Reviews for The Old Spaghetti Factory in Fullerton, CA
Place has so much old world charm and top notch customer service. It's always a pleasure visiting and so far everything I've... ordered has tasted amazing. Update 9/3/22...went back for our yearly visit to remember our fallen father and the service wasless than pleasant, also my breast of chicken fettuccine Alfredo was decent, but the chicken seemed like it was heated up frozenchunks and the bread loaf they served us was soggy in the bottom.

Now, I'm fairly certain I've been to an Old Spaghetti Factory when I was younger, but I have no recolection of it. I tend to... check the menu ahead of time since I am plant based. I'm not a huge fan of restaurant salads, so I need to know I have an optionor two. I did this and had pre-emptively chosen the Mushroom Sauce for a spaghetti pasta meal. We arrived to the restaurant andit does give an "old timey" feel. We walked through and towards the huge Trolley inside the restaurant. And that's where we wereseated. It was a bit silly, but somehow goes with the restaurants theme. Staff was friendly and we received our foodquickly. Unfortutanely, I just won't be back. The sauce was so flavorless and it seems the mushrooms were an afterthoguht justthrown in. My nephew thought his food was "just okay" as well. Read more
My favorite spot to have a semi-fancy dinner. Usually come here on my birthday every year, but will stop by with my family every... once and a while. Awesome staff, clean tables and the smell of an old Train Depot makes this spot one of a kind. A lot ofhistory here as well which adds to the dinner experience. Check out the White Clam sauce noodles or the Crab Ravioli which neverdisappoint. Highly recommend these as they are my go to dinner selections. Stop and check em out parking can be a bit tough butbe patient traffic moves quick around here. Read more
Been coming here for years. I love the food. But they MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE EVERY TIME! They bring the salads out and then 3... minutes later they bring the main course. I appreciate quick service, but why do they only give me 3 minutes to eat a fullsalad? Here is the thing, I ALWAYS TELL THEM TO GIVE ME AT LEAST 10 MINUTES TO EAT MY SALAD BEFORE THEY BRING THE MAIN COURSE. BUT THEY NEVER LISTEN! FRUSTRATING! Look at my attached photo and you can see I have only eaten 1/2 my salad and the dinner isnow getting cold. Read more
Great service, but food wise portions were small, felt like a kids meal, maybe it’s just Togo thing? Small dish of pasta, and... came with one small scoop of Ice cream and a small salad. All $20…. Limited options for vegan/vegetarian You can do Marinarasauce with no meat or Alfredo sauce both were plain sauce, no veggies. My pasta didn’t have enough sauce on it either Veganfood reviews in OC ????IG/TIKTOK: thatfoodthooo Read more
Great food. I haven't been here since I was a kid growing up in Fullerton. The service overall could have been a bit better but... I am sure that is due to low staffing. All in all it was a great place to celebrate my birthday. Can't wait to return! Read more
Location:Good, Parking:Okay, Service:Good, Food Served:Okay, Overall: to be honest this was one of my Aunt's favorite places to... eat. With her passing, we came to eat in her honor. I have been to other Spaghetti Factory s in other cities and can say eventho the recipes are the same the cooks can make or break the meals. So I choose a cheese spaghetti with brown butter sauce. Thenoodles were covered in a dry cheese blend and I really did not see any butter sauce on the dish. The server was asked about itand brought out some brown butter sauce. It did not help that much but I did manage to eat the meal. Now the sad thing g is thatthe party I was with were also unhappy with their meals but did not say until after we left. Would I go back to this particularFactory? Maybe once more to see if the meals served today were just an error and not the norm...I know none of my party willreturn.. Read more
Quick less than 10 minute wait on a holiday. Very nice service. Incredibly good drink and food. My cocktail was a blackberry... "tea" and one of the best I have ever had. The minestrone was lovely. The chicken Marsala was super tasty. Plenty of sourdoughbread accompanied dinner. The Spumoni was so good that it was eaten before a single picture was taken. Read more
