Staff was very friendly and I thought it was a nice touch to put bows on the tables closed for social distancing. The food and prices, however were disappointing. $15.95 for chicken fingers and fries. I thought the fries were overly salty and I heard another table send theirs back. My husband ordered jambalaya which he said was good. Overall, just an ok place to eat but overpriced. Better off going to a Village Inn and paying half as much. read more

See my rib picture. Freaking awesome. The best ribs from a place that doesn't only do BBQ I have ever had. I have eaten here a number of times, and the food is always great. These ribs are something that I had to post to Yelp. And I will cut and paste this review and put it on Urban Spoon as well. They were that good. read more

Houlihan's - I broke the ribs up because they were so moist and delicious. And ribs aren't very good in most places. These were awesome! - Bars Near Me - Manhattan, Kansas

I love the huge and diverse menu that can accommodate everyone's different preferences. Kids too! I also love that calorie counts are listed. I often purposely choose restaurants who do this for their health-conscious and/or dieting customers. I love the organic greens salad and always add the salmon. Delicious! Excellent soup too. read more

Waited over and hour for food and the restarting was half full. Service was fine but people were seated after us and put the door by the time we even got our food. Brutal read more

I haven't been tO Houlihan's in quite some time. We came tonight and had the Lemon Chicken Piccata off of the test menu. Amazing! That should be on the regular menu! Sophia was our server and the restaurant was very busy but she provided excellent service! I will be back very soon! read more

First time eating here. It was not good at all. My husband got chicken Alfredo and it looked really good, but the chicken tasted burnt and was disgusting. I ordered wings and a salad and the wings were not spicy at all and my Caesar salad dressing tasted more like honey mustard. The only thing good about this place was the staff and quickness of getting the food out. But don't eat the food here. read more

Hit or miss. It's convenient if you're staying at the hotel, have a meeting on campus, or want to dart across the street to a show at McCain. Otherwise, really, walk the two blocks to Aggieville. Breakfast: the oatmeal and healthy scramble were great; my friend's poached eggs were the strangest poached eggs we'd ever seen. Brekkie menu not interesting, really, and the tea/coffee selection isn't great. Lunch: my sandwich was edible; my daughter's french onion soup was terrific. Dinner: BFF's filet mignon was excellent; my Asian lettuce wraps were disappointing. So it's a crap shoot. The atmosphere is dark and uninviting. The service, however, has been consistently excellent. One Friday evening during football season, part of the K-State marching band came into the restaurant and played a few songs. That was the best part of our Houlihan's experience! Bottom line: it's food in the belly. But I'm not sure that it's food worth paying for. read more

I watched the waitress stare at the tv for 10 minutes while our drinks sat in front of her. The pretzel sticks were really good however the salad was pitiful using shredded lettuce like subway. The fires were stale and cold like they had been sitting in the back for hours. The waitress was almost non existent. I will not be coming back to this place. And too bad, it is really nice inside. read more

Love this place - my favorite so far in Manhattan. Thursday is half price for wine and the calamari was the best we've found in the area so far. My husband had a steak and said that it was the first time he'd gotten a steak cooked to perfection (clearly the cook will change from night to night) and was very much impressed. I got scallops and they melted in my mouth. Outdoor seating was minimal but w/ a great view. read more

We have been to other Houihan's locations and enjoyed our meal. This was hands down the worst Houlihan's experience we have ever had. The host staff being rude and dismissive was just the first of many disappoints during our visit. To say our waitress was inattentive and the food lacking would be an understatement. Cleanliness was also obviously not a priority for the staff of this location. While in Manhattan do yourself a favor: skip eating at Houlihan's and enjoy a meal at any of the other restaurants around town. read more

Fun place for lunch or dinner. Staff is quick and friendly and the food is consistently good. My favorite is the buffalo blu salad. The stuffed mushrooms are massive and delicious. And the various frites are good as well. I only wish they'd bring back the doughnuts for dessert. read more

You can't vote on the big debate about chicken sandwiches until you've tried Houlihan's Brentwood chicken sandwich! It's stacked high with a thick chicken breast, smoked bacon, cheese, and all the condiments you would wish for. Put it with a side of sweet potato fries, and there you have it! Houlihan's just won the big chicken sandwich debate! read more

Came in there today and the host was so rude she asked us how long we would take in the restaurant. Because she had a reservation in two hours. I'm sorry but how is that any customers problem. U got a big restaurant if your worried about two people taking up room maybe you shouldn't have a reservation option. read more

Houlihan's is a part of a hotel. The salad I ordered was good, the french onion was decent. Waitresses were cute. I was not able to meet Patch O', though. read more

I Already Loved The Food But They Out Do Themselves With Customer Service. I Used Eat Street To Get My Food Delivered At Work And They Forgot The Soup I Ordered. I Called Back And Explained That To The Manager And She Got In Her Car Herself, Brought Me My Missed Soup And Gave Me A Coupon For My Next Visit! You Will Not Be Disappointed If You Go There! I Promise You! read more

Ate here every night all week when in town for work. Great food and drink selection! Everything we ordered tasted great and prices were pretty decent. Be sure to check out half price drinks and apps from 3-7! read more

So far, I've always been impressed by eating here. My favorites: Their flatbread pizza (veggies with goat cheese) is fabulous. Their tuscan bean salad is amazing and fresh. Their truckstop fries are addictive. Their pasta is very good and salads are also delicious. I think that's all I've tried so far. They aren't that pricey as compared to eating in NYC, for the kind of food that they offer. I have been going back constantly and will continue to do so. read more

They are not busy tonight and closing early but the staff is amazingly nice.

We really enjoyed our late lunch here. They salmon BLT is always good and my boyfriend got the stuffed chicken which was even better. The food came out slowly which was a drawback but they gave us some chips and salsa to make up for it. The service was good but again it did take longer than we would have liked for the food and drinks. We would go back for sure. read more

Houlihan's is a chain spot and this one is attached to a hotel. Still, I really, really like it. The food is well-made and tasty, the flavored teas/lemonades are great, and the service is very friendly. The atmosphere feels pretty swanky and it's a great spot for large-group parties. read more

Disappointing! Decent drink specials, okay food, horrible service. We've been here twice and waited for our drinks over 15 minutes both times. We had to get up to find our server 3 times. The bacon wrapped potato wedges were burnt. The chipotle chicken nachos and the "big cheese" burger were both decent! If we come back, it will only be for the happy hour! read more

We had the most amazing waitress Larissa! She was smart, quick, attentive and on point with our order.. She smiled, pre bussed, was personable and made sure our dining experience was enjoyable. We will be requesting her the next time we visit..Now, a manager named Connie brought over a beer we had ordered. She slammed it down in front of me, (I'm clearly 7 months pregnant) and it spilled on the table.. She walked away rolling her eyes and proceeded to turn her attention to some well dressed business men being sat at the table behind us.. She placed her hands on their shoulders multiple times when speaking which I viewed and very inappropriate and unprofessional as the men looked very uncomfortable. If it weren't for our server being so wonderful we would have decided never to go back. read more

i'd put off trying this place from previous reviews But it was well worth it. I will return. The scallops and rissoto had a great clean taste. scallops seared just right. Even the side salad was different and refreshing. Looking forward to going back soon for they had lot of different and interesting selections including small plates at great prices for easy sharing and taste testing. Our server was excellent at recommendations and very friendly and helpful. read more

I don't know why I haven't done a review on this place yet, my family and I eat here all the time. Seriously, we can't stay out of it. Our little ones ask for Houlihan's when we're deciding where to go eat. Other people's kids scream Mickey D's or some other place with burgers and the promise of a free toy; our kids want Houlihan's. The food is excellent and artfully prepared, and the flavors...! It's also a great spot to meet up with friends for wine and/or reasonably priced cocktails that really should cost more when you experience how good they are. I love the atmosphere, their Serious Brownie (whatever it's called- it's crazy, stupid good), and the staff. One of the best places to nomnom in MHK, hands down. Plus, it's within walking distance to Aggieville AND located on the ground floor of a very fine hotel. Need I say more? read more

The lettuce wraps are so good for a light meal or shared appetizer. The come with chicken, shredded veggies, lo mein-like noodles and 2 delicious sauces. I'm never disappointed with the food I get here. If I had one critical thing to say it would be that the bar has very limited alcohol choices. read more

So my expectations were a bit low for this place, mostly for being a hotel restaurant but I was wrong. I came a few times for Happy Hour and they have some great drinks and apps for a really good price. The food quality is good and they make really good drinks. I would not count this one out if your staying at the hotel or looking for something convenient. read more

This was my first time visiting the Manhattan Houlihan's. It was 6:30 or 7pm on a Wednesday night and it was pretty busy. It took quite a while to get my drink, but the food was pretty good. I had a hamburger with swiss and french fries (on special for $8) and the Georgia Peach Long Island Iced Tea (also on special... for $4.95). read more

I'm giving a 3 star because I have a gluten and dairy allergy and they worked with me. Cleaned the grill and had options. They also offer The Impossible Burger. The food was "meh" for the price (had a regular burger on gluten free bun and husband had chicken fried chicken). If you are traveling/coming down I70 and having a hard time finding a place to eat due to allergies, you will probably find something here. read more

Honestly, I have always had great food and great service at Houlihan's in Manhattan, KS! I recently went to Houlihan's in Overland Park, KS and was equally satisfied. I am surprised to see one and two star ratings, but I am quite sure those rating Houlihan's so low, have never been abroad to REALLY experience deserved one and two star ratings! (Cruise ships do not count!). Houlihan's is one of the best places to dine in Manhattan, KS. My favorite is the Shrooms. I still am able to order the Calamari Salad, even though it is not on the menu. The chef still accommodates the order! Awesome service above and beyond! Great atmosphere! Excellent drinks! Management will make every effort to ensure your experience is top notch. I do recommend going in during the off hours for the very best of what Houlihan's has to offer. read more

I'm pretty surprised they do not know how to make a martini. This is how it was served -one half glass. It seems they like to use olive juice from a squeeze bottle as filler. I did not ask for it dirty. Hope the appetizers are better. read more

Sirloin made to perfection sliced and fanned onto the plate fresh mashed potatoes awesome asparagus. Absolutely beautiful. Everyone calls me Red. I only tip 20% but they treat me like im tippn 50%.

Dip and scrape with teeth. Hubby luvs Germany. Hubby luvs their pretzels and cheese. Will drive 30 mins for it read more

Food was awesome and the device was good. . the margaritas were tasty but amount wasn't what it should be for 9$.. For sure recommend

We ate there for dinner, this place does have a decent atmosphere for a hotel restaurant, but unfortunately for their food doesn't always meet expectations. I order the stuffed chicken every time I visit-- and the last two visits, I have walked away very disappointed for a $17 item-- The chicken was pink inside and small portions. I will not be back anytime soon, although it was 6 months since my last visit. Save your time and go somewhere that has consistently good food if your going to spend $70 for two adults and two children. read more

In a town like Manhattan, the restaurant selection is minimal. As someone who rarely leaves reviews, I felt compelled to comment about my experience at this restaurant due to the consistent service and food quality. My friends and I typically go on Tuesday's after we get off work and the atmosphere here is unbeatable. It is very relaxed while holding a sophisticated standard if you are trying to look for something away from the bustle of the ville. The menu has something for every one of my friends and has never been anything short of delicious. The prices on the happy hour menu from 5-6 are perfect if you're trying to be budget conscious and the drink selection is better than any other restaurant in town. Since we always go on Tuesday, we've had the same waiter throughout named Zach. Zach has been consistent with his service and always brings a fun, positive attitude that our table looks forward to. His knowledge of the menu is obvious because he always knows what to suggest when a member of our party is unsure about their order and has yet to wrong us. Throughout our dinner, another staff member, Stephanie, has continued to make sure we are satisfied with our experience. Overall, this is a place I will continue to suggest to others because I have yet to experience any negatives. read more

This place has it all. A great varied menu, nice ambiance, and not too expensive. I really enjoy the rosemary chicken breast, esp. love the mashed potatoes and fresh veggies that come with it. The chop salad is my favorite start, altho. the loaded nachos are enough to be a meal. They also have a reasonably priced drink menu with nightly specials. BUT the BEST part for me is dessert, the Creme Brulee is heavenly. It comes in a smaller size so you can fit it in, and the price is just right also. The staff is attentive and dressed a little nice than some places, think they have to wear black which gives the place a fancier feel. read more

In the past I have really enjoyed Houlihans. My last visit was disappointing though. I ordered the Roast Beef dinner and it was presented beautifully. When I started eating it I was disappointed to find a huge mound of mashed potatoes covered with a small amount of gravy that had small pieces of meat in it. Just the week before we were in Missouri and the roast beef was presented in a large piece accompanied by vegetables and mashed potatoes. What a difference. If it is a meat dish - the meat should always be the star. At Houilhans I think the star was the onion straws all over the plate. I read more

Eh decent food but not a the best. Service was great. Went for dinner and it was packed probably bc was Friday and they have reverse happy hour. Anyways had the tuna wontons which were delicious. I had the steak with asparagus and green beans. Veggies were good. Steak was decent. Wouldn't get it again though. My husband has chicken parmesan. He said it was ok. Oh and the fruity margarita was very very sweet but had decent amount of alcohol in it. read more

I ordered the steak and wedge salad. I ordered the steak medium and they accomplished that, but it was such a tough cut of meat I could barely cut it with the steak knife. Flavor was ok on the steak. The cut of meat was sirloin. I buy sirloin to cook at home and it always comes out tender. I wonder why they use such poor quality meat!? read more

Service was great, atmosphere great and food was excellent! I ordered the lunch plate...Thai Chicken with ginger soy sauce and pineapple brown rice and asparagus. Something totally different that I would not order and everything was prepared well, tasted superb and waiter was very attentive! read more

Houlihan's - Lunch plate Thai Chicken....I will come back again!! - Bars Near Me - Manhattan, Kansas

The food was great, but that wasn't the best part. I didn't catch his name, but our server was wonderful. He was attentive, but not annoying. The kitchen made a mistake with our order, but they elected to give us the mistakenly cooked entree for free and not charge us for the entree that we actually ordered. Score! read more
