The menu is clean and simple and the beer and ice is cold😉. That being said the ambiance is pleasant, modern and invites conversation and as well as a good vibe. I ordered the scallop risotto and it was excellent with 1 small exception. It could have been hotter and I'll bet it was because of how fast (<5min) it came out. The entire dish was cooked perfectly and very tasty. I'm planning a return tomorrow night for the lobster Mac which apparently comes with a 6oz tail on top...
We are hooked on this restaurant! I've been to Hooked several times since they've opened. I have to say they have really upped their game and have finally got it together!! The service was excellent from start to finish. We ordered the bang bang shrimp and lobster rolls for appetizers. We could have left happy just having those! Our main entrees the seabass au pistou and the filet lobster Oscar were cooked to perfection. The picture of this entree on their website menu is a bit deceiving because it shows a filet and a separate lobster tail. In reality, the lobster pieces are shredded on the top of the filet with a bit offered on the side. It's still worth ordering. Their happy hour drink specials were a great deal. Loved their house margaritas and their old fashioned! Live music playing on the weekends really adds to the overall ambiance. They also have a large full bar you can sit at if you are just looking for a drink. Definitely give Hooked a chance. We are very glad we did!
This is by far the worst bar attached to a Hilton property that I have experienced. They are out of beer for the most part, if someone orders a liquor drink, the bartenders do not know what is in stock; they do not have glasses to serve wine and liquor drinks. It is abysmal!
My husband and I went for my birthday dinner last night. There was only 1 server working who was taking care of a private party in the back and the entire dining room. Needless to say the service was terrible but it was not the servers fault The food was mediocre at best. We tried a house salad and grouper fingers for an appetizer. They were just OK. My husband got the scallop risotto which was mediocre and overpriced. I ordered the shrimp and scallop scampi. The sauce tasted like garlic flavored dishwater and the grey color was unappealing. The scallops were cooked nicely but the shrimp was disappointing. There wasn’t a manager or anyone to help the poor server, who stated this was the second week of work and the other person who was scheduled, never showed up. I was so excited to try this restaurant but it was a huge disappointment. I do not recommend.
Had to give the Scampi a try. I subbed the scallops out with more shrimp and it certainly had a nice creamy garlic sauce smothered over the crunchy shrimp. Overall, the food was good, the cocktails were decent, the service was a bit weak, and the food is a bit overpriced. If you are in the area, check it out. Happy eating!
Restaurant is off the lobby of a hotel but don't let distract you from the great food they serve here.
Great Oysters nice and fresh.
Sea bass was beautifully cooked.
Spicy shrimp are delicious.
Highly recommend.
If you like seafood this place should be near the top of your list.
Great service at this place.
2.5 STARS for this place. Hotel folks: ORDER Red Lobster nearby, and you will get better mussels, better quality fish, and yes, better food. Food mostly sucked; overpriced seafood. It's one of those places where you have to know what's good (nothing is excellent). The hostess was responsive, but obviously overworked. They sent the SMALLEST plastic utensils with the bag of take-out food to my hotel room. Don't tip, because there's a 20% gratuity included in the bill. I always tip 20%, and never less or more.
3 STARS for the MUSSELS, which were nicely cooked with a watery, bland sauce. Small portion. The good: It's OK.
2 STARS for CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD, which included some giant chicken pieces, hearts of lettuce with burnt edges, Italian tasting vinegary "Caesar" dressing (not the nice creamy Caesar we all love), and commercial-tasting croutons. Lame. The good: lots of chicken protein.
2 STARS for FISH FRY, which is their fish and chips. The tartar sauce tasted store-bought, fish tasted like any fried, re-heated piece of white fish (not fresh tasting), and fries were just your common fries. No cocktail sauce or extra tartar (if you like their terrible tartar). The good: Big portion of both fish and fries that will fill you up.
3 STARS for SALMON DISH, which had a piece of crisp (overcooked) -- but tasty -- salmon, butter-like sauce that might go well with lobster, and your average rice and asparagrus on the side. Something you'd get at a banquet. Way overpriced for the medium-quality. THE GOOD: will provide you a healthy, simple meal.
1 STAR for LAVA CAKE, which tasted like frozen bread microwaved to warmth, plus Hershey's syrup poured into the middle; the vanilla ice cream was FREEZER BURNT and tasted gross. The GOOD: Did not finish it.
Hooked can be described as a hidden gem of Williamsville. The food was flavorful and fresh. Signature drinks tasty with some humorous names. The portions were very filling. The chief here clearly is adding his own mark on this menu. A must try is the bone marrow. Plenty of parking in the back lot. I would recommend Hooked for your next date night.
This place is amazing! The workouts are challenging, yet fun. The 30 minutes fly by. Dan and Victoria are perceptive trainers who know how to push you to your limits! Being able to begin the circuit workout as soon as you arrive makes this a conve

I love the chill relaxing vibe at the Moor Pat! Great selection of craft brews and yummy bar bites. I was running late to meet a friend there for a drink on a Thursday night. She texted me and told me not to rush or worry that Corey, the bartender, w
