The staff was courteous, the prices were good and the food was great. Our kids ate free (all day Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday). We were pleased by the variety of entree options. The facility was spotless, with a relaxed dining atmosphere.

We go to Houlihan's about once a month. We love their food and cocktails. Their menu is cute and fun to read. They add new dishes now and then, which we like. The menu has so many interesting options we always pick something new -so we've never had the same dishes twice, and they've all been good! Most of the servers have been great! One young lady was trying way too hard and that was kind of annoying and funny at the same time... but otherwise service is always good! We always look forward to going to Houlihan's, and we always leave happy.

Totally missed the mark as far as itâs hyped up in Columbus. We went for lunch and parked in their back lot. We ordered bone in and boneless white meat, one âcoldâ one âwarmâ or their code for not spicy and slightly spicy. The bone in was still moist, the boneless definitely not. The boneless was chewy. It was ok to good as far as fried chicken goes, definitely not the best or the worst. Why are they serving tons of white wonder bread with everything?! Make something special at least. The Mac and cheese was average, predominantly cheese and heavy. They give free tea, which is a nice touch. They donât have ketchup, just ranch, which is a bummer. Kind of a lackluster menu... if youâre going to only do one thing, you could definitely do it better. Basically looking around, this was a cheap college kid restaurant. Large portions of fried fatty food. Then, we go back to the car... they must have opened the sewer drain while we were in there, plus there was liquid running out of the pipe next to the manhole. I got in my car and wretched until I threw up because I couldnât drive away fast enough from the 90 degree humid sewage smell. They canât control that but the taste is in my mouth. I wonât be back after it all.

We were greeted quickly and seated right away (recommend reservations...it is a small place). My daughter had spicy fettucini and I had Shrimp and Grits. Both were very good.Service was spot on. This is an open kitchen so you could see the team working in the back and yet it wasn't as noisy as other "open kitchen" places I've been. We will be back!Thank you gabeh37 for your kind words! We are honored you chose to spend such a special day with us and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

While out for a drive I spied this food truck with a long line.. always a good sign! So, of course I stopped to see what the fuss was about. The crew handled the long line in no time and I was soon rewarded with the best BBQ in Columbus! So good it made me jump back in line to get some to bring home! I had the spare ribs and brisket with cole slaw, both meats were free of gristle and fork tender! The coleslaw was the perfect combination of sweet and tangy. The cost was moderate and the service was friendly. The only thing I would do next time is bring wet wipes!

Very "intimate" and excellent alternative natural foods establishment in a small strip center along a north-south artery parallel to I-71 north of OSU campus. Many raw food as well as cooked options. I had the vegetable curry soup, she had chilled broccoli/almond soup, we shared an appetizer guacamole with chips. Check out the regular menu as well as daily specials. For a sweet tooth, the best non dairy cheesecake varieties you'll encounter anywhere.

There were 7 of us and we were all first timers at Roosters. Everyone enjoyed their meals. We had chicken, subs, burgers, salad and everything was delicious. The meal has so many choices. The service was excellent. Roosters was a recommendation from friends who use to live in Columbus and it was an excellent recommendation. I wish we had Roosters where we live. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We had a great meal here and our server, Lori, was excellent! Started with the warm pretzel appetizer, which is served with beer cheese & a tangy mustard. We split a Caesar salad & the meatloaf entree, which comes with mashed potatoes. We had the peanut butter pie for dessert & it was AWESOME!!! This restaurant is casual, yet âfineâ....Our wine was served in crystal. Highly recommend this restaurant!

My family went to the restaurant for a birthday celebration dinner. Among the three us, one ordered the Hudson 29 Cheeseburger, the other ordered Langdale Farms NY strip. Both liked the food they ordered alright. I was told the string bean with the burger was OK but the vegetable with the steak was pretty good. Both gave a four-star rating. I ordered an appetizer Dip Trio (Hummus, Guacamole, Smoked Trout, Warm Tortilla Chips) and a House Salad to that I gave a three-star. The salad was OK but nothing special; the Dip Trio was different but the dips did not taste fresh enough to me. The hummus was a bit too salty; the smoked trout is dry and salty. The more difficult issue for us was the table that we were seated - the last table at the south side - was so cold that we ran out of there as soon as we finished our food. Cold air blew out from somewhere; two of us had to keep our jacket on the whole time. I was so cold that I ordered hot water to drink. Although it was a weekday, we did make a reservation; I wished we were seated at a better location which would make our dinner more pleasant. We have been going there for birthday dinner for the last few years but this year was a bit disappointing for me.We appreciate your feedback bi22016! We are sorry you didn't have a 5 star experience and are grateful you have chosen to spend such a special day with us for the last few years. You comments have been passed along to the management staff and we truly appreciate your support!
