This is a AWESOME place. Friends took me there for my birthday. Food was delicious. Ambiance was cozy and friendly. Service was outstanding. I admired a T shirt advertising the restaurant at the end of the night-- and guess what-- they gave it to me as a birthday present. Thanks to everyone there that night for a wonderful dinner.

A high-end restaurant with a lovely, non pretentious atmosphere. The dining room has this row of giant multi-paned windows that look across the street at a similar old building, which was quite a lovely view with the snow flying on this early evening in February. Their wine list is well thought out with quality and high-end selections at fair prices. The cocktail list is well rounded. I know they have beer, but I can not attest to the options. The food is outstanding, from start to finish. Everything is prepared by a master chef and served to you by an impeccable waitstaff. In a town with a lot of great dining options, this establishment stands out.Dietary restrictions: Will work with you.Parking: I've never had a problem parking.

Everything at The Glass Onion is terrific. We celebrated a birthday there recently and our meal, service, beverages, and ambiance were all great. The Glass Onion is our favorite restaurant in Falmouth - hands down. The lobster strudel is always amazing and the deserts are great too. Highly recommend !

We went to dine here for dinner with a reservation. It was a nice quiet evening, not packed but still busy. We were welcomed as soon as we walked in, and taken to our table. The menu for the food is small, but the wine menu is much bigger. We ordered some cocktails, and 2 appetizers to share. The cocktails all had strong colors, especially the Rub-a-dub-dub, almost unhealthy color (LOL) but with an adorable little ducky on it! The server told us that we are welcome to take the ducky with us if we wanted to keep it. The flavors of the cocktails are a-ok, not the best I've had. The server told us all the specials of the night, and we ordered one of the appetizer special, which was a duck leg with noodles. It was so delicious! The meat was tender and packed with flavor, and the noodles had Asian noodle flavor which we all loved. The second appetizer was a lobster strudel, which sounded interesting. It had super crunchy phyllo exterior and moist lobster meat in the inside. Slightly heavy on the salt but otherwise, tasted really nice. For the main, we ordered Seafood Risotto, Seared Scallops, and Wester Ross Salmon. They were presented elegantly on the plate, good quality and nice flavors. Then we decided to get a couple of desserts to share. We ordered one of the special of the night, whiskey chocolate cake with whipped cream and chocolate mousse. It was rich and chocolate-y, delicious! The other dessert was Creme Brulee, a classic. It was a nice size for us to share, creamy and very tasty! The server was really nice, polite, friendly, and we were taken care of throughout the evening. A nice little restaurant with upscale atmosphere and dishes.

Drink prices have an up charge that I personally don't agree with. All drinks should be posted in full.

Dined here two weeks ago for our Anniversary. The food and ambience were great. All of our dishes were delicious and arrived hot from the kitchen. The salmon was especially enjoyable. Andrew was our server and was very attentive, he even put a candle in the dessert which was a nice touch. Would highly recommend!

I have had this restaurant on my list (45 minute drive away)and last night we finally went. From the minute we walked in- I loved the atmosphere, the menu, they greeted us so nicely and sat us at a nice booth that I knew it was going to be good! It was more than just good- it was amazing. The menu selection was perfect, the food and the service was all top notch! I wish they were closer to us, but I will spread the word because they deserve it. Thank you Glass Onion for a fabulous night out!

Hubby and I went away to the cape for our 10 year anniversary and picked this restaurant as a special night out. We arrived a little early but they seated us right away in the front glass window which was so cool. It was the old glass so when you looked out it was wavy, loved it. We shared a special salad with apples and cave aged cheddar which was delicious! Hubby ordered the sous vous Fillet and I ordered the lobster and shrimp risotto. We both loved our meals. They brought us out house made mint ice cream and to celebrate our anniversary at no charge and hubby said it was incredible! We really enjoyed our dinner here!Dietary restrictions: Hubby is gluten free and they had plenty of option called out on the menu.Parking: It was off season but we parked right in the lot behind the restaurant.
