Houlihan's

Sadly changing my review. They’ve lost a lot of their gf options. I used to eat here regularly for years but sadly it seems like they’re not as mindful of gluten issues anymore

Is there a gluten-free menu?

— No gluten-free information on the menu

So- not great with GF options, I had the seasonal vegetable and the tomato bisque soup (which was the only soup that was gf) but they have salads which are an option also and the salmon dish that can be made gf

My husband wanted a great steak dinner for his birthday and he thoroughly enjoyed his “normal” meal. GlutenFree Options left something to be desired though. There was only a chicken sandwich and a salmon entree available (and a couple sides) and they said the chicken was grilled on a shared grill. The chicken sandwich was good. Unfortunately can’t speak to its “safety” as I felt sick pretty much our entire trip. Overall I wouldn’t recommend if you need GF.

Other Characteristics

• Offers outdoor seating

There is no longer a gluten free menu, there are gluten sensitive alternatives to a few regular menu items. After speaking with my server explaining my needs, requesting no bun or bacon with my meal, I received both items. They quickly replaced my meal, however within 4 hour after eating my celiac symptoms kicked in. I should have left the restaurant and not gotten anything to eat because there were warning signs in this establishment’s attitude that celiac disorder was not taken seriously. However, being sick for 8 days and losing 10 pounds has made clear we need to advocate for what we need.

Celiac friendly?

No

They really cared about my daughter’s celiac disease and worked with the kitchen to make sure that her flatbread was safe. She is symptomatic immediately if she has any cross-contamination and we had zero issues. Thank you so much for making dining out enjoyable!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I've eaten here about a half dozen time and loved it until my most recent visit when I found some form of breading in my fish tacos which they said were GF. I asked my server what was it, she proceeded to tell me it was GF and made at a GF station. It was definitely A PIECE OF A CHICKEN STRIP!!! Highly disappointed!!!!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Server was very knowledgeable & asked questions, explained food prep, and made suggestions. Very happy with my meal & my experience here.

They now have gluten free bread, rolls, and pizza crust! I've always had a great experience here.

Good food, last visit server was extremely slow. I wish they would dedicate a fryer to non gluten items, and create more gluten free items.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We had to leave, our staff was completely unknowable about gluten free. There was one piece of paper for the whole restaurant that said what had wheat. Our waitress said that everything is prepared with gluten so there cross contamination was bad. There friers are shared. So we could of had a stake with nothing else or a burger without the bun, but with them saying there cross contamination is bad I didn't want to chance it. We we told the waitress we were going to leave but thank you anyways, she said "yeah this isn't really a good place to get gluten free" we went to Red Robin about a mile a way. It was yummy and they have dedicated friers (yea fries) The only good thing is they were nice, friendly staff.

Celiac friendly?

No

Food was ok. The gf menu is really small compared to the rest of the menu. Be prepared to WAIT... Our food was also cold when we got it

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free menu. People are knowledgable about gluten allergies

Avoid this place at all cost they have no clue about gluten, allergies or poisoning. In fact they recommend and highly recommend entrées are gluten-free, which are not I’ve been poisoned twice once at dinner once at breakfast never again please fellow allergist avoid this Houlihan at all cost.

No GF menu available. Staff unable to provide allergen menu. They are willing to help figure out GF options. I would not expect much chance of avoiding cross contamination if you need that assurance- probably best to avoid this one.

They have a gluten "friendly" menu but the sweet potato fries marked Gluten friendly are made in the same fryer as gluten items. They have a gluten free bun but still managed to give me the wrong one and they didn't catch it till I asked. If only intolerant could be ok and the staff was very apologetic. But I cannot recommend it if you have celiac disease.
