Thirsty Lion

Great vibe, great food, great staff. Went there to work, seamlessly transitioned into dinner. That's how you know a place gets it right. Happy hour menu is solid - actually good deals, not just cheap appetizers nobody wants. Orange chicken was on point. Even the salad delivered, which says something. Interior design nailed it. Exterior looks good too. They put thought into the whole experience, not just the food. Staff had great energy without being annoying. Let me work in peace, then shifted gears when it was time to eat. Perfect read of the room. This is what casual dining should be - flexible enough for whatever you need, good enough that you want to stay. Whether you're grabbing drinks, working remotely, or having dinner, this place works. Solid execution across the board. No complaints, just results.

Takeaway: Amazing food!! Don’t come here without planning for at least 2 hours for dinner. We were a 6:30pm walk-in with an estimated hour wait and got in a little before an hour. Super busy! The food was SO good. My partner got the Tuscan Romano Chicken (grilled). I could not stop stealing the noodles on his dish! The sauce was light and flavorful. The BBQ Kimchi Fried Rice was just as terrific, Just a heavier meal. Though the only had one dessert choice, it was delicious!! It was like a blackberry cobbler. My only note is that I was all the components were equal amounts. I wish there was more ice cream and slightly less compote, but that’s me being finicky. At first the service was prompt and as we got farther into dinner it significantly decreased. We waited 20-30 minutes for the check. Luckily we didn’t have anywhere to be, but no one wants to wait a long time when they’re ready to go.

Went on a Friday and loved the lively atmosphere. The spinach dip was hot and delicious. I was a little nervous to try the salmon since I’m picky about how it’s cooked and seasoned, but it blew me away. It was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Honestly, everything we ordered was seasoned so well. Would definitely come back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thirst Lion is a fantastic spot with amazing taste and top-notch management! Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. One appetizer came out late, and they kindly didn’t charge us for it—such a thoughtful gesture. The service was attentive, the atmosphere welcoming, and overall a truly great dining experience. Highly recommend!

One of the best food, atmosphere, and service I’ve experienced in DFW area after 2 years of living here. You will not regret coming here! Nikki was our server and she did wonderful checking in and refilling drinks, etc. The crispy cauliflower might be the most tasty appetizer I’ve ever had. The shrimp taco and the powerbowl were incredible and nice portions as well (these were specials) Sides are all great. It would be difficult to choose something you didn’t love here.

First time here after my husband do some research and see that restaurant got pretty good reviews, so we walked in and greeted with 4 reception girls and one of them started saying to us “ you guys can get on elevator and go upstairs “?!?! And we were like no idea what was she talking about because we didn’t know there’s upstairs for seating and she didn’t asked us or say hello or asked how many people we think it’s kinda weird. So we told her we just want the table downstairs. The service was okay and we think the food needs some improvement. We order 2 appetizers , fried pickles and artichoke dip both taste all right and I ordered kimchi fried rice and my husband ordered French dip and we’re disappointed, french fried on my husband plate was greasy and limp. My kimchi fried rice was so mushy! Overall we came here with the high hopes but it turned out not as we expected.

Overall we had a good experience here. The food was delicious and it was a pleasant atmosphere. I really liked that the music wasn't really loud as that can make it difficult to have a good time, especially when trying to search up with friends.

The options here were great. All the food we had was really good. I recommend coming here hungry. Portions were more than enough. Service was great and everyone we interacted with were stellar. Say outside and it was a great night for it. Not overly busy, nice breeze, and fun atmosphere. Definitely give them a try.

I absolutely love this place! I visited here for my birthday last year and had my graduation lunch with my friends on Monday. All of my friends have different interests in cuisines (I like Asian food and got the Ahi poke bowl but my other friends like American/italian, etc) but thirsty lion has a variety of cuisines so I love that! I also love that we came in just in time for happy hour which is 3-6 PM every day and the drinks were delicious so if you're 21+ I highly recommend this place! The drinks were also at a great price! My server was super nice and overall the vibes here were super nice! They had good music and we had a reservation so we didn't have to wait long. Another note to add is that my original reservation was later in the day but they were super nice and moved it up for me as my graduation ended early. Overall, 10/10 experience! I highly recommend!

This was my second time to have lunch at the Thirsty Lion. Here's my take on the place. 1. Both times we went, the place was crowded. Service was spotty at best. Our server today was preoccupied with something because she was not very attentive. She just didn't seem to care much. 2) The prices are quite high given what you are served. My Cobb salad was at best mediocre, and it was almost $18. The pretzels we had were very good though. The spicy chicken and the bacon wrapped shrimp we only so so. 3) Parking at this place is atrocious. Most of the lot is consumed by valet parking. This place is probably more suitable for a much younger crowd. A lot of people did look like they were enjoying themselves. In summary, the meal cost is too high, the service is only so so, the food is mediocre, and it was way too crowded. I know they can't fix everything and crowds are very unpredictable, but what sets off the best from the rest is impeccable service. I'll look elsewhere for this.

I don't like to complain about restaurants because your taste and expectations might not be the same as mine. I'll start by saying the cheese curds were AMAZING! So good! However, there was a rouge calamari in ours and that was NOT a welcome surprise, especially when I thought I was getting cheese. There was also a random noodle in my Orange Chicken. This leads me to believe there must be some serious cross contamination in that kitchen, which can be very dangerous to people like my husband with severe mushroom allergies. He ordered the burger and strangely it was half cooked. Like, one half was medium well like he asked and the other was almost RAW inside. Something must have been wrong with one of the burners...very strange. Again, makes me wonder what's going on in the kitchen which freaks me out.

My husband and I visited here for burger week, so my review is only based on the two sandwiches we tried. I'd probably rank Thirsty Lion Gastropub between good-great, but will round up to a 5 since that is not an option on here. They had a special menu for the burger week deal, which didn't include the Gastropub Burger that we wanted to try. I ordered the Jalapeño Burger. Overall, I was very satisfied with the quality and taste of the burger. While the taste of the burger was great, there was little to no spicy flavor. I actually didn't taste any jalapeños. Maybe they made modifications to it since it was a $7 deal, so it is possible that this complaint is only relevant for the burger week special. None of the burgers on the burger week menu stood out to my husband, so he ordered the Spicy Fried Chicken sandwich. The chicken had a nice crispy texture and a delicious flavor. For us the flavor was subtly spicy. It is great if you are not in the mood for something super spicy. It was a rainy day, and we chose to sit outside under the covered patio. The inside ambiance was nice, but it was pretty loud. We were the only ones sitting outside due to the rain, which was peaceful. We had a good experience with the service.

I love going to this place. The outdoor patio is very pleasant & the vibe is nice. Always clean, friendly environment & good service. I haven't had any issue with the food. My burger was very tasty, cooked just the way i ordered it, fries were so good. My boyfriend asked for the turkey club (i didn't try it bc i don't like maple bacon, BUT he loved it!

Really wasn't sure what to expect but we ended up loving it here! It was a very crowded Sunday evening - everywhere else at Grandscape, due to the event going on at the park, was nutso! Tried our luck at TLG and glad we did. :-) Ended up on the rooftop practically to ourselves (w great views all a round) with a funny and sweet bartender to boot, dang it I forget his name. Made me the best dirty martinis with blue cheese olives. The poke bowl was delicious!! The Romano chicken plate was also a winner! Looking forward to our next date night here!

Saw this place after shopping in Frisco and wanted to try it out. Couldn't get seated upstairs but took the downstairs area which didn't disappoint much. Great views of the sunset and even has a fire pit to sit around. The downside is the food though. I had the southwestern smoked chicken salad and I know I make better salads than this at home. Just tasted as if someone threw a "salad" together, took a chicken out the fridge, microwaved it, then cut it up and mixed it in. Didn't even finish it. My wife had the crispy chicken sandwich which wasn't bad but very breaded. The drinks were good! Good enough to get more than one espresso martini although it took a minute but I account that for it being busy. Nonetheless it's something if you're in the area

This was my first time checking out anything around the grandscape area and I came to the Thirsty Lion on a Tuesday just before 6 and was amazed at how busy it was on a weekday. There wasn't much room available at the bar and after waiting about 45 minutes they managed to get our party of 3 seated so my biggest advice would be to book a reservation if you are planning to check this place out. Once we managed to snag a table, the foods and drink got out pretty quickly and they had a nice mix of cocktails, beer, and upscale pub offerings. I had one of the specials, the black cherry bbq pork loin (~$23) as well as a beer and a Aperol spritz (~$13ish?). Booth were very enjoyable and when seated towards the back of the restaurant, the crowd didn't overpower conversation at the table either. Overall a pretty positive first impression other than the wait. It was raining on the day we went so we didn't get to check out the pretty amazing looking patio space that they have, but I wouldn't mind checking that out next time when the weather is nicer.

Went on a beautiful fall Saturday and was able to enjoy the outdoor patio. We did move tables due to the wind whipping around the building where we first sat but luckily that was not an issue. Clean restaurant and nice servers. We initially got the artichoke spinach dip and that was really good just needed a little salt or something. We like the chips it was served with too. We ordered the Gastropub burger medium and it came out well done. There was really just too much stuff on it honestly so you couldn't really taste the actual burger. The bacon on it was good though. The Brussels sprouts salad was absolutely perfect. I loved everything about it. The dressing was just the perfect amount of tart and sweet. We would come back and sit on the patio however they really need to add some TV's out there. We were kinda disappointed in that.

Made a reservation well in advance for Sunday at 1pm thru the website. Confirmed on Saturday online when sent the reminder. We walked in about 5/10 mins till 1 and got told it was a 45 min to an hour wait. When we asked what the point of the reservation was, we weren't given an answer, but they were able to "accommodate" us and sat us in about 15 mins. That already had a bad impression in our first visit there. Free valet parking for dining which we utilized. . Service was not the best, our server was nice but we had to keep asking for refills for the water brought to the table, and had to ask for extra glasses as only a few glasses were brought out with the water carafe. Had to constantly ask for refills on the kids drinks.. food was very overpriced for being pub food. . Out of the 7 diners who ordered I think only two got a thumbs up and it was the fish and chips for both. . . Kids menu is VERY limited. . Music videos played above the bars on tv, very loud inside with conversations. . This place is not a great place to have a meal, but might be worth checking out for a drink and shared appetizer but both will be pricey. More than likely won't go back. Party of 7 (5 adults 2 kids) $200 bill - no alcohol ordered

It was my first time at the Colony location. Busy Friday night as expected with a 30-minute wait. Tip, check out upstairs, and sit at the bar =no wait! I felt the prices were a little high for the quality. Service was slow, yet the food came out fast. Now for the food. Turkey Club was good, yet it was missing the avocado. Avocado is expensive, so that's a big hit when it's left off. The house salad was basic but decent. Just lettuce and dressing, nothing else. Burger was also mid, nothing spectacular for the price. Nothing that blew our socks off, so we probably won't be back.

We just had drinks and an appetizer but loved this place. Ambiance is a "snappy casual" and the food was great. We got the Ahi Poke Stack which had the freshest tuna with yummy wonton chips. We sat at the bar and the bartender was super nice and quick. Service was great.

We were looking for somewhere to go that had a nice outside as we plan for the evils and cold of the impending winter. We decided to go back to the Lion for a second visit to try the upper outside balcony even though I'm not a huge fan of how busy Grandscapes can be and was as usual. Parking was very full and decided to take advantage of the free valet parking in front of the restaurant. They give you a virtual tag for your keys and you can even use it to call your car up to the front when you are ready to go. When we walked in the down stairs dining room was very full but asked to sit outside up stairs and they sent us up the stairs to visit the hostess in that section and got an immediate seat outside on the railing with a great evening view. You are right above the merge lanes on the street so lots of action to watch near accidents and driver indecision with some angry honking. Free entertainment is always great. So the good news if they look busy go upstairs!! I was going to try most items from the limited time summer menu. I started with their fresh juice iced tea and went with the blood Orange and ginger. It was very good. The ginger took away from the sweet of the orange juice and worked well. I wanted to get the cedar plank salmon but they were out of the cedar planks so i had to pivot to the orange chicken. They chicken is noted as a tempura better. The orange sauce was very sweet but had a little spice but thought it was very tasty and well done and would recommend it. It came with white rice and an Asian style bean and carrot and pepper salad. To finish the meal decided to try the peach cobbler from the summer menu. It tasted very fresh and was a solid cobbler. It was a great dining experience and would recommend.

It took around 10 minutes for us to even be greeted. Once we were greeted, we immediately ordered our drinks and an appetizer. The appetizer made it to us promptly, but the drinks took around 20+ minutes. I will say that they took the drink off the tab, which we appreciated. The food was decent. When I had come in previous times, I really enjoyed their salmon - maybe even the best salmon I'd ever had. This time, my husband and I split a burger and the fish tacos; they were good, but not out of this world amazing. The restaurant was clean and had a good atmosphere overall.

Good service and good food! fresh squeezed juices are refreshing, just ask for little ice

Hands down the best BBQ burger I've ever eaten. They've nailed the sauce, meat, buns, etc... each bite was mouth-watering and full of flavor. I came here for seconds. My father had the jalapeño burger and shared the same satisfaction. Service is great. Interior design is nice. I will be coming here for quality burgers.

Returned to Thirsty Lion since finally closing our new house. Audrie took great care of us. We both ordered sandwiches & fries. Smoked Turkey sandwich is so good. It is piled high with smoked turkey meat & bread so yummy. Husband ordered Green Chili Chicken sandwich with napa slaw. He loved the flavor & slaw was terrific. Fries were so crispy, add peppercorn ranch for dipping which is made fresh daily. Audrie was so fun to talk with. She had great menu & drink suggestions too. Easy to make reservations online. You will love the food, staff & atmosphere!!

We were invited to a birthday lunch here one weekend and had never been before, so we were excited to try it out. The place was packed, but there was a section available for us, so we were seated. Cool vibe inside and outside dining, which was cool. We ordered our food, Asian meal for my daughter, which she loved. I was able to get a taste and it was very good.. something I'd get next time. I got the Mac with chicken.. it was good. Hubby got a burger, and son got sliders. All good. I saw others getting this chicken sandwich, which looked good as well. They even let you bring in your own cake which was cool as well. We will definitely go back as we are in the Grandscape area often.

Great place to try dinner with a friend. We had the most wonderful server- super friendly and attentive. Food: We started with the cauliflower appetizer- good flavors, I thought it was salty and could have been crispier- a little but raw on the inside. We also ordered a side of fries for a snicky snack as well- they were cold. Oy. We split the seared tuna salad- not quite enough tuna for $18- but really delicious and fresh salad. Loved the crispy wontons. The miso ginger dressing was so good! I love their menu and options, but still a couple of things to work out.

It's always a great time at Thirsty Lion. No matter what time of day you visit. The service, ambiance, and food are always pleasing. Live music outside on the patio, lots of outdoor seating.

We made reservations and we're seated immediately. The free valet makes parking so easy. The blood orange marg and the house marg were both eh. I was left wanting for more in the drink department. We got the brussels and cauliflower for appetizers. I personally love my brussels crunchy, but these seemed boiled and were soft. The flavor was good, but not my favorite. The cauliflower was amazing. I can't handle spice, but the spice was just in the sauce and was on the side. My brussels, chicken, and quinoa salad was amazing. I'm told the fish tacos were good as well. Overall, the food was good and the environment was comfortable. I'd recommend trying drinks other than the margs, but I'll definitely come back!

Me and my family came in here to have dinner on 5/23/24 and experienced the worst service. Family member accidentally spilled a drink and was handed towels to clean it up. Asked for more chips for the queso and never got them, son asked for pickles for his sandwich and soy sauce for my meal. The pickles came after asking a second time and soy sauce came from hostess. Drink refills were as sporadic as the waitress. Apparently there is no manager and that we ever saw and seemed very disorderly.!!!!Update. The someone reached out to me to let me know someone from the restaurant was going to apologize to me for the experience. :::: Failure ensued and this still has not happened!

I LOVE Thirsty Lion! I take all of my friends and family there every chance I get! I always ask for Melissa to serve me because she is one of the best servers I have ever had in any food establishment! I love the atmosphere - festive and fun! Their artichoke spinach dip is the best I've ever had so I have had that every time I have visited. The ahi poke bowl is great and fresh. I have ordered the grilled Atlantic salmon several times because it is my favorite!

Incredibly helpful and fun servers. Got the pretzel & spinach artichoke dip for our table. Ordered a flight of all the IPAs (love that their flights have six pours) and my husband got the Texas flight. Ordered the Tuscan Romano chicken and gochujang bbq pork and kimchi fried rice. Everything we had was delicious, and toward the end of the meal, our server asked us if we want a free ramen because the kitchen had made an extra! Took it home and enjoyed it later. Would definitely come back here. Also loved that is close to so many other indoor activity venues.

Food was awesome - highly recommend the Korean short ribs. We had a big group and everyone had different dishes that were all enjoyed. Service was impeccable. Adam was an amazing server to our group of 13.

Great spot in Grandscape! Came here for happy hour (3-6pm everyday) & they had good food and drinks deals. Our group ordered several plates to share. Everything was delicious! Our favorite was the spicy fried chicken sliders. A runner up that surprised us was the spicy cauliflower. Tasted like orange chicken! Yum!! Service was friendly and quick. Atmosphere was casual with lots of seating downstairs, upstairs, and outdoor patios (upstairs & downstairs). There is a a parking lot in front of the restaurant but seems to be blocked off for valet only. If you do not want to valet, there are several free parking lots & parking garages around Grandscape that are easily accessible and within a few minutes walk away. We'll definitely be back! Great place, good food!

Very neat vibes here!! Feels intimate and royally cool at the same time. The food selections are amazing and drinks even better. It's a great spot for date night or happy hour with friends! My favs happens to be the apps, but entrees are good portions and tasty as well! And don't forget to ask for their seasonal menu! They had a wonderful paella that I'm dying to have again! The service was quick and friendly! A great spot to visit while at Grandscape.

Happy hour food and drinks until 6 pm. Server was fabulous and accommodating to a large party. Ordered the Poke Bowl thinking it was the happy hour Poke Stack. I will go back to get the Poke Bowl again anytime. It was sweet, savory, tangy, and bitter. Hits every single taste bud. Yum! The upstairs bar opens later in the week and that's a fun setting.

After shopping, we visited Thirsty Lion for lunch. I'm not a burger person but their Wagyu Beef burger was delicious. It's a new item on their menu and it didn't disappoint me. The other burgers was good as well and their fries was really good. Our server was fast and knowledgeable but towards the end he didn't offer the dessert menu but we asked for it anyway. He took forever getting our order that we decided just to get the check. I was looking forward in tasting the bread pudding but it was going to be a long wait. It's a cute place with bar type of food. Real casual but with modern decor. They also have a rooftop dining but I didn't get to see it. Patio sitting would be nice when the weather gets warmer.

Service is super slow, we ordered a burger medium well and it came out completely red on the inside. Also ordered the "udon" pork ramen and it is pretty much spaghetti noodles. We aren't ones to complain or send food back, but this was egregiously bad. Too many things incorrect with false advertising. If you want drinks, it's a fun atmosphere, but be careful with the food. P.s. manager came and comped everything that was incorrect, the manager is solid. Everything else I said stands though.

Our server was amazing! She really made our visit pleasant. As a party of two, we dined up on the upper level which I believe was 21+. It was a nice dinner area with the option of balcony seating as well. I ordered the grilled chicken salad and my date ordered the salmon. Both entrees were good. To drink we ordered classic margaritas which were really good. You can tell that the bartender is experienced which was a plus!

I met up with a party of about 15 on a Thursday late afternoon. We had reservations so we were immediately seated. A few from our party arrived early and already had their drinks however the rest of us waited 20 minutes for someone to come take our orders and another 20 minutes to receive our drinks. Very poor service for a restaurant that was mostly empty besides our large party. After we received our drinks we no longer saw the original waitress apparently she couldn't handle it and was assigned another table. We ordered the chicken sliders and fries to share, the old fashioned and food were just ok. I don't plan on coming back when there are so many other restaurants to try.

Thirsty Lion is definitely a go to fun spot for food and a good time! I visited with a group of 15 people after a Womens conference. I had the Chicken Mac and Cheese and Calamari. Our server was super nice, and very efficient. She handled 15 people all on her own. Food was seasoned very well and there wasn't a long wait time between ordering and receiving the food.

The drinks are delicious, and there's something on the menu for everyone. From sushi to American and Asian fusion dishes, all of the entrees are tasty. With tvs and the bar area it's great for watching sports and taking the whole family! Our waitress was quick with the food and very amiable!

First time patron to the Thirsty Lion and they didn't disappoint! They were surprisingly busy later on a week night but service was on point! We actually took note that being such a large open space with a middle bar, lots of seating and music there was no issue being able to have a nice conversation at your table without having to shout. Pretty sure you could see the bar tvs from anywhere you sat too, they have a huge outdoor seating area as well. We started with the Scottish eggs and they were cooked to perfection! I went with the reuben sandwich and likewise, they didn't tweek this and kept it a fantastic traditional reuben likewise, it was fantastic. Now I know why on a late weekday this place was packed!! Great service, great food, perfect atmosphere I will most definitely be back to try more as the menu has so many options that look amazing!!

I was hesitant leaving a review here because I like the idea to frequent here but it's time to be honest. Overpriced, portion size is small, drinks aren't made right, roof top patio inconsistently fostered for welcoming a good crowd and last but not least, always understaffed. My guess is improper management or just how the company operates. Service is mundane as if they hate their job. Sucks because it has a lot of potential for the location but their bottom line probably won't prosper to its full potential due all mentioned above.

First visit and right off the top... music was way too loud. It was a Monday night and we were seated quickly. Service was a bit slow but they seemed to be bottlenecked at the bar waiting for drinks. We had the Southwest Chicken Salad and Pepperjack Burger with slaw. Burger was good but I was still hungry afterwards. Wife said the Chicken was over-marinated and too salty to eat. I tried it and she was right on (as usual). Back to the music. You know it's too loud when the server can't hear what your ordering. There's a fine line between a cool vibe and annoying. Deanna (mngr), it was annoying. We could barely carry a conversation. We won't be back until that's adjusted.

Let me tell you about my favorite (gluten sensitive) menu items: Bacon Wrapped Prawns: grilled with garlic herb butter, napa cabbage slaw, and a cilantro lime vinaigrette. 5 stars!! Sweet and savory at the same time. Always superbly cooked and seasoned. Spicy Tuna Roll: ahi tuna with Sriracha, green onion, cilantro, sticky rice, and nori. Served with fried lotus root, pickled ginger, and sesame. I don't usually order sushi at a restaurant that's not an actual sushi restaurant, but I've had this tuna roll a few times and it's always good! Sauteed Brussel Sprouts: sautéed with pepper, bacon, red onions, olive oil, and parmesan reggiano. Salty and hot and fragrant and delicious. Cobb Salad: greens, radicchio, arugula, roasted chicken, bacon, avocado, kalamata olives, gorgonzola cheese, cherry tomatoes, egg, roasted corn, and a blue cheese vinaigrette. They don't skimp on the ingredients. Really good! As far as drinks go, I like their mimosas made with fresh-squeezed juice (grapefruit, please). They also have a decent wine selection. Friendly staff, a million seats, big patio!

The chicken and waffles was yummy! Not spicy, but still good! Kids meals are huge! Friendly service!

We arrived to celebrate my daughter's birthday our server was very nice but rushed us to make a decision about what to eat. She got frustrated and tells me well I would rather be around than not. I literally did not have a second to breathe throughout the entire experience. Everytime I took a bite she was staring at me asking if everything was okay. I didn't get the time to catch up with my kiddos or enjoy my meal. We all left wishing we would have chosen something else to eat bc the food was just okay. We had the salmon which was dry and rice was flavorless. The bbq burger which was just mediocre. The chicken sandwich was good but the side salad had a mix of greens that did not go well together. The draft beer was flat and left a bad taste in my mouth like they don't clean their taps. Everything was overpriced in my opinion.

We sat outside to get some fresh air. Not the best decision. We asked for the heaters to be turned on, someone came out but never turned it on. When asked again if they could turn them on they responded on they don't work. Instead of telling us the heaters did not work they just walked off. We missed a second round of happy hour drinks and appetizers because the server deserted us. The chicken sliders were good. I had a blueberry lemon drop it was ok.

I visited this location during a work event and it is super big inside. It gives off a pub vibe with much more space. Our servers were all very nice and quick with our orders. They would check on us throughout the time we were there. I went with the chicken sandwich and I thought it was just okay. It was to much bread and barely any sauce, making it dry. The drinks were good though! The blood orange cosmo isn't sweet at all but it was still good.

Parking sux! The whole parking lot is blocked off for valet...no self parking unless u wanna hike 100 yards to the restaurant! Not convenient at all!! Looks like a cool place but I'll never eat here due to the parking!!

The food is fresh and so delicious! We've been here several times and everything we've tried has been good, not one dish has been just okay. The staff is friendly and attentive and make you feel welcomed and valued. Highly recommend this place and if you park in the far end of the garage, the stairs lead right into their parking lot which is easy and convenient.

WE LOVED THIS PLACE! Not sure where to start! But really goes to the Service! STANDING OVATION FOR MELISSA! SHE's a delightful and attentive Bartender. Took care of us throughout! And she makes a mean Manhattan! Aaron the Manager is a rockstar and Noah is quite adept at cleanup! Let's move on to atmosphere where I felt the Leather Chairs at the Bar were absolutely amazing and comfortable. Top that with the pedestal appropriate for short folks like my wife and me and you have a WIN/WIN. Finally got some Calamari and it was delicious. We cannot wait to return!

This is such a complete package for a celebratory evening with your people! The vibe and the Grandscape view of The Colony with a Ferris wheel on the side just lifts your mood. Good food, cocktails and good service- very welcoming!! Will definitely visit again!

This place had really good, decent food and the service was also pretty nice. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because it was EXTREMELY loud here. I couldn't hear most of what people were saying without them shouting. What I liked most is how the menu said it used fresh ingredients which was pretty good, and overall I would recommend this to anyone who likes food and sports bars.

Tried Thirsty Lion last Friday around 4pm for an early dinner. Great service and food! Our server (wish I remembered her name) was amazing. Extremely friendly and seemed to genuinely love her job. We started with the hibiscus basil lemonade which was perfectly sweet, tart, and herby. Shared the beer battered cheese curds for our app and I had the crispy calamari and spicy cauliflower for my entree. EVERY.SINGLE.ITEM.WAS.DELICIOUS. The cheese curds were actually light (how? I dunno). Perfectly tempura fried little balls of cheese that made my tastebuds happy. Followed with the perfect calamari and cauliflower, I was a happy camper. Everything also came with a delicious sauce to complement the dish. We live in Dallas but will absolutely be back to try more of their menu (and of course get the cheese curds).

Food was great! French dip Service was excellent. Edith was very attentive, had my espresso martini prepared as i asked for it and my meal was timely. Edith also checked with me often to be sure all was well or if i needed anything else. Excellent! Ambiance - i ate upstairs. Its a little cozier and less crowded. Just the way i like it. Very glad you have that upstairs option! Highly recommended!!

Food & Service were great Love the atmosphere and the people watching. The valet was nice as well. We'll be back .... soon.
