Wednesday Night at ONYX-The best deal in town!

I’ve been noticing a pattern about the places that I go for dinner…I LOVE to try new restos, don’t get me wrong, but there are certain ones here in Halifax that have that…something. Though I’ve eaten there countless times before, I have dinner plans on Tuesday at the Brooklyn Warehouse, a place I’ve been often, but keep coming back to for great food, service and atmosphere. Another spot, and this Wednesday’s dinner plans, is ONYX on Spring Garden Road; another resto where service is fantastic and the food is impeccable, it’s a ‘go-to’ spot where I know I won’t be disappointed.
The obvious allure of Wednesday at ONYX is the 1/2 price Bar Bites menu, and the lack of corkage fee. That’s right, BYOB, and no charge for the service. A deal that is, hands down, the best one in Halifax. A couple weeks ago, some friends (in wine sales) and I had a lovely evening with a nice variety of wines at ONYX, supplemented with some tasty treats.
The boys had steaks, and some oysters were shared, but I went for my absolute fave- the duck Spring Rolls; crispy wrapper enveloping rich, tender meat, accompanied by a tangy dipping sauce. I also went for one of my favorite deep-fired treats, onion rings. I don’t know what kind of magnetism onion rings have that always draws me to order them in a fine dining resto, but I simply can’t resist them. Case end point: Bish, Ryan Duffy’s and my upcoming post on CUT Steakhouse. However, I’m pretty sure that ONYX wins for my fave O-rings in Hali!
