Houlihan's

Ok but nothing to write home about.

Conveniently located a step away from my favorite hotel in town. Houlihan's is always on my checklist for the bar food menu and those tasty appetizers. Fish taco's with ahi tuna isn't on the menu but a few extra bucks and you are in business for a great bite. Disco fries is a sad twist on the poutine but brings an interesting flavor.

In general, I'm a fan of Houlihan's, particularly their martini flights. Unfortunately, this one wasn't up to par. They were very understaffed and very busy. (Our server was incredibly friendly and apologetic, though.) They were out of a lot of things, including bread. One moment of weirdness was being told they don't have pitchers (of beer), and then immediately after seeing a pitcher go by (of long island iced tea, but still). The martinis for the martini flights were still delicious. I expected a hotel restaurant to be better prepared for crowds, though, particularly on a Saturday night.
