Had a margarita pizza and it was really tasty. The garlic knots are great too. What I do want to shout out is the exceptional team work that I noticed tonight, everyone was working hard to make sure everyone was taken care of. Thanks for the excellent service and food!

I don’t typically make reviews, but I saw a video on instagram reels and decided to give this place a chance. The garlic knots were some of the most addictive things I’ve ever had in my life. The lasagna was great and cheesy, a little too much sauce but still absolutely delicious. I wish we got dessert but we were stuffed. I am mainly making this review to give a shout out to our server. I didn’t catch his name but he was running around like crazy- definitely the best service we’ve had by a long shot. Our visit was 6/28 at 6:15pm, we sat inside in the right side room at a middle table for 2. I just want to make sure he gets the recognition he deserves.

We went on a Friday night. We were told it was gonna be a 30 minute wait, waited about 10 minutes and got some drinks inside at the bar. We got a strawberry sangria on special. 10 minute 10 into our way, we were seated outside on the patio. Ample patio seating, and they work quick to get you water.

They brought garlic knots, complementary, which are amazing and fresh. Probably one of my favorite things about the place. We got a house salad with their house dressing, it was super fresh and very good.

The food comes super quick, even though it was made to order. We split the rigatoni, and got the pesto pizza (14 inch). The rigatoni had great flavor, lots of peppers and a good portion. Since we were splitting, it was plenty. We ate all about one piece of the pesto, pizza, great flavor, great crust, hot and fresh as well.

Our service was excellent. Our server, Mikael, was super attentive, fun and gave us a great night. We will be back for sure, no doubt. Usually, this place is bumping on a weekend, so plan ahead and be prepared to wait.

Onesto is one of our favorite places. The service is always helpful and friendly. The pizzas are large and delicious. The salads are well dressed. We ordered the Chicken Picata special tonight. The chicken was generous and juicy. There is a rotating selection of Sangrias. Happy Hour is short and sweet (4 to 5), but it's worth getting there early to grab a pitcher at half price. Onesto has a laid-back feel and is family friendly.

Sure! Here's a positive review of Onesto's in St. Louis, Missouri, that still mentions the salty risotto in a constructive way:

I recently dined at Onesto’s in St. Louis and was genuinely impressed by the warm, welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our experience was comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. The menu offers a great selection of Italian favorites, and most of the dishes we tried were absolutely delicious.

While the chef's special risotto with chicken was unfortunately too salty for my taste, I took it home and added a pound of rice.

Overall, despite the one hiccup, I had a wonderful experience and would absolutely return. The ambiance, service, and most of the food more than made up for the one dish that missed the mark. Looking forward to trying more next time!

The pomedoro sauce with the arancini is out of this world. I'd eat it like soup! Also loved the fried spinach leaves that came with the super tender calamari. Toasted ravioli was okay, on the small side.

Onesto is fabulous. We have been visiting for years, and it is always good. The pizza is really good and a large is very generously sized. They are known for their Sangria, which is constantly in rotation. All the kinds we have tried have been great. Their beer and wine selections are very good too.

Really enjoyed the food and experience here. We shared the cioppino, fettuccine, and a custom pizza. Everything was delicious and the portions were great for sharing and having leftovers. I’ll be back!

I’ve dined here a couple of times since recently moving to the neighborhood, and both service and food are always exceptional!! Joey was an incredible server this evening and food was top-notch as always!

Vegetarian options: They are able to accommodate plenty of dishes to be made vegetarian, and also offer a handful of vegetarian-friendly options already on the menu
