Houlihan's
- 1508 S. Randall Rd.
- Algonquin, IL 60102
- 847-658-4560
- Price range: $$$ ($16-$25)
The mammoth menu here spans from Thai to Tex-Mex to American; popular picks include stuffed chicken, Thai chili wings and stuffed mushrooms, the latter of which has remained on the chain's menu since 1972. Specialty Long Island iced teas -- from melon to raspberry -- are served in pitchers intended for two but often polished off solo. The best buy to end the night? Homemade mini desserts -- like creme brulee or cappuchino cake -- for just $1.99 a pop.
This Houlihan's is also a test location for the company's "Bed Head Brunch," which runs on weekends starting June 21. Dishes include a homemade pop tart made from house-made pastry shells and chocolate-hazelnut filling, omelets filled with wild mushrooms or honey-cured ham, and sweet potato pancakes with orange cream cheese. Brunch cocktails include berry-flavored mimosa flights, strawberry-basil lemonade spiked with gin, a bloody mary bar and other sippers featuring ingredients such as mint, rose water and limoncello.
