What seems to be incorrect about my answers?
A mí me encanta los huevos fritos.
A ti te fascinas los restaurantes franceses.
A ellos os falta tiempo para beber el café.

Los huevos are plural and the subject, encantan- essentially the eggs "enchant" you. Keeping in mind we do not use enchant as broadly in English.
Los restaurants are the subject- fascinan- the restaurants fascinate you, you don't fascinate the restaurants, now do you?
A ellos does not match os- the pronoun is les. Time is lacking for them.
A mí me encantan los huevos fritos.
A ti te fascinan los restaurantes franceses.
A ellos les falta tiempo para beber el café.

So that's the reason. - Myspanishisbad, Oct 24, 2014
Yes, Spanish sometimes uses an object verb subject word order. You have to get used to it. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 24, 2014
Time is lacking for them...huh? - Rey_Mysterio, Oct 24, 2014
They don't have time is the normal expression in English, I was trying to show him how it works in Spanish. - bosquederoble, Oct 24, 2014
