   We unfortunately didn’t have the best service. Thirty minutes at the table and I had to ask for a server . (maybe just an off night) but the company was great. We ended up only having appetizers and drinks because the server seemed uninterested or distracted .

   Hostess and wait staff were great! Personable and very efficient. Busy restaurant but never felt rushed. Menu items were numerous and we were very happy with our choices. Will definitely return.

   Really disappointed by the service and wait time to get our food. Waitress said they had a lot of tickets?!?!? That’s the business but our food sat at a counter and to see a manager move it from one side to another and not serve it to us…. Really disappointed…. Don’t waste your time and money…

   We had dinner before an event we were going to at the Diamond Desert arena. We were seated at 5:25 pm and placed our orders for a total of four appetizers about 10 minutes later. Time continued to pass as we awaited our food. At 5:55 pm we asked our server Trinity about the status of our food order. We had become concerned because we wanted to head over to our event at 6:30 pm. She stated she would check on our order. Three of our four appetizers arrived at 6:20 pm. The fourth appetizer arrived about 5 minutes later. My wife and I had approximately 15 minutes to eat our food, already missing our goal of leaving the restaurant later than we planned. We were very disappointed to put it mildly being this was our second visit to this location. Our first visit was actually great so we were very disappointed with the delay of our food on our second visit. Our server stated she would bring a printed receipt to us after paying but we never received it. We could no longer afford to wait for the receipt due to having our event to get to, so we left without receiving the receipt.

   Service was fantastic. Our server Sierra was very friendly and had a great personality. We had a larger group of ten and everyone was taken care of with effortless professionalism. Thank you!

   Arrived - and hostess said she couldn’t not find my reservation- accused me of having wrong location. So I proceeded to show her that I was indeed correct. With Attitude she said she would figure it out. When it came to sit us she said “just go upstairs”. Our server was great Drinks were not good. Food was mediocre- slightly disappointed

    We went to the Thirsty Lion for dinner on Valentine’s Day. This was the first time for us. The server was very good, the food was delicious. We’ll definitely come back!
