Always a place for special days but stay away from tables with small children as the staff let them become very loud {parenting' but staff should have requested some attention to this as it was not busy
August 2026
It's always a pleasure dining at Houlihans. It's a great place to come for good food at good prices. Our waitress was extremely amicable, and the food was delicious. The only issue we had was the air temperature was very code.

No server came to our table to take drink order. When assistant manager Alfredo realized we didn't have server, he sent someone over and gave us two complementary appetizers. One of the entrees was incorrect. When the correct entree came, Alfredo took it off bill. Experience wasn't great but Alfredo was wonderful. He made up for all the problems. Food was excellent. Would definitely go back.
