York University Heights​のベストイタリアンレストラン

Wonderful experience. Welcome, food and service were great. We were not rushed and well attended too. The food was outstanding, as always.

Great food, great service. The food is made with quality ingredients and the staff is very kind.

We had an incredible experience last night! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the staff was exceptionally friendly, and the food was incredibly fresh. We’ll definitely be coming back regularly!

Fantastic food and the best service! We will come again for sure.

For the last round of birthday dinners, this time with family, we decided to try East Side Mario’s. I was surprised to realize I had never been here before, despite passing by the restaurant multiple times a week. We shared Calamari al Diavolo, Mozzarella Sticks, Bruschetta Flatbread, Linguine Chicken Amatriciana, Triple Threat Parmigiana, and Mario’s Chicken Parmigiana. Overall, the food quality was surprisingly good. While the Mozzarella Sticks and pastas were slightly above standard, given the reasonable pricing and generous portions, I have no complaints. The only dish that fell short was the Bruschetta Flatbread, which tasted bland compared to the others. The Parmigianas were the highlight, especially the Triple Threat, which was a first for me. The sauces were perfectly balanced, and the chicken was prepared beautifully, earning two thumbs up. However, the star of the night was the Calamari al Diavolo. The hearty tomato broth with just the right kick of spice, combined with the peppers and calamari, made it outstanding. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind coming back just for this dish, it’s that good. If there’s a better version out there, someone needs to enlighten me. While the food was satisfying, the service left room for improvement. Our designated server was spotty, with unclear answers to our inquiries and a lack of attentiveness. Thankfully, other servers stepped in and were more accommodating, which helped salvage the experience. Despite the service hiccups, I’m glad to have discovered this place. It’s a spot where I can enjoy good food and create great memories with family.
