They have very nice chiken wings.... Since we went there at night 10 PM, i did not find much croud. I felt Hooter is over hiped for hooter girls, but under hiped for food. I found food is more interesting. Had good time.

Absolutely the worst Hooters I've ever been to. Took about 15 minutes to have a waitress take our order. (No it was not busy). Waited 45 minutes for shrimp, grilled cheese and some boneless wings with fries and cheese. Finally received the food and the fries were overcooked and crunchy. The cheese they gave me was a brick and you hold the cup upside down and nothing would drip out. The wings were also overcooked and very tough to chew through. Next time I am in town I will NOT visit your restuarant. I will tell all my family and friends in the are to not show up there. I did not even receive and apology from anyone at this establishment

Service was not up to par. not even close... I got a burger and I asked for it medium, it was well done and took forever. Was there with 3 other people, so four of us total, and the waitress said she couldn't split checks. I don't know what restaurant DOESN'T split checks. Needless to say I paid cash to a guy I didn't really know that well (friend of a friend) because the waitress can't use the computer system effectively. Slow service and/or no service for quite some time...beer glasses empty means time for a refill in all languages, or at least ask if they are needed.... Our waitress passed by our table multiple times while our glasses remained empty for 5-10 minutes. If it wasn't for the manager stepping up, we probably would be still waiting for our bill. There is a reason the rest of the Hooters in MN closed, and I don't see this one in business much longer either if they keep up this type of service.

Went to Hooters at the MOA last night with my husband and kids and as always was very good. They recently updated their menu, so we tried something new - I had a Chicken Strip Sandwich (which like it sounds, is just their chicken strips on a bun). It is my new favorite meal there! My husband got a Speedway Sandwich, which is grilled chicken with cheese and Bacon and a special sauce. He was also very impressed. With the new menu a lot of the sandwiches come with fries now - so that is very good not having to order fries separately. The kids got their usual - chicken strips or hamburgers. As usual in the evenings here, it was pretty busy, waited for about 5 minutes to get a table. Got to sit overlooking the Nickelodeon Universe which was really cool. Our waitress, Christine, was such a cutie ;) and very sweet. She even caught me looking at her boobs and just smiled lol. She was taking really good care of us all night, never ran out of anything and was going out of her way to help - even tearing off napkins and giving them to us. Generally I would say the Hooters at MOA is a 4 star, but she gave them an extra star tonight. If your at the Mall of America - stop by, we really like this Hooters.

I'm not sure what everyone is complaining about when they review [this] Hooters. Too high of standards? maybe. The 3 mile island sauce is the best, and we come out of our way to eat here a few times a year. I have no other reason to venture to the mall of america than to eat Hooters wings and sample Rybecki cheese. The service is always fast and friendly. I mean, what are these reviewers thinking? Deep fried wings in hot sauce with scantily clad women serving food to us. We aren't dining out at Mccormick's and Schmick's for pete's sake! I won't write about a specific experience, because they are generally all the same. I've never had a complaint about the service or the food. The servers are very friendly and if they happen to forget something (heaven forbid) they will get it for you right away when you remind them. I really, truly do not understand the 1 star ratings. I'm a little flabbergasted. And no, I'm not trailer trash, I'm not a lesbian, and I'm not morbidly obese. I just really like their wings.

The main thing i remember about this hooters is long legs, and long blonde hair. They must grow like trees too cause every female in the place had the same characteristics whether waitress or patron. So not much diversity here, all waitresses are pretty much a carbon copy of one another, but a well done copy. You might find an occasional brunette working an odd shift, but it seems the locals flock to them and really aren't worth being served by. So if you're an out-of-towner definitely stop by cause minnesota seems to be the only place where tall leggy blondes are considered average. The food is avg to slightly above avg, keeping this place from five stars. You get what you get from hooters, sauce isn't too spicy but definitely not too bland.

Great service attentive waitress. She fit the hooters build. All the staff was good looking. Food was good no complaints. This is a better than average Hooters. By far this is where I want to spend my time at the mall of america not shopping. Nice location on the top floor tucked away from all the shopping.

Went there with my fiance as we stood at the entrance over 5 mins waiting to be seated . Not one waitress or hostess paid attention to us until I finally went over to the bar and requested to be seated. The waitress just said "um OK, just sit over there" basically shooing us off. As soon as we sat OURSELVES down another couple came in and without hesitation the hostess came over and sat them offered menu ect. We didn't even receive a menu. So we politely got up and left. Service is terrible depending on what your RACE is. Yes I pulled the RACE card. If I could I would give them NO STARS.... I suggest the management look into that. My fiance and I went over to Sky Deck instead and was greeted as soon as we walked into the entrance, seated and wanted on immediately. I will never eat or suggest to anyone to eat at that particular Hooters location in the Mall of America!

WORST WINGS EVER! Walked out after eating 1 wing. Not only were they bad but I waited 40minutes for them to arrive when I was sitting at the bar. You want amazing wings in Minneapolis, go to Runyon's.

Wings and ambience was great. Tvs in just the right spot and a friendly staff.

Waitress accommodated by putting the hockey on even!

I have been to several Hooters and this one is by far the worst one of the bunch. Their food was OK but nothing to cross the street for. The service was the bare minimum and at least our waitress seemed like she could not care less about being there. In the end I would of rather went to the food court than here.

As one can expect, strolling through the Mall of America for several hours, one can really build an appetite for an old fella like myself. I happened to be on the fourth floor near the arcade room (you gotta check that place out, I spent almost $60 on skeeball, just like when I was a young rascal. Except back then, you could play 20 games for less than a buck!). If you walk down the east corridor about a quarter mile you get to Hooters. My attention was caught by the cabin-esque decor and plethora of television sets. The Blue Jays game was on, they got trounced by the Tigers. Go Jays! Anyhoo, just my luck, I saw a godsend on the menu - hot wings! I had a hankering for some hot wings after all that gaming and strolling I did (also for a hot bath to soothe my new hip that was installed about a week or two ago...). My focus drifted away from the game and even the wings because I noticed just about the darnedest thing - the broads that were serving myself and the other folk. I could just about see the full extent of their bosoms and rumps! Holy Joseph, Michael, and Peter!!! What would the Lord our savior think if he stumbled upon a franchise like Hooters? The gall of this establishment to flaunt sinful values upon the commonfolk like myself! Good riddance! But Hell, damn good wings...

YAWN! Hooters really needs to invest in their brand. My BF and I went there for dinner one Friday night around 9 pm and we watched the staff. All the girls were so apathetic towards their guests...I no working for tips there...they just wear the outfit and likely get a increased tip because their chicken cutlet cleavage is out there to see. It doesn't bother me how they are dressed, but at least pretend like you are having fun. You don't need to flirt, but find a happy medium that you can at least interact with the guests in a manner that is somewhat fun. The food was mediocre. The fries were cold, the sauce we ordered specially (honey mustard) didn't come with the fried pickles like we asked... We scored for the HH price, but other than that...i would go hit up BWW over this place if you are looking for wings.

Met up with friends here last night. The service was astounding. Ordered a vodka gimlet and the following questions proceeded: "what's that? one shot or two shots? Oh, we ran out of rocks glasses (how does that happen, the restaurant wasn't THAT busy), so do you want it in a highball glass?". Another round later, she comes back and was making it very obvious that the restaurant was closing within the hour and a half - she then interrupts our conversations, and barks for us to pass our dinner plates to her. We didn't hear her and she barks again: "Pass. The. Plates. It's look like they are rotting." .... Very bizarre experience. Will not willingly return again.

The chicken was pretty good. The boobs were a bit better. I took my 3 toddlers there and had 8 beers and some chicken wings. I wanted to take the girl home with me but, that didn't work out because my youngest got sick. Maybe next time. I tip good, but if I get a really desperate waitress I'll tip SUPER good and it usually works out... You know.
I cruised on in to this place just for the wings which are ok but not the best I've ever had. The "bar" overlooks the cooking area and makes it seem more like you're sitting at the counter in some weird diner. The girls here spend far too much time under the tanning beds; they're going to get skin cancer & are way too skinny. If you want a serious beer and meal at MOA go to Twin City Grill. But I just wanted wings and cold beer & it sufficed.

First and foremost, I've never thought of Hooters as a real food establishment. Unfortunately, that assumption became a reality last night. At first glance, I was going to order some hot wings but when I noticed that they actually charged for ranch and celery (seriously!?) I went ahead and ordered tots and chili. Sadly, these two simple dishes managed to be unsatisfactory. How a "restaurant" can screw up tater-tots and chili is simply beyond me. But I will explain what went wrong just for clarification purposes. First, the tots tasted like they were fried in grease that hadn't been changed in months... Secondly, their chili was clearly from a can/bag. It simply had no flavor or texture that would remotely resemble a quality product. Epic fail on their behalf. Regardless of the "view" that is offered at Hooters, you could not pay me to eat here again.

OMG THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! FIRST OFF. our food was nasty and cold. we got a orders of hot bbq, mild, spicy and tmi wings. and shrimp and fries and celery. the food was cold, and especially the ranch was nasty. i love ranch with my chicken and fries, and they came in the seal packaged type, not in the usual clear plastic containers. i know some may not taste the difference, but I do. and the shrimp tasted horrible. half of the order was hot, half of it was cold. im not a fan of their shrimp to begin with so i didnt bother asking for another batch. the end- i am never going back to mall of america ever again.. maybe besides to check out their aquarium !

This is such a weird place on so many levels. First of all it is tucked away in the most remote and empty part of the Mall of America. Having never been to a Hooters, we thought it would be fun to try. When we arrived there, there was surprising a line out the door. It was about 3pm with no game of significance playing this was puzzling. I would describe the "eye candy" as stale. Food made me feel sick and remorseful. Stay away from fried pickles. Fries weren't very good at all actually. The wings were decent but who needs wings? On the plus side this place is super cheap. So if you're on a budget and like terrible food for you, you'd probably like this place.

So, I practically had to beg my boyfriend to take me here. I have never been to a Hooters and I had a morbid curiosity. So, I wasn't shocked that the waitresses were scantily clad and had big boobs. I was shocked, however, that people actually brought children here. It is a "family restaurant". Got to teach the little girls and boys about implants early in their lives. Ummm.....no matter how I tried to justify it, having only sexy, thin, beautiful servers seemed icky to me. I didn't like it. Also, the food was mediocre. I had the fiesta salad and it was just like a garden salad with a few chips on it. The fried pickles were not delicious. Although, they had terrific Pina Coladas. AND WE SPENT $80. Oh, my gosh. I am traumatized.

One of the nicest Hooter's I've been to. The sauces were good (not gritty) The service was good The decor was (typical hooters) but entertaining and maybe it was cause it was in the middle of January - but not slam packed.

I usually love Hooters for their wings and fun customer service. The wings were still good here, a little bit smaller than the Chicago size that I'm used to. I was disappointed with our waitress who kept on asking us three times if we wanted the bill and in response, we'd just order another pitcher of Blue Moon. Also, when I went into the ladies' restroom, there was no toilet paper there, so I requested one of the servers to mention something and after waiting 20 minutes and still no toilet paper, and I had the fiance go into the men's restroom for toilet paper and they were out there, I ended up going elsewhere to use the restroom.

I've never been to a hooters before - so why not make my first hooters experience be in MN in the mall of america. So i came here with my friend and her family hanging out, drinking beer, chatting and trying to make winky eyes with some of the waitress gals. Sadly - none of the girls returned my winks - and so i gave up - sad and dejected - but my friend's little brother - who happened to have had his birthday coming up - we told the nice young ladies that it was his bday. Guy was turning 16 and they did a little dance around him and took pictures with him. He was glowing! He never had so many cute girls all over him taking pictures with him! He was having a great time! We all did b/c the girls made our day better!

Hooters is Hooters. In fact the original one started in Clearwater, Fl where is close to where I live. Are the girls hot - sure Are they nice - sure What I care about is my food. I ordered a buffalo chicken salad work blue cheese dressing. Curly fries with cheese. Shouldn't be that difficult. Took forever for the food to arrive and it was messed up. No cheese - asked over and over again for it. And they gave me ranch dressing. C'mon people.... It's just little mistakes like that, that annoy me. Lack of attention to detail. Plus people who sat down after us got their food way before we ever did. She couldn't even bring out the fries? Annoying

I know it's a Hooters but you can't beat their wings, fried pickles and curly fries. Drink specials are always good here and it's always a fun time when we come here with friends and you get a lot of food for a decent price. I have friends who were or are Hooter girls and I have always met such nice girls who work here. I think they get a bad rep because of what people perceive of the restaurant but I say get over it!

If you like wings and thighs everywhere, you should stop by. I would also recommend it if you need a place to rest your feet and watch the game. I actually can appreciate what Hooters has to offer. Shopping can create quite the appetite and it is hard to eat inside of a food court that exclusively offers Pepsi products. Being the Southerner that I am, we boycotted until we could find a place with Coca Cola products. Once we make the hike to Hooters, I ordered my soda but decided to slurp an Angry Orchard instead. After all, I was not driving and a same day shopping trip to a mall as big as this one was quite the experience. I needed to sleep on the plane back. Our server was nice even to us girls and the food was prepared quickly. We had a nice quick refuel without breaking the bank. ......Maybe one day they will add a few men to the eye candy mix.

Was craving chicken wings, and decided to go to Hooters to get a takeout order. We wanted plain fried wings, so we opted for the Naked wings (sans the sauce). The chicken was flavorless. You'd think they'd add some salt to season the chicken or breading!

My buddies and I were here to meet up at the Mall of America. Our waitress came up and took our beer order. I got a Summit. She was super nice and was easy on the eyes. We ordered some fried pickles to start off our order. Love the fried pickles with their dipping sauce. Good stuff. The sauce is like a thousand island goo of happiness. I ordered the fish sandwich. I am sure it was a frozen fillet, but the roll they put it on was tasty, and was actually a good sandwich! I was somewhat amazed. I had seen the Hooters Undercover Boss and I knew everything was shipped in, so I was very happy with a great sandwich. I ordered another beer and we had lots of good laughs and the place was packed. Overall, a fun day out with some buddies.

Although I realize that writing reviews of chain restaurants is a bit passé, I'm doing it anyway. Not all of them are created equal. :) (I'm talking about the restaurants, not the waitresses..surgery often tends to level the latter playing field). Without much open in the Mall of America, I decided to stop by here and sit through a Vikings game with a bunch of Vikings fans. Fortunately, the waitress confessed to me that she wasn't a native Minnesotan either, so my service wasn't negatively affected by my lack of enthusiasm for the home team. The wings were saucy, and the service was prompt. With beautiful women galore, it doesn't take much else to garner a positive review from a guy. :)

But I just wanted wings and cold beer & it sufficed.

First and foremost, I've never thought of Hooters as a real food establishment. Unfortunately, that assumption became a reality last night. At first glance, I was going to order some hot wings but when I noticed that they actually charged for ranch and celery (seriously!?) I went ahead and ordered tots and chili. Sadly, these two simple dishes managed to be unsatisfactory. How a "restaurant" can screw up tater-tots and chili is simply beyond me. But I will explain what went wrong just for clarification purposes. First, the tots tasted like they were fried in grease that hadn't been changed in months... Secondly, their chili was clearly from a can/bag. It simply had no flavor or texture that would remotely resemble a quality product. Epic fail on their behalf. Regardless of the "view" that is offered at Hooters, you could not pay me to eat here again.

Food is pretty standard, but the service is terrible. Pretty much what we expected, but options were limited in MoA.

OMG THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! FIRST OFF. our food was nasty and cold. we got a orders of hot bbq, mild, spicy and tmi wings. and shrimp and fries and celery. the food was cold, and especially the ranch was nasty. i love ranch with my chicken and fries, and they came in the seal packaged type, not in the usual clear plastic containers. i know some may not taste the difference, but I do. and the shrimp tasted horrible. half of the order was hot, half of it was cold. im not a fan of their shrimp to begin with so i didnt bother asking for another batch. the end- i am never going back to mall of america ever again.. maybe besides to check out their aquarium !

This is such a weird place on so many levels. First of all it is tucked away in the most remote and empty part of the Mall of America. Having never been to a Hooters, we thought it would be fun to try. When we arrived there, there was surprising a line out the door. It was about 3pm with no game of significance playing this was puzzling. I would describe the "eye candy" as stale. Food made me feel sick and remorseful. Stay away from fried pickles. Fries weren't very good at all actually. The wings were decent but who needs wings? On the plus side this place is super cheap. So if you're on a budget and like terrible food for you, you'd probably like this place.

So, I practically had to beg my boyfriend to take me here. I have never been to a Hooters and I had a morbid curiosity. So, I wasn't shocked that the waitresses were scantily clad and had big boobs. I was shocked, however, that people actually brought children here. It is a "family restaurant". Got to teach the little girls and boys about implants early in their lives. Ummm.....no matter how I tried to justify it, having only sexy, thin, beautiful servers seemed icky to me. I didn't like it. Also, the food was mediocre. I had the fiesta salad and it was just like a garden salad with a few chips on it. The fried pickles were not delicious. Although, they had terrific Pina Coladas. AND WE SPENT $80. Oh, my gosh. I am traumatized.

One of the nicest Hooter's I've been to. The sauces were good (not gritty) The service was good The decor was (typical hooters) but entertaining and maybe it was cause it was in the middle of January - but not slam packed.

I usually love Hooters for their wings and fun customer service. The wings were still good here, a little bit smaller than the Chicago size that I'm used to. I was disappointed with our waitress who kept on asking us three times if we wanted the bill and in response, we'd just order another pitcher of Blue Moon. Also, when I went into the ladies' restroom, there was no toilet paper there, so I requested one of the servers to mention something and after waiting 20 minutes and still no toilet paper, and I had the fiance go into the men's restroom for toilet paper and they were out there, I ended up going elsewhere to use the restroom.

Waitress was friendly and gave great service. We ordered fried pickles which were excellent! I ordered a medium Mushroom Swiss burger which turned out medium-well, but still tasted good. The naked wings and smothered fries were also good. No complaints.

I've never been to a hooters before - so why not make my first hooters experience be in MN in the mall of america. So i came here with my friend and her family hanging out, drinking beer, chatting and trying to make winky eyes with some of the waitress gals. Sadly - none of the girls returned my winks - and so i gave up - sad and dejected - but my friend's little brother - who happened to have had his birthday coming up - we told the nice young ladies that it was his bday. Guy was turning 16 and they did a little dance around him and took pictures with him. He was glowing! He never had so many cute girls all over him taking pictures with him! He was having a great time! We all did b/c the girls made our day better!

Hooters is Hooters. In fact the original one started in Clearwater, Fl where is close to where I live. Are the girls hot - sure Are they nice - sure What I care about is my food. I ordered a buffalo chicken salad work blue cheese dressing. Curly fries with cheese. Shouldn't be that difficult. Took forever for the food to arrive and it was messed up. No cheese - asked over and over again for it. And they gave me ranch dressing. C'mon people.... It's just little mistakes like that, that annoy me. Lack of attention to detail. Plus people who sat down after us got their food way before we ever did. She couldn't even bring out the fries? Annoying

I know it's a Hooters but you can't beat their wings, fried pickles and curly fries. Drink specials are always good here and it's always a fun time when we come here with friends and you get a lot of food for a decent price. I have friends who were or are Hooter girls and I have always met such nice girls who work here. I think they get a bad rep because of what people perceive of the restaurant but I say get over it!

If you like wings and thighs everywhere, you should stop by. I would also recommend it if you need a place to rest your feet and watch the game. I actually can appreciate what Hooters has to offer. Shopping can create quite the appetite and it is hard to eat inside of a food court that exclusively offers Pepsi products. Being the Southerner that I am, we boycotted until we could find a place with Coca Cola products. Once we make the hike to Hooters, I ordered my soda but decided to slurp an Angry Orchard instead. After all, I was not driving and a same day shopping trip to a mall as big as this one was quite the experience. I needed to sleep on the plane back. Our server was nice even to us girls and the food was prepared quickly. We had a nice quick refuel without breaking the bank. ......Maybe one day they will add a few men to the eye candy mix.

Was craving chicken wings, and decided to go to Hooters to get a takeout order. We wanted plain fried wings, so we opted for the Naked wings (sans the sauce). The chicken was flavorless. You'd think they'd add some salt to season the chicken or breading!

"I'm just here for the wings..." No, really. Their wings are actually pretty good.

My buddies and I were here to meet up at the Mall of America. Our waitress came up and took our beer order. I got a Summit. She was super nice and was easy on the eyes. We ordered some fried pickles to start off our order. Love the fried pickles with their dipping sauce. Good stuff. The sauce is like a thousand island goo of happiness. I ordered the fish sandwich. I am sure it was a frozen fillet, but the roll they put it on was tasty, and was actually a good sandwich! I was somewhat amazed. I had seen the Hooters Undercover Boss and I knew everything was shipped in, so I was very happy with a great sandwich. I ordered another beer and we had lots of good laughs and the place was packed. Overall, a fun day out with some buddies.

Good food and fast service. If there is an issue, they will make it right.
