We had such a great dinner experience with Angela as our server. She was so attentive and would bring us what we needed before even having to ask. She was incredibly kind to my 6 year old and went out of her way to make her experience positive as well. It’s been a long time since I’ve been here and I was impressed with the quality of the meal and the portions were so big, we ate it the next night too! Considering the great meal and the exceptional service Angela provided, I’m already planning my next visit.

We had a wonderful experience at this East Side Mario’s! We drove from Toronto especially for this location because it is reminiscent of the original setting of the restaurant, before the changes to the decor. The staff was amazing. Jayna was attentive, cheerful and genuine. She elevated our experience with her authentic desire to make us feel welcomed and cared for. Thank you, Jayna!

Drove an hour to go to the unmodified location in Coburg and it did not disappoint! Kristen is a great server and the atmosphere was perfectly nostalgic. I hope they never renovate to the new, soulless ESM decor; this is a millennial childhood landmark! 🍅
