The Old Spaghetti Factory Description

Originally a Blacksmith Shop, built in 1898, this huge old warehouse was converted into a 600 seat restaurant in 1971, filled with a fabulous collection of antiques and truly unique artifacts and is now known as the famous "Old Spaghetti Factory." This unique restaurant is complete with high ceilings, skylights, antique elevator, streetcar, gift shop, in-house bakery, numerous interesting nooks and crannies, original stained glass windows from Europe, gas lamps, a 100 year old carousel and countless other intriguing antiques and artifacts (ever dined in a streetcar or a king size bed?). And if this is not enough, add great food, affordable prices and fast and friendly service and you've got a truly entertaining and enjoyable "Dining Experience." In short, "You've gotta see it"

The Old Spaghetti Factory Reviews

My first time to this unique restaurant. Really felt like you were transported back in time. Extremely busy despite the huge size but our food was excellent and timely. And with a menu that gives you four courses and all you can eat bread for under $15 it must be the best value in the city. Not to be missed!

My first time there, firstly the interior is authentic & incredible. Service very friendly & the food delicious. We were a party of 8, & the food was prompt. Our table was all the way in the back. I definately will go back.
