Flavor was on point but they couldn’t get anything right. I ordered the pepper steak- medium rare it came out purple and cold in the middle. I sent it back for them to fix and it came back medium. It was still delicious so I ate it. Then the crème brûlée didn’t have the hard burnt sugar on top, it was grains of sugar they attempted to crust. I sent it back and came back with too thick of a top and warm crème. At least it had a hard shell and wasn’t grainy.The flavors were there but the execution was not. It’s too bad because if they cooked it right the first or even second time I would give five stars. I think they need to train the young chefs a little better. Once they do that they will get 5 stars from me.The waitress was so nice and understanding. I hated complaining or sending it back but with the price of everything I wasn’t about to pay for under cooked and under executed food.

Jon is the best server. We plan our weekly office meeting (Thursday) to make sure we are at the Onion for Jon's excellent service. Always a big smile, great attitude and has our orders memorized. The food is always excellent. If you are at the Onion, highly recommend asking to be seated in the bar in Jon's section.

The craft beer selection was outstanding. The onion soup was outstanding. The french fries that came with my burger were outstanding. The burger itself was meh. I got the state of the onion burger (no bun), which had great grilled onions and super melty cheese on it, but the burger itself was so overcooked It was hard to enjoy. I HATE having to send stuff back, so I just ate it.

The food was mediocre. We were with a large group, which makes it harder for the staff, but it shouldn't be that difficult to make a decent salad (under dressed Caesar with extremely dry chicken).

Service was a bit slow for lunch time. However the server was apologetic and the food was decent. Good atmosphere and lots of alcoholic beverages on tap

I loved this place. They had a phenomenal selection of brews, and the food was incredible. I ate the french onion soup, and the onion rings. I swear, I've never had better onion rings in my life. It's not even close.

We came with a large group, but made reservations ahead of time. It was an hour before our food arrived after ordering. The food did not come out together and some people were not served at all and just cancelled their order. I had the spicy chicken fettuccine, but it had overpowering cayenne and no real depth of flavor. Just disappointing after an hour and a half of sitting in this restaurant. Others were disappointed in their meals as well. I would look elsewhere.

We were in the area and wanted to drop by again. Our waitress Mikayla was exceptional. The bacon wrapped onion ring appetizer was absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, our burgerslacked what I would call the "wow factor". Don't get me wrong, it was very good, but the burger patty was missing the seasoning and seemed a little bland. All said, I'll still go back when the opportunity affords itself.
