East Side Mario's 651 Terry Fox Dr, Kanata Italian • $$

We were a party of 4 and arrived to a line up. We were told it would be approximately a 30 minute wait but we were seated in less than 10 minutes. So far so good.

Then we met our server, Afton, and our visit got much better. She was pleasant, accommodating, efficient, answered all of many questions with a smile. Nothing was too much to ask. We all agreed that she was one of the best servers we had ever met, and weez old so we know what what weez talking about!

The food was fresh, plentiful, and served hot with a 😃.

It is so true that one person can make or break a night. We were fortunate and are grateful for our experience.

Without a doubt we will be back and we sincerely hope we get to see Afton again!”

“My group and I hit up Crazy Horse Bar and Grill tonight and let me tell you, it was a time! First off, the atmosphere is very lively and real. Not like those fake, chain-restaurant vibes, but actual people there having a good time.

We were served by Nick, who was super chill. He knew the menu well, and wasn't afraid to give his honest opinion on what to order. Most of my group went with the special prime rib, but I went with his recommendation, the prime grilled cheese, and wow!

It was a little loud and the wait time on the food was a bit long, but the drinks were solid, the music was good, and the overall setting was just what we needed after a long week. If you're looking for a place with good food, good drinks, and a genuine, no BS atmosphere, Crazy Horse is the spot.”

She loved the idea that you could build your own bowl and went for the All the Veggies. she especially like the Vegan Baked Zucchini cakes. Myself I got the Spicy lamb Meatballs. Our meals were excellent. She loved it. Told me it was much better than the Cheese or Vegetarian pizza she normally gets on these days and that'll become our goto place on Wednesdays (another day she does not eat meat) and Fridays. Place suits us both as we both can have what we want and eat healthy. She was especially happy with the Staff who were courteous and helpful with explanations and suggestions. Now, if you add some sort of fish to the menu, she'll be in Heaven :P Highly Recommend the place.”

“This review comes from an Uber eats order I made.

Heres what i ordered:
Pad Thai, shrimp; "very" spicy and "extra sauce".

And, it's what I got. I'd say the spice level on their most spicy option is like a medium spice, just FYI. For me, it's perfect as it doesn't take away from the eating experience, it's spicy but, you get the full flavor of the sauce and it's delicious.

Loved what I got. Thank you to the team!”

“The food was really good and fresh, and our order came out fast, which was great.
The only weird part was the service — the servers didn’t seem very friendly and didn’t smile at all, which made the atmosphere feel a bit uncomfortable.
Overall though, the food was worth it. I’d still recommend this place and would come back again.”

East Side Mario's 651 Terry Fox Dr, Kanata Italian • $$

“We just left here and the first thing I did when I arrived home was to sit down to write this review.

We were a party of 4 and arrived to a line up. We were told it would be approximately a 30 minute wait but we were seated in less than 10 minutes. So far so good.

Then we met our server, Afton, and our visit got much better. She was pleasant, accommodating, efficient, answered all of many questions with a smile. Nothing was too much to ask. We all agreed that she was one of the best servers we had ever met, and weez old so we know what what weez talking about!

The food was fresh, plentiful, and served hot with a 😃.

It is so true that one person can make or break a night. We were fortunate and are grateful for our experience.

Without a doubt we will be back and we sincerely hope we get to see Afton again!”

“Visited for a patio dinner on a Saturday evening. Good menu, clean venue, wait staff pleasant, food was good! But I have to point out a major faux-pas. I ordered the deep fried cheesecake for dessert. It was supposed to come with strawberry and chocolate sauce & whip cream. They were out of strawberry sauce but didn't mention it when I ordered and so was not given the option to choose something else. Another restaurant runner dropped it off with NO toppings whatsoever... I thought the toppings might come after, but after a while ate it as it was (it was good but would have been so much better with even only one of the toppings) Finally when our bill came, we mentioned that the dessert had no toppings. We were told the waitress was new and didn't realize.... I get that... but what I wasn't expecting was that we still had to pay full price for the dessert---no discount, no other offer. That was very disappointing service... I suppose I could have complained or asked to speak to a "manager" but at that point just really wanted to leave. Because everything else about the restaurant was good---and so happy it's even Canadian---we will return... hoping for a better experience”

Every time we visit kanata location, Simran gives us the most welcoming smiles, and prepare our orders exactly as want them (or better) and make us feel so welcomed, and everything taste better if you are happy.

“It was close to closing time, and the place was fairly busy - most tables were occupied, but a few were always empty. I ordered the GBC avocado toast for $16, a hot chocolate for $3, and the pancake stack was $17 (with an option to upgrade). The cheese on my toast wasn’t melted - it was basically cold, which wasn’t great and would have tasted much better if warm. Our waitress was clearly very busy and seemed rushed, and I had to remind her about my drink, which wasn’t served with the meal as requested, but it wasn’t a big issue. There are only two washrooms(women/men), but each one only has a single cabinet, so women will likely wait in line like I did, and the washroom itself is tiny (I’ve never seen such a small sink). Overall, the food was alright, and I recommend this place”
