Wild Onion Restaurant

We live nearby, and finally tried The Wild Onion. We were amazed at the fresh Southern homemade food, with endless sides!

We all enjoyed our food, it was like eating my late grandmother’s cooking, absolutely delicious.

We will be back weekly! So glad to have decided to finally try it! Highly recommend!

I would have to label this one as a "Hidden Little Jewel". Country-style cooking with different menu options daily. Order a main menu item and then side dishes are brought out until you've had enough. Topped off with different desert options every day. Extremely nice staff!!
Photos of little sad face because my plate took longer to finish and a "tiny" desert as a joke from staff. Kept us laughing!!!

Waitress was Parker, she was great. This place is amazing. Everything is wonderful. Cabbage was sweet but not too sweet, slaw was perfect. country fried steak crispy, gravy wonderful. chicken & dumplings were great (they put a bit of pepper in it so may not be perfect for kids), beef tips, pot roast... I had about everything. I actually came back the next day because it was so good - they told me the main cook was out of town so... wow, if that was the backup... I'm definitely going back. deserts are amazing as well. Can't say enough good things, I will be going back for sure. They said they may start opening more often and I asked them not to do that... just leave it the way it is! Don't change anything!

My wife and I visited The Wild Onion on Saturday evening. We were there when they opened at 5 PM. There were several people already waiting for them to open.

I admit that I have been by this place many times and hadn't paid much attention to it because it never seemed to be open when I was there. It turns out the are only open a few days each week and open at 5 PM.

The restaurant is a quaint little place with a lot of character. The first thing I noticed was how clean it was. Then, I could smell the good food that was cooking. This is a family style restaurant. If you're not familiar with that, it means that they serve the sides in bowls for the entire table with unlimited refills. Their menu changes depending on what fresh food they have available. All of the sides come with every entree. If you order a vegetable plate, all the sides are included.

I had a steak. It was very good. My wife had the vegetable plate which included squash, black-eyed peas, cucumbers, and hush puppies (they call them something else that I can't remember now). We finished the meal off with dessert, which is also included with each meal. Everything (includind the desserts) are homemade and delicious.

The service was outstanding as well. I think we have a new place that will be added to our favorites.
