East Side Mario's - Calgary

I have eaten there twice in the last two months and I was very lucky to have a server by the name of Deborah. The first time I had her she had an amazing attitude and exceptional service! I had her again today and honestly she is consistently good at her job and very personable. The food is the same as it always is and is pretty good but the service from Deborah makes this place so much better so if you get a chance and you can be served by Deborah I suggest you go.

I am a little disappointed that they no longer have the Little Kids/Big Kids menu split because that was handy, but the restaurant is still friendly, still generous with their food, the hot bread still plentiful, and still tastes really good.It was enough food that we had to take away leftovers. The shrimp scampi was amazing, with the perfect bite and a lot of butter, and the steak and parm fries was excellent. Note that parm fries are not done to crispy.They were doing the fresh grated parmesan at the table, which I took what felt like unfair advantage of (you mean I can have this on my soup AND make my parm fries extra extra parmy?)Note that to get the attention of wait staff, you have to honk a horn. My kids were good about it, but maybe you don't want to sit too near it!Thanks to Dona, our server.

Fatima was a wonderful server. The food was tasty. Portions we generous everyone was very happy with service here today. We had nine people at the table and was served very well. Thank you

Great service, good food, great people. Fatima remembered me from last year serving me on my birthday aswell. She is a great individual and always positive and very welcoming. Thank you for the great service hopefully see you again in the following week.Kid-friendliness: Welcoming to everyone and getting along with the families as well as the children and providing their needs
