My husband and I liked the food very much! I don't remember the name of our waitress! However, she was very sweet and attentive. I'm glad she was the one that served us because all of the other girls had stiff faces that never smile. It makes you not want to come into the restaurant. My recommendation is to tell the employees at The Little Lion to smile more Life is too short! Don't make it miserable for yourself and others! Your business will surely flourish with a better attitude!

Our first visit was fantastic! Food was excellent and service was phenomenal. Our server (she had a pineapple tattoo on her arm) was super nice and the kids really liked her. Our second visit in the same week was not the same. Food was still delicious, but the service was very slow and the food took almost 45 minutes to come out (two kids meals and a cheese steak sandwich). We would come back, but not during happy hour.

Great food! Stopped to grab a bite to eat prior to catching a phillies game and so I'm glad we did. Their fried green tomatoes are awesome and the sweet potatoes fries with molasses are to die for! The burger and even the simple grilled cheese my daughter orders were incredible. Would definitely go back!

The food and atmosphere was excellent. We both had The Lion Burger and it was delicious. Our server was excellent as well. However, we saw lots of empty tables and yet a line of people waiting. It was odd.
