The onion rings were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the grilled tomato aioli dipping sauce was amazing.

These onion rings were absolutely delicious! The buttermilk batter was light and crispy, and the grilled tomato aioli dipping sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making these again.
