Braised Onion

July 9, 2025 - Two for late lunch. We were travelling many miles and need a break and to relax. Came off the highway after about 40 minutes of web, Yelp, Google, Open Table etc searching in the car. Spoiler Alert: WORTH the diversion and as others say an unexpected diamond in the rough. Top of the list ----- SERVICE was exceptional by Allison!!!!! The zone defense kitchen and bus folks were pleasant and nice!!!! We also pleasantly and quickly seated and the host/hostess kindly said goodbye and asked about our experience. This was dining like in the 60s and 70s!!!!! My wife got the French Onion Soup $11 that was actually vegetarian made with a mushroom base.... she loved it!!! Found out the chef or owner is a vegan??? I was disappointed no vegan or vegetarian options on the menu listed??? 9/10 She got the Hawaiian Salad $15 and added 4 Shrimp $14. The salad was fantastic and varied and fresh - REALLY awesome. 10/10 She said the shrimp were good, but at $3.50 a piece - that's crazy. 2/10 for price. I went with the Large Farm Salad which might sound boring and plain - it was anything but!!! A picture here somewhere. Cucumbers, onions, carrots, spinach and mixed greens, tomatoes and a lovely dressing on the side that was tasty and light. 10/10 my only quip is I would have LOVED to had a bean (garbanzo, black, kidney, anything) option to add. I tipped more generously than usual as the service and people here were exceptional. A great dining experience.

I haven't been here for many, many years. It did not disappoint! The service, food, and atmosphere were amazing. The customer service was on point! I will be back again, much sooner.

Very nice local place with a true chef-run scratch kitchen. The menu was broad but not deep (the way chain restaurants can be), but what was served to my Dad and I on Father's Day was very tastey!! I suggest the Ceasar wedge and shrimp & cheese grits (see pics).

Very disappointing! It looks like a nice, upscale restaurant, but the food is anything but upscale. The vaca frita was dry and without much tase. The tostones were burnt! They brought out a replacement and they were also burnt. The country fried steak was about 2-3 oz of flattened steak covered in 8oz of bread and brown gravy. The bread was awesome. I don’t recommend this overpriced restaurant that is in need of a chef and management that knows what food is supposed look and taste like. Don’t waste your time or money here!!!

The restaurant seemed to be a bit understaffed as the servers were sharing tables and we had to ask for refills/ for them to clear plates off the table multiple times. That being said the food left us full, happy, and wanting more! I recommend ordering the short rib stroganoff, crab cakes, grouper po’ boy, onion fritters and fried green tomatoes. The lemon blueberry ice cream and bread pudding were absolutely delicious desserts! The prices were a little high in my opinion.

The place should be called the Burnt Onion. Very disappointed. Will cross this place off the list. The vaca frita was dry. The tostones were the most pitiful pieces of burnt plantain I had ever seen. The cook says they’re not burnt. Look at the pictures and tell me they’re not burnt. For such an expensive place, it was not up to par. The country fried steak was tiny compared to the loaf of bread in was breaded in. Will definitely not be back.

Erik was our waiter & did a great job. The braised short rib stroganoff was delicious & my delmanico steak was absolutely amazing.

Had a 16 party Christmas dinner & everyone rated it mediocre. So we tried again. I would only consider this a "fine" dining for middle & high school kids. They advertise "jumbo tiger shrimp". No, they are barely jumbo shrimp (shown in pic). The food tastes like Cisco had a sale. Cold vegetables, 'jasmine rice' was in "block form" straight out of the bag & sticky. It was not Jasmine rice- unless Temu sent it. Don't waste your money, any decent commercial spot would have provided better quality.

This place is a jewel; a must stop and try in Ocala! The ambiance gives off late 1990's bistros. The service was impeccable! Ask for Alyson, she was amazing! She gave great recommendations and described the dishes in delicious detail! My wife ordered the lobster Mac and cheese. With a hint of truffle oil. The truffle oil was a finishing note on the palate, not the star! The star was the lobster!!!! Wow amazing! I had the Delmonico steaks. The char flavor was exquisite! We are definitely coming back here for future meals!

Everything we had was 10/10! Gator bites! Bread and butter! Drinks! Dessert! They're known for their stroganoff and it was very delicious but pro tip: substitute the pasta with mashed potatoes.... new fav place even if I have to drive 45 mins!

Above and beyond service with exceptional quality food. Enjoyed the Shrimp and Gritts along with a salmon salad. Delicious. Restaurant is nice and themed around onions. Very modern inside with a cute atmosphere

Revisit this spot on our way back from Gainesville. Order some chicken parmigiana, coconut shrimp, and lobster bisque. The food is just amazing.

We had one our most memorable dining experiences last night at this family run establishment. We had the Beef Wellington wonton appetizer and it was a home run. We were a party of four and for entree's we had liver & onions, meatloaf, Beef Stroganoff and a swordfish special...everything was delicious. We tried a trio of the in house freshly made ice cream...the star was the lemon blueberry but all were great! Nice wine list and they certainly know how to mix a cocktail too! Our server was Matthew and here's amazing! We will be back for sure the next trip we make to Ocala!

This restaurant was such an unexpected surprise! The food was excellent- gourmet level entrees. We had the Pecan crusted Ora King Salmon - it melts in your mouth. The fried chicken is next level! So moist with an amazingly tasty crispy crunch. The short rib stroganoff was better than grandma's! Oh and the French onion soup and the creamy crab soup were both to die for. We didn't have reservations so had to sit at a high top In the bar area, which was fine with us. Our server was friendly and attentive. The We don't come this way often but we will definitely be back. A+++

We have been there several times. While the foo!d was good, I find it a little expensive. I do highly recommend it. They have a good Thanksgiving menu. We like the decor. The mixed drinks were good as well.

Wonderful family run restaurant. It is exactly what they say.... Southern comfort with a flair. We love to go here for a late lunch/ early dinner and get a table full of appetizers. The fried green tomatoes are way better than the other southern restaurant downtown and are topped with a lovely crab salad. My favorite is the pow pow shrimp and also the crispy onion fritters. Both are crispy but not greasy and have a yummy dipping sauce. I also recommend the beef Wellington wraps, coconut shrimp, and crab cakes. They often have a lunch special of prime rib with sautéed onions and cheese on ciabatta bread. If they have it that day I always get it as it is full of flavor with the perfect amount of salt. For dessert I recommend one of their flight trios. They have homemade ice cream and delicious bread pudding which if I have room for I get but often have to skip it as I love all of their food. We make this spot one of our routine places.

Great food, really nice service in an open atmosphere. The ribeye was spectacular. Great reviews for the fried green tomatoes, liver and onions and prime rib at our table! But the ribeye was mine and it was terrific

Braised Onion is a cute, comfortable bistro type of restaurant with colorful onion paintings and art glass on the walls. Let's start with what we came here for...the food. The food was 5 stars. They are true to their mission of comfort food with a twist, or elevated in most cases. I had the soup of the day which was an onion, gouda cream based soup that was delicious! I had the seared grouper which came with roasted potatoes and green beans with pancetta. The group was seasoned nicely but I added some of the remoulade flavored butter from the rolls (garlic rolls...mmmm) and melted it over the grouper and I thought that was a win! The green beans didn't have much flavor and couldn't tell if they had been sautéed in the pancetta, but they were good fresh green beans which I love. The potato's were nice and crispy and salted, and really good. My husband had the short rib stroganoff which he said was really tasty. I forgot to taste it but it had a reddish sauce that gave it the twist on traditional stroganoff. We finished with a crème brûlée which was traditional and done perfectly. There were lots of flecks of real vanilla bean and the top was crunchy and ate like the best of the best. There was a raspberry coulis on the plate as well as fresh whipped cream and fresh berries if you wanted to add it to your bite. Epic! Service was friendly but maybe could have a little training in fine dining. Just a little refinement. Overall great food, cute restaurant and friendly service. I would dine there again.

The location is very convenient, food is very good and the ambiance is great. Service is always great.

I dined here for lunch with a friend. I ordered the Eggplant Rollatini. It came out burnt. For the first time in my life, I asked to send it back. The second one came back just as burnt. The green beans on the side were more than al dente, but were mostly raw. I would return for other entrees such as the liver and onions, but I would say that things in this restuarant have suffered since the passing of the owner.

Being from the San Francisco Bay Area. We have very high expectations for food and this place exceeded our expectations. We had the French onion soup, Lobster bisque and the lobster Mac n cheese. It was delicious. The service was great as well.

A long overdue visit to The Braised Onion - we've talked about making a stop here for years and we finally did it! The atmosphere is perfect for date night. We risked it without a reservation and happily were seated right away around 6:30 pm. Rachel, our server, got us started with our drink order, some tasty bread and our appetizer order: an onion soup for my squeeze and the coconut shrimp for me. The shrimp came out first and was delicious! The pow pow sauce was a perfect blend of spicy and sweet. I wasn't as excited about the mango salsa, but it was fine. The soup, which came out super hot (and that's okay) was very good. Filet mignon, roasted asparagus and Mac/cheese. Ribeye, roasted asparagus and mashed potatoes. Oh. My. Word! Absolutely amazing food. Perfectly prepared, perfectly seasoned. The filet truly melted in your mouth. Even the bread served before dinner was perfect. A couple of the asparagus ends were far too tough, but so very tasty! The only negative - and this was a first for us - the steak knives were the absolutely dullest we have ever used at a restaurant. Not so bad as to impact the experience, but very surprising. Update: Second Visit Celebrating our 16th anniversary, we circled back to The Braised Onion for our second visit. Our reservations were a little early on a Sunday evening but the place was packed! My lovely bride had a braised onion soup for an appetizer and I had the shrimp cocktail. Both portions were enormous and so tasty! Oh my goodness! That Strip Steak was absolutely PERFECT! Melt-in-your-mouth perfect. The green beans were prepared just the way I like them - not too crisp, not too mushy. The filet was excellent and the asparagus was very flavorful. We finished off dinner with a (shared) triple layered cheesecake. So very rich! Another awesome dining experience!

Great onion soup! Attentive and friendly staff! Nice menu! Quiet in late afternoon! Best time to visit !!!

Sat at the bar solo. Ordered a filet and an onion soup. The onion soup was really tasty - I'm obnoxiously obsessed with onion soup and have decently high expectations. The broth, onion, and cheese were all perfect but I wish the crouton was a little bit thinner (as I'm not so much). The filet was disappointment. It came with asparagus and mash potatoes and there really wasn't a seasoning on anything. All very bland and boring. And this comes from someone who doesn't add salt or pepper to anything (and my hubs DEFINITELY does). It also wasn't melt in your mouth. Quite chewy and tough. Bartender was nice and quick. He was running around with tables too and I didn't feel neglected at all. I would come back for the soup and try something else for dinner.

Fabulous food, we were in town for an event and liked it so much we went back the next night! Excellent service.

Love crossing town to enjoy their great food. Wish they added more the the dinner for the price. But over all a great place. Chicken and risotto $24. Sale should easily be free with this.

We just went for the first time! Amazing food, awesome service, great atmosphere ! We will Definitely be going back!

Just NOPE. We went on Valentines Day for our anniversary. Admittedly, I don't know much about the restaurant business since I only worked in the industry for 31 years. But all joking aside, I do know better than to go out on holidays. (Hallmark or Real). Food just wasn't good at all. Both quality and cooking left much to be desired. Lots of missteps and basics missing. Service was robotic and insincere. Clearly rehearsed and regurgitated. Highly disappointed overall. Too bad since I had expectations of a better experience.

I ate here with my husband, son, and my husband's aunt and uncle. The ambiance at the Braised Onion is really nice. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Our server was nice but young and not very attentive. They give you fresh, hot garlic rolls with whipped butter. We got the shrimp and grits appetizer, which was perfectly cooked and flavorful. We split lobster bisque, truffle macaroni, chips, green beans, and grouper. The lobster bisque was good, but definitely not the best I've ever had. The truffle macaroni was perfect. The chips were crispy and delicious. The green beans were slightly undercooked but tasty. The grouper was delicious, but it was a really small portion of almost $40. Dessert was the show stopper! We got the chocolate mousse, which was light, smooth, and perfectly chocolaty! I would definitely order it again. Rating from F to A +++ I give it a B+.

Very enjoyable! This is a quaint affordable place to enjoy, where the food is dependable and the wait staff are incredible. If there is any negative at all it is that I do not enjoy it more.

First time in and it was really good. Excellent service from Rachel and the menu was diverse. We ordered the liver and onions and the blackened grouper. When was the last time you saw those two on the same menu?? Anyway both were good and worth the trip. Desert pictured here was very good. Not too sweet and light. We'll be back next trip.

Not all that and loud inside. I've had better for less money. Don't see myself going back. The only thing good about that night was our server. The food was just ok.

My wife and I really enjoy Braised Onion. I have to knock off one star just due to cost as some of the menu items seem a bit high $$ IMO. Outside of cost, service is great, ambiance is chill, and the food is really good. They're always busy so the word is definitely out about this place!

they have to most amazing macaroni and lobster dish. The service was fabulous and the atmosphere was quaint. We went for our anniversary and we thoroughly enjoyed the experiences.

Fun place! The gal at the desk gave us a bit of a hard time saying we were too early but I showed her our confirmation and we were taken care of. Excellent food. Well prepared and big portions. Too big. Am a lobster snob from the northeast and had both bisque and lobster Mac and cheese. Great flavors. Bisque didn't seem to have much meat in it tho. Onion fritters were great too. Husband enjoyed liver and onions. Biggest hit was coconut cream pie. Cute decor but felt a little like function rooms were we were. Server was delightful and fun. Will be back!

Friday evening I order and the lady that I spoke with told me that they closed at nine. I told her I would be there by then I picked up my order pay for it and came home much to my dismay. soup their pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes and green beans when I got home, everything was in there but the pork tenderloin with missing I picked it up right at nine, so I knew they were already closed the next morning. I called just to let them know and I got a recording telling me to leave my name and number and they get back with me. four or 5 o'clock that evening I still have not heard from them so I called back again and the young lady that I spoke with if she could help I explained what happened, after that she became very rude... I called it a pork chop instead of a tenderloin and she said sir we do not have pork chop. And I told her on the menu I think it's called a tenderloin, OK we do have that. And what do you want us to do about That? I said nothing really... I'll have the manager call you that's been three days ago and I have yet to hear from anyone. The lady on the phone acted like she thought that I was making it up .. very short and rude..I just thought they might want to you pay 40 or $50 for your dinner and when you get home the main portion of it is missing, that they might have a problem..,

My family came to eat dinner here with my 3 and 6 year old. After 10 minutes of being there, the server Andrew told me that my 3 year old was being too loud and people were complaining. I was in shock as he wasn't being too loud and I asked who had complained. He said the manager. When i asked for the manager's name , he got nervous and said it was a "management policy". Basically Andrew doesn't like children and he ruined our whole dining experience. I won't be going back to this restaurant.

I was told this place was a hidden gem and damn if that is an understatement! Atmosphere is very comfortable and relaxing. I started with a nice martini and wife had Aperol spritz. Both were very well prepared. French onion soup was amazing. Lobster bisque was very tasty as well. Entrees were meatloaf and fish and chips. All I can say is wow! 2 traditional dishes prepared to perfection. All with a nice bottle of Chianti. What a great All around experience at a reasonable price.

Tonight we had a party of eight shortly around 4 PM. At that time, there was maybe two other tables being served. We were greeted at the front door by the host very pleasantly with a very nice smile. I really enjoyed the decor, music and overall ambiance within your restaurant. Our server Joanne E. asked what we were drinking and instantly it appeared she wanted us to hurry up all at once. Once she took our drink orders she literally tossed everyone's straws for their drinks around the table, while standing beside me as if she were throwing darts. She didn't appear as if she wanted a party of this size. Possibly, she felt she would be rushed, perhaps? From our standpoint, we were in no hurry to order and so maybe perhaps from her perspective that may been her view, but not ours. She was in a rush to take everyone's orders without making any recommendations or answering questions regarding the food menu. Also, she didn't particularly give us an opportunity to look at the wine menu and took it off the table. My wife did tell her she would like to see it once her food arrived, but she ignored it and took the menu away. Once our food arrived, which didn't take very long at all, so kudos to the chef and kitchen staff Everything at that point was pretty good. I personally can't say I enjoyed my Meal, which was the fish and chips. It was very bland with no seasoning except for the ketchup that I used. She did come back to ask us if we wanted refills on our drinks. Once we finished our meal, she brought two Dessert menus, handing one to one at the table And then literally tossed The other one in the middle of the table Similar to tossing the straws. A couple people in our party as well as myself have restaurant Hospitality experience and by far, we did not really appreciate her serving techniques. Perhaps more training? At this point I'm sorry but several of us agreed as well as myself that we will not dine here Again, nor recommend anyone to dine here as well. I wish this would have been a more positive and favorable review. Allen B

Wow where do I begin?!?!.... ! We came here to celebrate Father's Day 2024. This place is just outstanding in service (thank you dear Joanne) and the food was just the most perfect comfort delicious food any foodie can ask for. We tried their famous onion soup; and let me tell you it was the best one I've ever had! The onion fritters were perfection... The lobster rissoto.... Oh my!!! Perfect temperature... the delicious warm butter to dip the lobster was soothing to my soul. I almost forgot to mention the amazing drinks we had! The margarita was perfect! If you want the best classic drink; you must try their Old Fashion. If you're looking for a great time and delicious "comfort" food you must check it out! Thank me later.

Our family of 12 people went to Braised Onion today for lunch and to celebrate a birthday and pre-holiday get together. We had confirmed our reservation through OpenTable and arrived 15 minutes early. The Hostess at the front desk could have been a little more cooperative. She was asked twice if we could set up some table place cards and presents but she refused until after she set up a few other tables and then ours with menus. Once the menus were in place, she let us go back to set up. The Waiter, Matthew, did a great job. Very good attitude and accommodating. Freshly baked rolls were hot and delicious. Appetizers & Desserts - great flavor profiles, nicely done. We all enjoyed them and the plates were empty! My entree was a Cobb salad which was delicious and filled to the brim with goodies! Great ambiance and nice private room! OpenTable App: When I went to OpenTable to do a review, our reservation was deleted on the app.

The bar seems to have the best ambience and serves full menu. They treat us like family. It's fantastic. Food is always great and they are pouring our favorite drinks as we walk in the door. Warm, welcoming, wonderful!!

The food was truly excellent. My mother in law and I each had the French onion soup for an appetizer. It was the perfect blend of mozzarella cheese and the soup. Not too much mozzarella nor too little. Main dish for me was beef stroganoff with short ribs for the beef. Excellent. - Only ate about 1/2 and took the rest. Was full from the soup and the bread (warm) that came before the meal. The waitress was super. Attentive to the whole family. 7 of us in total. Ambiance was perfect for a mid afternoon dinner. Low lighting with nice comfortable furniture and solid silverware. I'd definitely return.

The Braised Onion is a welcome addition to the culinary landscape of Ocala, Florida. Back in the day when I first moved to Florida, Ocala was a quiet place and while I found dome decent Mexican food on my trips to or through Ocala, there wasn't much else that the culinary scene in Ocala had to offer (at least as far as I had found). Ocala has certainly grown from when we would call it "Slocala" and on my last trip to Ocala, I was surprised at how much it has grown. With this growth, there has also been a growth in the restaurant options here in Ocala and the Braised Onion is a great option if you are looking for a great all-around experience. The Braised Onion has a warm ambiance that definitely enhanced the experience. The staff were professional and friendly and the food was an elevated version of comfort food. The Braised Onion is a great option and a perfect example of how Ocala is growing as a community.

We went with a party of 10. Service was on point. Great food and great ambiance. Definitely try the braised onion soup! It was delicious and we will be returning.

Second visit. Service was good overall. Food was average. Meatloaf was dry. Added shrimp to my salad..$14 for approx. 5 shrimp served in small bowl instead of on top of salad. Bread pudding served cold instead of warmed.Cod was dry. Few things not available. Disappointing considering the prices.

We had a wonderful family dinner at Braised Onion. All of the food was delicious, service was wonderful and prompt. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend the onion fritters, stroganoff and lobster risotto! You could taste the homemade aspect!

This place is always stellar! The Short Ribs were perfect. Wife had the Chicken Parm and said the same. Service is always on point.

Service was not good at lunch. Very slow. Waitress did not check on us after serving and had to request bill. We did not eat our meal due tasteless shrimp and grits.

I had V wait on my best friend and I today. I have to tell you how refreshing it was to talk to a young person who LOVES what he does! Our meal was delicious and our drinks were absolutely AMAZING! We will definitely come back! I attended a business after hours there this week that was perfect, so I thought I would being my best friend here for lunch today. Keep doing what you do. Being a former restaurant owner, you strive to have wait staff like this. Thank you for an amazing experience.

This place is a little hidden gem. The food is freshly made and the service is wonderful. My only complaint is it does take a little while but it's expected if your food is being prepared fresh. Totally recommend this place.

Went there before Covid with my wife with a group of people and the food was OK. It needed more spice and flavor but somehow they keep the place packed was in a group. My wife and I have different tastes. and if we both say the food is off then usually it sucks. Service was good and the drinks were good but the bland food was just not worth it.

So hubs has been wanting to try this place even before we moved to Ocala. We do a lot of digging regarding new places we visit and had good vibes about this place. We made reservations for our initial visit due to the website implying the preference. They close at 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays but for whatever reason, the latest reservation you can make is 8pm. When we finally made it here, we tried several items on our first visit. I had the lobster bisque and my husband had the French onion soup. Both were very good. I had an entree off the specials menu, which was stuffed lobster with crabmeat and lemon pasta. The stuffed lobster was good but the pasta was overloaded with lemon. My husband ordered the short rib stroganoff, which he loved. I wish there were a couple of pasta offerings on the menu. I feel like this place would make an excellent Alfredo or Vodka sauce! We visited a couple other times to sit in the bar area. I was not hungry some visits so I had the garden salad with bleu cheese. It was good but it was not screaming boldness. I am hoping to try the wagyu one of these days. The last visit, I was going to get the wagyu but opted for the filet and lobster tail. I was then informed they were out of lobster tails and offered shrimp. Nope, not the same so I declined. I ordered my filet medium with a bleu cheese crust. When my filet arrived, there was no bleu cheese. I sent it back and when it did return, there was barely any on. I cut into the filet and it is very rare in most spots. I did not send it back because it was close to closing time and I didn't want to be that person. I let our bartender/server know after but not in a complaining kind of way. I was just not impressed with the steak. The mashed potatoes were very bland but the grilled asparagus was delicious. There was a time we attempted to order a bottle of wine and they were out of stock so only twice there were those letdowns. A big issue I had was, we sat at a table our first visit and there was a kid spraying tables next to us to clean while we were eating. Not cool. The bartender Allison and the server Tony were the staff we liked the best. I also wish there was a happy hour because we would be visiting more. Oh and if you sign up for their VIP club, it just entails texts and emails reminding you to dine there. No coupons, events, or unique dinner specials.

After reading the many rave reviews about this particular restaurant, I decided to try it out. I must say, I was not impressed. I would not call it a fine dining house. The food was very ordinary and very expensive. My friend had the chicken marsala which was served "with the bones in". This was an unusual take on the dish. I had the liver and onions, it was OK. I ordered a side that did not appear as ordered but rather the original side which came with the dish as per menu. It had to be brought out later. The main dish was luke-warm. The service was fine. I will not go back.

We met some family members here coming from Tampa. I had the short rib stroganoff which was full of meat and mushrooms so I took some home. The lobster mac was a hit with others with huge hunks of succulent lobster. Great place to spend a evening with family and friends.

Date night out. Our usual place was packed. I called the Braised Onion to see if they offered call ahead seat and Mike told us to come on over. Shortly after arrival we are seated. Our waiter is welcoming, attentive and suggests specials and describes the food in mouth watering detail. The rolls and butter are just delicious. We could have had more but didn't want to spoil dinner. The portions are huge and the food tasty. My husband loved the meatloaf. I got the shrimp and grits and they were so flavorful with huge butterflied shrimp and silky smooth grits. We will be back!
