"Dress Code" will keep your friends from joining you – A group of friends and I planned a memorial toast at the Wild Onion last week. Unfortunately, when one of our group tried to join us, he was told at the door that he couldn't come in because he was wearing workout pants (which were dark gray, tailored, clean and had they not had a string around the waist, probably could have passed for dress pants) and they have a dress code that starts at 9PM. (It was ten after). I explained to the guy working the door why were there an... read more

Could not join memorial due to "dress code" – I've never been to the Wild Onion before tonight. I went there right after my Tai Chi class (which ends at 9pm) tonight to join some friend to toast someone who passed away 4 years ago in a tragic plane accident. I get to the door and the door guy says there is a dress code and my dark gray sweats (dark) were not code. I explain why I am there and he asks me where I live and if I could go change. I said west of Minneapolis so no. He asks the manager (it's 9:20pm now) and the mana... read more

Extremely Rude – I was at the Wild Onion recently and the staff was extremely rude. They were completely inhospitable and did not even treat me like I was a person; somehow they were above me because they worked there. I called to talk to the manager Laura and she did not even apologize. I later talked to Nick, who did not apologize either. I work in management, and I know that even if the customer is completely wrong or the complaint is unjust, you still listen and apologize and acknowledge why they are upset. There was non... read more

RACISM on GRAND at its BEST – I have been to the Wild Onion in the past for birthday’s celebrations that I have gone to. My Boyfriend and I where late to the birthday celebration last night and when we arrived we where advised that he could not enter because his shorts that where very form fitting where to baggy. I spoke with the female manager who stated that that is there policy. I asked where is it posted and I was directed to there 8 1/2 X 11 sign saying "dress code enforced" and nothing else. I asked what there entire l... read more

An average place – The Wild Onion is average, a little too average for its ideal location on Grand Avenue. While the happy hour is decent and the food is well priced, it seems more Applebee-esque than "Chicago neighborhood style." And while I've never experienced any major problems with the service, it's been lackluster at best. In the future, I think my money's better spent up Dale at Sweeny's or, if I want a big step up, at the Muddy Pig. While some people may like the environment, it's definitely not for me.

Discrimination on Grand Avenue – I have been to the Onion many times and always had a good time. I thought it would be a nice place to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday. I made a reservation, I called a head to make sure we could bring a cake and balloons, no problem. Let them know we would be a group of about 30 people. They asked if everyone was over 21, yes they would all be over 21. They should have asked if they were all 'white' because that seemed to be the real requirement. Of the 25 people that showed up there we... read more

Great place to celebrate Birthdays – Went here for their birthday tuesday promotion they offer to have dinner and some drinks, the waitress was great really friendly and the food was very good. They had a live band playing during there extended happy hour which was fun and gave the place a energetic vibe. After our dinner we finshed up our drinks and as we headed out the door noticed quite a few 21-25 yr olds filtering in, luckily for us we were just leaving as it seemed to be getting quite lively as it gets later in the nig... read more

Don't waste your time here! – I went to the wild onion with a group of friends for my birthday. Not only was the waitress extremely rude, she charged us incorrectly and refused to fix our bill. The Wild Onion management also has a rediculous rule that they will not split checks. At the end of the night our waitress dropped off our bill, which was wrong and torn into two peices, and told us we needed to figure out who owed what because she couldn't remember what each of us ordered. I'm a waitress and was infuriated by her poo... read more
