The service was excellent. The food was absolutely amazing. We are pretty harsh critics about food and everything we ordered was exceptional, wonderful flavors with a good amount of spice. It was just spicy enough. The environment was warm and decorated beautifully.

Onesto is a great place to walk to if you're staying in or near the 3rd ward Milwaukee. It is especially nice if you need gluten free options, which are plentiful. The vibe is so much fun with the lights outside the window and the high table top chairs and tables inside. The bar is also thoughtful in that there is no TV! People actually can hang out or just converse as they enjoy food and/or beverages. Onesto serves great Italian American food without the sticker price of downtown steakhouses. We noticed that groups can reserve space on the upper level as well. We appreciated our waiter, Anthony, who made us feel welcome!

Kendall was amazing! She took such great care of my daughter and me while we were celebrating her 16th birthday. She surprised us with a dessert and even remembered us the next day, asking how the concert went. Such a sweet and thoughtful touch that made our stay extra special!

First time dining here for both us and our friends. I was originally expecting more Mexican cuisine but was pleasantly surprised to see the menu had internationally inspired flavors. The apps (sharables) were fantastic. We had the brussel sprouts, potstickers, queso, and the most unique was the loaded hummus. Some of our party had the handhelds (tacos and similar sized street food) and some had entrees. I was super excited about my mojo pork, but the plantains were a massive let down. They were more like thick tostones, but dry and tasted like they were mass produced and previous frozen. No one else had any complaints. Drinks were enjoyable. I admire their tequila selection. Since I was driving, I was unable to try a flight. My margarita (sub mezcal) was great. My friend loved her super duper spicy jalapeño margarita. I wish they had a few more unique tequila-based cocktails to choose from. All in all we had a great time. It was laid back, and we had a really friendly and helpful server. The only slightly awkward thing was that the kitchen runner declined to clear any old plates when he was dropping the next course. He told us that it was for the server to handle. At this calibre restaurant, I think anyone serving should be capable of clearing instead of just passing that duty to someone else. We will be back!

    We had a nice time. Bella was very attentive and gave us good recommendations. We all got the hanger steak and enjoyed it however the medium rare was more on the rare side. We will be back.
