This place was a truly hidden gem. They celebrated their 30th anniversary last year. My husband and I went in for lunch, and we were blown away. The quality and presentation of the food was immaculate. Our server, who worked in trucking prior to Covid and was a former regular, was probably one of the best servers I've had anywhere. And that is saying a lot, as this is my industry and I also travel often. The bar is high; she exceeded it. Phenomenal.
Also, throughout many dining experiences, I have never had someone another round of water or tea to go, that was the extra mile. And their French onion soup lives up to the hype, I judge many restaurants on their French onion soup, (that's actually why my husband picked this place), it's gorgeous. So go eat at the Red Onion if you're in the area, it's beyond worth it.

Great little hidden gem in Joplin. Italian food made the Italian way. Unique dishes compared to other similar restaurants in Joplin. Appetizers and dips are top notch. Try the creamy dill dip.

Its a very unique atmosphere, very open everything is visible. Service is good, waitress was friendly. Ordered the tilapia with dinner salad vinaigrette was really good. Smash burger with chicken dip on it. Both entrees were delicious. Reason for 4 star is temperature. Very cold un pleasant.

We were in town visiting our daughter. We had dinner at the Red Onion Restaurant. The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere. Our server, Jeremy, was excellent. I had DAVID'S Fried Chicken Salad it was delicious! My husband had the Love Me Tender Sandwich. He said it was very good. I would recommend this restaurant to others. We will be back!

First time here, and admittedly I came entirely for the Italian Cream Cake...which they no longer have apparently. Otherwise, good food, good service and appropriate pricing for the quality and quantity you receive. Very bummed about the cake but would certainly still eat here again.

Wonderful all the way around. Good atmosphere? Check. Wonderful host ? Yes Splendid server? Sincerely? Fantastic food? No? No? Why? Because it was fabulous. I had the steak tips, rare and boy were they delicious. We'll be back again, and again, and again.
Jeremy is a wonderful man made our experience snazzy

This restaurant is probably the best in town. Good food, reasonable prices, and outstanding service. The Arkansas Smokehouse Pasta is so unique and flavorful I wish I could recreate it at home. Can't wait to come back soon!

Phenomenal service and food; our 3 course meal was staged properly, which made for a most memorable meal. Our highest recommendation for either lunch or dinner. Beautiful building inside & out as well. 10+ / 10. Thank you all.

I wish I could’ve gotten a picture of their Christmas stuff, it was so nice! The vibe of this place is great! They have smooth music in the background and is PERFECT for a fancier date night for couples! Staff are beyond friendly and are quick to willing to serve you! I have been here before and loved their soup, and STILL love it just as much, if not more! I also never realized how good their chicken was here, it was cooked to perfection with great seasonings. Overall I wouldn’t come here too often due to the price, but would highly recommend for the occasional visit!
