Onion Maiden

I wanted to go somewhere with good vegan food and sit down one night, so I thought I would try this place. I guess I didn't expect it to be so busy! It's also pretty small. Anyway, I just decided to order some takeout food and hangout on a waiting bench. The food took awhile, but I was alright with waiting. I ordered the Balls to Wall (tofu croquettes), the Raw Cheesecake otd (blueberry... thyme, I think?), and a wedding cookie from the display case. The tofu croquettes were amazing themselves. Crispy on the outside and smooth-thick on the inside. I wasn't the biggest fan of the forbidden rice (I ended up just eating the croquettes as they were, because yum, and a pile of rice was left staring at me), but I appreciated it as an occasional accoutrement to the croquettes. The cheesecake... was the most beautiful little cheesecake I had ever seen in my life. And it was delicious. The "crust" was actually pretty crunchy, contrary to a lot of other raw cheesecakes, so I was impressed. The wedding cookie was equally delightful in taste; nothing could match the cheesecake's presentation, though. All-in-all, I guess I had a lot to say. Maybe getting the food wasn't as smooth as I'd planned, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Thankful to have found this place. I very much appreciate that the entire menu is vegan. Even as a picky eater, I was able to find something I liked! The ube cheesecake was incredible, as was our server. Food was delivered very quickly once our order was placed. Will be back for sure! Dining area is rather small and there aren't many seats, so it can feel a bit cramped but no complaints what so ever.

We are visit Pittsburgh for work. One of our team is vegan so we trekked to Allentown from downtown tonight. The atmosphere was great, the menu was fun, the service was fantastic, and the food was delicious. We had the poutine, a veggie dog, the dumplings, various tots, and even the cheesecake. So good! Thank you! A highlight of my trip.

Sweet. Onion Maiden hits the sweet spot between serious and silly. The names of the dishes are silly dad jokes but the food is seriously delicious and precise. Our party included vegans, lactose intolerant and celiacs. But the incredible staff at Onion Maiden handled it all very well. Plus, everything tasted great! I think my favorite thing was the service as our waitress was possibly the best waitress I have ever encountered!

The Onion Maiden was fantastic vegan! They sat me down instantly, provided great service and were helpful with recommendations. I had a few bites of a few items on the menu bc I wanted to try it all! The hot dog was by far the best! It was just a touch spicy & sweet. The restaurants decor is so fun. Absolutely would go back.

If you love metal, and vegan food this is the place for you. Everything is so good. We tried Balls to the Wall, General Ngo’s, Emperor Palpatots, Hang Ten, Cookie Monster, Metalachi Cookie, Rainbow in the Dark brownie, green manalishi cupcake, and Red Wedding Iced Tea. Everything was delicious! I liked the General Ngo’s over the Emperor Palpatots. You’d think that the cabbage and bean sprouts would make the tots soggy, but nope! Still crunchy. The dawg was sooooo good. I could have eaten like 20 of them. The balls to the wall were tofu croquettes are definitely the best way I’ve had tofu. Get these for your friend who hates tofu. Game changer. The wedding cookie was very flavorful, but a bit crumbly. The chocolate chip cookie, and brownie were good too. The real winner tho was the green manalishi cupcake. Matcha almond cake filled with strawberry cashew cream. Finished it all with the red wedding tea, don’t skip it. No dine in, but we took it to go and ate over at the Grandview Overlook.

The atmosphere of this place is amazing and the food was wonderful! FYI, you don’t have to worry about making a reservation unless you’re a party of 6 or more; they don’t take them for fewer than that. The place is small and does have limited seating, but even so, my husband and I only waited a half-hour to get a table for dinner. I got the Headbangers Balls and I’m already craving it again. My husband and I both got the Terrormisu for dessert (to go). SO GOOD!! I can’t wait to go back!

The menu at Onion Maiden makes it worth a two, three, or four hour drive just to enjoy its one of a kind, punk inspired creations. The cheese is the most realistic, creamy vegan cheese I’ve ever had! The atmosphere is exciting yet professional, and don’t get me started on the dessert. We ordered an entire tiramisu cake for a birthday- best cake we’ve had (vegan or not)
