    Our server who was training another employee was excellent. Very good service provided. 👏🏼 the food was great and portion size was great for the price. And the environment was awesome too. The music, the crowd, the interior, even the temperature. Not too air conditioned and freezing like every other place we’ve been to. Overall great first impression!

    We'd heard good things about Onseto so I was eager to give it a try. For what it's worth, it was a lazy mid-afternoon on a Friday; that lost space between lunch and dinner. Maybe that had some bearing on the impression I will relate but, it probably shouldn't. We began with the butter board. Interesting and delicious. Nice presentation and nice variety. I can eat roasted garlic all day long! For a main course my wife had the Pesto Chicken Sandwich. It was good. Nothing too special. I had the Warm Mushroom Salad. That was special! Maybe a touch too much dressing but otherwise delicious. I also added a couple of scallops on the side. They were cooked to perfection and really complimented the salad nicely. I'd eat that again in a minute. Here comes Problem #1. My brother wanted to go low carb so he ordered two "Additions" rather than a meal. He got Caramelized Cauliflower and an order of meatballs. The Cauliflower was OK but the meatballs were extremely dried out. He tried to cut one with the side of his fork and it scooted away without yielding to the pressure, causing his fork to hit the plate with a loud clank. We should have sent them back but, the wine was good and we wanted to maintain the lazy, conversational mood so, he just ate the cauliflower. Problem #2 and, in my book the far bigger problem, no one on the staff could give us a smile. We're genial people, out for a pleasant afternoon meal. We smiled when we arrived and at staffers with whom we made incidental eye contact but no one smiled back. I understand that everyone might not have been having as glorious a day as we were having but, the restaurant wasn't busy, all was mellow, there didn't seem to be any ongoing crises and smiles are free to give! The dour looks on everyone's faces came off as, at best, snooty and unpleasant. We'll go back again. I don't judge any restaurant on a single experience. But, at this point, Three Stars.

    Peter, Thanks for sharing your experience & providing valuable feedback. We appreciate your input, which helps us improve. We're pleased you enjoyed the Butter Board & the Warm Mushroom Salad with scallops. We genuinely apologize for the issues during your visit. We always strive for high-quality dishes & regret that the meatballs were dry, falling short of our standards. Your feedback will assist us in addressing this. The lack of smiles from our staff is a concern we take seriously. We're dedicated to welcoming atmosphere & fell short during your visit. We'll address this with our team to ensure all guests receive the friendly service they deserve. We're grateful you're open to giving us another chance. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to serve you again. Best regards, Aaron AGM

    Food was really delicious this time around (we eat there occasionally and it wavers between good and great - this time was great); our server, Lexie (sp?) was one of the best servers we’ve met in a long time. Aside from being friendly and helpful, she was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and wine selections and steered us in the right direction. Really enjoyed the meal and she was key.

    Meat and cheese board skimpy and no tool to cut meat and cheese. We struggled cutting the meats and cheese with our butter knife so we could share. The bruschetta was not flavorful except for the basil on top. Could not even find the honey. One pat of butter for a basket of bread is not enough. Bread was warm and tasty. Our meals were very skimpy on pasta and all pasta dishes were short on sauce. We added chicken to two dishes and chicken was over cooked, dry, thin, and a very small portion. Four bites worth of protein. The flavors were good. We had mixed drinks and martinis. They were good. We had one glass of wine and it was 3 sips. We were seated near the kitchen and the noise level was so loud that we could not hear each other talk. When I made the reservations there was a section for special requests. I asked for a surprise dessert for my daughters birthday and waitress had no knowledge of the request.

    Our server was terrific. Attentive but never trying to hurry us. I requested a quiet table but was seated directly under the speaker. The music was louder than the guests. In the future I’ll ask for the seating across the room. Couldn’t hear the conversation. Our cheese tray was tasty but the server that brought it to the table was in a hurry so we didn’t know what the cheese and meat were. The water glasses were always filled. My bolognese pasta was delicious. All diners liked their choices from the flatiron steaks to the salmon. It was very busy and noisy in the restaurant. No fault, just fact.

    We had a wonderful experience at Onesto. We went on a Wednesday at 4:15 so we were able to find parking right outside the entrance and were the first people in the dining room. Anthony was our server and was by far the best server we’ve had in our last 20+ meals out. I had the cosmo specialty drink which was delicious. I had the scallops entree and my Mom had the Branzino entree and they were both absolutely amazing. We made a note to definitely come back again.

    While the food was delicious, the service was quite bad. Our actual server was friendly but was totally rushing us, even insisted on taking our order when one of our guests wasn’t at the table to order. Another server/manager rolled her eyes at us when she couldn’t discern which entree was “medium” and which wasn’t; and when offering fresh ground pepper she came up behind my husband and poked him in the back with the pepper mill to get his attention, rather than simply using her words. Unbelievable.

    The food here is absolutely wonderful and beautifully presented. The only reason I didn’t give the food a 5 star rating is due to the portion size. The portions are very small. We ordered a couple appetizers and all were really enough for one person, maybe two. My pasta was delicious but I added a side of meatballs to it, they were about the size of a walnut. I was shocked at the charge for these 2 tiny meatballs. If it weren’t for the delicious bread basket a few people in my group would’ve left hungry. However, the service was excellent, the wine was delicious and the ambience was lovely.

    Very good, some of the best pasta in MKE! Broadway view reservation adds a bit of privacy to your night.

    Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted that you appreciated our upstairs seating with its fantastic Broadway view and relaxed ambiance. It's worth noting that our upstairs area is usually reserved for events and not often available for dining.

    This is excellent food and service at very reasonable prices in a cool atmosphere. The pasta and sauces are exceptional. Try the calamari appetizer and you will be asking for a jar of sauce to take home. Scallops perfectly prepared, pasta fresh and tender, meatballs simply outstanding. Absolutely love this restaurant and will drive the hour to dine here again over and over

    Wonderful restaurant! The vibe is great fun. We sat at a high top in the bar and had plenty for room. We had calamari, scallops, bronzino, lobster ravioli and carbonara at our table and everyone said it was all delicious. We shared a cheesecake afterwards and it was the creamiest, most delicious cheesecake we’ve ever had! We will return!
