Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Frisco

Best birthday dinner, day and vibe EVER❤️❤️!!! We will definitely be back!!

We come here all the time at least every other week, and we also bring out of town guest here cause it’s one of our two favorite restaurants in the area. As always, we met a reservation through OpenTable at 7 PM on Saturday. We arrived about 10 minutes early and the restaurant was very busy. Other people were waiting to be seated. After our reservation time at past, my husband asked a lady at the front must’ve been a manager of some kind, not one of the hostess gals, how much longer. We waited until several other people come in tables of four that we’re getting seated before us. Maybe they had a reservation or maybe not? Maybe they didn’t. We didn’t know. Again, my husband returns and asked the same lady what was going on and she tells us never heard this in any restaurant we down at a lot she tells us they didn’t have a two top available so they were just seeing four tops so she sat three tables of four before us we’re about to leave. And she said when you said I can give you a free appetizer I wanted to say lady I don’t want a free appetizer. I wanna sit down and have my meal. We ended up sitting at the bar and Meredith took care of us. She’s awesome. She knows how to provide great service very friendly always around. She save the night for us and for you. Meredith should be acknowledged for going above and beyond. I do have to say, though the lady told us it’s a policy of the restaurant we’ve been going there for seven years consistently and I’ve never had that happen and we’ve never seen that happen in any other high-end restaurant in this area or anywhere we’ve ever lived knowing that now not sure how often will be able to return because we are only typically a party of two. Thank you, Betty S

Many visits here, this was the most lively and crowded due to National Margarita Day. Our server was excellent and unruffled by the loud party atmosphere. We had table side margaritas which was a fun touch. The squash blossom quesadillas are the best, the enchiladas were great! The pork chop was so-so not much seasoning but overall always a great experience. Our go to spot in Plano for fresh Mexican food.

We went to Thirsty Lion on Valentine’s Day, which was yesterday. We had the Valentine’s Day specials. The shrimp was amazing and my salmon was so good. There was a pairing of wine, white or red with our meals. I believe Ashton was our server. She is actually going to school and working two days a week and was very nice. We enjoyed visiting with her! We made a reservation for 3 o’clock since we were on our way and were afraid that we would not get in for their special! We love this location in The Colony, highly recommend! Just remember that they do not have happy hour on holidays!

Service was great. Food was very good. Music a bit too loud.
