We go to East Side Mario’s often, so I’m honestly really sad to say that this location was just not it 😭 We’ve been to multiple locations in Hamilton and Windsor, and we’ve always had great experiences, so while we were visiting our extended family in Toronto, we thought it would be nice to take everyone here. Unfortunately, this was by far our worst experience.
This review is from Sunday, August 16 around 4 PM. There were 9 of us. When we arrived, the staff member at the door asked if we had a reservation. We said no and asked if we needed one because the restaurant was visibly very quiet. There were literally only two other tables occupied. She responded, “We would prefer if you guys had made a reservation,” and then showed us to our table.
Unfortunately, the table was sticky and didn’t appear to have been properly cleaned. The blinds behind us were missing pieces and were extremely dusty. Overall, the restaurant just looked like it needed some TLC.
Then came the bread. For a table of 9, we were initially given only two pieces of bread while waiting for our meals. When we asked for more, our server handed us a paperbag with bread inside 😭 We literally had to take it out of the bag ourselves.
We obviously didn’t mind taking the bread out ourselves, but after dining at East Side Mario’s so many times, this was just such a strange experience. We know what the service is normally like at other locations, and this simply wasn’t the standard we’re used to. Especially considering that our party of 9 was automatically subject to an 18% gratuity, it was disappointing to experience service like this.
And then, while three of us were still clearly finishing our meals, the server came over and asked, “Should I get the bill now?” We looked at each other and said, “Sure!” 😂
The entire experience just felt incredibly rushed, almost as though they wanted us out of the restaurant as quickly as possible, even though the restaurant was practically empty.
I want to emphasize that we have been to East Side Mario’s many times at other locations and have never experienced anything like this. That’s why this visit was particularly disappointing.
Unfortunately, we won’t be returning to this location. I really hope management takes this feedback seriously because the difference between this location and the other East Side Mario’s locations we’ve visited was huge.

We got a table and waited about 15 minutes for a server to take the order. We got our drinks after another 15 wait. Since we ordered an appetizer, we wanted that first, but got the salad and soup ahead of the appetizer.. The soup was good, salad seemed old and wilted. We had to wait again for a long time for the appetizer, which tasted ok, and then at least 30 minutes for the main. Only after telling them, if it will not be served now, to cancel.
Very poor service!!

I also want to give a special mention to Rose (I hope I have her name right!) — the tall blonde server who will be working a little less once she starts school in September.
Rose has only served me once, but she has served my 11-year-old son several times and clearly made a big impression on him. When I finally had her as my server, I understood why. Her service was excellent, but what stood out most was her kindness and attentiveness.
She remembered my son, made him feel special, and even when we weren’t in her section, she came over just to say hello and recalled details from previous conversations. That kind of genuine warmth really can’t be taught.
Rose is not just a great server — she’s a truly kind person, and those small gestures meant a lot to my son. ❤️
I hope management knows what a gem they have in Rose, and I wish her all the best as she heads back to school in September!!

This place has won my heart in terms of hospitality. I went to this place on a Friday night and ordered -
1. Linguine Chicken Tetrazzini
2. BYO Pasta - Bowtie - Rose + Veggies
With tomato soup and caesar salad.
Both the sides comes with "All you can eat" deal.
On the top of it they keep serving garlic breads for the table. We were full even before our actual dish was served.
We were served by Ms Tori and she was patient and helpful with the suggestions. It has a nice bar style decor with patios as well. The Washrooms were also clean.
Overall an amazing experience from my side.

Great service. The waiter has ordered the grill chicken wrap instead of crsipy chicken wrap for us. He apologized and asked us to take the wrong order home free. That is excellent service and solution. For that, i will be back again. Customer first attribute should be welcome and i appreciated the service and food. The all you can eat soup , salad and loaf is a bargain although i could only try three soups. I highly recommed this place.
