Tilted Kilt , Sickerville, NJ

History

The first Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery was opened in the Las Vegas Rio Hotel and Casino in 2003 by restaurateur Mark DiMartino and business partners and co-founders Omid Joon, Shannon Reilly and John Reynaud.[2][non-primary source needed] The concept was a "contemporary, Celtic-themed sports Pub staffed with beautiful servers in sexy plaid kilts and matching plaid bras." The company has locations in 22 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces.

Tilted Kilt describes itself as "a modern American, Scottish and Irish sports pub".[3] The menu is a mix of traditional and contemporary pub food, serving items such as Fish and chips, Shepherd's Pie, and Big Arse Burgers. Each Pub features at least 24 beers on tap, including flagship beverages such as Guinness and Samuel Adams. The establishments are filled with televisions for sporting events and games such as Golden Tee, pool and darts are available for the patrons.
Others place Tilted Kilt into the category of "breastaurant," in the same vein as Hooters and Twin Peaks, specializing in scantily-clad female servers.[4][5] The company's homepage heavily features so-called "Kilt Girls."[6] Community members in Evanston, Illinoismounted a successful campaign to keep the chain from opening there.
