Excellent meal! We will be back again. The Ontario Chicken was so moist and the Salmon was too. Also the ambiance and staff were awesome! Try it

I’m giving three stars for the food and an extra star for the friendly service and staff. I ordered the parmesan crusted salmon on nicoise salad for dinner, but my salmon arrived without any sort of parmesan crust. It just had pepper on it, and not fresh ground, rather that pre-ground flavourless stuff. Other than that, it was pretty good. It was definitely very satisfying and was good value. I could have just eaten half of it, and brought half home for leftovers, it was that filling. My boyfriend had the bison burger, which he said was dry and not very seasoned. I had a bite and it was quite plain, just tasted meaty in a generic way. Granted, my boyfriend doesn’t like a lot of toppings, so it’s really important that the meat is juicy and well-seasoned. Other people who put on more toppings might not find the burger dry. For dessert we had sticky toffee pudding. It was a bit drier and denser than in other local restaurants, but the flavour was really excellent. A bit more of the excellent sauce or some ice cream would have helped counteract the density. On the whole, the food was decent, and the serving sizes were definitely substantial for the price. The staff were super friendly and made the whole experience very enjoyable.

Enjoying Canada Say with the family, we decided to try this place for lunch. We felt welcoming right from the beginning. With such a beautiful day, we decided to sit on the patio. Had the Canada Day special(beer and a Niger) for under 10 bucks, and my son had the grilled cheese sandwich. My wife had the salad with a side of calamari. Good service along with tasty food makes this a place to check out. Would come back to check out other items the menu has to offer.

I experienced fantastic service when I visited this restaurant with a friend recently. The server offered a taste of any wine I wanted to try and provided suggestions to pair with the meal. The food is exactly as described in the menu. Eating at the Sweet Onion Grill is like eating a home cooked meal — nothing too extravagant but as delicious as ever.

My friend and I came in on a Wednesday night for dinner. The first thing we noticed was the ambience — warm, cozy, and dim lighting with candles. We sat down next to the windows and across from the bar for more lighting. Service was great and super friendly. We even got to talk to the owner of the restaurant who told us a bit of the history behind the place(it was a restaurant that had been handled and turned into a bunch of different things — pub, asian cuisine, etc.) and what they plan to do with it — they want to make it a bistro, a welcoming place for everyone and anyone to come in at any time to have a casual drink, a snack, a place to study, etc. We ordered two entrees: pan roasted chicken served on potato gnocchi and a basil and tomato sauce and parmesan crusted salmon served on a nicoise salad(potatoes, tomatoes, green beans, a soft boiled egg all topped with a sweet mustard vinaigrette). The chicken was cooked perfectly — not dry — juicy and bursting with flavour. While I was expecting more of a bold gnocchi flavour, paired with the chicken and sauce, the dish was good. The salmon was delicious — the salad and egg make this a well-rounded healthy dish. Doesn’t leave you feeling greasy — leaves you feeling satisfied! For dessert, we ordered a salted caramel chocolate cake. It was decadent and sweet and served with a chocolate drizzle and whipped cream. It had a thick chocolate base and was pretty yummy though I would have liked for there to be more of a salty taste to it to balance the sweetness of the dish. Overall, Sweet Onion is a great venue and it’s located in one of London’s charming streets. Great for conversation and filled with warmth, Sweet Onion is here to stay.
