Pomegranite Martini- worth it
posted by millicentme on Jul. 2, '09 at 9:07 AM

I was here about a month ago and tried the pomegranite martini. I was never big on the "classic" martini but this was delicious and definitely worth the $9 (?) that it was. I had two- I could have stopped at one.

I should add- the service left something to be desired. My friends and I sat at a table and had to wait a long LONG time to get our drinks. After feeling the wicked buzz of the second martini I asked for a water.... I never got the water.

Maybe it would have been different if I had sat at the bar. Rating: ****

Birthdays Only...

For the reason of free drinks and a free t-shirt the onion is worth visiting on tuesday night. The crowd also seems to be pretty ample, yet not over-crowded for a tuesday night so I guess if your wanting to go out on a tuesday and be around people this would be the place for you. Other than that the times i've been there on the weekends its too ridiculously crowded to even move past the door so don't even bother. Haven't tried the food but from what I saw when I was there it has typical bar food, nachos, fries, etc. Rating: ***

Partying like I was in college again

But that's not necessarily a good thing.
This is a good location if you wanna get your dance on in St. Paul...
but other then that..if you don't wear Abercrombie and Fitch daily, this may not be the place for you.
Don't forget that on the weekend it is disgustingly over packed and your gonna wait forever to get your drink - only for the drink to then be spilled on you whilst dancing Rating: ****

This place is a good choice for your birthday if it falls on a night where there aren't other crazy specials going on. You get free drinks (choose one and they fill you up till a certain hour) in a colossal mug, specials on food for your party, and other freebies...a t-shirt, perhaps? I'm not sure. They have your typical DJ, which is fun enough if you're kinda drunk. If it weren't someone's birthday, I wouldn't go there by choice. Rating: ***

The Onion does indeed have great onion rings, but don't visit this bar on a Tuesday or a weekend night. Sure, birthday Tuesdays may be a good place to get your ass grabbed, but let's face it--most girls do not thrive off of that type of attention.

One word: Ick. Rating: **
