Patrick Kelly, of the Blue Onion restaurant in Betsey Mills, shows off some of the china the eatery derives its name from. Steak, seafood and pork chops are just a few of the restaurant's dinner items. The Blue Onion, housed in the Betsey Mills Club, also offers sandwiches, pasta, soups and salads on its lunch menu, and has a Sunday brunch.
People like to stop in before or after church.
Several restaurants have occupied the Betsey Mills location in the past four years, according to Kelley. Victorian Windows was the last restaurant there before the opening of the Blue Onion in January 1998. Kelley has been involved in the restaurant business for more than 20 years. I later decided to go to culinary school in New York. Kelley went on to co-own a Cleveland restaurant called Biestro des Artistes.
