Thirsty Lion

Hey guys, well let me tell you that this place food is amazing. Everybody enjoyed their food at the table from burgers to salad .flavor wise just like the menu described it. I had smoked chicken salad, which was phenomenal. The atmosphere was great not too loud. they had a few football games on, but still very manageable to talk with each other. I am giving a two stars for service because I feel like I was waiting too long for the server to come and refill my drink . other than that great place to stop by if you’re downtown, we reserved a table so it was quick. Aka.Mike the inspector

My co-worker and I were in Denver for a few days for a conference. We came here because the menu looked good and they were pretty busy when we walked by a few nights prior. The atmosphere was nice, and everything was clean. We were seated right as we walked in. The service was good. I ordered the Ahi Poke Bowl and my co-worker ordered the cheese burger. The portion sizes were good and the prices weren't bad for the size of the meals. My meal was good, but nothing mind-blowing. My co-worker enjoyed the burger, but he said the fries which came with it were hard and almost tasted stale. Before anyone comes here be aware they charge a 3% surcharge for your meal. My co-worker believed he saw a small sign outside which stated this, but I did not see it. This was a bit of a surprise when I saw it on the receipt. The explanation on the receipt said it was to ensure their employees could receive proper benefits. They also calculated the recommended tip amounts based off the total of everything (food, 3% surcharge, and tax) rather than just the meal itself. Overall, the experience wasn't bad, but neither of us loved it. Neither of us plan on coming back to this restaurant.

I'm sorry, but I can't lie. The only thing that satisfied me was the cocktail. Other than that, it was bad. First, the server said something to my friends. They were like, "Huh?!?" but didn't want to make a big deal. If the server behaves like that again, it will be a big deal. Fortunately, she seemed to realize what she did from our reaction, so nothing happened. Second, after we got our appetizer, it took forever for someone to come take our entrée order. We had to tell them twice that we were still waiting. Lastly, the food was not impressive at all. Many of us ordered the Spanish seafood paella because it sounded great, but it was not what it was supposed to be. It was almost like Chinese fried rice — and it wasn’t that delicious either.

My company hosted a few happy hour networking events here and were generally satisfied. If anyone reading this is thinking of doing the same thing, I would recommend it but they do not have private rooms just FYI. The location really can’t be beat. It’s in the heart of downtown steps away from Union Station. Again, great for getting people to come to your networking event. The food and drinks are all really tasty and well made. Prices during happy hour are very reasonable and selection during that time is also good with plenty to choose from. To complement the food and drinks, service has always been perfect. Huge kudos to the bartender that helped me the last time I was there. I would come back just to get served by her again. The one downfall I would say about Thirsty Lion is that the appointment booking process was very difficult and convoluted with different people saying different things.

Happy hour here was great. The STAFF was great! 3 fantastic bartenders were welcoming and helpful with learning more about the city. Samantha, Jillian and Jasmine will provide you with great sir! I got a Hibiscus Tea with Malibu and Vodka in it and the salmon cakes.

My family and I stayed in the LODO area and were a short 10 min walk to the Thirsty Lion. We loved the atmosphere, and our waitress was great and always had a smile on. The food was delicious. We had the cheese curds for our appetizer. (Get the bacon jam sauce)We had the spicy fried chicken, which was perfect! My oldest son ordered the pretzel and it was also delicious! Good vibes at the Thirsty Lion!

We enjoyed a delicious dinner on our stay in Denver. Service was excellent. The menu has a lot of new american dishes. I had an Ahi tuna salad and bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer. My husband had a burger. Loved everything. Will definitely go again.

Great place that’s open late night. The happy hour is good and affordable. The food is very flavorful. I recommend the burger sliders because the sliders have a decent amount of flavor and are decently filling.

Got a last minute reservation right before a hockey game at Ball arena. Place gets packed before events and there was a waiting line for tables. Get a reservation if you choose to go before an event. The host sat us right away. We were served right away and food came out quickly. They have a rotating menu with special flares on their burger. Great fries. We had the spicy chicken sandwich and the special burger. Staff were very busy and were able to check in on us plenty of times. It's about 20-25 minute walk to Ball arena so plan accordingly.

Service was great. Atmosphere is trendy. Place is hoppin The chips and queso- skip it. The queso has a grainy texture.... The chips were great though The spinach's artichoke dip was a Better choice! Turkey club sandwich is AMAZING. very fresh and turkey was sliced perfectly Scottish egg. Barely any sausage at all on it was only complaint. It was mostly just a deep fried egg But I would come back and try other dishes because the ones we loved were just that good!

Thirsty Lion is our go to place down by Union Station. It is nothing revolutionary, but it is always good. It is a huge spot so we seem to always be able to get a seat - even late on a Saturday. Burgers are awesome. The queso is nice. I especially like the Lion Lemonade. Always had good service. It's a good spot. Right by Union Station and walkable from the Union Station light rail.

Stopped in on a Sunday for lunch. We got the recommendation from Snooze breakfast place near by since we were looking for lunch food. We had the cheese burger and the French dip. Everything was delicious! Live the hand cut fries! They were crispy and the perfect amount of salty. Definitely would come back!

Quick dinner for hubby and I before the Stevie Nicks concert at Ball Arena on June 1st. Hubby had the dry rub wings and a NA Heineken. The waitress misunderstood NA but corrected it pretty quickly once she brought out a regular beer. I had the Ace pineapple cider, one of my favorites. I also had the Ahi Tuna appetizer. It was very good. It could use a bit more sauce given with the dish and wasabi but I'll admit I polished it off nonetheless. We got in and got out and made it to the concert just on time. We were out celebrating our 42nd Anniversary and we haven't killed each other yet!

I've been to the Thirsty Lion a couple of times now, and I have to say, the experience has been a mixed bag. The food and service haven't quite hit the mark for me, but there's a silver lining - their late-night happy hour is a game-changer. Imagine: craft cocktails that make you question your go-to drink and food that's surprisingly good when you thought the kitchen had checked out for the night. It's like they save their best tricks for after hours. Maybe it's the charm of sipping a perfectly mixed cocktail while pondering why the earlier meals missed the memo. Who knows? Thirsty Lion, you've got me coming back, if only to decode your quirky after-hours allure or there outside seating patio which has a great view of Union station and lots of people watching if your into that kind of thing !

We chose this because it was next door to Union Station. We were seated immediately, and our server grabbed our drink order. I went with their Cobb salad with a few changes (no corn and blue cheese/substituted cheddar cheese with vinaigrette dressing). The salad was larger than it looked and loaded with cheese, meat, and veggies. It was delicious!!! I want to come back with my family, and I'm trying their Scotch eggs!

I love taking people here who are from out of town or just on a random fancy dinner out with friends. The service can be a hit or a miss but the staff is friendly. When it comes to the food it always tastes fresh and rich in flavor. Over the years I have noticed the portion sizes get smaller. They have redone the menu a few times over the years so it always fun to try something different. The price is a bit higher than it used to be. Now I would say you are looking at $30 per person minimum it used to be $15 per person just a couple of years ago. The value hasn't increased enough to justify the cost in my opinion but I get it every thing is more expensive these days.

Stopped in here for a bite to eat before an Avs game and very glad we did! Lots of variety on the menu. Not sure what prompted me to get tuna in Denver but it was a great choice - the poke bowl was so good, loved the mango and mix of textures! We also got the cheese curds which were great, loved the jalapeño jam that came with them.

Thirsty Lion was able to accommodate a party of seven on an early Saturday evening. The first thing we noticed was the loud music playing throughout the restaurant. What was louder was people talking over the music which made it very difficult to hear folks at our table. We started with cocktails, and roasted gluten free Brussels sprouts due to a gluten sensitive person in our party. The Brussels sprouts were delicious but had pasta mixed in and were cross contaminated. Fortunately, the person with gluten allergies noticed before taking a bite. We mentioned it to our wait person and the Brussels sprouts were removed from our check. Dinner consisted of Jalapeño burger, cheese burger, chicken avocado sandwich, tacos, and kids ordered chicken tenders. The burgers were delicious, especially the spicy jalapeño burger. The tenders were crunchy and also delicious. The food was great, but the very noisy atmosphere made the overall experience a disappointment.

Really cute spot we decided to stop into today! I think this would be a really awesome spot to come in and watch a game or have a fun dinner with friends. Danielle, our bartender, was on point. We had great conversation and she made an amazing basil and grapefruit martini that was so refreshing. I had their signature poke bowl (Sorry guys, the camera did NOT eat first) and was really happy with it. It was a great portion, the tuna was great quality, and it had the perfect amount of veggies and sauce on top. Will definitely be coming in here again to give some other dishes a go!

Great service and food! Located right outside Union Station- short walk. Look towards the kid's water cooling area. Casual spot with TVs showing sport games or music videos. Very chill vibe. We were seated right away and service was excellent. Generous portion of fish and fries. There are different seating areas, all kinds to accommodate any size with families or just for a quick lunch.

Dependable local union station pub. I always walk so I know nothing about the parking situation. I come here at least once a month if not more because I work so close by. The food is decent and the have a massive indoor seating area and well as a nice outdoor area. I don't typically make reservations, but I mainly come for happy hour or lunch. The food typically comes out quickly and tastes good. I haven't had a meal here that came out poorly. I did take one star off because it always smells back here. I know they are near the sewer, but they have to do something about the smell. It is awful and reminds me of rotten eggs/farts. Highly recommend for a quick bite or happy hour. I am sure I will be back in the new few weeks. Overall 4/5

Kendall was one of the best servers I've ever had. E went before a shuttle to Red Rocks. Food and cocktails were excellent and Kendall was amazing!

Seating outside was beautiful and comfortable. Decent size selection on the menu. Didn't get a chance to try a drink, maybe next time. Food arrived fast! Was hot, and tasted great. Water served in a pour glass, no ice. No straws. Fine with me! Service was a bit slow but she seemed a bit overwhelmed. I'd come back!

I really liked this spot located on a busy street in Lodo. It is huge with tons of indoor seating. I like the big open space and huge windows let you see the hustle and bustle outside! I was very impressed with the food we ordered. I would say definitely try the buffalo cauliflower. They do have plenty of veggie options and fish. They also have a big cocktail and beer menu.

We stopped by thirsty lion for shots before catching the express shuttle to red rocks. The bar was PACKED, but we still had fast service and the prices were reasonable for a bar.

Pretty good place for some drinks and appetizers. Menu isn't anything special. Spicy fried cauliflower was really good. Ambiance is nice and very wide open. Service was great too. I'd recommend this place for drinks and a quick bite before heading to Ball Arena.

Got a reservation for 4 on Saturdays at 5:30 before the Avs game which was really great. Service was pretty fast, though once we got everything we weren't checked on. Understandable, due to the location it's so busy in there. We enjoyed it! Fun vibes, great food and drink selection, and happy hour ran until 6 which was great. Happy hour specials were ACTUALLY specials - items were $3-4 cheaper than the regular menu, but still the same size! The California roll was good - as expected, nothing special but hit the spot. The ahi tuna stack was so good. So much tuna and avocado. The wonton chips were really good. I loved the soy ginger and siracha aioli. Also had a glass of Prosecco. Others at the table got the chicken tenderloins and fries and enjoyed their meals as well. Would definitely go back. Great spot for before a game or event at Ball Arena!

Went to the Thirsty Lion in hopes of grabbing an appetizer & dessert with some drinks. I ordered a blood orange margarita. It was beautiful & pretty tasty too. My friend ordered a hibiscus basil lemonade & she said it was one of her better drinks she had on the trip. We tried to order the fried pickles but they were out so we ended up just ordering the Southern Peach Crumble from their Summer menu. The Peach crumble was good. The peaches tasted really fresh. We both wish there was more crumble to this dessert. The pecans were a fun touch to this dish. We both wish we would have tried a meal here. It looked like they had some yummy options on their menu. Cute atmosphere. Our waitress was really nice. I love the location!

It smells like you're a tourists if you're in here. Cool name but meh, being a local I won't come back again but if you're in the area it'll do!

Best part of the dinner - the iced tea. I was here for a work function. Waitress was ok but it seemed there was a purposeful delay in taking our dinner order. Anything requiring a grill is no longer available - guess it will take a lot of effort for them to get a new one put in. This is from them, not my own supposition. Dinner was very underwhelming - fried chicken with Mac and cheese. The chicken is mostly fried batter. Mac and cheese was bland. If you like cheese curds and sliders I guess you could try it. If you want to have a decent meal I would not recommend; Denver has a lot more to choose from. I'd give a 2.5 if possible but I don't see a reason to round up.

My bestie and I wanted to do brunch one Saturday. So we met at the Thirsty Lion. We were met by a lovely waitstaff member that placed in the nice patio in the shade where we could people watch while catching up. We split a bottle of champagne with Blood Orange Juice. So delicious. I confess, I could have drank a 2nd bottle it was so good. There were so many amazing options on the brunch menu that I was torn and know I will have to go back again. I finally settled on the Breakfast Burrito. I still can't stop thinking about it. It was everything that I wanted. It was a touch spicy and I loved the Ranchero sauce and Chipotle Aioli that elevated it to the next level. It was accompanied by roasted breakfast potatoes. The waitstaff was friendly, checked in with us but didn't hover or rush us. It was an amazing experience and I can't wait to brunch there again.

Guess I'm 0/1 in Denver so far. First meal in and it was a bonafide crap hole. Food and and service were absolutely terrible. Let's start with the food, the shrimp tasted "fishy" which I don't think is ever supposed to happen. The black beans were room temperature and supposedly had bacon in it, which is definitely not a good idea at room temperature. Although the good news is there was no bacon. All you tasted was crappy Luke warm beans. They give you three options for tacos: carnitas, fish tacos and shrimp. God forbid you can pick and choose, you only get 1 option and I picked the wrong one. Who knows how the others would've worked for you. The host and the server outside and terrible attitudes. You are inconveniencing them by being there just FYI. It is kind of funny when 22 year olds think they're worth anything. The beer was the best part but not worth it

Stopped by the Thirst Lion before our show at Red Rocks (where the shuttle was picking up), and was so glad we did! We got some food and drinks before heading to our show - and liked it so much that we came back the following day to try some other food items (for second night of show). They even have a food special for folks who are taking the shuttle from their place (essentially a free app from limited menu with purchase of a drink), which was clutch! Also to mention it's during HH too, so additional drink and food specials as well. We got a pretzel, chicken tenders, beer cheese soup (was recommended by a few people), and split a burger. All was pretty decent, although I'd recommend the gastropub burger if you are craving a burger. Service was hit or miss, especially the crowds start coming in, but overall friendly. Starting our Red Rocks experience at the Thirsty Lion will now be a tradition!

After having so many things about their Scotch eggs & it being conveniently located by Union Station, I knew I had to stop by before the end of the year. It had good vibes and a good crowd for a Monday night. Waiter was attentive and food came out quick. Their food was okay, some items are definitely better than others. They pride themselves with the fact its a scratch made kitchen, ingredients freshly prepped every morning. To start off, of course, a signature dish of theirs -- traditional scotch eggs. It was delicious, I love the crunchiness of the crust and the delicious golden runny egg yolk. The yolk was creamy and balanced off the crust. As for my entree, I had the Smoked Pork Ramen. It was not my favorite. Personally, I had brief moments where I could taste the flavor of the broth as the black pepper (and potentially chilies?) just overpowered the dish itself. Pork was good, tender --- could not taste the smokiness at all. Udon noodles was mushy, and I am still debating if it was actually udon noodles. Overall, would I come again? Maybe for a burger not ramen haha

My partner and I came here for lunch yesterday right before taking the shuttle to Red Rocks. Since it was earlier in the day, they had an incredible happy hour that consisted of getting a free Appetizer with a drink purchase! We chose to get the pretzel and calamari as apps and then split a gastropub burger as well. Pretzel: great flavor and size! Dipping sauces were decent, I'm always a sucker for beer cheese. 5/5 Calamari: was actually a LOT better than I was expecting, and paired well with both sauces. 4/5 Gastropub burger: the blend of all the different flavors really worked well together, especially with the maple bacon. The ciabatta bun was a nice twist. 5/5 The service was also super friendly, and they were understanding of us needing to catch the bus so they expedited our food. Would DEFINITELY recommend!

Thirsty Lion Gastro Pub We attended a family function in Denver this past weekend. During our stay in Denver we had two dinners at the Thirsty Lion Gastro Pub. We had a group of 12 and seating can be an issue at many resturants. Not so at the Thirsty Lion. They have lots of long tables available. Service was good, food good, and very reasonably priced. They have an extensive menu, something for everyone. Their beer menu is also extensive. Feedback was so positive we returned the following evening.

Average food and environment, friendly staff. It's not a bad spot if you're in the area and can't get into another restaurant, they have ample seating and a variety of food options. My food was good, but it's not a must visit spot in my opinion.

My friend and I had happy hour here as we waited for our bus to Red Rocks. We were seated immediately upon arrival even though it was busy, they had plenty of space. Food & drinks: For food, we ordered the chicken tenders, fries and the giant pretzel. All of the items were good and very well worth the happy hour price. It filled us up nicely before our concert. For drinks, we ordered a moscow mule and a cosmo. Both cocktails were pretty standard. They were made adequately. Service: Service was friendly. They were busy so we didn't see our server a whole lot, which is fine. Our order was taken quickly and our food & drinks came as they were ready. TL;DR - nice happy hour spot for sure by the bus and train station

On my last evening in Denver, it was my desire to eat at or around the Denver Union train station. I have reviewed a sample of the many food options that are available in a different post on this platform. The bonus of being in this area is that there are numerous enticing eateries outside the train station too. So, I chose the Thirsty Lion Gastropub and decided to only have appetizers, so that we could taste more items on the menu. The beef sliders (3 of them), had appealing presentation and tasted super. The brioche bun, beef patty, and the fresh tomato and lettuce provided satisfaction with every bite. The edamame was tossed in a soya and chilli paste to produce a knock out dish. This will remain as the best edamame I have had in a very long time. The scotch eggs (4 of them), had a crisp breading coat on the outside, and the perfect soft boiled yolk on the inside. I liked the fact that you could hardly taste the sausage meat layer in between the outer crust and the egg white. The scotch egg offering is very hard to find in the restaurant landscape. The cauliflower appetizer was also wonderful. It was tempura fried and covered with a thick flavorful Asian sauce. Indulging into it reveals a fresh cauliflower that had both texture and flavor. Service was good. There is still more on the menu that needs to be tried. Those mouthwatering selections will have to wait till the next time.

After posting a review in July following a visit while the Corporate team was in town, I finally made it back to Thirsty Lion this October prior to taking the shuttle to a show at Red Rocks. I'm happy to report that we were all very happy with our food and the quality has stayed relatively high since our last visit and definitely much better than I've experienced during previous visits. I was disappointed that they've changed the discount offered for the Red Rocks shuttle, especially since the hostess couldn't explain the new promotion to us prior to sitting down. We also had a reservation and it took the hostess longer to seat our party than those who showed up after us - so some training for the front of house is probably in order. But overall, we were happy with our visit and having a great dinner before heading to the show.

Sporty and casual atmosphere. Casey was great! The manager even stopped by and checked on us. The food was delish and my burger was cooked perfectly! I asked for medium rare and it came out a medium rare. Whoa

After skipping breakfast and wandering around Denver all morning, I was rapidly approaching hangry status. This place was the next restaurant we happened upon, so we went inside. I had a pulled pork salad chock full of rice, black beans, grilled corn, jalapeños, lettuce, jicama, pickled onions, and delicious pulled pork. The salad was a delicious blend of flavors and textures and it really hit the spot! My boyfriend had the spicy tuna roll which was mostly rice and a hearty helping of cilantro, which he hates. Not the restaurant's fault as it was in the description, but the roll could have had more tuna. Service was prompt and efficient, though not super friendly. I'd be back if I was in the area.

My wife and I shared the Brussels Sprouts which were very tasteful along with the edamame (very spicy and flavorful). The gastropub was conveniently located a few feet away from Union station and we were very happy with our choice. Service was fast and good. 2 different servers kept checking on us making sure we didn't need anything. It was warm and cozy. The Botha big enough for the wife and I to seat together comfortably. If you just landed in Denver, starving and want to start the trip right this is the place to go.

Food was bad, can't believe this was made by an actual chef. Looks like something I would quickly make at home. And I paid 23.95 for this *SIGNATURE ITEM. Here is the description "Pan seared with pecorino Romano, lemon herb beurre blanc, balsamic marinated tomatoes, garlic Parmesan noodles, fresh basil and seasonal vegetables". Great writing, bad food.

I've been here for brunch and lunch a few times and I've always enjoyed my food but it smells like sewer inside every time:(

We stopped in Downtown Denver for a nice lunch before we hit the airport. We we're seated right away, but after that the service was bad. We waited 10 minutes until someone ordered our drinks, and another 5 minutes for someone to order our food. The waiter didn't notice we had no silverware so I had to go track someone down to get some when our food came out. The food was ok, I wouldn't go here again. If the service were better we would've had a better experience. Overall the food is ok and the service was bad.

We thoroughly enjoyed the service and our dinner at the Thirsty Lion. The kids loved their burgers and my sister and I enjoyed a shrimp noodle bowl (recommended by the waitress) and a flat iron steak (cooked to perfection). We don't live in the Denver/Westminster area however when we come back to visit we'll definitely return to the Thirsty Lion. It's a great, family friendly restaurant with a nice ambiance.

Nice place and decent menu choices. Location was great as it was right next to Union Station. Food tasted pretty good, also. Definitely a lively environment so be ready for that. I didn't factor in the Denver Nuggets were playing shortly after we left so it was probably a larger crowd than normal. Still good though

Friendly and fast service. Decent good. Large booths good for a group and an overall fun atmosphere. Met a group for a quick weekday lunch and got to see an interesting variety of menu items. From the soft pretzel appetizer (two please!) to several salad variations (Brussels sprouts with salmon!) and even a bowl of ramen. Probably easy to find something for everyone here.

Really fresh healthy food. Nice combo bar and restaurant vibe. Servers are really nice, welcoming, and attentive. Came here on a Sunday night around 830 and was seated and served immediately.

Stuck in between a 3 and 4. This was a very nice restaurant to be at after the bronco game. Good vibe, kinda pricy, clean bathrooms (awesome to have after a game), and excellent service. Connor, our waiter, was very friendly and attentive. So why less than 4 stars? I decided to treat myself to a ribeye medium rare. It looks like they got it right when I cut into it. But it lacked flavor, very bland, so and was surprisingly chewy. Signs that the steak was cooked while cold. For the price, I would've expected better, at least a little better. I tried my friend's Kim chi fried rice and it was just overly spicy. But I will say the drinks are good.

The food was delicious. Our waitress was very nice. Loved all the black and the quotes. Menu has a good variety.

We came here for lunch on a Friday around 12 and were seated right away. Service was good and friendly. We started off with the scotch egg. I really enjoyed it and the egg was cooked perfectly. The Green chili chicken avocado sandwich was awesome. Great flavor. My friend was also raving about the ahi bowl/salad. The guys enjoyed their beers and food as well. Definitely a Gastro pub vibe and some good people watching since it's right next to union station. The patio is nice but we chose to sit inside because it was so hot. Definitely a cool spot to stop for a quick beer, lunch, or dinner.

Pretty standard sports bar experience, but with food options that are a bit more interesting than the average fare. We had the edamame, which was delicious with a chile soy sauce on it. I got the jalapeño burger, but with a beyond patty. No complaints from me! Fries were nice and crispy. Service was solid, though the place was certainly busy. Lots of TVs to watch sports and such on.

I came here for lunch and was able to get seated at the bar right away. The bartenders were very nice and almost got me to give this 4 stars but at the end of the day, it was just a regular experience. The ambiance is what you would expect from a bar. I ordered one of their lunch specials, the Mediterranean burger. It came out relatively fast within 15sh minutes and it was good. It came on a flaky ciabatta bread which I liked until the dryness of the bread got stuck in my throat and made me cough up a storm. I'm not blaming the bread but it's just something that happened to me that may be worth mentioning. The fries were less than average. It was kinda overcooked and hard so it was almost like I was eating potato chips versus fries. The price was ok relative to the center area. Overall it was ok.

We visited Thirsty Lion yesterday for brunch, and it was a great place to bring our party of 9. First off, I feel like they have a big enough menu for everyone to find something they like. We all shared the Cheese Curds, Spanish Chilaquiles, Spicy Fried Chicken and Waffles, Adobe Pork Benedict, Chicken Sliders, and Lions Breakfast Burger. Everything was properly cooked and came out fresh. We all really enjoyed everything. My FAVE part of the visit was the Bloody Mary and the Blood Orange Mimosa that each served 4. They were so delicious. We had a great server too! We would definitely visit again on our next trip to downtown. I'm bummed that I was too hungry to take pics. Next time!

The Thirsty Lion is pretty cool restaurant & bar that serves as a home base to bar hop from.

After looking at so many mixed reviews and not so pleasing pictures of food, we decided to try this place. We wanted something close by to where we were going to be at and we chose this place. We were a party of 12 and were seated quickly. Ambiance is nice and modern. It's not extremely loud but busy enough with the TVs. I like that the food and drink menus are not overwhelming which makes it easy to choose something. I ordered the Gochujang BBQ Pork which was really good. My friends ordered different things and they all were pretty tasty. HOWEVER, the food was so spicy. I love spicy food. To me, habanero is candy but this was beyond spicy. It was almost unbearable. I looked up and my friends were all sweating. My husband was suffering! On the bright side, I also ordered a Pear Martini and that was delicious! I tried the other drinks we all ordered and they were pretty good. I recommend! Service was pretty good. Servers were nice and attentive. Nothing out of the ordinary. I would probably go back to try other things. What stops me a little is the price. I feel like it's nothing that that special but maybe that's just me. Anyway, I would recommend it because they have a unique mixed menu and delicious drinks.
