    As always good was amazing! I have to eat gluten free, so I appreciate all the GF options. It was quite loud (1 very large birthday party in the Bay Area and another party in the dining area. Our waiter was great - despite being having 4 tables sat one after another.

    Great experience, food was very good the chicken fajitas were excellent. Service was attentive yet not intrusive. For as busy as it was the noise level was never an issue to affect having a conversation. We highly recommend Mexican Sugar and will be back!

    This is one of the finest vegan restaurants I've had the pleasure of dining in. Chef Troy's reputation precedes him and is validated in the offerings at TLC Vegan. I solicit this is the #1 Vegan restaurant in Dallas!

    We went to Thirsty Lion on Valentine’s Day, which was yesterday. We had the Valentine’s Day specials. The shrimp was amazing and my salmon was so good. There was a pairing of wine, white or red with our meals. I believe Ashton was our server. She is actually going to school and working two days a week and was very nice. We enjoyed visiting with her! We made a reservation for 3 o’clock since we were on our way and were afraid that we would not get in for their special! We love this location in The Colony, highly recommend! Just remember that they do not have happy hour on holidays!
