    One meal was incorrect twice, another once. Restaurant made it correctly quickly. The soda machine was running out of syrup and it took awhile to get server’s attention to change them out. The food was good.

    The Brunch at Thirsty Lion was delicious! The food selection was great and the service was excellent. I ordered the Chicken and Waffles. It did not disappoint. The chicken breast was plump and juicy. I will definitely be having Brunch again at Thirsty Lion.

    We enjoyed a nice brunch on Sunday. Server was new, I think, and forgot drink orders several times. Overall, food and friends made it a positive experience.

    Took a long time for waiter to take drink order. Then it took forever to get the drinks. When the drinks came the food came at the same time. The French fries were mushy and nit crisp, other than that the food was very good. Just really disappointed in the speed and quality of service.
