Guys,
There was a recent thread about Hooters on the board and just wanted to provide an update.
Twarag, Mikey-B, me and several ladies and other people wound up going there Wednesday of last week... my, what a mistake.
The place is absolutely gorgeous and looks so much better than the average Hooters. The food was the same as stateside, which means that if you like Hooters food, you won't be disappointed in that department (though some of the food we got was cold...). It is actually quite expensive to eat there as well by CR standards , with the food seeming to be more costly than a stateside Hooters.
Where the place fell SERIOUSLY short is in service. We practically had to BEG for a waitress every time we wanted to order something. It took almost half an hour between the time the first person on our table ordered and the last person on our table ordered. I had to chase down the waitress for every single refill of my drink, and the food order for my group not only came out wrong, but it took about 3 times as long as any other hooters to even get the food. The girls there are lazy and are just sitting around talking amongst themselves, and I unfortunately have to say that it is not worth anyone's time to go check it out.
The kicker of the whole thing is that when we got the check, there is actually a line at the bottom for "Tip", which is the first time I see that in Costa Rica. Due to the terrible service (and the fact that the waitress ALREADY has a 10% gratuity patched in to the original tab), Twarag decided to put 0 (zero) on that line... upon seeing that, our wonderful waitress gave him a dirty look... imagine that, she actually thought she had earned a tip...
Anyways, it's unfortunately not worth the time or effort to go there. What a shame, too, as I love Hooters stateside and would have loved to have one in paradise to take the local friends to.
Oh well.
