friends we had raelyn as our server. The food took 45 plus min you could tell our food sat in the window and just got cold. It was so hot in the restaurant our friends baby got sick and had to leave. Then one order was completely incorrect, the waters came out with no ice. Terrible dinner not worth the time or the money at all. Wings were terrible so small for the price. Wing stop is better. Won’t be coming back

    Went to hooters for dinner by myself. Ate half of my texas toast burger and ordered a Dr Pepper. Went to the restroom,came back to the table and everything was cleaned ! Half of burger gone! Drink gone!. I still had to pay the full price for my dinner.... Hooters on san mateo is NOT A PLACE TO GO BY YOURSELF. WESTSIDE HOOTERS IS BETTER BY FAR, but it wss closer to my place.

    Beer options suck, all the ones that are normally compared to water.. The wings have literally gotten to the size of pinky fingers so I'd recommend boneless if you want any meat.. (thanks Karen's.. #proGMO)

    Wow never have I had bad service like I did yesterday. First we waited 20 minutes for one margarita and a beer which while we waited we saw 2 other tables who were sat after us got their drinks before us. Second our waitress rushed us to order. We waited 20 or so minutes for our food which our all was missing my burger was cold and my fries were the chewiest I have ever had any fry. The manager was no help and was rude as can be….. I will not go to that location ever again. I used to go this location multiple times and not once have service as bad as the last…..

    Worst experience ever was treated very poorly by our server janelle . We were ignored and then charged for our drinks we didnt touch .we waited for our order to be taken. Wouldn't recommend this location to anyone other servers appeared to be helping their guests we were treated as if we were a burden to this server . Poor service .if I could do no stars I would

    We go to this restaurant because normally it's great service I am there As a single mom with a 10 year old child. My daughter needed to go to the bathroom. As most parents would, I'm not gonna let my 10 year old child go to the bathroom alone. So I got Up and went with Her to the bathroom. There was other waitresses that had seen us in there within the 5 minutes of us being in the bathroom, they threw away our fresh order and thought we dined in dashed. The facts that they categorize Me as some broke a**Person who's going to steal food with my child is beyond me. Then when I get back to my table, not 1 person Will walk up and talk to us. And then when they do, they say they're ordering our food. And they're frustrated with me because I'm upset because they just threw away my food. Then the individual Add the audacity to accuse me of lying and saying. I didn't have wings when he threw them all away and threw away. My daughter's wings. I am so frustrated by the service I received tonight. We will never come back to this place ever again. And I will highly recommend against it. Because obviously they have something against single Mother's.

    Thank You to ladies Nicole and Paige! They give me the best service! The drinks are always fresh and cold! And the food is always Hott! I Love sitting in their section. All the Ladies are very friendly!

    Went there with relatives for the Veterans Day specials. We'll after we placed our orders the wait person returned and informed us that her manager had informed her that we couldn't get the order unless we all ordered drinks! None of this was mentioned in their advertisement.. won't be returning to Hooter's. 👎

  • 3/5 Aaron Sandoval G. 8 months ago on Google
    The wings were not warm... they were not fresh... they were Chewy like they had been sitting under a heat lamp for a long while. Our server was super sweet and Friendly!! She chatted with us for a good while and made experience very enjoyable.

  • 2/5 Claire B. 8 months ago on Google
    I was appalled at the behavior of some of other guests and the permissiveness of management. Multiple sets of parents were letting their children run around the restaurant like it was a playground. The parents did nothing to control the loud and disruptive behavior from their children, they just drank beer. I have never seen such poor etiquette in a restaurant. To bring children to Hooters at nine pm at night is already inappropriate, and to allow children to run around the restaurant and disturb the experience of other guests is downright trashy. Will not be back. Amazing service from Miss Taylor, food was delicious. However the shrieking kids running around the restaurant ruined the experience. Sad!

  • 3/5 Krystal K. 7 months ago on Google
    While my food was really good... the service was actually awful. I ordered 6 naked wings and had to ask for them after our whole party got their food. We were a group of 15 but separate checks, each check was 2-6 people and they charged us a tip with our bill. Im a damn good tipper but i want the option of what I'm going to tip... (to clarify i added an additional 10 to the 9 i was charged)

    Ordered on Hooters app for game day. Place was packed but they got my order to me, made fresh, within less than 10 minutes of arrival. Wings were great!

  • 3/5 Jerm E. 4 months ago on Google
    Usually a great place for food and drinks. But first time that our visit was not pleasant. Service and waiting on food for 2 hrs was not what we expected. But I will stoll return. Maybe just an off. Night.

  • 5/5 Ashiihi B. 1 year ago on Google
    We were at buffalo wild wings but we're ignored for about 40 minutes. We left and came here and we're told a possible 30 minute wait . Didn't mind that but we got started faster and JORDAN'S personal service was awesome!!!!. Thank you filling out Tony's and keeping us happy . We will always come back here.. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

  • 1/5 Giana M. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was not that great and service wasn’t great either. Took about 25 minutes till they took our order. Then server spilled our drink everywhere which took another 15 minutes to clean up then finally our order was taken. Over charged us on one meal that included fries but did not give us fries. My fried pickles was over cooked and taste like chips and burnt. It will be a long time or never coming back. Hooters at this location has declined with Food, Service and atmosphere so much. I always enjoyed eating here but the experience with my past few visits has been horrible. Save your money and go eat somewhere else!

    Had to ask if Thursday night football would be playing. (yes} 5min after game started I had to ask if they would change the channel. Then I asked if there would be sound to the game. Employee said "doubt it" and walled off. I also asked for a menu and was told I had to scan a qr code. My phone died before I got there and that's why I came for the game so I had no menu. I ordered from memory, 20 regular wings and was told I can only have one sauce cuz it gets confusing if you order different flavors.... Thanks! I left!!! When did they get so lazy???

  • 5/5 Allen C. 1 year ago on Google
    What can I say I'm a Hooter's connoisseur whenever I get into a town that has one I have to stop my favorite there is the Original wings Spicy garlic extra wet. Food came out fantastic even got a side of the ghost pepper dipping sauce waitress and her trainee did a fantastic job tens all the way around

    The girls r really pretty but none of them do their jobs I seen 1 girl working her butt of behind the bar serving food doing everything while the other girls just stood around with who looks like the (boss) or (owner.) I felt so bad for the girl that was working cuz she did her job very while, she had very good customer service but none of the other girls there did nothing bit stand around n look pretty.

  • 5/5 d b. 1 year ago on Google
    Honestly not one to leave reviews but everytime I’d been here prior service was mediocre at best! Now I only request Rizzo, she’s exceptional!!! She’s always super fast and on it, I’m never left without a refill or anything!! She’s literally the prettiest, funniest, and sweetest! Super personable! You better go up there and get one of her!!

  • 5/5 Kevin W. 1 year ago on Google

    My son and I luv Hooters, we recently went to Hooters on San Mateo and I'll tell you all it was an amazing great experience, our waitress was totally awesome and beautiful. Thank You Keep Up The Good Work

  • 5/5 Bodie R. 1 year ago on Google
    It was my first time here and I had a great time! The food is pretty good and the drinks are great. Would love to come here again. Edit: came back about a month later now and this time around they didn't accept my ID. They were able to the first time. Make it make sense? It wasn't a vertical so I don't see what the issue is. I understand though because I don't want the establishment to get in trouble. Maybe the waitress the first time didn't know. Idk. Made me kinda sad so I left early.
