Server was super friendly, service by the waiter and hostess was top notch. Would recommend

This Houlihan's location is my favorite. I've come here with friends and family, but also alone! They have the sweetest staff and it's always cozy in here. Just stopped by the other day after shopping at the mall, and our food came out fresh, flavorful and quick. I think this is one of those restaurants where it really feels worth it to spend your eat-out time & money at. I will always recommend houlihan's. Keep killing it! read more

Houlihan's delivered a fantastic dining experience from start to finish, leaving everyone in our party thoroughly impressed with their meals. My standout dish was the bourbon salmon, featuring a perfectly cooked 7-ounce piece of fish paired with rich mashed potatoes and garlic green beans. It was an absolute win on every level- something i haven't had at a restaurant in a while. The service was equally great; I lost count of how many iced teas I went through, but our server never let my glass sit empty for a moment. A massive shout-out goes to the front-of-house team as well. Our party size expanded right before we sat down but the hostess handled the sudden change effortlessly, accommodating us without hesitation even in the middle of a busy dinner rush. The staff here is a super awesome crew that knows how to treat guests right. The only minor downside to the evening was the sound level. While the music selection itself was great, the volume was turned up just a notch too high, making it a bit tricky to carry on a normal conversation across the table. Beyond that single noise issue, it was a stellar visit, and we will definitely be back. read more

Houlihan's - Bourbon salmon - Bars Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

It's been several years since my last visit, but walking in made it clear why this spot has been a Kansas City staple for decades. The space was busy, but spotless, the servers are attentive and luckily we got in before the big dinner rush. ​While I'd usually go straight for their famous stuffed mushrooms, I wanted something lighter and opted for the grilled salmon BLT. It's on the daintier side, but paired with a reasonable portion of crispy fries, it suited my appetite just fine. The salmon was solid and the bacon was properly crisp--always a win in my book--though the bread could have shade one more shade of toast for better texture. ​Unfortunately, the bar is where things fell completely flat. Normally, a couple of craft cocktails would do the trick, but these tiny pours felt like Glass Joe in Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!--zero impact. The bourbon special, Midnight Harvest, used a mid-tier bourbon and had an odd, cloying sweetness and just didn't work on my palate. Next up was their signature mojito, served in the smallest glass I've ever seen for a mojito, noticeably lacking in "spirit", and missing the icy chill and flavor it desperately needed. ​One quick note on the atmosphere: they featured a jazz singer with a genuinely great voice, but management needs to knock the volume down a couple of notches. It was incredibly hard to hold a conversation, and at the end of the day, this is a restaurant, not a jazz club. ​Surrounding entrees looked great, and despite the drink disasters and the loud music, it was still a okie dokie meal. read more

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

Went in to try their bourbon month menu and I was pleasantly surprised! The bourbon glazed wings were so good with a sweet maybe peach sauce. And the burger was fabulous. Messy but flavorful. I tried the Midnight bourbon drink. A little sweeter but I'm not a big bourbon fan. Houlihan's is consistent. Staff was friendly and it got busy at lunch. Could use some updates in the dining area to feel a little more elevatrd 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

Been going here for years, this place is pretty consistent. AJ was our server tonight and he was great!! Everything went exactly how you want it to go. 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

Ordered fish & chips. The coleslaw was tasteless. The fish was hard on the inside hardly able to cut it with the steak knife they supplied. Took three bites and could not stomach any more. This for the low price of $19. Is this Houlihan's on the same path as the one that closed? I'm done with them. Wouldn't the waiter or manager say something when a customer leaves their entire meal? Isn't that a clue that something is wrong? It just felt like Houlihan's didn't care. Probably why the restaurant was mainly empty. read more

Michael was a great waiter. Personal and friendly. Very attentive. Was very good refilling naughty naughty drink​

Every time I come to Houlihans, I'm met with great food and great service! The service from all staff is amazing, but in particular, Samantha (Sam) has been absolutely wonderful. She alway is timely, has an inviting personality, and really cares about the people she is taking care of. We've come in with larger groups before and she never drops the ball when working with a larger party. She seems to love serving people and we love being sat with her anytime we come in! read more

Okay, I normally don't give bad reviews but this one stands out. I'm a foodie and have a diverse pallet and I am also a cook. This one of the worse meals I've ever had even for the price. The service was horrible and the server just dropped the food off and didn't ask is there was anything else she could get me or ask if everything was okay. The Wagoo meatloaf was bland to the taste and gross in texture. I sent it back and the manager came out to see what was wrong with the food? I asked her to taste it an she said that it tasted like it was suppose to, I said well then I'll go with the prime rib. I requested it Medium rare and with fresh horse radish and au juice on the side. She dropped the food without either and didn't ask if there was anything else she could get. She came back 10min later and stared at me and asked if everything was alright. I said where is the au juice and horseradish? She ran off and didn't come back for another 5 minutes by this time my food was cold. I proceeded to eat the mashed potatos had no flavor and tasted like potato vomit, The only thing that was really good was the horseradish, The Poor service, lousy food, Big stomach ache after dining. I won't be back. read more

went to happy hour to have a bite to eat and conversation Food & drink and service was good but it was very hard to have a conversation with the entertainent SOOOO LOOOUUD.

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

service was great, spinach and artichoke dip was wonderful, drinks were wonderful, but do they taste their food? We left so disappointed in the quality and taste of our main meal. The prime rib was gristly and the lemony chicken with Alfredo tasted like a microwaved piece of frozen chicken. We did our best and managed to eat about half of our food. Then the bill came. With tip (as I said the sevice was great), our dinner for two ran about $150. That is only an issue because the food was so low quality. read more

This was my first time at a Houlihan's. I had dinner with 2 other friends. I'm not sure if it was just an off night but it took over 10 minutes for our table to be greeted then another 5+ minutes for our drinks to come out to us. It did seem like the server had gotten a few tables close together so I'm sure he was busy. However, the service was probably the best part of our visit. We started off with the Spinach Artichoke Dip. The bread it comes with is interesting and not bad but we decided to ask for some tortilla chips to try with the dip as well. The chips were pretty bland and the only thing I could taste was the oil they were cooked in and it seemed like it was a little dirty from the flavor. Once we got our main meals, we noticed quickly that our experience was going down hill. I ordered the prime rib dip and the sandwich came out like warm and the meat was so dry even the au jus didn't help. My fries were slightly cold to the touch, not warm at all. One of my friends was happy with his pot roast dinner which did look delicious and appealing. Although, my other friend ordered the filet with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. Her steak was ordered medium rare but came out with parts of it well done other parts medium well then the center almost rare. To be fair you could tell the steak was an odd cut that likely made for uneven cooking. The mashed potatoes tasted watered down and the Mac and cheese tasted like you could get it from Pizza Hut. Generally we had a good time enjoying each other's company and making light of time and joking around. Our server only came to the table probably 4 times total the whole meal which would have been fine but we didn't get to say anything about our food quality because we had already eaten what we were going to of it. The general vibe of the restaurant was very nice and it seemed quite clean. I would say that sitting at the far wall away from the bar where the live music was playing helped with noise but I'm sure the music might have even a little loud for anyone closer to it. Overall, I feel that this could have just been an off night and might try again to give them a full chance but I believe that with their menu pricing, the food and service should be far better quality. (No hate to the server, it seemed like maybe they were understaffed or did a poor job with delegating sections for servers.) read more

We had the prime rib and the Kansas City burger and they were both really delicious. The prime rib was flavorful and cooked perfectly.

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
