- DCdawn ClarkeOct 26, 20254.0We hadn’t been in this restaurant in about 2 years, the inside is looking very worn out and in desperate need of some repairs/updating. The food was good, big portions and everything was hot , fresh and tasted great! Our server Debra was amazing, very attentive with a great personality. We will definitely come back here because of the excellent service we received.
- MRMaryAnne ReidOct 23, 20254.0My husband and I went to dinner at East sides, we didn’t have to wait for a table, we were seated immediately. Our server (Amanda) was prompt once we were seated, she was pleasant and smiling, asked what we would like to drink. Our order was taken and we didn’t wait too long at all. Amanda was attentive and checked on us several times asking if she could get us anything else, if the food was to our liking etc…. It was an overall lovely experience, thanks to an excellent server. We will be back!
