East Side Mario's

Only a few gluten free options available, but the food was delicious . Wish they had some GF soups!

This afternoon I went here with my fiancee for a nice lunch date. Upon arrival I immediately noticed how cold the air was as well as no one waiting for us to be seated. I then see that theres a clown horn I have to push in order to alert someone I have arrived, despite 3 employees in the back looking at me and going back to chatting with one another (work related or not pls proritize customer. Espescially if its regarding training). Once approached by an employee, I requested a booth and the gentleman seating us made it obviously clear that hed rather be anywhere but here seating us. Once seated we were quickly werved drinks and appetizers. However food cannot stay at appropriate eating temperatures due to how cold the restaurant was. I ordered the 3 cheese ravioli which was enjoyable despite the underripe still green unchewable tomatoes. The arugula gives a nice bite through the smooth sauce unfortunately it too had raw stems. It is a dish with some potential. A hearty serving of 6 (3 inch raviolis) and mighty flavors within the light sauce. I also entertained the thought of trying a new drink and ordered their Violet Iced Tea Lemonade which did not disappoint in the slightest. Their unlimited appetizers left room for disappointment unfortunately. For the price of things; a less processed crouton would be more appropriate. Lastly I would like to take note of their approach regarding gluten. If you're allergic no charge. If its a preference there is a charge. Dissecting peoples diseases shouldnt be a goal of a restaurant/food establishment. Server was very friendly and social making the ending of our lunch pleasurable experience.
