Espe was amazing and very accommodating! Has great recommendations. Also very friendly, definitely recommend:)

Food, as always in the last year or so was on-point. The service received by Mason ON MOTHERS DAY (read here: mayhem quality numbers of guests) was absolutely the most lovely experience I have had in the Portland area in years--including much more "haute" destination restaurants. Mason: Affable. Capable. Attentive. Timely. Built rapport. Made my mom feel cared about on her (and many other mommas') special day. Not sure how well my Pops tipped...but I hope Mason gets some professional love from Thirsty Lion leadership for the role he plays in that place. We will keep coming back! Thank you! Thank you! read more

We sat outside with the heaters for a special family event and the temperature varied from hot to freezing, so be prepared and also, it's December :) not sure what I expected. We did get the happy hour food menu and it was decent, but the beverages - I'm not sure they had any booze in them (order beer) and sadly our server had a ton of tables inside and maybe 2-3 outside, but was incredibly slow with us (*though I did notice they had 4 people standing around at the front door doing nothing) We had to ask for almost everything (forks, plates, went inside to ask for another round and to turn on the heat) and the 3% of gratuity added in for "back of house" (do the servers not tip out the kitchen?) is a new one to me :) but honestly our food bill was reasonable for 7 ppl Likely won't return unless I want a beer and the loud scene of Portland westside folks...or on a sunny day, if the tents we were in are gone and patio open. read more

We had a FANTASTIC experience at the Thirsty Lion for our company's holiday party! We brought a group of around 17 into the restaurant and they had not only excellent service, but well paced service! We were evil, and almost everyone of us ordered the Holiday Ribeye (which was STELLAR) and they were able to get them all out in less than 45 minutes. There was one part where we ordered more than the restaurant could provide and Howard came to our table and apologized and made it up to us, took responsibility and showed his MASTERFUL skills in hospitality. Our company is a hotel that has the pleasure of welcoming guests from their company, so as a colleague in hospitality I cannot commend Howard's skills, attitude and team enough. Also! Our server Dennis was a pro at handling such a disorganized group as ours. He and the team paced the whole 2 hours phenomenally and truly made the meal into an EXPERIENCE that will be looked at as a quality event for a long time. Thirsty Lion is a must stop for anyone coming by Washington Square. read more

Happy hour menu is good. Not many vegan options. I ordered a spicy margarita but it wasn't spicy. Definitely a bit of a wait to order and get food but the server was nice! It was nice seeing in the patio too. read more

We went for Sunday brunch as a family of four, checked out the menu beforehand and there was something for everyone. My 11 year old son said he wanted breakfast tacos- they had them! My six year old daughter wanted Mac and cheese . Husband wanted mimosas and I wanted a poke bowl . Our server was Colleen and she was fantastic, very welcoming and sweet to our kids. She checked on us many times, even though it was busy. Highly recommend the poke bowl and the $28 bottle of Prosecco with your choice of fresh squeezed juice. read more

This is a great option near Washington square mall! Parking is easy and the menu is versatile. A really great place to watch a game in a fun atmosphere. The menu has a lot of appetizers and a solid drink menu. Only a few burger and pizza options. Prices are on the higher side. Service was attentive and friendly for the most part. Our only challenge was having to wait for a table on a Sunday night, but that wasn't the staff teams fault Clean bathrooms, kind staff and amazing drink options! Be sure to check it out. read more

Sorry, but I feel actively misled. I was looking for a good restaurant. This felt like the Applebee's of trying to find a gastropub. The menu looks good, the website is slick, there is a seasonal menu and promises of trying to use local ingredients, but the food was gross. Incredibly greasy and saucy. Items such as teriyaki chicken, spicy cauliflower, and fries had obviously been sitting under a heat lamp for hours - stale and gummy. I can't believe this is a tacky chain place. I didn't even think it was legal to say "scratch kitchen" and "gastropub" on a place of this caliber. Service was also slow, disorganized and obviously overworked. Just a horrible experience. DO NOT BE FOOLED! This food is mediocre. There is tons of amazing food in Portland, no reason to come here. read more

First-time to this Beaverton outpost of the Thirsty Lion. I went to meet up with friends for Brunch. Their brunch menu is not necessarily big but does have just a little bit of everything for people from the traditional eggs, bacon and toast, which is what I had, to chilaquiles, spicy chicken and waffles, breakfast tacos, spinach omelet and French toast. They also havecl a wide array of breakfast cocktails. I had a traditional scrambled eggs, maple bacon, potatoes and toast. They give a nice big amount of maple bacon! Smothered in maple syrup basically. I had enough for breakfast the next day! Goid to know, the place is family friendly and can get a bit noisy. read more

Food was great here. We tried the seasonal Ahi Tuna dish and really enjoyed the flavor. We also did the stuffed dates and they were our favorite by far. It was a busy night but service was still good. We will be back to try more soon! read more

It really is amazing that they have all the ingredients so I simply asked if they could make me a chicken parmigiana and wolla they made an amazing lunch for me! read more

My friends and I had not seen each other in weeks we were looking for a local spot to catch up, we stopped by the Thirsty Lion, typically we have a good experience, the staff at the door were very friendly but then the waitress that supported our area was less then friendly. We ordered a few happy hour items and some drinks, things seem to start well but as it got busier our waitress seemed to loose patience and did not come around as much. It's Xmas and the mall is right around the corner, you would think that business would increase there staff and coach there teams around being even more customer friendly. The food was great as well as the drinks but the way we were treated was unprofessional. Thankfully we have many other options in supporting other local companies. The waitress could have kept her commitments to herself if she was overwhelmed, ask for help, don't take it out on your customers. read more

I had Irish shepherd pie Hot and delicious Service was good as well, ambience is that of bar still great though read more

It's been awhile since I been back here. The place is still as spacious as before with additional coveted outdoor seating available. We came for the early happy hour. The standout items would be the beer battered cheese curds followed by the creamy queso dip. The cheese curds had a good exterior texture and a nice soft texture. The service was good as we were made sure that we had what we needed. read more

Brunch disappointment usually this is a great spot to meet up and eat met family for brunch on Sunday - ordered the avocado toast --- seriously the WORST effort I have ever seen -- 2 slices of whole wheat bread - toasted and cut diagonally and topped with what looked and tasted like the small guacamole containers from Costco... that's IT - ??? bread and some brown guacamole spread on top ...true - that is the definition of 'avocado toast' - but i have never seen such a weak presentation and quality statement from a full-service restaurant EVER if you are going to 'half-ass' the brunch effort then you should close it and just serve the lunch menu my wife had the Huevos rancheros...better than the avocado toast but not even close to something that you would order again either read more

Friday night dinner with grandkids. I reserved a table for 7 online and we were able to be seated 10 minutes early. Plenty of staff on hand and surprisingly a lot of open tables for a Friday night. Server takes drink order and we put food order in as well as we have hungry kids at the table. Ten minutes later 2 of the 3 beers arrived table side without kids drinks and 3rd beer. Several minutes expire and several staff pass our table without the remaining drinks I finally get a server's attention and she looks into it. Remaining drinks arrive but no signs of our Beer Cheese Soup. A pattern is taking place and it is apparent service is incredibly slow. Soup finally arrives and it is very good but we are now 30 minutes past time of order. We finish soup, bowls sit empty as we await kid meals and adult entrees. Almost an hour after ordering our meals arrive. Water glasses sit empty as does other drinks. Servers depart quickly as if they were heading to a fire. We are left with no water or drink with dinner. My recommended dish, the Pork with Kimchi Rice lacked heat yet had an overpowering smoke taste. The Kimchi Rice was lacking kimchi and crisp instead it was more mushy in texture. It was edible but far from expectations. Others seem to enjoy their dishes so the night was not a complete disaster. Check finally arrives and I notice a 3% service charge. I inquire as to the charge and I'm told it is to help cover increased wages. Wait, I am supposed to pay the owners a fee to cover staff. Service was not good as noted and yet a fee above tip and regular charges is on my bill. Our server says she will take the charge off if I don't want to pay it. Without hesitation I concur and service charge is removed. This review could have easily been 2 stars but staff although incredibly slow were very polite and therefore review is 3 stars. Don't know if we will ever return. read more

Took my family of four here the food was bad. We were all pretty disappointed, drinks were not good either . Kind of ruined our night. Never going back - read more

Their food is good yet you can't hear your own conversations because the music is so loud. If you ask staff if they can turn it down they tell you sorry we can't. Someone I'm having lunch with soon suggested this location and I declined this option and suggested a different restaurant. read more

Sorry but our server was not it, Sam did not check on us once during our lunch and was stand off-ish when taking our order. The only person who checked on us was I'm guessing another server or bartender who was very friendly and understanding, he also was the one who we payed with at the end. Love the thirsty lion in Tanasbourne, this location, not so much. We also had to send back fries due to them being A) cold and B) soggy/not fully cooked. read more

They have a separate GF menu which had a grilled chicken sandwich. I had the Reuben and fries which was typical pub fare on the greasy side. Music was very loud; appreciated the manager that was able to lower the volume in our section. Our server was awesome as well as celiac aware. Note that this restaurant has a 3% service charge; would rather have had that reflected in the menu pricing. read more

Met with my celiac girlfriend, they had a gluten free menu, made things easier. We ordered so many small plates, it was nearly a tapas meal. Service was a bit slow, albeit friendly, and the food made up for it. We had cheese stuffed dates, queso dip, sliders, fried Chicken sliders, and sushi. Definitely a wild range of food. read more

Went there for a Friends birthday. Table 4, 6:30pm, waiter Dennis. The food was great as always. Highly recommend the Chicken Tenders. 3 of us had those. But the service was completely lacking. It wasn't that busy on a Tuesday Night April 7, 2026. The service was so incredibly slow. We ordered drinks to start..it took awhile. Then ordered food. Took awhile. NO one ever came back to ask if we wanted additional drinks. We had to wildly raise our hands to order desserts. Then no one came to pick up plates as we sat and waited for our bill. Again, had to wildly raise my hand. We tipped, because we didnt know if it was our waiter or the kitchen. It will be some time before we ever come back. read more

Was excited to try Thirsty lion however I was a bit underwhelmed. The food was okay, it wasn't bad but wasn't memorable. We tried some of the cheese curds, pretzel, and chicken dish. Service- our server was attentive but not very warm. We also had mentioned to him we would be sharing a dish when we ordered. He never mentioned there's a " split fee" until we got the check we saw it. I even looked all over the menu and I didn't see any print about split fees. On top of that - the other members of my party were charged $2.75 split fee and we were charged $3 split fee. Absolutely ridiculous. Not coming back. Don't recommend. read more

Can close 15mins earlier than listed times, so maybe avoid if later in the night to be safe!

Drinks were forgotten. Appetizers arrived, and entree two minutes later. Music too loud, table next to us wasn't bussed. Understaffed and over busy! Food was acceptable but overall plenty of room for improvement! read more

We stopped in here with a party of four for dinner. We've been here a couple of times before and each experience has been similar. This visit seemed to be a busy night so we had a short wait for a table, approx 10 minutes. Our friendly host sat us and we were served waters quickly. We ordered a variety of appetizers, dinners, and desserts. Everything was very good. We were enjoying the company of our visiting friends so we didn't mind the long wait for our food and drinks. If you come on a busy night be prepared to have a longer wait for service and food. Most of it is worth the slightly longer wait. read more

About 6 of us showed up for a lunch and had no problem getting a table. We enjoyed the fried cheese curds and pretzel for apps (although beer cheese was a bit runny) and transitioned to a good salad bowl for lunch. I enjoyed the ambiance and music of the place and our service was good! read more

Happy hour menu is on the website but they have no pricing available. Not sure how to decide if it's worth going if they don't show pricing.

Our second time here. First time was terrible service and this time we had two servers! Food was excellent again and now with good service too we are happy customers. Will come back again! read more

Loved the food. Service was ok. Ambiance was loud and too cold, but otherwise midscale. It was pretty crowded when we visited on Friday night. Loved the calamari, gastropub burger, and grilled salmon, all so tasty and perfectly prepared. Would definitely return. read more

Amazing food today! It was lunch hour. So extremely busy. Very loud. The music made it so anyone with a slight hearing issue won't be able to carry on a conversation. Server was friendly. Lovely decor. Wide variety of menu options. read more

I'm always happy with the service, food, drink and vibe. Fav neighborhood spot. Love the music

A little surprised by the current star rating of this place. I've never had a bad meal here, and in fact they've all been stellar. If I had a complaint it would just be the occasional wait for a table or a minor waiter screwup, but these can be found anywhere, and honestly the food is so good that the waiter could punch me in the face when he brought it to me and I'd be like That's all right. The burgers are 10/10, and I also highly recommend the Caesar salad. This place always slaps. read more
