   As expected it was busy with the holiday. I made a reservation and when I arrived, they were about 15 minutes behind. We were directed to the bar to wait, which was fine. I ordered the Mai Thai which was very good. Our server was phenomenal, very upbeat and pleasant. I ordered from the Valentine's Day menu: the Blackened salmon, which wasn't blackened at all. I think it was undercooked to be honest. Everything else - potato souffle, brussel sprouts, appetizers - crab & shrimp dip, prime rib egg rolls were absolutely delicious. My guest ordered the twin filet mignonettes & enjoyed the meat as well. Based on the experience, I would recommend & return. I would not order the salmon though.

   Went on Valentines day with my wife and daughters. It was busy, and they seemed short staffed and a little unprepared. BUT, the server was very nice and the food was fantastic.

   We did attend this reservation! I wanted to change the reservation from 4:45 to 5:00pm, but the system was not working online and wouldn’t let me change the reservation. Nathan P was our server and we had stuffed chicken dinner and salad. We love Houlihan’s in Firewheel. I hope we get our 100 points for this dine!!!

   We love the Firewheel Houlihan’s! The stuffed chicken breast with potatoes and green beans is delicious! The tomato-basil soup and house salad is a favorite. Recently, we discovered the Creme Brûlée. So creamy and delicious! The service is always great as well.

   The mushrooms were great. The potatoes with the fish and chips were also great. The fish was good, not great. The cole slaw was mediocre at best. The service was perfect for the occasion

   This was Christmas Day at lunchtime and the were very busy. Service was very good and fast. All the food was good, except for the Twice Baked Potato side dish; it was bland.

   Our first visit to Houlihans and staff was courteous and accommodating to our requests and professional throughout our time in the restaurant. It was spacious, appetizers were excellent and food very good for the price. We will be return customers.

   Wonderful food (stuffed chicken, mashed potatoes, asparagus, salad, soups and crème brûlée) and exceptional, friendly service (Kyle). We love Firewheel Houlihan’s.

    We hadn’t been to Houlihan’s in years but enjoyed it back then. Last night was a huge disappointment! It was cold in the restaurant, service was slow and the food was not good. My scallops/ risotto was meh… not like I remembered it! My husband’ ribs were dry and not flavorful. Our friend’s salmon salad was okay. The appetizers were okay. Just okay not good. I was really looking forward to this diner but left very disappointed ☹️
