What User doesn't like about East Side Mario's:
Last visit to ESM we said we wouldn't go back. We have a young family member who is crazy for the Shirley Temple with candy floss so we had a lunch there in July. Lo and behold, food was piping hot, zucchini appetizer was amazing, AND the bathrooms were spic and span and did not smell. Big improvement over last visit! View all feedback.

East Side Mario's offers a mixed dining experience, with some customers enjoying the variety of food options and friendly service, while others found the food quality lacking and service subpar. The all-you-can-eat pasta option received lukewarm reviews due to cold pasta and lack of flavor in the Alfredo sauce. Some praised the attentive servers, while others reported careless handling of dishes and rushed service. Despite mixed opinions, the spacious restaurant and broad menu selection ensure there is something for everyone. Overall, East Side Mario's may be worth a try for families or those seeking a casual dining option.
