I still remember my first trip to Hooters; It was 1993, I was in Baltimore for a convention and our group decided to try Hooters. The wings were greasy, the service was poor...I think we drank 2 pitchers of beer before the waitress remembered that she completely forgot to put our food order in, but we had a lot of fun and it was a great atmosphere with lots of photos, sports memorabilia and other stuff hanging from the walls. Of course, the waitresses that the place is named in honor of were there in full force, and it was a gimmicky restaurant that people were flocking to in droves.
Little has changed over the years and the Doral location is more of the same...Exact same "uniforms" for the waitresses, a bunch of stuff mounted and hanging everywhere, it's usually packed, and it's an OK place to meet friends for a beer and some wings. The food isn't anything to write home about... After you finish a plate of wings, you can see how much grease and strange, clear/orange fluid they were swimming in, your gas smells like Hooters wings for a day after you've eaten here, the sandwiches are usually covered in cheeses, and nearly everything is greasy, deep fried and unhealthy. However, people are still flocking here, 'cause it's all about the atmosphere and the gimmick is still selling.
