Accepted Answer

Hooked’s posted hours are limited and focused on evening service: Thursday 5:00 pm–8:00 pm; Friday and Saturday 5:00 pm–9:30 pm. Because hours can change for holidays or special events, call ahead or check the restaurant’s current listing before you go, especially outside peak season.

Hooked has a warm, lively seafood-bistro vibe: softly lit, cozy inside with an energetic crowd on weekends and occasional live music. Guests praise a friendly, welcoming staff and a relaxed-but-upscale casual dining feel.

When is this restaurant busiest and quietest?

Accepted Answer
