We love this place! Definitely a favorite. I usually get the chicken wings and waffles, but everything is great. Try the garlic cheese curds! Yum!

A bit of nostalgia from a PV icon. Both burger and fries were awesome!

I got a large chili cheese fries. I was totally unaware that it was so much. I got a small shake with it and it cost me $29.40 without tip. The fries were mushy and the chili cheese was pretty much tasteless. I would highly recommend to stay away from it. The shake was good but I ordered blueberry and got vanilla.Should have got a burger like I wanted to do in the first place. Not sure that would be good either.

Great place for a burger and fries. Much better than fast food. Can get crowded, since limited seating.

I grew up in Omaha. I have a point. That is where the Ruben Sandwich was born. I moved away over 40 years ago and I have had mixed results finding a good Ruben Sandwich until I ordered one at the Red Onion. It was perfect. We will be going here more and more. Great food and friendly service.

Although the food is great it is a disappointment of how service has declined at this restaurant. I don’t live around the area and coming out to Red Onion was considered a treat. I tried to introduce this spot to a friend in efforts to continue to support the local businesses but service was entirely awful. The closing staff on January 11, 2023, specifically the young lady waitress, was not happy to serve our table. She was absolutely unapologetically rude. We walked in and sat ourselves at a table. We grabbed the menus to order quickly as it was around 9:15PM, understanding they close at 10PM. The waitress came to our table speaking aloud her concerns about where we got the menus. One of us apologized and thought it was the end of her bad day. She then got a drink menu and tossed it on the table. When she came back to the table, she crossed her arms and asked with attitude what we would like to drink. One of us ordered a drink and contemplated for a moment whether to stay or leave. Ultimately, we left before ordering anything further. We did not want our night ruined by the type of service they are approving to provide us.

If the staff is not happy to be serving anyone around 9PM, please consider closing the restaurant earlier than to deter any business from returning customers.

Service is less than one star. Customers are better off ordering to-go if you still want to support this business.
