    Houlihan's is a popular place for people to get together and I can see why. I came from California to see my family and to take them out for dinner. Houlihan's had a menu with a variety that suited all 9 family members tastes and dietary requirements. There was a great selection of alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages from their well stocked bar. Music was playing but soft enough to hear conversations from one end of the long table to the other end. Even though the food was typical for pub food from a restaurant chain, there was a good selection and I was surprised at the fairly low calorie content of some dishes that I thought would be higher.

    Today’s visit was much lower than their standard from what I understand they were missing a waiter, but the service was very bad. I ordered soup and salad and my friend ordered the burger platter with a salad. Her salad was bought out and mine was not. I told them that I would like the salad then it never came. I got one cup of soup that came out when her Burger came out we were never offered anymore. We tried to track down the waiter for my unlimited soup and salad, never got the salad never got a 2nd cup of soup so I literally paid for one cup of soup what I should’ve paid for a meal my friends burger was done, but we couldn’t find the waiter to get it fixed. No one ever came to check how we were doing until the very end, we had asked to speak to a manager and we told that the manager was not there. The chef came out and spoke to us and apologized, saying they were understaffed eventually and manager did come. She said she just came on duty an hour early she gave us each of five dollar certificate and she packed me up some soup and salad, I think my meal should’ve been paid for rather than giving me things. I would have to heat up or eat leftovers at home. We got a five dollar certificate for our next visit with an apology. This is not their normal standard, but we did not enjoy the visit at all this time

    service was good. prices a bit high for what was offered. The prix fix has been changed and is now lacking some of the favorites such as cheese sticks on the appetizers, chicken sandwich and french dip on the entree. Service was frendly anda

    The place is nice, the waitress was great, the food took so long to come out and when it did, it sat under a warming light for so long that it tasted like it had been in the microwave too long. I had to send it back.
