The Green Onion Restaurant Review: Despite a name that sounds like that of a vegan haven or a trendy latch-on to the wholesale (though laudable) greening of America, The Green Onion is an eclectic bistro with both Euro-centric and contemporary American sensibilities. The name is emblematic of this cool, cosmopolitan eatery’s value on freshness and budding professionalism. While there is ample fare to sate non-meat eaters, such as sweet chili-sautéed vegan chicken over a mixed green salad with cremini mushrooms and red onions, one may also opt for the grilled pork tenderloin with grape gastrique atop roasted beet slaw, or the pan-seared duck breast with black currant coulis on spaghetti squash and wilted spinach. Seafood surfaces here, too, as in sautéed diver scallops with lobster cheesecake. And 120 pounds of mussels may be downed before each Wednesday’s all-you-can-eat special is through. Natuzzi lounge, popping with chartreuse couches and cozy conversation corners, more than doubles the still-intimate restaurant’s size, and makes it a sophisticated setting for late-night martinis and tapas on weekends. |
