I used to love this place, it was full of farm regulars (people like us who work the various farms and stables) and the servers knew us and we came not just for food but to see other regulars and get amazing service. Now it is full of new people who clearly have never served a day in their lives (who doesn't know what home fries are????) and service is slow and it feels just ughhh. If Danielle or Stephanie are not there I honestly just turn around now and choose other places. Clearly newer owners, I will never understand why people feel the need to fix what isn't broken.

When we first walked in The waitress sat us down right away was super nice the whole time I asked if they could put on the leaf game and she did it right away, the food me and my wife got was so tasty and a well maintained portion to enjoy a great meal. Great service, great food, fair prices- I would recommend 😀

This is a cute restaurant. We were there for lunch on a Saturday and it wasn't really busy. I assume, at night it is very busy and seems more attractive. The food wasn't anything out of ordinary for a pub/restaurant. But it tasted good. They didn't add all those artificial flavours and sauces to the food that made it taste comforting.

Found this little family owned diner last year when I needed a quick breakfast in Caledon and that was mostly the best decision I’ve ever made. I would love to say that me and my friends are now a regular there and are always treated the best! Everyone I’ve taken there for the first time always love it and end up coming there frequently too! DEFINITELY my favourite go to place for food close by!!! Especially on Thursdays for their amazing butter chicken which is god sent!!! Would absolutely recommend Red Onion to anyone looking for amazing food and great service!!

Montreal smoked meat sandwich on special for $14.99 I ordered it. And fries for the gravy please. When the food is ready for pick up, the waitress questioned the cook about whether it was Montreal smoked meat. I hear the cook say yes. When it comes to the table, I have a look. It’s definitely not Montreal smoked meat. It looks more like roast beef. Oh well, let’s eat. Note, that’s definitely roast beef. -1 point for this. Anyways, it tastes good. Gravy is lukewarm at best. -1 for this. Taste good though. Dang, I’d love to give a higher mark but the little errors. Table has remnants of previous coffee cup rings. I won’t penalize them for this otherwise they’re going to be failing. Yikes. Service staff was pretty good. Washrooms clean. Too bad about the little hiccups. Enjoy. I do recommend it. Too bad about the score.

This place was ok. We were in the area and needed to eat. It didn't "feel" the cleanest. There was bbq sauce or ketchup on the sugar dispenswr sitting at the table. The server was nice, but it took a long time to get service even though there weren't many people in the restaurant. She came over to take our good order even though she never took a drink order. She never came back to check in or offer refills. The food was good.

Great prices, the server did amazing handling all the tables by herself. The pasta was good but wasn't a fan of the texture of the sauce. Portion size was decent.

Sadly I couldn t not drop a review. it s too bad that the experienced blonde server has to pull double duty with her tables and the bar but also has to help the younger new server ( clearly zero experience and poor English) at my table with the difference between a lemon and an avocado. Like come on, what if customers have food allergies. Good luck, we won t be back.

This is an edit to a previous review, what is going on...we come in more than once a week in a big group. Lately the new servers are on another level. One didnt know how to refill a coffee. Kept bringing a new plate and cup with every refill. You can imagine a table of 5 how many coffee cups we had. They dont know the menu or what a home fry is. So forget adjusting your order. They simply dont understand. We only try to come in when the one or two consistent servers are there. I think her names Danielle. Otherwise I may just drive down to Johns. Also what kind of server doesnt know what a beer is. How on earth can they have their smart serve?? Its just utterly frustrating trying to order and this has been going on weeks. One time I got a completely different meal... Breakfast is always great. Very reasonably priced. Always top notch service. Good burgers, the butter chicken is surprisingly really really good. They will even make it vegetarian for me. We come here almost once a week if not more!

Great food, very delicious. Horrible service. We were one of first groups in. We got food almost an hour after ordering. But all the Indian families they showed up after us got their food first. Way before us, and only because we went up to the front to ask our food 2x. Never once refilled our drinks, after we asked for our bills, we had to keep asking for our bill. We had 3 children in our group and spending this long in a restaurant creates a lot of frustration We left only 5% tip so at least the cooks could get something. But unless Im in the area ordering takeout, I will never sit down to eat here again Kid-friendliness: Not many options for kids. Could at least have a child pasta meal

October 21, 2024

First time going to this restaurant and will never return again. Do not recommend. The portions and quality of the food were terrible. Staff all stared at me when I addressed the concern about the food. Felt very uncomfortable. Will not be returning.

October 21, 2024

Ordered eggs bendict, something really simple. Lack of flavor and very little hollandaise sauce. Ordered steak and eggs, no flavor whatsoever, very bland food. My husband told me we Ordered from this place before and had the same issue but I guess I forgot. Wont be ordering from here again.

Server was excellent, she was handling all of the tables and the pick ups on a busy Thursday lunch. When we arrived for pick up on of the meals was missed so the other two meals were left on the counter. The server informed the cook that it was missing and he was rude to her. As well, they touched raw product and cooked product with their hands without any hand washing at all. They touched their glasses, faces no hand washing. Hygiene was extremely poor and the cook should have at least apologized for missing the whole meal. Thai was more like sweet and show, rice no noodles, steak was below par. I would not recommend simply do to the lack of hygiene, many food safety violations.

If youre a real man, try the 10 oz steak with pepper sauce. Real pepper in grains. Never had it before, not sure why... Cudos for the waitress on Saturday, Aug 31st afternoon, really dedicated to her work. Besides, someone there likes Bob Dylan music. I appreciate GREAT music in restaurants, with a proper volume level. Given that its a gas station bar, I was nothing but positively surprised.

★★★★

Im not giving this a perfect score because I find the waitresses, one is too slow but I wont fault her because she was new and the other one has been there for years and takes her time giving us a menu also. She may have gotten a little too comfortable

Recently my Husband, youngest Son & I were in the Caledon area on Saturday Sept 14th and decided to look for a place to get dinner, when we came across the Red Onion Restaurant... why not try it out!! The restaurant seemed fairly busy when we first arrived (seat yourself), our server was a young woman who was smiley & polite, she came over within a min or two with menus and took our refreshment order, then within a couple minutes she returned with our drinks and took our orders. The food was served in good time and servings were a good size for the price plan. The guys ordered the wings, one w/fries and one w/red onion loaded fries and if you want a superb salad order the Red Onion Power Bowl Salad... you wont regret it!!! The staff were all very friendly, the restaurant and washrooms were kept clean, the parking lot is huge. The place has character, not overly fancy but very welcoming. Our family will definitely return when in the area and would most definitely suggest for other folks to try out this restaurant. Vegetarian options: Im not a vegetarian, however I ordered the Red Onion Power Bowl Salad and not only was it one of the BEST salads Ive ever had I was large in size, filled me up, yet not in a stuffed way. I recommend this 100% Parking: The parking lot is huge and we had no issues locating a spot. Kid-friendliness: There were different age children with their families... from a baby, up to10 yrs and then our teenager.

Food was awesome We ordered 2 piece fish and chips and a quesadilla The peppers in the quesadilla were very hard but otherwise it was great. The fish and chips were great! The service was decent and friendly UPDATE So we came in today tables were disgusting we were not greeted so we found a seat but the only table was by the washrooms and there s no privacy it s just not a good seat! We sat at a bigger table until we could get a Smaller clean table. The waitress greeted everyone else brought them menus. She finally cleared a table and says it s only the two of you? We said yes she says you can t sit there that s for for 10 people and it s Saturday. She was so absolutely rude she didnt come say it to us she said it loud enough everyone heard it was kinda embarrassing she didn t even give us a chance to let her know we were waiting patiently for a clean smaller table with some privacy that s not 5 feet from the washrooms. We went to move seats but with the attitude and crappy atmosphere we decided that we didn t need to be crapped on! We ve eaten here over 10 times this summer alone I ve given good reviews we tip well we re polite. We re two parents with 2 special need kids that get respite we come all the way from Mississauga and choose to eat here . I had no idea that it got busy enough on a particular day that we couldn t just sit at a table, if it was. A big deal she should have greeted us and let us know. We don t live here.We didn t deserve to be treated like this .. today I needed this I needed comfort food and relied on your restaurant to fulfill that need! At the end I wasn t rude I didn t get angry! I did not deserve this treatment! The lady that works all week is absolutely amazing! If this was my first experience here I would never come back.

Came here for breakfast, for the first time since the renovations. Just wanted to start off with knowing the food was good, and the server was nice. We also couldnt beleive how decently priced everything was. Anyway, We walk in, it wasnt too busy as of yet. There were 2 people standing at the bar, watching the TV above. We looked around for a server. Turns out, she was the server. She turns her head for a second, and says hi, sit anywhere you want, guys. Then continued to watch the game. We sat, and after listening to her talk about the game to whom she was with, she came over and took our drink orders. We didnt wait long for her to come to our table, witch was nice. Then some regulars came in, and all was well, until it started to get busy. A couple of guys came in, she asked how many people were joining. They said 6 people all together. 10 people ended up being the total. Then a few more tables came in, and she noticeably started to get stressed out. By then, we have already gotten our food, witch was pretty good. I hear her starting to shout can someone call Havi? I believe that was the name. Im assuming thats either the owner, or another wait staff, to help her out. Being the fact it was a Sunday morning, I thought there may have been more than one server on. Then she starts to repeat it louder and louder. I dont see anyone calling Havi! That also had a couple of choice words as well, but Ill spare those details. As it got busier, we have finished our food by then, and waited patiently for our bill. After about 35 minutes of yelling, swearing and stressing, a gentleman finally comes over, apologizes to us for the wait. To witch, we understood. We both worked in restaurants. We know how its gets busy quick. We werent too bothered by it. I felt bad for the girl to be honest. Then once we paid, no one came back to retrieve the debit machine, so we had left. We liked the food, so we plan on coming back to try their dinner menu. I hope she got some extra help that morning

Ordered Butter Chicken, got Butter chicken sausage. Butter chicken curry was sour and had a pathetic taste. Rice was not totally cooked and could smell the raw rice smell from the rice. All these for high price Dont know the name but the bartender was good, she served hot toddy which was good. Probably this mandatory 1 star goes to her service.

My brother in-law had been recommending this place for some time. Nice new decor, had breakfast. The server was very unkempt looked like she just woke up and came into wrk. Service was ok. Got coffee and found the paper lid of the mini butter container inside it , np. I let them know and they gave me fresh cup. The food was not great the potatoes were undercooked and still somewhat raw. The sausage was burnt to a crisp and did not taste right. Ordered a side of ham and it was burned and dry did not look fresh, might have been sitting for a while. No joke felt like they gave me old ham off someone elses plate. Bacon was great. Did not finish the breakfast and will not recommend the breakfast. Plenty of better places with similar price. Will not be going back.

I recently visited Red Onion , and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. This family restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The menu offers a wide variety of options, including many family-friendly dishes. I particularly enjoyed the Seafood Fettuccine, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were reasonable, making it an excellent value for families on a budget. The staff was friendly and attentive, and they made sure that our dining experience was exceptional. They were happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions we had, and they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and satisfied. Overall, I would highly recommend Red Onion to anyone looking for a delicious and affordable meal in a welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere. Whether youre dining with kids or just looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a meal, this restaurant has something for everyone. I cant wait to go back!

Stopped in while passing by but I think we will be stopping in again next time in the area. First the décore was really nice, updated, well lit and lots of space between the tables and benches! Fiorela was our waitress, I asked what she would recommend and she started her recommendation by asking how hungry we were (I never thought of taking that into consideration ). She gave her personal recommendations from each menu area...App, salad, burger, sandwiches. She was so helpful and very pleasant. I ended up with the Butter chicken and my husband the RO burger with RO fries (pictured). I really enjoyed mine and sampled some of his dinner to. He LOVED it. He normally puts ketchup on everything and he said not even the fries needed it. The burger was enormous with 2 patties (we arent talking McDonalds patties either). The portions were plentiful. I would like to give 4.5 stars because of the bathroom. It was cold and it had a not so pleasant odour and my husband said the same about his washroom. Since its attached to the gas station i assume this is an issue out of control of the restaurant because they clearly took pride in everything from décore, plates and presentation of food.

Stopped in this morning for breakfast at your location and was surprised how bad the experience was. This was my fourth time coming here and will be my last. First off the waitress didnt look like she cared to be there, she didnt refill coffee or water till the meal was done. Also my wife doesnt eat eggs so we asked for a substitute. Once I got the bill I realized she didnt substitute it she charged me for an extra order of expensive produce as she put it. This would not have been an issue if I was warned we could have gotten tomatoes at no charge. The waitress truly ruined our experience and our view upon this place. Its a shame because the food is actually quite good.

And more over Racism over the top They are greeting there community with such a great geatures and us she didnt even bother to ask for water Pathetic service

December 21, 2023

What can I say!!! If there was a 0 for service, thats what I would give. We went there on Fathers Day and every single minute of our time there was time wasted. We waited almost an hour for our food: eggs not cooked as requested; hamburger so dry couldnt eat it; no attention to when cups needed to be refilled, orders received wrong, etc, and dont even get me started about the service. We were a group of 7 and wanted to split the bill into 2 separate bills. We were not allowed to do that. We couldnt figure out what the problem was but the server just kept telling us (in not so nice a manner) they werent allowed to do it and that she spoke with the manager and they said no. What if someone didnt have enough money on them to foot a $140 bill (for food that some of us couldnt even eat)? What if others didnt have the cash to pay their share? What kind of craziness is this? AND..when my 12 year old granddaughter tried to say something, the server cut her off in an extremely rude manner. We were also told they are too busy - hmmm.... many empty tables and no line up. Thats NOT busy! We are a group of 15 people who have been long time customers and since has happened before, we will not be returning.

If I could give the service 0 stars I would ! The waitress should get a new job she looked miserable being there ( did not offer to refill our coffee or asked if we even liked our meal! The portions were actually good it was just the waitress attitude which made the dinning experience horrible! Will not be returning here ever again !

Excellent poutine, wrap and service, the chef actually made me his first Blooming Onion in the RedOnion. Definitely a great place to grab a bite to eat. If Im ever that way again, we will definitely stop again.

we came in the restaurant was not busy. We had to grab our own menus. I came with three people two of us got served. The third got served when two of us were finished our meal. We asked for a top up for our coffee. He completely ignored us. The service here is horrible. I would not recommend to anybody.

Had a brunch there... Nice and clean restaurant..we ordered a nachos, it was a big serving and it is delicious! .. kind of busy inside but 1 server at that time, but she did great! However, the Esso gas station outside is very busy as the gas price is way cheaper than anywhere else in the area..

This could be a 5 stars, but the waitress looks like she doesnt want to be here and forced to work. I put my hand up many times to get things missing from my order. She is so busy on her phone behind the counter. The two guys great work in the kitchen. Is not even busy at the moment. I dont know if they refill coffee. Every breakfast place does. Experience was so bad thanks to the waitress. And I stand to pay and walk away with my missing items. I did not want to deal with her anymore.

Hey Im local to here and wanted to like this place. Looks kind of neat and fun. Ordered sausage eggs and a coffee. Food comes out and eggs are so runny they are water. They try again but on same plate so there is just raw egg everywhere. The homefries had to be from at least 3-4 days ago and had been reheated multiple times. Neat part was some of them had pancake batter on them from a previous refry (no one else in restaurant ordering). Just bad all around really disappointed. $18 for coffee and eggs and bacon...... Would be fine if the quality was high but nope. What a rip off.

We ordered calamari to start (good for 2 ppl) pork souvlaki, fish and chips, red onion burger which was amazing, and the buffalo chicken burger. Other than maybe the flat Diet Coke, this resteraunt was a great way to end the day for a late lunch/early dinner.

We went there in a group of 8 people for late lunch and went there based on the reviews. It is next to the gas station, so we did expect that much. But the food was delicious and the servant was very polite and helpful. The only problem was there are limited parking spot available and it seems they were short in staff, it was only one person for service and the bathroom was not in a good condition.

My family and I had wanted to visit this restaurant for a while! The atmosphere was very cozy and the staff were really pleasant. The food was lovely but my only complaint was that the meals weren t made from scratch. My daughter and I had the banquet burger and while it was lovely, we were disappointed the burger patty was a frozen burger. One of the things we love about road side diners is home made burgers! Again, everything was lovely but I would encourage this restaurant to invest in making their meals from scratch versus using frozen ingredients patrons may be able purchase outside the restaurant and cook themselves at home. Overall we had a great experience and it d be great to see this restaurant continue to do well with a few tweaks to the menu!

We ate here a number of times and it was good. Something changed. The last 2 times we were here, the food and service were awful. This morning we went for breakfast. The server forgot to bring a tea bag for the tea pot. The potatoes were 1/2 cooked and still somewhat raw inside. The eggs florentine were excessively runny and watery, in spite of the fact that I asked for poached medium. We will not be going back. The Red Onion manager asked that I email them about this issue. I emailed them September 27/23. I never heard back. Terrible customer service.

Stopped in for a late lunch. 4 star because Restaurant is very nice, clean & tidy. Staff helpful & friendly. Food rating would be 3 star. We were disappointed to find the food was bland . Hub had a banquet burger & I had fish tacos. Both meals seemed to be missing something. The tacos didn t have cabbage or guacamole under the fish, just a bit of shredded lettuce. Appearance of both meals was very appealing to the eye (see pictures) but taste was definitely missing something. Wish we d ordered breakfast instead.f

Never even got to drink my tea. And the sip of coffee I had was gross! Bad experience again. Would of spent more then $100.00 wasted time.

The Red Onion was the go to place for our lunch until now. The prices have gone up from $10 for a plain burger and fries has gone up to $15 and the quality has dropped to the point it is comparable to a McDonalds cheeseburger and fries. I understand inflation but that is crazy. they have not updated there website at all with the new pricing. Sorry Red Onion that will be our last trip there.

I went with a friend today for lunch and right at the beginning we already didn t have a good experience. We were standing there waiting for a table for at least 20 minutes before one of the waitresses acknowledged us and told it was going to be a few minutes. She didn t even look at us when she said that though. It also took them a very long time to clear tables for new customers. The wait for the food was acceptable and the quality of the food was really good. Unfortunately, even at the end of our dining, we experienced another disappointment. We asked for the bill and told our waitress (Danielle) that we needed the machine to pay. She acknowledged but never came back with it, went to chat with other customers. At the end, we couldn t wait any longer and just paid cash and left. The food was good but the service was definitely lacking
