I came here with a group of girls for a casual dinner. It was my first time here and overall the restaurant is very pretty with a low light ambience atmosphere. Perfect setting for a date night! The service was overall good. The food wasn't bad but also wasn't amazing. I thought the bread was kind of bland without much flavor, although it did come out warm and served with bread and butter. I ordered the carbonara which seemed just average as well based on flavor.

We had a lovely dinner to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. Robert was our waiter and he was so attentive and made our dinner even more amazing with his calm demeanor and it was nice to have such a relaxing time enjoying awesome food!!! The gluten free options were very tasty as well and that isn’t always the case, so much appreciated. We live nearly 3 hours away, but will definitely return. Thanks Robert and Onesto for a lovely evening.

Genuinely some of the worst Italian me and my boyfriend have ever had. We came here for the first time for our anniversary and were severely disappointed. Upon first impression everything looked nice and was very quaint. Bread came and was warm but nothing special. (Also the only saving grace about their food.) I ordered a lemonade which was also nothing special. For dinner my boyfriend got the Bolognese and I got the Carbonara (no pancetta, add chicken breast.) Both weren’t simply underwhelming but objectively bad. My boyfriend said his pasta had no flavor and the meat tasted metallic. My chicken also had no flavor and tasted almost burnt, in addition to my pasta being grainy and such an unpleasant texture I could barely eat any of it. Waitress didn’t notice our practically untouched plates and after 20 minutes of sitting there we were handed to go boxes without being so much as asked as to how our food tasted. We paid and tipped but will not ever be returning to Onesto. For the price point, this place is absolutely NOT worth it.

Took my girlfriend to Onesto for her birthday dinner. We started with the blood orange mule and black cherry old fashioned. Both drinks were really good the old fashioned was strong! We then had the meat and cheese board for our appetizer. All the accoutrements were so fresh and the sweet drop peppers were something I had never tried before. For entrees I got the Gnocchi with chicken and she had the Carbonara. One of the best meals I have eaten in a long, especially since moving to Milwaukee. I would highly recommend Onesto for a date night or special occasion if you’re in the Milwaukee area! 10/10 experience from start to finish.

Perfect Venue for an Intimate Wedding We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect setting or smoother experience for our wedding reception! From start to finish, the Onesto team went above and beyond to make everything absolutely perfect. The venue is wonderful, the event space has everything that you need, and every detail felt thoughtfully handled. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was, how great the atmosphere of Onesto felt, and how seamless everything went. The staff were incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely kind — they made us feel so supported and relaxed throughout the entire process. We’re so grateful to Emme and the whole team for making our day so special and for taking care of all of our requests while making me feel so at ease. If you’re looking for a venue that’s elegant, well-organized, and full of heart, Onesto is the one!
