We both enjoyed our delicious dinners. He tried the mediterranean chopped chicken bowl and really liked it. I enjoyed the bacon wrapped BBQ prawns which has become my favorite starter item. Oh wait..The highlight of my Sunday dinner was the new fall menu item: cinnamon churros with chocolate topping & delicious vanilla ice cream. This dessert should definitely be an all year round item!!!

We had a party of 4 adults and 2 of us got salads, the Grilled Chicken Cesar and Smoked Southwest Chicken salad. The others ordered the Ruben on Rye and the Cheeseburger, both with fries. All the food was great, cooked to our requests and there were only leftovers because of the portion sizes being large. We also ordered the BBQ Bacon Wrapped Shrimp appetizer and ended with the Brownie dessert. It was all very good and Ashley, our server, was attentive and accommodating! They have happy hour 7 days a week from 3-6 or 7 in the entire restaurant! Thirsty Lion is a good option for sports watching with lots of tvs, they have upbeat music or you can go for date night or just to hangout.
