Braised Onion Restaurant

We went here today for lunch. It was fantastic! We started with the onion fritters for an appetizer. They were very flavorful & crispy! The dipping sauces were also very good. I had the grouper fish & chips. The fish was very fresh & moist. My spouse had the shrimp & grits. I'm not a big fan of grits, but i have to say that i tried some & this dish was amazing!! We finished the meal with coconut cream pie & coffee. The coffee was fresh brewed & had a nice flavor. The coconut cream pie was magnificent! I highly recommend any & all of these dishes. Give yourself a nice treat & stop in here for a meal. You won't regret it!

What a gem. Worth the visit. We got the onion fritter app and it was perfection. Served hot and both sauces were a delight. Crispy on the outside with a wonderful blend of shredded onions on the inside. I chose the shrimp and grits for my entree and it was awesome. Huge shrimp with mashed grits enveloped in a wonderful sauce. Went for it with dessert as we saw they have an in-house pastry chef. Chose the coconut pie and it was out of of this world. Lots of care to make this pie. Home made crust, real coconut and a great filling. Wonderful flavor. Fantastic service. They even brewed me a cup of decaf coffee. We will be back because of the care of the food, the service and it is a local establishment. Please give this place a try.

I love this place. Great food, great service , upscale but unpretentious atmosphere. I love family run businesses. Especially when its done so well. Keep up the great work. I only regret not taking pictures to share with Y'all. Give em a try. They do get busy so a reservation is always a good idea

We had lunch today 4 adults and 3 little children for the very first time & I was a little nervous because #1 I am a chef at home and cook divine, clean organic food and #2 some reviews were negative but I prayed and I have 0 complaints! From the moment we walked in we were warmly greeted and made eye contact and we’re seated right away which made me feel very welcome. Everyone had something different to eat and it was all exceptional! Fresh, beautiful presentation, tasty, perfectly cooked (wow especially the shrimp!) & you can tell the chef took time to make everything spectacular and it really was! Deserts absolutely amazing! We had a fantastic time and the atmosphere was warm and inviting! We will definitely soon return! The reason for the 4 stars is this: I asked for a desert that I saw online and waiter said he would check with the party chef guaranteeing me that she would be able to make it then he said she was on break then he brought the check but never asked me if I wanted something else or apologize for not having it made for me, disappointing. Also no quiche, no lobster and seafood also disappointing.

The food and experience was phenomenal! We came for my friend’s bachelorette event and they did not disappoint! The server Camden was incredibly engaging and recommended a lot of amazing choices and the complimentary bread was a nice touch! Will definitely be back whenever I am in Ocala in the future
