Since 1972, we’ve believed in quality ingredients, cooking from scratch and having fun. From our famous ‘Shrooms and Stuffed Chicken Breast to our unique burger blend and ahi tuna, we believe in celebrating the small things and that every moment deserves a toast in its honor. So grab a drink (perhaps our signature Long Island Iced Tea), enjoy some great conversation and let us serve you an excellent meal.

    All good. Great place. One issue yesterday was that large birthday crowd was standing between the bar and the hi-top tables. The servers couldn't get through with trays They were brushing against friends of ours who are also regulars at Houlihan's and who were eating dinner. They decided to take their meals to go and they left. Suggestion, with groups like that gathering for drinks with gifts, perhaps the management can offer them an area in the dining room and maybe give a small break like $10 off the check if they agree to move.

    Sat us at a table by the kitchen. Not very romantic for a Valentines dinner. Service was very fast. Waitress was very sweet and efficient.

    We always love sitting at the bar at Houlihan's. We're there 2 or 3 times every week. Now it's so nicely decorated with hearts for Valentine's Day. That's a perfect reminder for us and we will certainly be there on Friday 2/14. Great, fun place with delicious food.

    Again, this neighborhood gem didn’t disappoint! The chicken tortilla soup was delicious as were the Shrooms! One guest had the full rack of spare ribs! Enough for two meals and “fall off the bone “ delicious . Two other guests had burgers - they were very happy with their choice . I had meatloaf - it was over-the-top wonderful! Our server was attentive and friendly- and ,as usual, the manager Alfredo stopped by our table several times to make sure we were not in need of anything. A perfect dinner and Saturday night out!
