Hotshots Sports Bar & Grill

I went in to hot shots expecting your normal bar atmosphere.. let me tell you what I got was above and beyond between the staff and experience I couldn't have painted a better picture of how a place should be I was welcomed with open arms and friendly faces , decatur has a few places that are fun but none with the people involved here if you want a great experience request Cassie or marina. Either one will make you smile and feel welcome ! Aaron is a people person and knows how to make a person feel involved the environment was a new experience to say the least yall got to check it out !!!

Our waitress was absolutely wonderful. Food was great. It was our first time visiting. We had ordered a few times by door dash. But first-time going inside. We loved it and atmosphere was great and service was great as well.

Visited Hotshots for the first time with my family. It opened in Decatur within the past two months. It was not the best of visits, but the restaurant has potential.

One of my family members with me was my 18 month old grandson. Unfortunately, the restaurant had no high chairs or booster seats. We almost left, but stayed. The grandson had to sit on an adult’s lap and eat. Not the best start.

The server was friendly and welcoming. She was slow to bring drinks and slower to refill them. In fact, the water drinkers had to wait for the server to take an empty glass to the back, refill it and return. Too many wasted steps went into this process. Bringing a pitcher to the table for refills would have been better.

The food was so, so. The Nachos were good. The beef had a nice kick and it was garnished nicely. However, I had ordered chicken nachos. I did not complain or request a refund.

The appetizer sampler platter had overcooked ravioli and mini tacos. The tater tots were good. The honey glaze on the boneless wings was flavorful, but the wings were tough.

The staff was friendly. The manger gave us free fries for no apparent reason than to be nice. I appreciated the gesture, as did the grandson.

This could become a nice sports bar. There are many mounted flat screens throughout the restaurant. They were on and showing a variety of games. The back room has pool tables and dart boards. It could give the other local sports bars a run for the money if service and food quality improve.

I see potential in the Decatur Hotshots. I will return in 30 to 45 days to see if there is improvement.
