   I love Houlihan’s! Great food and great service! Our server, a mother of three (can’t remember her name) was fantastic! I Chad the KC strip steak and it was seasoned perfectly! One of my sons had a Bavarian pretzel and it was delicious. I normally don’t drink alcohol, but had a couple of red wine sangrias and they were delicious. Our server recommended the blonde cake dessert and it was fantastic! My wife had the prime rib and she loved it. What a wonderful place to enjoy Mother’s Day with the best server in Columbus (my sons both said she was “easy on the eyes”).

   At Houlihan’s Upper Arlington, OH (seems my original review was edited to San Francisco). Ordered Strip steak, they only told us they had none as they brought out other meals. Asked if we wanted a different steak (sirloin) or something else but had staff waiting with the sirloin steaks plated (really no choice). Steak was overcooked. This was a bad experience. They brought me my sides as they made a new steak but never gave me silverware. Steak undercooked when they finally brought it out. Very disappointed.

   We had a nice server and the food was decent. The thing that bothered me was how dirty the restaurant seemed. Our table was so sticky and the bathrooms were disgusting. The floors were also sticky; I just had a yuck kind of feeling the whole time. Unfortunately this will probably keep me away from this restaurant for a while.

    The food was amazing the service was but phenomenal. They have this server that has the best energy she was amazing I wish I could remember her name because I would shout her out. Anyway she was amazing, she made you feel like family. One of the servers I have ever had and I have had some good ones, but this waiter was on a different level. Please if anyone knows this waiter or can find her I would appreciate it. I was there 4/19 I had reservation for 15 and she was my server. I just want to say to her you are amazing at what you do don’t let anyone dim the bright light that you have because I enjoyed just being I. Your company. Thank you deserve an award and because for you I will be back.
