East Side Mario's Kanata

I usually have such a fantastic experience at this location.. tonight not as much. Though service was great and the manager was attentive, and considerate, the food itself was a bit of a letdown. Overall though I had a good time.

All-you-can-eat pasta is a good deal when hungry for carbs. Toppings/vegetables are extra, but who needs those when you can choose a salad starter? Love the bread. Always consistent - you know what you're getting. Service was fast.

We always seem to get the most amazing service here. The food is fresh and delicious. What's not to love.

This was the first time we had gone to this restaurant. We went there for a promotion. Apparently they have several and you cannot mix them in one order, so we we picked the one that is pick a meal, then get another meal you can take home. The sever was patient, cheerful and knowledgeable. She helped us in explaining what several of the meals were. The meal includes bread and a choice of soup or salad. When the food came it was hot and delicious. The portions are large, so you'll likely be taking a doggie bag home with you. They also have TVs to watch sports channels. In all, a very pleasant experience.
