Food was excellent, especially the steak and salad. My companion had the salmon and said it was wonderful. Service was excellent and prices were $10-$20 for most entrees.

Took my son and girlfriend out to houlihans. We were in a cheery mood and hungry. Our server was distracted, acted sad and disinterested and pretty much ignored us. That plus the flood from broken toilets in ladies room took the edge right off our experience.

Houlihan's is actually a national chain that sells franchises. You would think that the one in Hershey and it's connection to the Hershey Entertainment and Resorts giant would make this location something really special. Based on that, I was pretty disappointed at the menu. Don't get me wrong...the service is great and the food is good...it just isn't as specatacular... More

Great food, great service and great atmosphere. No wonder this place is always busy...you definitely want to go here when visiting the "sweetest place on earth".

It is an upscale restaurant located in downtown Hershey that has a great menu with many great entrees salads and appetizers. I had the rack of baby back ribs with asparagus and mashed potatoes which were the best potatoes I've eaten ever! The server was very attentive and the place was extremely busy!!!

We had a group of seven, and had a wonderful dinner. I am a vegetarian and there were plenty of choices, and they were well labeled.

We go to Houlihan's several times a year and several times a year they make menu changes. We were not happy with the most recent changes. The food served is basically the same (grilled baby asparagus, pilaf, rich mashed potatoes). but the menu configuration and prices have changed. No more special selection of meals for the smaller appetite or small... More

Had the crab cakes (good, but the smallest lump cakes I have ever had). The staff were very nice and they had a good beer selection. If I had my choice again, I would go next door to Devon Seafood.

Our group of seventeen dined at Houlihan's last night and while some people in our group had a pleasant experience (and even commented on how much they liked it), my experience was terrible. When we arrived, they would not let us get seated until more than half of our group arrived, despite the fact that there was no one waiting... More
