I thoroughly enjoyed my meal here start to finish on a snowy February night. Love the overall vibe, service was seamless and excellent, the food was delicious! I appreciate a restaurant who makes crushes the main dishes but also makes memorable and flavorful sides. For example, we got the lobster roll with a side salad and the 1/2 chicken. Both were phenomenal as expected but the perfectly dressed salad, fresh warm biscuits, and collard greens just knocked it out of the park. Oysters were fresh and delightful and paired perfectly with a bottle of wine, 10% off on wine Wednesdays. Woo! We will be back.

We had dinner at onion city for my birthday this past October (like 4 days ago). We were greeted quickly and seated. We ordered a whiskey sours and wine while we scanned the menu. I ordered a bowl of clam chowder as an appetizer, which was buttery and delightful. Dinner was a lobster roll and fish and chips. Lobster was tender and not overly dressed. Fish was lightly breaded and not over done. Staff were great, delightful and attentive. Environment is clean and cozy. Overall, had a great time. Highly recommended. We look forward to out next visit for the fried chicken sandwich. It’s got quite the reputation…. A great one. Check out Onion City. Well worth it.

One of the best places near Burlington I’ve found. We’ve been here four times already and find no reason to stop coming back. The oysters are fresh and delicious. Expect a slightly less expansive spread if you’re going during their 2$ 4-5pm oyster happy hour. Elsewhere you will pay more but sometimes get a wider variety. The drinks and service are top notch. The shellfish is delicious. The fried chicken is mind blowing in the rare event you’re still hungry after the oysters and (very good) sides. For those in the know, this is pretty much all the best parts of Misery Loves Company. Strongly recommended.

Have eaten here half a dozen times, and each experience is more disappointing than the time before. Dined here on New Years Eve, seated at an extremely small table inches from the bathroom. Our server didn’t put our drinks in and we didn’t receive them until nearly half an hour after we sat. Appetizers were food (beignets and shrimp cocktail). My companion was offered a drink refill which was also forgotten, and I never was. Ordered their signature item, the fried chicken, which comes family style, and was overcooked and the skin was charred. The table was entirely too small for the amount of plates and dishes and felt like trying to dine in an airplane tray table. Server never checked in to aam how things were. Ordered dessert, which was fine – carrot cake for me (tasted like Funfetti, no carrot flavor or texture elements) and mousse for my date. Bill was nearly $200 for a disappointing meal and experience. The first time I went, seated at a much bigger table, the food was well prepared and the service was attentive – but each time since then the experience has been disappointing.

The oysters were fresh and delicious! We then ordered the family fried chicken with an assortment of 5 sides. I wish I had the talent of a food critic to describe how fabulous this meal was. The best fried chicken ever and from Vermont farm! The sides went perfectly with the chicken and the potato salad was great! Very attentive staff and the atmosphere was very nice! Great value for the high quality of the food. Thank you for making our anniversary dinner one to remember.

We had their oysters and loved them. Then we had a full chicken. The skin on the fried chicken was very bland. It had no flavor or spices at all. The meat was at least moist. The biscuits were very dry and bland as well. Did not care for the baked beans or the potato salad. Went to this establishment due to such high reviews. I was very disappointed and the chicken is not cheap. I would personally not recommend this place to my friends.

I ordered fish n chips and clam chowder. The chowder was tasty, but nothing noteworthy.
Highly disappointed in the fish n chips. The fish was measley pieces… super thin and merely tossed in flour before frying. Yuk.
No color and not much taste. The tartar sauce saved the meal. I guess I should have read the menu closer as the “chips” are actually potato chips, not fries.
Very disappointing overall.
It was a chilly damp day and the door was open for the breeze to come in and I was sat under a fan. Not a comfortable dining experience.

Loved it! Cheddar beignets were delicious to start. The fried chicken was excellent and the honey butter sauce took it to another level. Finished off the meal with the chocolate mousse that hit the spot; seemed like a darker chocolate than i usually see. Really nice. Finally, service was excellent and helpful and friendly. We’ll be back.

The baked beans & cabbage slaw were amazing!!(& of course the fried chicken as well). The dessert biscuit was also out of this world. We really enjoyed our server & the atmosphere – will definitely be returning!
