Open, airy, pleasant restaurant...it's what most of us would expect from the Houlihan's chain! Food and service was nothing to "rave" about, but overall it was not bad. Food was a little pricey for the quality. read more

Love Houlihans in Hershey, even though they are technically a chain they offer some really different, exciting dishes! This last time we went my husband had pot roast mac n cheese with a soft pretzel bread stick - amazing! I kept sneaking bites off of his dish! I had a good old fashioned burger and fries and it was also delicious. They don't skimp on the fries and the bun was really good and also huge. My favorite part of dinner here are the martini flights, they are super addicting - especially the mandarin one! I could drink that like juice. We also enjoyed the cappuccino cake which was a special - my husband is not a dessert eater and he was inhaling this: chocolate cake with espresso icing and coffee ice cream. It was to die for! Can't wait to return.I will say (becuase i'm nosy) the man next to us got a small steak with mashed potatoes and veggies and there was like nothing on his plate. I even heard his girlfriend say to him "that's not a lot of food". They were also a little stingy on the pot roast in my hubby's mac n cheese. It was few and far between (probably to keep the cost of the dish reasonable but still it was the first item in the dish's description). My only advice is do not go if you are in a time pinch - all three times i've gone the wait has been estimated to be an hour. Now we've never waited an entire hour but they don't take reservations so you could potentially sit awhile. That only speaks for how popular they are but if you have other plans you may not have the time to wait. I also love that they run one of the few recork programs to recycle wine corks! read more

Well to complete my weekend in Hershey, I was the most impressed. This place made my trip. Great employees from hostesses to servers, great food, beautiful inside and out. Decent prices. Highly impressed here. The stuffed mushrooms are out of this world, very busy, little wait time, food came quick. Highly recommend to anyone coming into Hershey read more

My favorite restaurant in the area! Their drinks and food are excellent. Try the Long Island Iced Teas. The potato soup is yummy and their side salads are generous. You can get small plates or regular sized entrees. This place gets busy, especially if there is somethiing going on at the park (aka a Hershey Bears game or a concert). read more

Houlihans is one of the only good restaurants Hershey has to offer. Their money is big, and the food is always good. I highly recommend Houlihans. It's not too expensive either. read more

Nice place, was really busy. Service was great, food was really good. They had a gluten free menu. I would go back.

I was a bit disappointed. Service was fine but the food was kind of meh. We had fish tacos which didnt have much of a taste and fish was had a really thick crust. I was thinking it will be slightly lighter fare but nope. I mean you can fry the heck out everything, but it takes some skill to do it so that you can still guess what was the product to begin with. The chips were good. Probably should have ordered burgers or flatbreads. Kids liked their food though the carrot sticks and ranch dressing never materialized BUT they offer a nice variety of sides for kids, including fresh fruit and let you choose ice cream or apple sauce at the end. Kudos for that. read more

Very good food. The menu has a nice variety of options. Everything our table ordered came out good. The fish tacos were a little too stuffed. Made for a messy bite. A special nod to the soups. Perfect chicken tortilla and delicious roasted tomato. Most chicken tortilla soups I've had out are way too salty. I was pleased with our service. The waitress was attentive and good with the kids. read more

Well it was about 90 out today (at least), and I appreciated the fact that they were pumping some AC inside! I really like restaurants/bars with high ceilings, so I liked the way the restaurant looked inside. The service was on point, and the food was great! I had the b b que slider/pot roast slider combo, and it was amazing! This was a nice touristy spot! read more

This was the best restaurant we ate at in Hershey! Great service, big menu. Half price appetizers and speciality drinks.

Food was played on dirty dishes. We had filthy silverware. French fry was in the onion soup Had to send the food back... Drinks stayed empty much of the time. read more

Mediocre food, including Kraft Mac and cheese, ice cream from a Styrofoam cup, and Mediocre food all around. Salad also had way too many fried noodles. read more

Bleh. Ordered to go after shopping and I'm pretty sure their buffalo bleu salad was ordered from Wendy's. Fake congealed bacon, store bought croutons, iceberg lettuce, tasteless ranch dressing, sweetish tasting buffalo sauce and old purple onions. The chicken egg rolls had no flavor and served with tasteless salsa (apparently they don't think salt helps give flavor to pasty tomato salsa). read more

The ribs are to die for! I have gotten them before and they are just like I remember. The waitress was nice. She even let us know the concert was canceled. read more

It was a busy night so we sat at the bar to eat. The food was delicious. The bartenders were very attentive & friendly.

The grilled romaine and steak salad was one of the best salads I have ever eaten! I hope it stays on the menu! Nathan gave us spectacular service! read more

On vacation in Hershey and wanted to just go to a chain for a consistent meal. The restaurant and food was good - server was terrible. Right from the start when he just stood at our table and we were suppose to know that meant we should order up until the abrupt end of our meal when he finally brought refills - which is when he dropped soda all over our remaining food. Wasn't worth talking to the manager - they know who they hired. read more

My salad came out the same time as my meal. Defeats the purpose of an appetizer. Both, my girlfriends and my meal were cold. Hers came back as a new plate. Mine was still cold. My meal was not filling for $18. I was hungry 2 hours later. Also, the tables are too close together. The table to my right backed his chair up and hit our table. He still had trouble getting out of his chair. The table to my left, I had to turn sideway to get out. I'm 5'11 and 210 pounds. This was one of the worst meals ever. Our waitress was very nice and pleasant. I still tipped her generously as this was not her fault. read more

Don't let the concept of a chain restaurant fool you, Houlihans is great! They have a wide variety on the menu and I've never had a bad meal here. I love the happy hour specials! Their pitchers of long island iced teas are a great deal. I love the "small plates" section of the menu because you can try a little of each dish from the menu for a small price. I've ordered the mac n' cheese, arugula pizza, chicken nachos, french fries, salads and a few chicken entrees; all very tasty! In general, the entree prices are very reasonable. The service is also great! The staff is friendly and easygoing. The restaurant gets very crowded and can be pretty noisy, but that's to be expected for the volume of customers. Also, the food comes out fairly quickly, which is good if you're going there for a business lunch or after work. read more

always pleased with houlihans!! it's a go-to for dates, kids, work gatherings... everything. they have a scratch kitchen, so it's all made there and fresh, and delish. I've never been disappointed by their food! I love the minis they do - either drinks, apps, or desserts. here's the problem -- it gets SO full and can be really loud!! read more

The food was very good. I had the chicken enchiladas and they were amazing. My daughter did not like her spaghetti off the kids meal, very plain and bland. Overall it was really good. read more

Generally pretty good. Decent burgers, clean and pleasant atmosphere, staff was friendly and attentive. Prices are a little high for the quality of the food, but not terrible - three of us (adults) ate for $50 plus tip. read more

The service at Houlihan's is always top-notch and I've always had great food. I highly recommend any of the desserts. Even your basic sandwiches are well-presented, fresh and a good value. This Houlihan's is at a great location in the beautifully-restored Hershey Press Building in the square of Hershey. Parking is very convenient as there is a large parking garage next door with plenty of handicap parking. read more

This a beautiful place and the food never disappoints! Just one thing to remember, don't stop in after 11pm if you like pleasant service. There is a limited, but tasty, menu, however, most of the servers act as if you are seriously inconveniencing them by sitting at their tables. Stick to lunch and dinner. read more

Great appetizers. Thai shrimp and chicken wings good combo. Meat loaf is outstanding. I'll be back for more.

Yum!!! We love eating here! The price is good the food is great. I don't think I have ever not liked something I got there! My favorite is the chicken parmigiana is the best!!! The side of pasta has Alfredo sauce and the chicken red sauce and melted mozz cheese. It is so yummy...and HUGE read more

Swung in after shopping at the outlets. Great atmosphere. A little pricy. Food was good. Had to wait quite some time for a table. Service was good. Nice place. I would go back. read more

Just had a good experience at Houlihan's. We've been here before and it has been ok, but nothing great. Today was really good. The service, which has been a little lacking on previous visits was super today. Props to our server Nathan D. He did a nice job. Food is always top notch, and I HIGHLY recommend the Thai chile wings. My wife had Korean chicken lettuce wraps which were also outstanding. Our kids cleaned their plates, the beer was ice cold and the white sangria was also quite refreshing. Good spot for families. Try it. read more

They have great selection for people with food allergies. I'm gluten and dairy intolerant and they are very accommodating. The food is good too. This is my new favorite nearby allergy friendly restaurant. read more

Everything had cilantro and for those people who don't like please don't go there. Asked if I could have it not included and the waitress said that's how it comes prepared. I couldn't eat it so my wife gave me her chicken parmigiana instead. The chicken parm was served with alfredo sauce instead of the red sauce that was on the chicken parm. Won't ever go back. read more

Disappointing. There were three of us for lunch and no one was satisfied with their meal. The in the tacos was described as "slimy" and the Korean chicken was overcooked. The cheeseburger that was ordered as well done was bright pink and needed to be sent back. Ten minutes later a black hockey puck was presented with apologies from the waitress. Clearly the cook was letting us know what he thought about asking for a cooked burger. The manager never stopped to ask how our meal was or to apologize for the burger (those who ordered the fish and chicken didn't complain, but half and quarter eaten meals should have been a clue). We've eaten here in the past with no complaints, maybe the kitchen was having an off day, but at the burger (inedible x two) should have been removed from the check. read more

My family ate at the restaurant before heading to Hershey park. We sat outside and our table was dirty and there was food on the floor underneath our table. I had to complain to the manager twice. My meal arrived and it was the Salmon, and to my surprise it was so tiny. The size to feed a small child. The waitress said sorry but the 5oz is the only size they offer. But does it have to be so small! And the mash potatoes portion was also tiny. The food taste great just not filling. I would not recommend this place. I won't be going back read more

Not a bad experience. Had a good dinner. Good and cold. Everyone at my tables food tasted like it has been sitting for 30 minutes. The restaurant on a Saturday is kind of like being being in a Elevator with 15 people. The bartender Brittney deserves 5 stars and should be promoted ahead of her peers to teach the server breanna how to do her job. I get it you're busy but do your job and you get 5 star reviews. All in all not bad. read more

Really enjoy dining here, food is usually always on point and service is pretty good. My only compliant would be the menu, just wish there was more of a selection, feel like every time we dine here we are getting the same meals each time, need some more variety. Other than that, it's a great place! read more

Horrible food... brown lettuce in the salads... avocado toast tasted like day old guacamole smeared on bread. Yuck!

Delicious food, me and my girlfriend's that I went to cos school with love meeting here for dinner. I would suggest going on a week night because the weekends get crazy and they don't take reservations or call ahead seating. The service is good, and they don't try to push you out the door. The only thing that's a pain is waiting to get sat (but the food is worth it!). read more

My girlfriend and I were looking for a place to stop for a quick lunch when in Hershey. Honestly, we weren't looking for anything fancy, so we stopped at Houlihan's, hoping we could get something halfway decent. We didn't know what a treat we were in for. Honestly, we had two of the best lunch salads that either of us had ever had. The mix of vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients made them both very delicious. Our waitress was friendly, outgoing, and prompt. I wish I could remember her name so that I could give her the acknowledgment she deserves. I would definitely stop by again, and I would recommend it to anyone in the area. read more

Amazing food, amazing service, great prices. Try the white bean salad and one of the many amazing Long Island iced teas. Thanks Joleen P for being the best waitress. read more

Some seriously good food for a fair price. Also got a liter of raspberry long island for only a dollar more than a single glass costs. Can't beat it. read more

Escaped to Hershey for a couple relaxing days. Have been to Houlihan's in Baltimore, and they've always been okay. This one was close, and had a slightly different menu. We are so glad we went. We ordered: Firecracker Shrimp as an appetizer. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Excellent blend of favors with just the right amount of "kick". Entrées included: Seared scallops -- tender and resting on a decadent serving of risotto, delicious; and the Stuffed Chicken Breast, which was not overly stuffed, perfectly cooked, alongside mouth-watering creamy mashed potatoes. We finished the meal with carry out brownie and ice cream dessert that they graciously deconstructed so we could build it when we got back to out hotel room (each "part" -- and there was at least a half a dozen -- was individually packed/prepped). We went on a Thursday evening , and expected a packed house at at 8pm, and there was a nice crowd, no waiting, and not loud at all. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and helpful, and made our visit even more of a pleasure. 5 stars EACH for the food, the ambience and the service. May have to go back before we head home! read more
