    The service was great, the food was presented well and tasted above average. I was surprised to see that the menu did not have several of the Italian dishes you might expect. No lasagna or chicken parmigiana on the menu. Two of my favorites that I enjoy.

    Our family had a very good time at Onesto before the Christmas at the Ward event. The host recommended food for our son that he devoured. The waiter was very attentive and friendly.

    Onesto - you never disappoint- thank you. This was my first holiday luncheon with you. The seafood bisque soup of the day was perhaps the best in town! The warm mushroom salad such a nice option. Wonderful!

    Our service was fantastic!! With our gluten and dairy allergies our choices were somewhat limited. But the chef and staff did the best they could to accommodate. Short Ribs and Scallops were delicious.
