" Absolutely loved The Purple Onion! The ambiance was delightful, especially sitting outside on the patio. I ordered the guacamole burger and it blew my mind — incredibly juicy and richly flavored. The prices were fair, considering the quality and portion size. The staff members were polite and served the food quickly, which is a plus. This is definitely a restaurant I would keep coming back to whenever I'm in Pelham. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at The Purple Onion could definitely be improved. It felt a bit cramped and dated for my taste. However, I found the food to be quite good. The chicken charcoal plate was perfectly cooked, juicy, and flavorful—definitely worth trying! The staff was friendly, but the service was a little slower than I hoped. Overall, it was a decent experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to give The Purple Onion another try after a disappointing first visit. I ordered their falafel salad this time, and I have to say, it was fantastic! The falafel was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Service improved, too, as the servers were much more attentive. However, the messy interior still needs cleaning up. I would recommend it for a quick, satisfying meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was not too impressed with my visit to The Purple Onion. While the food tasted fresh overall, I found the portion sizes to be a little smaller than expected, especially given the price. The service was average at best; we had to wait a while for our orders, which was disappointing. Though the atmosphere was comfortable, I expected more from a restaurant that is highly rated. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, The Purple Onion has become one of my go-to spots! I absolutely fell in love with their chicken gyro. It was juicy and bursting with flavor, exceeded all my expectations. The service was fast and efficient which I appreciated. The dining area does need some updating, but it doesn’t deter from the quality of the food. Try the baklava for dessert—it’s heavenly! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very pleasant lunch at The Purple Onion. The ingredients felt fresh and the meal was deliciously authentic. I was particularly impressed with the vast menu selection, which made it hard to choose just one item. The atmosphere was also lovely, making it a nice spot for a family meal or a casual outing with friends. I originally stopped by on a whim but left with plans to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" During my visit to The Purple Onion, I was satisfied with the meal but disappointed with the cleanliness of the restaurant. The food was satisfactory and plentiful, though; I recall enjoying my falafel wrap thoroughly. I wouldn't mind coming back to try more items from their menu, especially if I could sit outside. So, while it was a mixed experience, there were definitely some positives to take away. " (*Curated Review*)
