After ESM closed at the Falls, we found the one at St. Catharines and the one at Burlington in the Mall and ate at either one of these depending where we were at the time. Most of the time we just drove to St. Catharines from Falls. Well....taking into account your diligent work, we will continue enjoying ESM at St. Catharines!!! Thank you once again! Drafty,

We had thoughts the other day of trying the East Side Marios at the 'Ramada' and I went online to check the menu. Prices seemed high, so I compared them against the ESM in St.Catharines (I was actually very surprised that prices were listed on their sites, most restaurants in Niagara Falls don't for obvious reasons). Anyway, here is a sampling of prices, with NF first and St.C second: Tettrazizi -$19.99 $15.49 Cappelletti - $19.99 $13.99 Veal Parmigiana - $24.99 $17.99 Half Chicken - $17.99 $12.99 Striploin - $28.99 $20.99 I was not only flabergasted, but downright enraged that this kind of outrageous exploitation is taking place. I don't understand how the franchiser (Prime Restaurants in this case) allows this kind of blatant ripoff to happen. I knew it was happening in Niagara Falls, but didn't realize that it was this drastic. Is there any wonder why people who live here go out of town to eat?

This friend also said that the Minolta Tower dropped the brand a couple of months ago.

When did it change brands? Also, how do you know about the Capri? I'm by there every day and there has been lots of work going on, but no sign (figuratively or literally) of what it's going to end up as. Did I miss an announcement?

It is a Ramada" Strange that the former Ramada on Lundy's Lane still has no signs of life. And the other former Ramada, the Minolta Tower, is now just the Tower Hotel. On another note, I see that the former Capri is going to be reserected as a pizza place. “The Falls Plaza Hotel now has a brand. It is a Ramada”

I check in on what's going on in Niagara Falls daily (ok...multiple times day!!). I'm sorry to hear that you're under the weather. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery now that you've got the diagnosis and some meds. Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that your site is one that I look forward to reading daily.
