Extremely disappointed in their brunch menu for those with allergies of any kind! Not quite sure why they can't have a gluten-free piece of toast or gluten-free English muffin available for avocado toast. These are easy to keep in the freezer until someone orders them. The potatoes, that come with the Omelette, are not gluten-free as they do them in a fryer. Again, I don't understand why they can't just pan fry them pretty easily instead of cross-contamination. Plus they use flour in their hollandaise sauce. They only have a gluten-free bun for hamburgers and I was only offered a salad after the potatoes came out and they said that I wouldn't be able to eat them. While I appreciate our server being smart enough to understand that they could make me sick, I'm disappointed that this restaurant does not have other choices available. You're better off going to Ches Maggy's where they do have more choices. Definitely not worth the $19 I spent on an omelette!

I brought my whole family to the Thirsty Lion over the weekend. Charlotte was my server, and she was incredible. Not only is she efficient and timely, but warm and friendly as well. She referred the poke bowl and it was delicious. My family really enjoyed their food as well, and they accommodated my mom who is gluten free. We will definitely be returning again.

We really enjoyed our time at the thirsty lion! Our waitress, Wendy, was fantastic! I appreciate that there are gluten-free options. Everything was delicious!
