Annissa was wonderful, the cheese cappelletti was super dry with little sauce though. I wasn’t the only one at the table who ordered this, and our meals were much different portion sizes (mine was in a large bowl, the other was in a small bowl). Regardless of the food, which was still enjoyable, Annissa was prompt and on top of all our table’s needs :)

The waitress and staff were very friendly and accommodating.
However; I am disappointed with the meal I had.
The starter soup was salty.
My pasta was okay. Dessert was way too sweet.
My co worker had fettuccine alfredo . Her noodles were rubbery; not enough sauce( noodles soaked it up by 3rd bite) and says it was very bland. I noticed that the last few times I was there that the food has (unfortunately) really gone down hill.
The flavours seem to be inconsistent to what I know and love. I hope they aren’t cutting back on quality due to economy.

Went to Eastside Marios last night. Probably wont go anymore. It was my 2nd time at this location. The potato soup was very salty and was more like a thick porridge. Way too thick like its the bottom of the pot...not bery hot either. My lasagna was ok but the Ceasars salad was bland. Fetticini was dry and goey, overcooked. The desert brownie was way too sweet and I love sugar but it was over the top sweet, not to mention very undercooked.. My previous visit wasn't much better. It seems like there is a consistent short staff issue. It took 10 mins to be seated..10 to be served. .I.felt so bad for the server. She was doing her best but it was easy to see she was overwhelmed.
