The Glass Onion

The menu features local, seasonal specials but the standards like Deviled Eggs , Gumbo and the decadent Fries with Béarnaise are always great choices. [Eater 18 Member]

O.M.G. Catfish sandwich was heaven, the shrimp toast was so delicious, collard greens were smoky delicious, and the blue crab rice was just amazing! The ultimate g&t was the perfect drink too

Fresh food grown by local producers and a seasonally updated menu make The Glass Onion a true farm-to-table experience. Order the crispy chicken leg . Read more

The Brussel sprouts (pictured) are amazing and so was the shrimp & grits . Yum! Definitely going back. Also, on Monday’s, bottles of wine are half off.

Our party of four coworkers decided it was the best meal of our life. We live in Michigan. If e are able to choose out last meal it would be at the glass onion. OMG. Best. Meal. Ever.

Everything was fantastic. Shells and cheese . Fried quail with buttermilk and honey . Salmon and butter bean salad . Chocolate and pecan tart served with local ice cream ( wholly cow? ). Wow. Thanks!

All the classics are good, especially impressed with them splitting an entree for my wife and I into two separate plates without us even asking! Excellent service

Instead of the typical frying method, The Glass Onion's chicken is baked in a pan of hot oil . The confit technique leaves the chicken leg thoroughly cooked before being seared on both sides. Read more

Try the fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese app. It can be a full meal by itself!

Come and get the fried chicken ! They can do no wrong here...from drinks to dessert . Very simple on the outside- goodness on the inside

A local favorite for lunch in the West Ashley district. Get the shrimp and grits with fries and béarnaise .

Another Diners, Drive-ins and Dives restaurant off my list. Awesome food. I ate all of mine plus whatever the wife didn't finish. Salted Caramel pie and banana pudding is awesome!

The Glass Onion at 7 minutes drive to the east of Charleston Family Dentistry

Saturday brunch rocks! Fries with bearnaise and watermelon feta salad . (And of course a mimosa to finish it off!)

Try the Creamy Anson Mills Corn Grits - Having lived in the South my entire life, I've never tasted anything like this ever before. Highly recommend!

Everything is excellent. Fried catfish and fried green tomatoes are a must.

The smoked chicken with sweet potatoes and grits were a flavor explosion in my mouth. I definitely recommend it.

The catfish po-boy is delish! Also check out the shrimp and grits .

Shells & Cheese + Catfish ! Yum!!! Way too much, but can there ever be too much deliciousness?! Must do!

Great food - my husband said his mint julep was more of a whiskey sour though

The biscuits are like eating cloud bread . Oh, and the sweet potato hash is amazing!

Pork loin po boy was more of a trumped up ham sandwich . Tasty enough but not nearly as good as the fried quail - that's a definite winner.

Doing the pick 4 on the sides is more than enough of a meal for most people, but don't pass on a deviled egg or two beforehand!

Save room for peach cobbler a la mode and bread pudding with whiskey sauce ! Ps-1/2 price bottles of wine on Monday!

Try the Side Salad - Basic local greens and veggies . Love their incorporation of pickled okra and haricot vert .

Crispy chicken leg with mashed taters & braised collards . Mmm! Get the homemade pickles & make friends w/ Crystal sauce.

The pork chops , duck liver dirty rice with pickled peppers is delish!!

Cross your fingers that the Chicken Liver Po Boy is a special!

If you are a pimento cheese person, get it! Mmmm. So cheesy, toasty , and comfy on a cool rainy day.

Get the shells and cheese if it's available. You won't regret it.

Try the Caramel Pie - The crust was the best part, IMHO. The pie itself was the second best.

Fried Chicken dinner night, call ahead - it's amazing!

Try the Homemade Peppermint Ice Cream - Loved the bits of candy ! A bowl of heaven!

Catfish and cornbread is great

Try the Fried Green Tomatoes - The chèvre and pepper relish really added to this dish!

Great food. Great table cards.

Fried chicken dinner and $15 pitcher of Coast Brewing HopArt with free bernaise fries on Tuesdays.

You have to have reservations for Tuesday's fried chicken . We showed up at 715 and they were sold out'

The oyster gumbo is fantastic'

Try the Braised Greens - Amazing flavor! Simple, not bogged down with spices.

Best restaurant in Charleston - hands down! Get the quail !

The fried chicken sandwich !

Fried quail was ok as a curiosity item but to greasy to get it again. Cheesy grits on the other hand are addictive.

Bread pudding with whiskey sauce !

Biscuits and gravy are delicious. Go for it.

3 words: Fried chicken Tuesday!

Try the Pimiento Cheese - Hearty & delicate! Wonderful!

The fried quail and house made pickles are the best!

We've never been disappointed . . . except for they are always out of banana pudding which we hear is unbelievable!
