The Glass Onion is an absolute gem! 🌟 On a recent visit, I indulged in the SC Buttermilk Fried Quail with street corn - so flavorful! My partner loved the Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich too. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for families and groups. Fast service made our experience even better, although I was surprised to be charged for ketchup. 🤷‍♀️

The fried green tomatoes with pimento are a must-try! Trust me, they’re the best I’ve ever had! 🌿 We left with takeout pimento to enjoy later. We can’t wait to return!
