Service by Sierra....The BEST. She's an amazing young lady. Everything else, can and will fall in place, but the foundation of such a person is where it is built from. They are lucky to have her. 

Business response:

Your support and kind words made our day! Thank you for the wonderful 5-star review — we look forward to seeing you again at Thirsty Lion.

The Jalepeno Pepperjack and the BBQ White Cheddar burgers were fabulous. My fiancé wanted to slap cook as he felt "It's illegal to have a burger that good " 

Business response:

My second visit wasn't as good as my first, but maybe that's because they had just opened. We waited several minutes before anyone came to seat us. Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly, but our waitress wasn't very friendly and seemed like she didn't want to be there. I got the fried chicken mac and cheese, which was like eating a bowl of grease. I tried some of the ramen -- it was decent. My sister liked her tacos. Overall, it was fine, but nothing to be too excited about.

Poke bowl was good, and service was fast even though they were pretty busy. Clean restaurant

Saw a video on Tik Tok where a drunk bald man assaulted your female employee and you simultaneously fired her. We will never be going here. Disgusting!

The food was absolutely horrible. Burnt over cooked fries replaced with burnt over cooked fries. Burnt chicken replaced with a pasta dish which I believe had FAKE 3D chicken. It would not break down so it could be a swallowed. Arizona has accepted the fake food. IMPECCABLE SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!

Always a good meal. Our work team meets for dinner at the Thirsty Lion whenever we have an event in Glendale. There are plenty of dinner options near the stadium, but the Thirsty Lion has become our favorite. Good service and good food every time. 

Business response:

We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your kind words along with the 5 stars, Tony. It means the world to us here at Thirsty Lion to know that we could provide a memorable experience for you. We look forward to serving you again!

Dined: 11/22/25. We had a group of 9. Our server wasn't very good at all. She brought the wrong drinks (different types of beers and mixed drinks), forgot to take one of our guests order, the food came out in different times (entrees ahead of apps or with apps), didn't check back after the entrees and apps were delivered, didn't ask if we wanted dessert, only had 1 credit card machine for 5 checks (which took forever), out of the 9 guests, only 2 enjoyed their entrees (which were salads). Their Rueben is terrible (especially... read more

Service was terrible everyone was short/rude. I ordered one spicy mango Margarita ad it was good ordered a second and it was ridiculously sweet told the. Bartender and she grabbed it and threw the drink down the sink no apology and I said sorry multiple times. Got a new drink out was better. Then our food came my husbands burger was okay but fries were well over cooked. My shrimp tacos were nearly frozen they were so cold even my beans were cold. It was not edible. Will not be returning
