Onesta - Pizza Paradise!

"I asked for Pizza, not your opinion" :D
Very few people in the world dont love pizza, its everyone's comfort food after all. Bengaluru has a number of pizza outlets and Onesta became everyone's favorite pizza joint within a few months of their launch in Koramanagala. Beautifully decorated interiors, lip smacking pizzas and courteous service is what attracted almost all age groups to enjoy their food! 
Just yesterday, they launched their new outlet in none other that Indiranagar! Location wise it's one of the best choices, it's situated near the old puma showroom in indiranagar, so if you're coming from Sony signal take a right from KFC signal, about 200 meters after you'll see the outlet. And what's best? It's a rooftop! 
I was invited here for the launch with a couple of other foodies and I couldn't stop admiring the pretty interiors for the entire evening. It's way bigger than the Koramangala outlet with pretty flowers pots decorated on the walls, light bulbs dangling from the ceiling and a soothing overall ambiance. The seating arrangements are rustic brown furniture, comfortable and perfect to enjoy your pizza! 



We ordered all the varieties of starters available on the menu and a few mojito/fizz to go along 
Chicken in Barbeque sauce - loved the preparation, authentic Barbeque sauce flavour and juicy chicken. 
Fish with tartar dip - Crispy fried fish fingers with a creamy tartar dip, perfect snack. Love the way the fish was cooked. 
Potato wedges and French fries came with a slight drizzle of mayo sauce sprinkled with herbs, I didn't like the Mayo taste but overall it was cooked well. 
Sun dried tomato bruschetta and broccoli cheese bruschetta were something which the vegetarians loved! 
All the drinks were soda based and very refreshing. A special mention to the orange and mint cooler, I loved it! 
Coming to the pizzas, we ordered 
Wasabi mayo chicken - a bit dry for my taste, I expected Mayo to be oozing out but there was no sign of Mayo, I didn't like it. 
Chicken with pineapples n jalapeño - my favourite amongst all, melting cheese and the pineapple with jalapeño tastes so good! 
Bulls eye - running egg yolk on a pizza, specialityn of Onesta and tastes good too. 
Margherita - plain cheese pizza. 
3 cheese mushroom - cheesy pizza topped with basil and mushroom. Too good! 
Mexican veggie - most colourful pizza with veggies on a bed of cheese. Tastes good. 
Sweet corn - seemed a little dry to me but taste wise is fine. 
Prawn pesto - big juice prawn cooked in a spicy marinade, the base of pizza has pesto. I felt the pesto was a tad bit too much, but the combination was unique. 

There was a lamb lasagne, which was cheesy with minced lamb accompanied with garlic bread and fresh veggies. A good dish but the lamb stuffing lacked spice, though the lasagna was cooked to perfection with generous amount of cheese. 

Onesta is also known for their variety of desserts which are tiny in size but so yummy! We tried all the desserts available on their menu. I don't quite remember all their names, there was caramel walnut tart, fresh fruit cake, chocolate cake, coffee mousse, chocolate mousse, strawberry with cream, lemon mousse, Black Forest pudding and tiramisu. Others I don't quite remember the names! 
My personal favourites were the fruit cake and the walnut tart, tiny yet so yummy and well made. The presentation of all the desserts are too cute. 



 

Pricing is extremely justified according to the portion and the quality of pizzas. Some people might feel that the service is slightly slow but that's only because they prepare everything fresh on orders. All the breads are prepared fresh and no wonder they taste so good with that garlic butter! Mmm! 
Overall, we had a wonderful evening especially because of the beautiful set up and the rooftop ambience. The staff was extremely courteous and all you Onesta lovers there's a new location you can go and eat those unlimited pizzas!
