    Worst experience I’ve had yet waiter took forever to take our order only to abandon us for the rest of the night to the point another waiter had to bring our food cold after it sat at the window for 10 minutes never got our bread or soup refilled or our drinks refilled didn’t see him till he finally brought the bill without asking if we wanted dessert or anything never checked on us once even after trying to flag him down multiple times

    Had the best meal since I arrived to Saint John 2 years ago. Tried several restaurants and always very disappointed. East Side was fabulous, great food , came out piping hot, our waiter was attentive and very pleasant. I will definitely be back. Thanks for a great meal at a good price.

    Our food was delicous, very tasty and hot. Our waiter was a man named Harth and was excellent and very attentive. Such an asset to your establishment. We will be back.

    We came in tonight for a birthday dinner of 4. Harth was our waiter this evening. Harth's service was absolutely top notch. He was very friendly, helpful and willing to help any way possible.

    Had a good meal with my family, Our meal was on a minimum 30min delay to quote our server "the kitchen didn't prioritize having clean pans". Our server went above by using the robot delivery after my son asked if he could see the robot. The meal portions were what you should expect for the price range having had plenty to bring home. Overall a positive experience and I would try it a second time, however if the parking lot looks busy I'd recommend a different location.
