The location was really easy to find and you can't miss the sign coming from the road or from if you're in the mall Service is incredible... For appetizers, we had the stuffed mushrooms which were outstanding. There were stuffed with garlic and cream cheese, and then with a horseradish dipping sauce. Main course we had the creole PASTALAYA. It was a perfect amount of creaminess yet not too heavy. They had live music ( Jayson Kayne) which surprised me on a Tuesday. His vocals were incredible, unfortunately, they were a little bit, drowned out by the saxophone sometimes, but it was still a delightful surprise, considering I've never seen them or been to Houlihan's in a long time. Great experience will definitely go back read more

I was welcomed in and seated quickly. I ordered a house salad. She brought it out in less than 5 minutes. It was fresh and cold. Salad was delicious and had enough dressing for salad. She refilled my drink. Then I submitted my birthday coupon. She took the code and then came back and the said the manager stated it needed to be on an entree. I read the coupon before ordering and after our experience. It stated $15.00 off food purchase not off entree. I was disappointed but paid. I think it needs to state entree vs food purchase. read more

Houlihan's isn't your only choice in OP, but it's a really good one. Whether you're there during a time for lunch, dinner, or happy hour, you have lots of choices. Houlihan's drink specialties are pretty first-rate. Happy hour is a daily occurrence, whether it's longer hours in the bar or on the patio, or earlier hours on the weekends, you have a pretty good window. Mules, mojitos, or margaritas for $6-$7? Sign me up! Lots of shareables are on the happy hour list, not the least of which are their famous Houlihan's 'shrooms or their spicy crusted cauliflower. The dining room is pretty spacious and check out their dinner menu, because it has some proven winners. My lovely wife is a diehard enthusiast of their Tuscan white bean salad, a stack of greens and beans encircled in a flavorful basil oil. The presentation matches the flavor and you can sub out this as a side for one of their main dishes. I also would give a hat tip to the stuffed chicken breast, a crispy breast stuffed with an herbed cheese blend and nestled up against Yukon mashies. So good! The staff is friendly and generally responsive, the drinks are made to order and come quickly, and the whole experience is pretty solid. It's the suburbs, so parking is easy, the prices are pretty much on average to what the market is like out here, and the name Houlihan's still carries some panache. It's not the only game in town, but it's a pretty good one, so give it a serious look. read more

I'll start by saying the food was great. I had a seasonal dish, the Chicken Gnocchi Rustico and tried the Meatloaf. Both were very flavorful and delicious. However, the place in general was dirty. I went to the restroom which looked like it hadn't been serviced in days and after the people left the booth across from us, they cleaned it off and put new silverware out, but there was still a napkin on a seat and several pieces of trash under the table. Our service was okay but pretty slow given that it wasn't really busy. read more

Stopped in here with some friends for an evening meal. Service at the table was prompt and helpful with suggestions. Drink order came out in a quick order as well as food. I got the chicken parm and it was cooked to perfection and was a large portion. Only complaint I heard from our table was some of the food was a bit under seasoned. read more

First time at this Houlihans location. We were seated quickly and our server was friendly and even brought me some simple syrup for my iced tea, as she agreed with me that sugar doesn't really dissolve will in the cold tea. I had the meatloaf, which was more a mustard glazed, rather than a ketchup glazed loaf that I'm used to. While it wasn't bad, it wasn't as good as other meatloafs I've eaten. I tried a bite of my wife's pot roast and noted that I will order it next time. It was very tasteful. read more

Had a free appetizer coupon to use at Houlihans Oak Park. Used to enjoy going here. Food always good. Server nice enough. Beautiful Sunday decided to enjoy patio. Noticed they now have a "play set area" for kids: blocks to build while parents wait for their food. Of course family arrived, kids loudly played, blocks tumbling, parents mostly ignored them til realized how loud they were being, Since when did Houlihans become a daycare center, seriously now bars /restaurants have to accommodate kids? read more

Great food / outstanding service 2nd to none!!! Staff is outstanding / very attentive / extremely friendly!!!

We had the prime rib and the Kansas City burger and they were both really delicious. The prime rib was flavorful and cooked perfectly. My husband's burger was cooked as he liked and flavorful and tender. Jim, the manager was personable and ensured that we had a good experience. The ambiance was great overall. read more

Food - French Onion Soup may be best in town but for French Market/Cafe Provence Service - Good at the bar at least Ambiance - Dark Bar vibes Came back on 8/28/24 for ONLY the french onion soup (avoid the Mac and Cheese) this time. Delivered well for a quick mid-afternoon bite with an Iced tea of sorts. Great soft in-the-broth croutons, and caramelized onions, plenty of seared cheese on top and around the bowl, great broth taste. read more

Greeting from the host was warm and inviting, the gentleman had a nice smile and positive attitude. Our server on the other hand, she couldn't care less about her customers or her tips! She left us unattended for 90% of our visit which frustrated me beyond belief! It's never the hosts responsibility to hunt down a server but she literally left us with no other choice. I chose to come to Houlihan's specifically for their mock-tail offerings, they have two. Both were horrendous!!! I had informed the server at the very beginning of our visit that I would like to order soup after having my drinks, she took all of our menus, dirty dishes, etc at one point and just never returned. read more

We enjoyed our dinner - food and service were both good. My husband had the prime rib, mac & cheese and asparagus, plus a caesar salad. I had the prefix dinner with fried mushrooms as an appetizer, the scallops & risotto as dinner and crème brûlée for dessert. I had a French 75 as well & it was excellent. It was a little pricey, but we had a nice evening. We are going back on Christmas! read more

As for a bonus, they definitely know how to strike up fun conversations with you! I absolutely highly recommend! read more

I wanted a light lunch and decided to try the soup and salad option. I started with fried mushrooms which were ok. The filling was a bit salty but when combined with the mushroom and the batter it was a nice balance. I didn't like the dipping sauce at all. The salad was good with crisp veggies and the dressing on the side so I could control how much is used. The loaded potato soup was very salty. The soup base itself tasted like pure salt and nothing else. The toppings made it a little better but I couldn't finish the bowl. I switched to the chicken tortilla soup which wasn't salty but had no real flavor. Maybe I should have ordered an entree instead of soup because based on this experience I won't be back. My server was great! He's the reason I gave my experience 3 stars. read more

My and my girlfriend went to the Leawood location. We both ordered soup and salad (quick lunch right)? We got our soup and they picked up our dishes. We sat there for at least 20 minutes, maybe longer. Long enough that the table next to us got seated. Got their salad. Ate it. And was brought the check. First the waitress came to us and said I'm going to check on your soup and see what is taking so long. We said we already got our soup. She said oh yeah right. Maybe 5-10 minutes later our salad comes out. The waitress asked if we needed anything else. I said yes, we need to have something comped this took a long time and the table next to us got their food before us (which was a salad as well). No apology. She proceeded to explain why our salad took longer??? I had a chicken salad and my girlfriend had a salmon salad. Longer maybe - 30+minutes? Unacceptable. By this time the manager came over. He wasn't overly helpful or concerned. I explained the scenario and said I also work in hospitality. He said he would take the salad off and also explained "why" our salad took a long time. I immediately asked for a box (because I could not eat the salad as I lost my appetite). If hospitality is not your specialty, you should not be a server. read more

Salmon, mashed potatoes and grilled salmon...all served HOT which is a must for us. Server Molly had a smile each time she checked on us though she did ring in the wrong white wine the error was righted immediately. That was followed up with manager Jim offering a dessert for the error. Hadn't been to this Houlihan's recently but will return soon! ADDED BONUS: live music on the patio with doors wide open on a beautiful evening so folks inside could enjoy as well. read more

We started in the bar for Happy Hour ordering drinks and spinach artichoke& chips. I try to choose a variety of drinks each visit. Spicy Blackberry margarita on Friday. Husband sticks with Yuengling drafts. Except ordering painkiller on occasion after dinner substitute for dessert. But mainly orders fabulous desserts. Our Center alumnus arrived and we transfered the bill to our dining room space. Our group meets at the Leawood location We are saddened that their lease was not renewed. Our grads come from all over the metro area and utilize the many interstate accesses. Wait service, all employees are courteous, knowledgeable and personalized each customer even accommodating substitutions. Many questions are always a given when meeting a large groups orders and indecisiveness. When asked a waiters suggestion for the evening...they offer 2-3 possibilities .We have never been disappointed with our order, temperature, portion, to go boxes and to go cups. The atmosphere, cleanliness but primarily it's the employees that make a lunch or dinner satisfying. Prices for meals,drinks are appropriate for the quality of service. We have been loyal customers since our college years. We will celebrate our 50 th May 15. Will plan on celebrating at the Oak Park location perhaps with a few family members and friends. We will miss the Leawood employees and the kindness shown over the years. We wish them well for their futures. read more

This was our second visit this month to Houlihan's & we feel like we found our favorite chain restaurant here. Service both times was fantastic. We have 2 little kids & have felt very comfortable there with them, plus, their kids meal comes with ice cream, which is nice. Food wise, we have ordered appetizers of Seared Ahi, Fancy Fried Cheese & Avocado Chicken Eggrolls. The Fried Cheese is so good with the sauces it comes with. My husband ordered Fish & Chips, which comes with really interesting fries, they are like little clouds. The tartare sauce is so good. The bonus here is they give you a scratch off at the end of your meal, it's guarantied to give you either $10 off, free dessert or free appetizer on your next visit! read more

We went to Houlihans today for an early Mother's Day dinner and for Happy Hour. We sat in the bar area inside and had a great server named Peter, we appreciated his service and asking if we would like any more items before Happy Hour was over! We had dinner as well and I appreciate that they have gluten free buns. I had their French Dip with a gluten free bun and their sweet potato fries with ranch dip. My meal was pretty good, the meat was a little tougher than I would have liked. My husband had their wings that are always excellent. He had a white sangria that was good and I had their mango ginger martini which is excellent. The sound level is normal and we sat in a corner booth so it was especially nice. I like that they have indoor and outdoor seating. read more

I've always enjoyed Houlihan's. Unfortunately, this time was different. Took about 10 minutes before a server took drink orders. The restaurant was also not busy at all. Then after ordering 3 club sandwiches with fries (not difficult) it took nearly 40 minutes before our food was delivered. Our server disappeared for 25 minutes & we watched our food sit under the hot lamps for at least 10 minutes (while other servers looked them over & didn't deliver them!) until I asked the hostess to please check on our order. By this time the fries were tough & the crust on all our sandwiches were hard and inedible. No "sorry" or anything else...nope, won't be going here again. read more

We came on a Sunday around 4 and no wait. The food was good and the staff was very friendly.

Our server Eric was amazing and took great care of us! Only came in for drinks and an app, but he made sure we had everything we needed!

Arrived at Houlihan's one hour before close. The restaurant was clean & pretty typical to others like Applebees or Outback Steakhouse. My partner & I sat and tried to order quickly. Our waiter was attentive & swift in taking care of service. Unfortunately there was something odd about the timing of our meals. Though the venue was nearly empty of patrons, it had taken about a half hour before we got our food. Order placed around 9:15pm served to our table by about 9:45pm. Our food (though pretty basic & simple) was of quality standard & delicious. I would recommend this restaurant, however be wary of arriving when it's at least an hour before closing. (I had the chicken parmesan, partner had Kansas City burger- photos included) read more
