Food is great, our server was prompt, nice and informative. My only “complaint” which knocked down a star for service was having to wait a little longer then I would expect when having a reservation. Of course we will go back. The Thirsty Lions in the Portland area are all very good.

This was my son’s specific request for his 21st birthday… the food was excellent, something for everyone in our party. Even with some pretty specific dietary restrictions. They brought him birthday brownie, hot from the oven, with a CARD THE EMPLOYEES SIGNED! Way to keep it classy Thirsty Lion! You found a small way to make him feel so special ! Will DEFINITELY be coming here again

The person I was meeting arrived earlier and so was seated before I arrived. I wasn’t able to contact her at that time if she reached there or not. However when I arrived I was seated at a different table as the person at the reception claimed that the other person I was meeting didn’t arrive. Previously she was unable to find my reservation through open table, until I pointed it out to her! And the person at the reception also said that the reservations made through open table do not matter as they do not always come through their system! Later when I spotted my friend I moved over to that table but I was asked by the server to carry my plate and a hot cup on my own to that table! We wasted over 15 mins due to this and skipped ordering drinks that day.

Greeted as soon as we walked through the door and seated immediately. Our server then came up to introduce himself and waited for us to look at the menu. He was very attentive and personable! Food was delicious! My husband was accidentally delivered the wrong beer, which our server quickly recognized and offered to change but my husband didn’t mind as he already drank some before noticing. We’ll definitely return.

While WE thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service (impeccable) the background noise would make me reconsider if I would want to sit inside again I am a vet who is 40% hearing impaired, due to aviation exposure, so it was very difficult at times for me to hear my doctor and his wife who sat across from me

Great experience. What we enjoy about Thirsty Lion is that it is like visting an old friend. You are always greeted warmly and they are glad to see you. Our server Lauren could not have been better. Despite the fact that the restaurant was busy she never appeared hurried.Lauren and her team were first class. If you haven’t been to Thirsty Lion do yourself a favor and go. You will not be disappointed .

We didn’t realize she had even dropped the check, we waited 10 minutes before we realized it was under the dessert menu. Then it took another 15 minutes to pay. Never asked if we wanted more drinks. The people next to us waited so long to be greeted, they left.
