Asked for and received a high-top table in the corner of the bar. Service was a tiny bit slow, but we were not in a hurry. Food was excellent as always. We shared the Brûléed Brie appetizer - perfect amount of sweet and savory. I had Ravioli with sweet corn ricotta - very tasty. My partner had Meatballs & Pasta - another perfect pairing of sweet and savory. Dessert was a unique take on tiramisu. Perfect ending to a lovely meal.

My girlfriend and I came in to celebrate our anniversary together and we were not disappointed! We started with cosmos and bruschetta, which were delicious. We then got Pesto Shrimp & Ravioli! These courses were very delicious we’ll definitely be back to try the other options! Our server Lexi was very kind, friendly and her suggestions were spot on! Moscato was delish and the cocktail “hugo spritz” was different but exellent! 10/10 will be back

Onesto’s bolognese is simply delicious…a little pricey, but well worth it, flavorful, full of beef and packing just a little heat to make it taste oh so good. Service is great and splitting a Caesar salad at lunch is just the ticket…basket of rolls, fresh brewed iced tea and then the Italian entree. Leave completely full and you don’t need to eat dinner!
