I had to make a trip to Tacoma with friends the other day so we stopped at the Spaghetti Factory for lunch. I personally an not a spaghetti fan, so I went for the spinach raviolis instead, which were quite good. The salad... (more)

there are no words to describe the grossness of this place. Over the years it has always has bad food and service as it has been a magnet for waiters and cooks fired from other places like IHOP and Denny's. Often you will... (more)

Usually I have always rated Old Spaghetti Factory with high marks, but not today. On a recent visit with a large party, we had an awful wait staff. We were seated quicker than normal, but the service was horrible. They... (more)

The Old Spaghetti Factory is not at all like what the name might imply - it's in no way resembling a factory at all. On the contrary, it's in a beautiful, historic old building with chandeliers and Victorian... (more)

I can't see how someone would say anything negative about the OLF!! They are awesome. Yes, I agree the wait is long, but you get good food: unlimited bread, salad, your meal and ice cream all for one low price. The OSF is... (more)

I for some reason I get fooled again and again to try The Old Spaghetti Factory one more time. I was fortunate to have the Lynnwood site open a couple of years ago. Thinking, no more drives to downtown. But Wait Wait Wait... (more)

We love this place when we want a fun and inexpensive place to take our kids. They love the Italian sodas and the never ending bread loaves. They serve the usual "american" style pasta dishes and we've never been... (more)
