Editor’s Description

Last updated: Jun 6, 2019

The Purple Onion is yet another concept from the prolific David Laris, bringing his consultant touch to a secluded patio and tiny indoor area. He's installed Aussie chef Lex Hauser, who's turning out a punchy and bold mix of Mediterranean and comfort dishes for sharing, in a determinedly "offbeat" Romantic Goth dining room. The expansive outdoor area is still a gem, but spaces are limited and The Purple Onion is popular, so reservations are a must.
