I always say I come to Eastside Mario's for the tomatoe soup ( which is amazing) , but now I say I come for the soup and Michael lol. This waiter goes above and beyond his job. Always friendly, knowledgeable and very attentive. I give the restaurant 5 stars but I will give his service a million stars. You guys are very lucky to have him. He has a passion that you don't see much around these days. Keep up the wonderful attitude Michael, people are seeing you. Fantastic service as always.

Went to dine in a while ago and there was a huge wait at lunch. There were lots of empty tables. We asked if we could sit at one while we wait and was told no. We had two elderly people with us. Just today tried to order a calzone for lunch and was told they’re not available. It’s pizza dough, pepperoni and sauce…you’re out of those ingredients? Come on…

Had a great visit. Our server was Mike. We have had him before and was very pleased with his service. Knowledgeable and down to earth dude. The atmosphere was great, I think we had the best booth in the place. We will be going back soon.
