    Went to Houlihan's on 6/25/13 for dinner. Sat in the bar area. Nice place, bar area was pretty busy.  Service was very good.  I had the French Dip sandwich and it was OK.  Would have been better had they provided horseradish sauce.   Overall a nice place to have dinner and drinks.

    Methinks not. I've been here two times. First was a Sunday afternoon, nothing remakrable. Can't even remember what I had, it was so bland. What I did notice was the "upscale" vibe it wanted to portray.

    Second time I went, a fight broke out in the parking lot. On a weekend night this place apparently turns to an urban club, complete with fights and crappy drinks. Worst margarita of my life. Ok appetizers, semi-slow service. Do not sit at the bar. Actually, spare yourself the bad experience and just go somewhere else. And if what you wanna do is go clubbing, then just go clubbing and take your fights with you.

    First time at Houlihan's, late night on a Saturday. The service and atmosphere were good, spinach dip was runny and could have used more cheese, but the mini-flight martinis were very yummy! I had the key lime, lemon drop, and chocolate. I would definitely come here again.

    Love Houlihan's just not this location...our server didn't come back and they weren't that busy. I ordered the meatloaf and the presentation was werid...it was like someone in the kitchen watched food network the night before and was trying something new....I will go back to Houlihan's just not here.

    Complimentary valet, beautiful decor and ambiance, and great wait staff! Food was delicious and can't wait to return.  Best grilled cheese ever, pot stickers were awesome, and wings were amazing!

    I went here for a mid-week lunch (around 3) last year. There was barely anyone there, but our food took forever (didn't order much) and the food was bland, the mac & cheese-like dish I had was soggy. I'm not itching to go back.

    Went again with hubby tonight and tried a burger.  We started with the Truck Stop Fries, which were touted to be 'covered in a chipotle cheese sauce' which proved not to be very accurate.  The fries were typical thin-cut fries, with a drizzle of chipotle cheese sauce and a thinner drizzle of some tasty green sauce - no idea what it was.

    I had the Cheesy Royale Yum Yum Burger, medium rare, and it came with about a full cup of shredded lettuce (way too much), two fancy cut dill pickle slices and a melty piece of cheddar (I guess) cheese and some special sauce.  The patty was tasty, cooked perfectly and appropriately juicy.  The bun was stale/dry and lacked any flavor.  Once again, another really good sounding entree that misses the mark enough to fall off the top of the charts.

    Hubby ordered the Grilled Salmon Panzanella Salad, which had (supposedly) a 9oz filet of salmon (looked smaller than that, by far), over grilled asparagus, tomatoes (2 grape tomatoes total), basil and baby arugula, dressed with a balsalmic vinagrette.  He said it was tasty enough, but to me, the dressing was more of a splash than a real addition to the dish.  It had pieces of what appeared to be a grilled hamburger bun, cut in quarters, as either croutons or some sort of accessory bread, which completely befuddled me.

    For $17.50 we both agreed it was overpriced, under portioned and poorly accessorized.

    The manager contacted me via email after my last review, offering a gift card (which I have not yet received).  Based on this, our third, not so amazing experience, I really am not sure we'll ever go back - why can't I just break up with this place, despite how good it sounds in print?  Sigh.

    A note to set this joint aside from all others is the wait staff - again we had spot-on service, this time from Pedro.  Appropriately inquisitive, good drink refills, timely check-ins and perfect presentation were all there - only thing that saved the day AGAIN!  Thanks Pedro!

    Thanks for reading.

    Love how you can order lots of little things. But a big BOOHOO for getting rid of the veggie flatbread! It was my very favorite thing, and now they don't have it anymore! my cries..

    Neighborhood: This is a great location to have a nice bite to eat or do some last minute shopping, at a definite up and coming power village in DFW. This area is filled with sidewalk cafes and pedestrian-friendly parks.

    Ambiance: Walking in you get the sense of upscale dining. A very modern and contemporary flare. There was no smoking at this location, but it did have a patio with plenty of room. This place is geared toward bigger groups ...judging by the openness and layout. .

    Clientele:  I saw a place that is appropriate for all ages. As you look around you tend to see thirty somethings everywhere  

    Food: I only had some appetizers and they we "OK". The Spicy Chicken and Avocado Rolls were really good, but the Parmesan Fries seemed to literally taste like fries with Parmesan cheese poured on them. Nothing special about the fries, but they did have 3 different dipping sauces.

    Staff:  I sat at the bar with 2 friends. Both had already received their drinks, and I was the last to arrive. The bartender in no way seemed to be in any rush to ask what I wanted, and he did not seemed to be interested in asking if we wanted refills either. He did liven up a bit when he overheard us discussing sports, as he interjected with some comments of his own. Seems like if you want decent service at this location, you may have to peak their own personal interests to get it.

    wifi:  No wifi.

    Value:  Ultra-premium drinks that range from classic to a trendy twist. Bar and Patio only for this value. Monday - Thursday | 11am - 1am, Friday | 4pm - 7pm, Sunday | 11am - 10pm. 1/2 off house cocktails & draft beer (excludes LIT pitchers). Select appetizers during Happy Hour are priced at $6.95. Tuesdays are 1/2 off all wine by the bottle.

    Overall I like the ambiance of the location and drink selections were a plus. I always enjoy a non-smoking restaurant, that is very clean and you don't have to yell to speak to the person seated next to you. I have to remove a few stars for the lack of enthusiasm shown by the staff, and "OK" food

    I've been going to Houlihan's for quite some times now on & off.  But I've notice they change management quite often and chefs. Today I finally went again in over six months. I notice that the food wasn't prepared the same and it's wasn't an enjoyable dinner.

    I've always ordered the white bean hummus with artichoke dip and this time it was only purée with only white beans. Even the waitress that waited on us had notice the problem.  She was kind enough to removed it from our bill.  My stuffed chicken breast came out slight burnt and the stuffing was dry.

    From the experience I don't think I'm coming back anytime soon.

    Meh. This place is a restaurant but mostly known for it's bar it seems. The restaurant side has noticeably bad service; I have never waited so long for a check. Their servers are just constantly M.I.A. and a bit space-cadety, probably focusing on their bar patrons (more tips I assume).

    Food is actually pretty good though. Lots of different types of dishes, there was a subtle italian vibe to it, such as pastas, pizzas, vegetables and etc. But to me, it felt a bit overpriced for the quantity they serve you. So overall bad restaurant experience but again their bar seems more popular.

    Good places for socializing and drinking with a group of people. Kind of one of those pre or post-club places you'd go to, or even a decent place to bring a first-date and be slightly dressy and casual. Square plates, dark mood lighting and dark wood modern furniture. Nice and upscale looking.

    So it seems it this place to me attracts a certain crowd: a young, rich, successful group of post-college grads. Which is fine. But personally, not my cup of tea. I'd rather go to B-Dubs or even Chili's with the boys.

    I came here to catch up with my girls.  They do take reservations but will only seat you when half your party is there.  We were seated and our server came by and we ordered our drinks.  I ordered a flatbread pizza as my meal.  When it came out it was really cold so I asked them to reheat it.  My server said they would make a fresh batch.  When it came back out it was steaming hot BUT IT WAS NOT A FRESH BATCH as two of my slices already had crushed pepper that I added prior to sending it back?  Which is fine but wow don't tell me they will make a fresh batch and then send out the pizza that I had before.  My flatbread was tasty though.  Our service started to slow down and I wasn't getting my refills of my tea.  This location was not busy at all.   It seems that our server was overwhelmed and in a bad mood as I asked a question and I got attitude given back?! WTH.   Our server had a really bad attitude.  I asked for a tea to go and she brought out sweet tea.  I told her she brought out sweet tea instead of unsweetened tea.  Her response back was that is what you asked for.  Hmmm no it wasn't.  I gave this location two stars as the SERVICE SUCKED!

    Most overlooked menu item: meatloaf number 9, omg! The most fabulous meatloaf I have had in my life!  The flavor is sooooo good.  You will be sopping up the gravy.  The portions are very large, I always take some home.

    We have always had great service at Houlihans.  Love the upscale atmosphere and the reasonable prices.

    I can't get enough of this place! The service is always on point, and I love their happy hour! (at this Arlington location! Not the Addison one- the service there is horrendous)

    Usually sit at the bar, and the bartenders are so friendly and chatty (but not too chatty) and we occasionally sit out on the patio on a good weather night, and most of the time I sit out on a patio of any bar- I have to go hunt down a server every time we need something, but no need for that here!
    The food is alright- I think a lot of people who come at later hours of the night mainly come here for the drinks and to chill out with a group of friends while having some side plates to nom on, so... no OUT OF THIS WORLD kind of dishes I've experienced so far.

    Great staff, drinks, plates, and prices!

    Inside and out this place is everything you would expect from a chain- the atmosphere is trendy and modern, the food is "meh" the service is "meh." There were four of us and we all got multiple small plates- nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable either. And portions are very small, even when expecting a "small plate."

    Oh Gosh.  I looked at the menu before arriving with high hopes.  What a disappointment.  Arrived on a Sunday to a nice bartendar who mentioned on Sun was 1/2 off bar apps and cocktails.  Woo Hoo off to a good start.  Well down hill from here.  Ordered tuna over wontons.  What was this mess in front of me?  Thick chucks of tuna instead of nicely thin slices.  I swear they were the size three nickels stack up together. 1 wonton chip with a glob of slaw on it.  Tuna was flavorless (can someone say cat food) and slaw was way over dressed.  My cocktail was wonderful but not so much that I wanted to attempt something else on the menu.  I really hope the owner is reviewing this so he can have his chef take a lesson or two.  Won't be back

    This bar/restaurant is amazing! I'm definitely coming back again after my first visit a few weeks ago. The place is extremely clean and reminds me of any bar or chill night club. The waiters are highly knowledgeable of the menu and make sure that your table is comfortable during the entire duration. The stuffed mushrooms are so delicious; I would highly recommend them to anyone who is a fan of mushrooms like myself. Full bar, talented bartenders, excellent menus that are filled with variety! Definitely come for their happy hour!

    Probably one of the best places in Arlington for happy hour! Some days they even have happy hour ALL DAY! So call in and ask about it :)
    I absolutely love love loooooove this place! It's my go-to place when i wanna go to a familiar restaurant.

    First off, the service is always really great! I don't think I've ever had a grumpy waiter/waitress that ignored me at all! Everyone is super nice and it makes the atmosphere really great to spend a lot of time at! When you walk in, you're always greeted immediately and taken to your table or if you prefer the bar or patio, it's a really great atmosphere. I can spend hours talking and drinking and eating at this place and I never feel rushed.

    A lot of days they have great happy hour specials ALL DAY and their food is delicious! My favorite is the stuffed breaded chicken and the tortilla soup. Everything else is pretty great too, I've never gotten anything there that I don't like. Also, my favorite long island iced tea is the raspberry ice tea, try it! Everyone I know loves it! And to make it even more awesome, it's part of the happy hour special so most of the time I get it for only $3.50.

    All the above sounds great and all but you know what is my favorite part? Everytime I've been there I've seen an old friend or an acquaintance so it's a pretty popular/fun place to meet up/randomly meet people. Coolest person I've ever met there? DEZ FREAKIN BRYANT! Yes, the Cowboys football player. How awesome is that? Got to say hi to him and take a pic with him all while enjoying an awesome dinner with my buddies!

    After seeing a movie Poppie and I drove over to Houlihans for a quick bite to eat. The bar and patio was packed with Rangers fans watching the game and yelling for a much needed win.

    We decided to sit in the abandon dining area due to the over crowded bar and patio.

    The waiter was very informative with the specials and menu. We were kinda disappointed that the Happy Hour specials were only available at the bar. Ordering the burger sliders, baked potato soup and the stuffed mushrooms seemed to entertain our taste buds quite well.

    Being that this was our first time at Houlihans it really didn't impress us to try again...:((

    I like eating here a lot. It's a swanky place that is real good for if you're on a date, if you are having a themed party (ex. All White party), if you want to watch the game on the big screen (they got a spot in there for you too)

    Great thing about them, is if you go online and you sign up for their email list, you can get coupons and specials you wouldn't normally know about. It's a very classy place. Loved it.

    While I was visiting Texas, I saw Houlihan's while visiting a nearby restaurant so I made sure to stop in before I returned to California.  I wasn't sure what to expect after asking my family about it.  I got there around 7pm on a Friday and was seated immediately which is unheard of for almost any restaurant in CA.  

    I decided to go with the small plates menu as I'd never been to a restaurant that offered up there food like that.  I started off with a couple of Sliders and some Pickle Fries while my brother started with the Mac n Cheese and the Asian Ribs.  The Slider was a little bit on the dry side, the Pickle Fries tasted like they got put in the deep fryer along with some fish as I've never had a pickle taste like fish before.  The Mac n Cheese was pretty good given the price and the Asian Ribs were very good.  I then ordered a Mojito and a Wild Mushroom flatbread whereas my brother ordered a BBQ Chicken Flatbread.  The Mojito that came out was very good as well as the two flatbreads that we had ordered.

    Finally we moved onto dessert......my favorite part of any meal.  I couldn't decide if I wanted their in house ice cream or their other handmade desserts.  Thankfully Houlihan's allows you to get a 3 or 5 piece sampler.  So I went with the 3 piece sampler ordering their Pecan Pie, the Snickers Ice Cream Dome, and the Banana Cream Pie.  Unfortunately, the had run out of the Banana Cream Pie so I had to substitute the Creme Brulee in.  The Pecan Pie was very good, the Snicker's Dome was good but I can find technically the same thing in a grocery store, and their Creme Brulee might just have been better than when I make it here at home.  Overall for the price and the food quality, I would recommend it to others.

    Houlihan's is awesome!  I love this feel of this place.  And the bartender looks like a young Sarah Michelle Gellar.

    This is a meat market.  Everything from SYTs to MILFs to Cougars.  Bring some game and you won't leave alone.

    I'm married so I just live vicariously through my single friends.  It's a spectator sport for me.

    The first time I ate at this location was a couple of years ago. My meal was forgettable (really - I don't remember what I had).  My daughter had the pot roast which was good, but expensive.

    Since then, I stayed away because I thought the prices were a bit much ($14 for pot roast? ).  I heard that they had good hamburgers, so I tried it again Saturday.

    I got the cheesy royal HB with extra secret sauce.  It was cheesy grilled deliciousness, as advertised.    I was pleased with the burger - but I'm still put off by the prices.

    I gotta bump up a star for this place. Their service for large parties is PHENOMENAL. They were attentive to my party of 12. Everything came out smoothly and they were so accommodating. They let us put up a banner for the bachelorette and offered to refrigerate our cake. The waiter didn't bat an eye when we all asked for separate checks. Everyone's drink were filled to the brim and the food was great. They made sure the vegetarian side of the table had meat free dishes and they made sure the carnivores were satiated.

    I was nervous about getting my deposit back ($10/head) but they were very understanding when it came to late-comers. In the end, I shouldn't have worried because I got it all back.

    If I ever have to plan a party again, I definitely keep this place in mind. :)

    Came here for the 2nd time ever. My sister and I love getting their small plates. This time we ordered the spinach dip with the lavosh crackers is MUST HAVE! Then we ordered the mac & cheese- another YUMMY dish! Then we also ordered the meatloaf slider (good), and burger slider (pass).

    Moving onto dessert. They were doing a promotion with a music program, so my sister and I supported it and ordered "the mix." We had a chocolate brownie stick (gross). The chocolate was not quality chocolate because it tasted disgusting. We also ordered 2 ice creams and it came in  these little one serving cups. We had the caramel macchiato (yum), and s'mores (ok).
    Most likely will come back again with my sister. This seems to be our go to place when we're sharing food

    Any place where the bartender spits fire is top notch in my book! We came here late (11p) for drinks and a snack. They had a late happy hour. The server was cool and laid back and took care of us. The bartender got an itch in his pants to spit fire. It was awesome.

    The food was mediocre. The spicy buffalo tenders came out warm, not hot. The nachos looked great, but there was an odd texture to the chicken. Loved the salsa, tho. Spinach dip was bomb!

    And music, come on guys, really? Did it need to be so loud? Even our server agreed and said he would ask to have it turned down. But I think after 3 songs, they cranked it back up. I had to give up on trying to hear what my table mates were screaming back and forth in their attempt to have a conversation.

    Whether sit-down or take out, it seems that the eating establishments that tend to have staying power are those that are flexible and adaptive.  It is this quality which brought Jack In The Box back from obscurity some 10-15 years ago, and Houlihan's benefits from this talent in the current review.  My first visit here certainly did not leave a four-star impression.  The food was somewhat forgettable (in fact, I don't really remember what I got that visit, except that I didn't like the fries).  I was prepared, thereafter, to simply relegate this establishment to obscurity, and never think of it again.  Except I started hearing things.  People were talking about new dishes, smaller less expensive dishes they were offering (from a so-called "small plates" menu).  And people were talking to me about their happy hour.  At which point I said to the 'people,' "stop drilling, you've hit oil!"

    Their happy hour is a bit of a thing of beauty - 1/2 off all house cocktails and $6 appetizers.  This is 4-11 pm mon. tue. & fri., and all day wed. & thur. And Tuesday they also have 1/2 off all bottles of wine.  I think that for the drink and appetizer specials, you have to sit in the bar area, or the patio.  This has never been an issue for me.  The drinks covered here include some great proprietary mixes.  My wife's favorite, for example, is the Georgia Peach - a Long Island Iced Tea made with peach schnapps and cranberry juice.  And the sliders on their appetizer menu are a real hit!  Tender, flavorful meat complemented by the aged cheddar topping it.

    Recently, I discovered they now have a brunch.  This cemented the final star in this review.  For $13 per person, you have all-you-can-eat of breakfast fare (buckwehat pancakes, sausage, bacon, biscuits and gravy), samplings from their small-dish menu (enchiladas, sliders, meatloaf, mashed potatoes), a carving station, and a pasta station which allows you to create your own dish. In addition, they have brunch drink specials on their Bloody Mary's and Mimosa flights. My last bruch visit there was thoroughly enjoyable.

    So if, like me, you had eaten here and written Houlihan's off, give them another try.  Come for happy hour, or come for brunch, or just sit and have lunch, and you might find yourself pleasantly surprised.

    Never had the food, but the drinks during happy hour are the best prices around. I love being about to walk out here without felling like I blew a paycheck. Go here during happy hour if you want to fell good and save money

    With Elite Yelper: TIffany D.

    Came here for the many starters/appetizers

    Decor: 4/5
    - Spacious dining area and seats

    Service: 3/5
    - Service was about average

    Food Presentation: 5/5 - Eye popping!
    Taste: 3/5
    -Avoid the desserts: White Chocolate Banana Creme Pie, Chocolate Cappuccino Cake & CRÉME BRÛLÉE. Yes! Avoid all three. You can go elsewhere for better!
    -Wild mushroom and Arugula flatbread was yummy
    -Bruschetta was meh, not exacting what I was expecting for the goat cheese.
    -Grilled Petite Atlantic Salmon

    I will be back to try their other starters.

    Another one of those family American-fusion restaurants?  That is what I thought, so I was definitely not expecting much.  The food here was pleasantly surprising, but the decor was indefinitely lacking character.  It was clean, sleek, and oddly reminiscent of every other Chili's, Friday's, and BJ's (which is conveniently located 2 doors down).  The menu is possibly even more "international" than Chili's; is that even possible?

    They offer a "small plate" menu, which I guess is equivalent to tapas-style dining, but with funky fusions, of course.  The prices on the small plates are pretty reasonable, as the entrees are simple and fairly expensive, therefore less satisfying.

    Everything was either well cooked, tasty, or somewhat unique.  The shrimp azteca had a sweet corn cake with pretty good grilled shrimp.  The po' boy slider had super-crunchy fried shrimp, and the pot roast slider had tasty beef and crispy onion rings.  The grilled salmon was alright.  The scallops were perfectly cooked with the right amount of char and seasoning.  So that is definitely a lot of things to go through, but two dishes especially stood out.

    Runner up:Pulled pork flat bread.  It had flavorful meat, not too much cheese, and a zippy cilantro pesto.  Awesome at $6.

    Winner: If you can believe it... Pasta Bolognese.  It was comprised of meat+noodles, quite literally.  The thick, but tender noodles were tossed in a rich ragu with meatball-sized chunks of meat.  How can you beat meat and noodles?  Oh, the price: a mere $6.

    This is a great choice and a step above your run-of-the-mill Margarita, Southwestern Eggroll, and Shrimp Scampi-serving kind of joint.  And it will not bust your budget.

    went to Houlihans on Valentine's Day with my wife after failing to secure our reservation at a much pricier restaurant. We didn't expect much from this " Notch above Friday's"  type grill. Our wait for the table was as promised 15-20 minutes. The hostess was very welcoming and led us to our booth. We both ordered from the Special Valentine's Menu, our server was apparently busy, another server stepped in and took our order. High level of team work from everyone around us. the other thing we noticed is the cleanliness of the restaurant.

    About the food... The French  Onion soup was the best we had in a very long time. My ordered the Fillet and the Lobster tail, I ordered the NY Strip and the Grilled shrimp , both were cooked to the right temperature and were properly seasoned. The asparagus side was great.

    overall it was a great experience and it saved me from a disastrous Valentines day.

    Houlihan's, what have you done?

    Houlihan's is another of those North of the Mason-Dixon line places that I thought I'd only rarely see again when I traveled to visit my family in the frozen North.

    I remember Houlihan's as a great casual dining restaurant with great food (best of what you would find as Chili's, Friday's, etc) AWESOME drinks, and drink specials.  I mean REALLY CREATIVE DRINKS.  One time, a few years ago, they had these GREAT holiday frozen drinks that had Hostess Ding-Dongs in the drinks.  I remember sucking down a bunch of those, getting sh*tfaced, and then annoying the hell out of my friends by going "Ding Dong Ding Dong" all the way home.  Those were the days.

    So, I was ecstatic when I saw that Houlihan's would be expanding into the D/FW area.  Alarm bells went off when I didn't recognize Houlihan's from the outside, but I wasn't going to let that stop me.  The valet parking seemed odd.  Valet parking at Houlihans?  OK, whatever.  When I saw the menu, I knew immediately what happened -- Houlihan's had gone faux-upscale.

    The creative drinks (with and without ding dongs) were replaced by lots of martinis.  Blah.  Where were the drink specials?  The menu was filled with faux-gourmet food.  Oh noes!  I wound up just getting chicken fingers (no, I didn't go to Houlihan's to get an Ahi Tuna Salad,) which were good, but the whole "big change" to a more "upscale" setting had me almost in tears.  Why, why did they take my Houlihan's away?

    I probably won't be back.  It hurts too much to think about what used to be.....sniff....sniff

    Food is good: a very long menu of food, and equally tall drinks specials menu. Appetizers, main course, salads, sandwiches, burgers and desserts for almost any craving any of your party wants that night.
    The unusual Mushroom Enchiladas were good, so the the Pot Roast, Fried and Grilled shrimp everyone else at my table had. French Onion Soup was good, except all the cheese ran down the outside of the bowl by the time it got to the table.
    Wait staff are slow, and they seem to have a no-tray policy so that might explain some (only some) of it. They do know how to fix a big mistake though, so they are not clueless (my main dish was comped due to a kitchen error, very cool).
    Will go back.

    Houlihan's is pretty pricey but they have some awesome food. They do have deals for appetizers and drinks on the patio during specific business hours, so if you need to save some money I would give them a call and ask about their specials.

    I've been here several times and most of the time I end up ordering appetizers because they are cheaper and really filling. Last time I was there I had the Thai chile glazed chicken wings with sesame-ginger sauce and Italian-style Donut Flight for dessert. Both were incredible!

    The inside of the restaurant is very modern/lounge-ish looking. Its really cool, but nothing beats sitting on the patio on a nice night.

    Take friends with you to Houlihan's! From my experience they enjoy large parties and are very accommodating.

    I've now been back twice more and both times had the Black Angus burger, once with asparagus and again with green beans as sides in leau of fries. Wow. I wasn't sure what to expect ordering a burger at a restaurant that doesn't have a drive-thru, but I was very pleased. Loved the smoky flavor of the medium (as ordered) half pound patty along with the cheddar and bacon. Glad to see it offered on a whole wheat bun as well. The menu says they cook over a wood burning grill and there is no doubt. Very flavorful.  

    Wait staff was a little slower than most places this time around but nothing to really complain about.

    I've been to the one in Addison, and of course the crowd is different, the place is the same. Good food, great strong drinks, large drink menu and cool bartenders.

    Best time to go is at 9pm, they have half off top shelf and long islands, can't beat that.

    You'll find me chillin at bar here often.

    This is a decent grill-type restaurant in the Arlington Highlands.  It's like a slightly nicer Chili's.  

    I tried a grilled chicken and onion quesadilla, and it was pretty good.  We also had the doughnuts for dessert, which were actually doughnut holes with two different glazes for dipping.  

    Everything was enjoyable, but nothing was outstanding.  The service was really good, and all their wines by the bottle are half price on Tuesday.  The patio is nice on a hot summer evening.  

    I'd come back on a night when I didn't feel like eating anything interesting.

    I came back for my birthday dinner with hubby and was disappointed. We ordered an appetizer which was brought out at the same time as our food. We had to request the runner to place it under the heat lamp while we ate our mini burgers. I got a NY strip steak and hubby got the Parmesan chicken. My steak lacked any sort of flavor, the asparagus was all shriveled up, and thankfully what saved the meal was the delicious mashed potatoes. I had to ask for A1 sauce which after slathering it on the slab of meat, was barely edible. Pretty bad if you ask me for a $20 something steak!

    We didn't have to wait very long for a table on a Saturday night, but once we were seated, the misery really set in. Our waitress was nothing short of terrible. We had to place requests several times for basic things such as a glass of water with our wine selection or for her to take away our plates (b/c we were seated at a tiny table).

    I really don't think the dinner prices are worth it... I'll stick to lunch at Houlihan's and happy hour specials. Big bummer... The service is spotty, but I'd give it another shot. I'd run for the border if I see that waitress again though. Too bad I didn't take a pic to upload it here so we could avoid her like the plague.
