    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!

    Mussels were excellent as always - sad twinge to realize it may be the last taste now that this gem is closing. Chopped salad and redfish were great. Bread pudding was out of this world. This is such a GREAT place! Another victim of corporate greed. I will miss y'all Meddlesome Moth! I know it will be hard to replicate elsewhere because some of the charm is embedded in the structure. But I hope you try. Vaya con Dios!
