                        This was our first visit since ownership changed and we’re happy to find that the food and service remain excellent! It was a BUSY Wednesday night (so happy to see busy restaurants in WNC this summer!) and a few large parties were loud, but the space quieted as the evening progressed. The Parmesan crusted trout was absolutely fantastic and the penne pasta with shrimp was delicious. Service from our server and the rest of the staff and management was attentive and friendly. We look forward to our next visit!

                        This was the first visit to Glass Onion, celebrating my wife’s birthday. We had arancini, calamari, spilt a beet and pear salad, my wife had the gnocchi with duck sausage and I had the wild boar bolognese, then had crème brulé and a coffee torte. Service was good they’re small staffed so they tend to get busier later in the evening. It’s wise to have the full order planned out before ordering. They will course out your order accordingly, which is smart and doesn’t slow the kitchen down. If I had to make a recommendation it’d be the arancini. We will go back.

                        If you are in the neighborhood, do yourself a favor and have dinner there . If I am in Asheville or Weaverville on a day that the Glass Onion is open, I virtually always make plans to have dinner there. I believe it is my very favorite restaurant of all time. I live about 5 hours away, and I would be thrilled if the proprietors of the Glass Onion would open a restaurant in my hometown of Newnan, Georgia. They would be packed everyday that they were open. On this trip for dinner I had the house made gnocchi with duck sausage. It was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend it if it's on the menu again. Ordinarily, I would give the ambiance a 5 rating, but there was a VERY large party celebrating a birthday. As a result, you could barely hear yourself think, let alone hear one another, it in the restaurant when we arrived. Luckily, most of those guests left within 30 minutes. Service was absolutely excellent as always.

                        We went to the Glass Onion to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Our server Joy, was wonderful, making this a memorable experience. We enjoyed the perfect martini and delicious garlic rolls. The Rigatoni Bolognese was delicious, the salmon was cooked perfectly. The Arugula Prosciutto salad was yummy. The deserts-crème brûlée and ricotta cake were a perfect end to a perfect meal. Thank you.

                        Glass Onion recently changed ownership. I am very happy to report that the quality of food and service has remained excellent. It remains our go to restaurant for a quality dining experience.

                        The food at Glass Onion is consistently good; everything we’ve ever had has been delicious. The tables are a bit close together so private conversation could be an issue. Our server was competent but not overly friendly. All in all, a good experience and I would recommend it.

                        Glass Onion is a great local restaurant. It is small and noisy but comfortable and welcoming. Wait staff is super friendly and attentive. We had the cavatappi with shrimp and it was somewhat disappointing. The dish was quite watery/oily and not very flavorful. Our tiramisu was fine but there was too much whipped cream. The Arancini and garlic rolls were terrific!!
