Glass Onion

Mother's day and they had a full house. We dined on the sidewalk and had a lovely experience. Service was excellent, food delicious and all desserts are homemade.

This small Italian restaurant was worth the 15 minute drive from the Grove Park Inn to escape the Asheville dinner crowds and enjoy a lovely meal. The wine list is approachable with both everyday and higher end options available. We chose a midrange Napa red blend to pair with the bolder flavors and red sauces. The couple at the table next to us were so excited about the Wild Boar Bolognese they made sure to lean over and share their recommendation (which was backed up by a completely cleaned plate!) Their enthusiasm was infectious, so we followed their lead, but asked the chef to serve it over the Fresh Fettuccini instead of the Rigatoni. The flavors of roasted peppers together with the sweet and nutty wild boar were great, and we added a little spice with red pepper for a hearty and flavorful dinner. Nothing beats fresh fettuccini and I’d commend Glass Onion’s highly. The fried eggplant entree was a Special, and our server’s high recommendation of it swayed the decision. No regrets as the combination of the spicy sauce with the light pasta and warm cheese was classic and unmissable. The service was fantastic too! Consider getting off the beaten path, and travel just another few miles outside Asheville for a cozy and wonderful Italian meal.

A little out of the way place that great overall. They have a full bar great selection of wines and their food is absolutely delicious. The dessert was awesome an 11 layer spice cake. The only small negative was the service was off waitress never came back to checked back to see if everything was ok just might be an off night. Would go back if in the area again.

Service and menu are amazing. Very close quarters, smaller place. But great food.
