Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery

Ahhhh, the sight of a comfortable, clean, and wholesome place to eat never fails to bring a smile to my face.

On a recent visit to Atlanta, a friend recommended the TK for a casual dinner so we came here. The service is eye-opening, for the waitresses go all out to make you feel comfortable. We had the steamed clams, which were exceptional and far better than I've had in more upscale restaurants. Use the accompanying bread to sop up the delicious broth.

The Longshanks Sausage Sandwich was good! I was unsure about the food quality since much effort had been put into the decor and furnishings, but I was not disappointed. The fries were crunchy and had a lip-smacking season salt on them that made me want more. Nicole and Kat were our awesome servers, and I want to give them credit for making our visit a memorable experience.

A fellow Yelper already mentioned this but the food and decor is definitely several steps above a chain well-known for "bird-watching" aka Hooters.

I am laughing as I choose four stars. I would bump it down to a three because it took FOREVER to get our food...but, that being said...the food was so so so good when we got it. I am constantly on the look out for a great blue cheese burger and this one is just a star under the Vortex. It was cooked exactly like I wanted it (slightly pink in the middle), had ample blue cheese and was topped with onion strings. Heaven!

I have to mention the atmosphere: It was like the beginning of a joke..."three women walk into a bar (insert Tilted Kilt)..." We were the ONLY female patrons there. No joke. Every head turned to watch us walk to our table. I felt as if I had stumbled into a mens only club. Well, perhaps I did.

Now to mention the waitstaff: Even I couldn't keep my eyes off of her...incredibly flat stomach. Yikes! Super friendly and attentive. Nice to know us women get good service here as well.

Will for sure go back for the burger, staring males and all.

Of course I knew what I was walking into when I decided to try this place out on Saturday afternoon. I'd been telling some friends of my fish & chips craving and the first place suggested was just much further than I felt like driving right then. The next suggestion was Tilted Kilt and I immediately laughed. Hell nah. I wanted good food, not T&A.

Alas, my desire to not drive too far got the best of me and I hit up the Tilted Kilt near me. So yeah, aside from the scantily clad servers I was, in fact, the only woman in the joint. Didn't bother me at all. I ordered a drink and my fish & chips and my companion and I sat eavesdropping on the heeee-lar-ious conversation taking place at the bar between the bartender (who was sitting ON the bar) and two drooling married men. Was like a comedy show, drinks and food all in one location. What a combo!

So the Fish & Chips - not horrible, but nothing I'd crave and/or recommend. Too much breading on the fish for my taste and said breading soaked up tons of grease. It was a heavy breading, too. I need a lil more fishy in there. But it was nice and crunchy, hot as hell and served with a smile I didn't feel was meant to seduce me into leaving an enormous tip.

I'd go back, though. It wasn't all bad, but maybe because I'm not bothered by bare skin or women showing off their assets. A solid 3 is fair.

Corporate misogyny at it's finest! Why can't we just cut the crap and let the Macaroni Grill/Longhorn Steakhouse/Cheesecake Factory start a chain of strip clubs? What I found especially hilarious is the stack of motorcycle-afficianado magazines at the entrance to this fine establishment. As if the Sons of Anarchy would go here!

So if you don't want to support a local restaurant, and don't want to go to the Pink Pony, here's how it is: The reviewers here are correct in comparing it to Hooters. However, it's like comparing Applebee's to White Castle. Anyway, there is a much better food selection, and there's comfortable seating and it does look like an actual pub. There are a ton of big-screened TVs so you can't miss your sporting event.

As far as the ladies go, there was about one hot one, the rest were skanks with tramp stamps, stringy hair, overbites and muffin tops. Maybe I shouldn't have gone in the middle of the day. (I really haven't seen better talent at any random Hooters so... meh.) Our waitress was nice.. no complaints about the service. I think we had like 3 different ladies come to our table, and one Asian guy at one point.. I don't know what that was about.

Eat/drink/ watch sports here if you have no soul and are dead inside.

I definitely went into this place with an open mind, and a semi-low cut top so that i didn't feel totally inferior to the hotties with huge boobs who work there...

But, the most awkward, uncomfortable, weird, creepy and gross thing about this place was that it was TOTALLY packed (the place is huge) and I was one of like, 3 women customers there. Basically the whole time I was eating, I watched 50 yr old men oogle their 20 (if that) yr old servers, and then turn completely around in their chairs to watch their servers walk away. It is so gross.

On top of that, my boyfriend and I sat at our table for at least 5 minutes before anyone came over to wait on us. Then, my boyfriend tried to order the awesome yuengling special from a little menu thing that is standing up on the table, but our server told us that since it was November 2nd (and no longer October), the special was expired. Ok, so they had more than a day to get this special list off the table, but it's still on the table and they refuse to honor it...and, there is no expiration date listed on the special menu thing that says it was only for October.

The food was very mediocre.

Honestly though, I was disturbed at how young the girls were in conjunction with what they were wearing and the age of the men who were oogling...they might as well be strippers, and they've like, got to be lying to their parents when they tell them where they work.

I LOVE Tilted Kilt. Beats the hell out of any cheesy sports bar like Taco Mac, and I like it much better than Arena Tavern or Marlow's, although Marlow's is a restaurant. Can't really take a girl there though, and you definitely won't be meeting any there.

They have a great beer selection on tap, including Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA, with good specials always going on. The menu is the best bar food menu you'll find, even if the food isn't fine dining quality. As I said, still spanks the hell out of Taco Mac, Hooter's, and whatever else is around Atlanta. Well, except Dantanna's maybe. OK, best sports bar in the Johns Creek/Alpharetta area then.

The bar is warm, inviting, nicely decorated and clean, with lots of huge flat screen TVs and free wi-fi.

Women do not like to come here because of the scantily clad servers, so it's pretty much a sausagefest. But what sports bar isn't? I just want to chill out and have a beer sometimes. Younger women seem to be more hung up about it than older women though. I do see some older women in there on occasion. Plus, it's Johns Creek, so there really aren't any younger women.

Make sure you get Vanessa--she is the best bartender I've ever had.


LMAO at this guy's review below me....

Wait... did I just walk into a ghetto Hooter's? Why yes I did!!!!

It's like a mix between a Hooters and an Irish pub! It sounds like a bad combination, but I actually liked that feel. The food was definitely better than the Hooters I've visited. The waitresses range from Meh! to decent. None of them were head turning hot, but I'm not really here for that. I want a good place to watch the game and a nice pretty distraction when commercials come on. The beer selection is ok and the food is halfway decent. I can't and won't ask for more.

Shepherd's pie, girls with short skirts, beer, and sports?!? What's not to love?

Well I finally got over to the Tilted Kilt, and first impression is that Hooters ain't got nothing on this place, lol. The menu is just basic bar food with a gimmicky attempt at Irish flare. They have shepherds pie and corned beef, but the nacho's, burgers, and wings seem to dominate the place.

As far as first impressions go, the service fell short. I met my wife and two friends there whom had already ordered. I waited between 10-15 minutes before one of the scantly clad waitresses even acknowledged my existence. I did receive my first beer in a decent amount of time, but upon finishing the Black & Tan was never asked if I would like a second...which I did want, but sadly never got. They have a good selection of beer on tap, but I can get that at other places with better food and service.

Onto the food, which was nothing special. The table had already started in on wings and nachos. The wings are alright, but really salty, which made me thirsty, hence the need for a second beer, which I never got. The nachos, dare I say the chips reminded me of Taco Bell. I ended up ordering the corned beef and cabbage sandwich which came on what appeared to be a french roll, but I could of swore it was supposed to be on marbled rye. The sandwich was ok, but nothing spectacular, I could have used a lot more corned beef on this thing. The sandwich came with homemade potato chips, but no condiment for dipping. Again the lack of tasty dipping sauce made me thirsty and in need of a second beer...which I never got. I ended up drinking my wife's Diet Coke before heading over to the movies.

On a side note, the Tilted Kilt does not serve pitchers of beer because they consider it trashy. But girls in short skirts with all manner of cleavage, both simulated and real, hanging out is no where near trashy. I've got news for them, a pitcher of beer is not trashy...it's economic.

Overall, not impressed what so ever. I think if you wear a business suit, your Bluetooth, and a fancy briefcase you'll get a lot more attention from the wait staff. Did I mention that I never got a second Black & Tan!

Tucked away in the strip mall near my house, this chain pub was a good destination for me and some friends to chill and watch Sunday night football. The whole attraction is that the waitresses are scantily clad in kilts and cut off shirts...so basically it's a better Hooters.

Tonight I tried the wings, burgers, and Shepherds Pie. Everything was ok, and the pie was above average.

The beer selection isn't bad and the food is definitely better than Hooters. Service was pretty good too. Our waitress was real sweet and came by every 10-15 mins to check on us.

Horrible menu. Standard pub food that's nothing short of sustenance. No standouts on the menu.

Some of the girls working there were way too young to be dressed like that. Don't get me wrong, I ain't no holy roller, but I felt like I should go to jail for even being in the same room as some of these girls. This was disgusting. Overall a pretty lame experience.
