   I have had consistently excellent experiences at Thirsty Lion in Gilbert. This visit we enjoyed their St Patrick’s Day specials which were very good, as well as well made martinis. The bacon wrapped shrimp was an excellent appetizer to start. Our server Azul did a great job, and made our visit really nice.

   If you’re black and want to be starred down by a bunch of nonblack people don’t come here. The food is subpar at best and the ambiance was not a comfortable feeling. We also watched our food sit in the window for 20 minutes and it was cold when we got it.

   Enjoyed the food and the service was excellent. The family liked the place, especially the giant pretzel.

   We were greeted by the host who took awhile to find our reservation. Once she found it, she was very polite and sat us outside. There were three other tables with guest outside. We sat only to have a server walk by us four different times and not get acknowledged. She probably wasn’t our server but she could’ve at least let somebody know we were out there. We sat for 15 minutes completely ignored until we finally decided to get up walk out the side gate and go to a different restaurant. It was very disappointing. I am in the restaurant industry and have been for over 30 years and I am in management. Nobody acknowledged us. It was a sad date night experience.

   We love going to this restaurant and Valentine’s Day did not disappoint. The Valentines prefix menu was a great value, and all of it was excellent. Our server was outgoing and attentive.
