    Our server was Mia and she was great. There were 4 of us, 2 had the Asian chicken chop chop salad which was delicious. The other 2 had the pot roast and it was good. Definitely will return.

    We recently moved to the area and decided to give Houlihans a try. Everyone was very nice but was surprised how long it took the server to bring out waters (we had our appetizers before the water). I ordered chicken lettuce wraps for entree, husband the strip steak and our daughter Turkey club- food was good! My husband pretty much always orders an Old Fashioned and did so here as well. He will have it made with Angela Envy or Dour Roses whiskey if available…the premium liquor is always an up charge we get it…but what was a $10.50 drink turned into $38 drink! I assumed this was an error so walked up to the bar, nope she stood by the price and said they charge the same as everyone else (just not true). In all the food and atmosphere was great but the service very slow and liquor overpriced. Most likely will not be back.

    Our waiter (Sebastian) was nice and helpful. He did a great job of keeping up with our drinks, too.

    The service was attentive, our server was friendly and professional. The food was all over cooked and not real flavor to anything. It’s was a mediocre food experience. Probably will not be back any time soon.

    We reserved the Valentines dinner but there was nothing different than a usual visit. We expected to have a Valentines experience as described but were given the regular menu, nothing to indicate that we had made Valentines reservations- we ordered off the all day fix menu which was also oddly the exact menu advertised for Valentines but ten dollars less. We enjoy Houlihans overall as a place to go out but felt disappointed with their “Valentines” dinner. It might as well have been any other day…🫤

    Great Valentine’s Day experience! The 3 course menu had great options, the food came out at a good pace, and the staff were very attentive. We love Houlihans and wanted a low key experience with our teenage daughter, it was the perfect night!

    Everything was excellent, but it was very cold in Houlihans. I had to keep my coat on to be comfortable.

    Cold food, stale chips served with the spinach dip, overpriced and not enough wait staff. The server did her best, but this was a failed meal. Don’t recommend.

    We had a great dinner tonight. Everything was very good. Our server was excellent. She went out of way a few times to accommodate us. We will be back.

    Service was friendly, food was amazing. Open on Christmas - my dad and I were happy we went and enjoyed it versus cooking at home. Will likely be back again next holiday.
