Second Hooters restaurant in El Paso to open with 2024 calendar signing

The second Hooters for El Paso will open with some fanfare Oct. 16.

The restaurant, at 1799 Joe Battle Blvd., will open with a 2024 Hooters Calendar signing from 5 to 8 p.m., giving fans the opportunity to meet and have their calendars signed by some of the Hooters Girls in the calendar.

And one of the Hooters girls will be El Pasoan Priscilla Villegas, who is featured in the calendar.

The restaurant was renovated in the former Cattle Baron's, a 7,000-square-foot venue. It is the 52nd Hooters in Texas.

"With Texas as one of our largest markets, we are excited to strengthen our presence in El Paso," said Larry Linen, Hooters chief operating officer, in a news release. "Our lively atmosphere, friendly staff, and signature food make Hooters the perfect place to cheer on your favorite sports teams with friends and create unforgettable memories with the people you love most."

The Hooters El Paso East menu will feature an unmatched line-up of wing styles, bone-in and boneless, plus signature sauces and dry rubs.
