    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We came to celebrate our anniversary at East Side Mario’s and it was perfect! The food was absolutely amazing — fresh, flavourful, and served hot. A special shout-out to our server, Jovelyn, who was truly excellent. She was warm, attentive, and made the whole evening feel extra special. Thank you for helping make our anniversary such a wonderful experience!

    My family had an amazing experience at Mario’s thanks to our server, Dona. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we sat down. She anticipated everything we needed before we even had to ask, and her warm personality really added to the whole dining experience. The food was delicious as always, but it was Dona’s outstanding service that truly made the evening memorable. She’s professional, efficient, and clearly takes pride in what she does. We’ll definitely be asking for her next time!

    Had lunch with my husband at Mario‘s. No wait. Dona, our waitress, arrived quickly. 5 minutes after we ordered the föbread and salad arrived. Bread was warm and the butter melted on it. Take the extra Parmesan if you ordered the garden salad, makes it even better. I ordered the Canadian Calzone. It was loaded with yummy mushrooms, salami, bacon and cheese. My hubby had the chicken parm with noodles. The potion size was large. Chicken was tender and sauce on the noodles was good. Dona provided great service. Refilling drinks and clearing dishes was quick. She was very friendly.

    Very disappointed in the service i received. Very long wait times, waiting 20-30 minutes (no exaggeration) to order and to get our bill. Server seems extremely understaffed and overwhelmed. This looks very bad on East Side mario’s part. There needs to be some sort of organization for overfilling a servers section. Coming from a former server who has lots of patience, this is not okay. Food was tasteless and the server never came around to check on us once. We were missing soups, salads, and drinks. We come for the bread and never got a refill on it. Currently writing this as we are STILL waiting for the bill, very disappointed and will not be coming back.

    Where do I start!? Lack of service! Took about 10-15 min for even someone to great us at the table. She took our order, food took FOREVER only for the order to be wrong. At this point we were done with this place. The food that we did get to the table was cold, soggy and just plan gross. And the sad part is, not a single sorry from their management team. I couldn't even tell you who out server was, cause there was someone different every time but the one who ended our time there she was great- sorry I didn't tip you!! But when you have had a horrible experience, there nothing left with my gratitude!!
