    Everything went perfect. Seated immediately, we had a reservation, bread and drinks arrived quickly. Our server was very nice. The noise level was fine, food was good. Will definitely go again.

    The food was decent. American Italian. Very busy so service wasn’t the fastest. Watched a waitress drop a napkin on the floor and set it back on a table. Also watched as the staff whipped down the chair seats then whipped down the table top with the same exact rag, no cleaning products involved. Thought it was weird and pretty unsanitary.

    All dishes were bland . Portion sizes OK. Very loud and decor seems worn out.

    This is my favourite place to eat in St. John’s. our server was kind and food was brought out extremely fast considering we were a big table. Can’t wait to go dine there again

    Service wasn’t great. Food was terrible and bland. Not the East side Mario’s I remember from when I was a kid.

    The food and drinks were great but our waiter brought all our food at the same time…soup, bread and mains. We did not even have a chance to have any salad. He did take them back and allowed us to finish our soup and order a salad but again rushed to deliver the mains. Nothing like shut up…eat…and get out. So long as you are in a rush…great place to eat and run.
