Lots of paraphernalia crammed onto ledges and tacked onto walls add to the pub feel. Charm oozes, from the old red telephone booth outside to the frosted glass doors inside. After our pleasant experience in Bismarck, we were eager to try a Houlihan's close to home. At the Eagan restaurant, our waiter, Dan, made us feel welcome. He was friendly and witty, great with the kids, and on top of our every need.
All food is fresh, and the extensive menu offers something for everyone.
The wild mushroom bruschetta, piled with fresh basil, tomatoes and mushrooms, pleased the adults. Creamy spinach dip served with crunchy flatbread was a definite hit with the older kids. The best entree was the grilled Atlantic salmon, which arrived seared slightly crisp on the outside, flaky inside, and served with sauteed vegetables and garlic mashed potatoes. Extensive menu offers plenty of home-style fare. Richfield location opening in February.
