Reviews for The Old Spaghetti Factory in Spokane, WA
Mom and I had the meat lovers treat and the rich meat sauce. Came with a loaf of fresh sourdough bread, salad and ice cream.
Worst experience ever, website didn't work for take out orders when I called to place a take out order they said they only take... them in person or on the website so I drove there and put my order in and asked the waitress to call me when it was done as Iwanted to wait in my car due to the crowd she said she would but didn't I went inside to check on it 30 minutes later to findout it had been done for a while then when I got home with it the portions were super tiny and the order was all wrong and Ididn't get the meatballs that I ordered. She even wrote them down on the ticket but she forgot to ring them in. And to top itoff one of the dishes was supposed to come with sauce and mushrooms and didn't have either just some grated cheese Read more
Sooo... The good: 1. excellent wait staff (attentive and friendly but not overbearing) 2. Love the decor: brick, paintings,... velvet furniture, chandeliers 3. The fresh baked bread and whipped butter is GD delightful, I could absolutely gorge on this 4. Anytime I've made a reservation, no matter how crowded, I get in at my reservation time. 5. The facility is completely nutfree (and for anyone with a nut allergy, this is a relief) 6. I love the menu option of having multiple sauces with my pasta. It's a great way to try new things, or mix flavors that compliment each other The Average: 1. tomato based pasta sauces tastedtinny, a true sign they are not homemade, nor long cooked, as is proper 2. The salad is literally bag mix and croutons which Idon't consider a legitimate salad, I expect tomato, cucumber, & onion at minimum (good dressing though).3. The Caesar salad is$2 more per meal and is the cheaper salad mix but with Caesar dressing. Baffling. The bad: the bathroom (male & female) is onetoilet each for a very popular packed restaurant and was quite dirty (both of them) and lacking toilet paper. This is a redflag to me for a restaurant. Staff should be ensuring your bathrooms at an eatery don't have pee on the floor and are wellstocked with toilet paper. If that is how you keep your bathroom, I become concerned about how your kitchen's cleaningstandards are. I went to Trader Joe's afterwards and their bathrooms were impeccable. No reason a grocery store should havecleaner bathrooms than a restaurant... 2. When it has been busy my food has been brought before I've even eaten half my salad(not a huge deal), and has been consistently lukewarm at best (definitely a big deal). This implies you didn't even warm myfood up properly because the kitchen was rushing, and the food here is not cheap enough for those kind of mistakes to behappening repeatedly. Overall, after giving them multiple chances, I simply will not be coming back again Read more
Super yummy! Great bread before your meal, the salad was okay, (2$) to upgrade to Caesar Salad however it’s the same salad as... the regular just different dressing lol. Fettuccine Alfredo was amazing! Also the ice cream at the end is just the cherry on top???? Read more
Very good place to eat we truly enjoyed it, our waiter was amazing and the food was very good. Everyone got what they ordered... and enjoyed what they got. The food was hot the price was average approx $100. For the 4 of us. I would recommend this place. Read more
We had reserved a room/space for a rehearsal dinner. When we first arrived we were told they only do that on the weekends?? We... were seated in the main dining room at some tables that had been pushed together. The dining room was full and obviously loudwith patrons conversing with one another. This was not going to be enjoyable for our group of 20 who were expecting a privatefunction. Someone got it figured out and we were escorted to a nice room downstairs where we received superb service by a youngman named Christian. He was affable, quick, and very efficient! Great, great service! The food was very good as well, especiallythe warm, fresh bread loaves!! All-in-all it turned out to be an excellent evening! Thank you! Read more
I had the crab ravioli, and it was all right but I've never had crab before so I didn't have anything to base it off of. The... restaurant is absolutely beautiful! I like the whole atmosphere this place offers! The salad that came with the meal was a verygenerous portion. I especially liked the Italian soda and it came with a complementary glass to have as a keepsake! And to topor all off you get ice cream for dessert after your meal! I'm definitely going to be going here on date night in the future!???? P.s. I apologize for the upside-down menu, I tried to flip the pic but it told me I couldn't edit it for some reason. Read more
Very fun to visit. We came with a reunion party and the service was great, the food was very good and the atmosphere is a lot of... fun. Definitely recommend this restaurant for a good dinner! Read more
