Quiet little spot for dinner. The truffle fries and steak au poivre were fantastic. Our server Kristina was very polite and attentive as was the rest of the staff. Perfect for date night.
The food is absolutely amazing. I went for lunch with a party of 10 and although there was only one server, the service was pretty good. I ordered the grilled Boursin chicken sandwich with truffle fries and a mango lemonade and everything was delicious. I would definitely recommend!!
We made a reservation for ten the table was set and ready for us. We ordered quickly and the food was received quickly also. Everything was delicious I had scrambled eggs with goat cheese on English muffin delish. The pancakes was huge you received two and they were very tasty. We had a pitch of sangria, someone has shrimp and grits she said it was very good. The lobster rolls was loaded with lobster salad. Pricing was not to bad.
Delightful café in Ghent neighborhood of Norfolk. Great selection of French wines. We sat outside to enjoy the day, very nice setup. Salads with grilled shrimp and house made dressings were amazing, accompanied by glasses of white Bordeaux. The wait staff is very friendly and attentive.
Located in the heart of the Greening of Ghent festivities!! Popped right in after the bands played, got seated and had a wonderful meal. Customer service was fast and friendly. Bar seating, tables for groups and some cool sofa seating for a group of friends and cocktails. The lobster rolls are delicious....highly recommend Green Onion.
