Purple Onion Restaurant

My spouse and I have been going to Purple Onion for the past 21 years. We frequently stop by for breakfast before church on Sundays and other mornings, as well as lunch and dinner from time-to-time. Their broiled pork chops are the best I've ever eaten! Their salads are fresh, plentiful, and beautifully presented. They were ahead of the times by featuring buffalo burgers on their menu way before many other south suburban restaurants did so. I fondly remember bringing my friend, her mother, and her mother's friend here and we ALL ordered buffalo burgers- for the novelty of it! My spouse and I very much enjoy the "home away from home" feeling at the "Purple Onion".The owners and waitresses are sincerely friendly and we are not rushed out of our booth to make way for incoming patrons. We have often brought our company here, with favorable comments from them. We enjoy the quiet time to just sit and talk while we let "Purple Onion" take care of us when we need a break from home. We are appreciative to have this family fare restaurant nearby with its cozy atmosphere.

Been going here for more than 20 years. Beef delight sandwich awesome

I generally love diners.  I do not love this diner.  The food is pretty terrible and has been for about 20 years.  Every time i drive by i wonder how in the hell it has remained open.
