Hard to believe that something like spaghetti could ever really fall out of date, but pasta ain't what it used to be. With Asian noodle houses such as pho, ramen and fusion restaurants dotting the landscape now, places like this are becoming a rarity. Still, The Old Spaghetti Factory marches on.
I've been a couple times and it's never bad. The spaghetti is fairly decent, the servers are friendly and quick and for the table everything we asked for. The spaghetti itself is pretty Ho-Hum, and the place inevitably draws comparisons to East Side Mario's, but it's still a good place for what it is: family dining downtown at a decent price. I 'factory' sized my spaghetti which our server was sure I wouldn't finish, and I have to say that I don't know if this is more a reflection on what a pig I am or how small their servings are, but I will say it wasn't much of a problem at all! It's probably because I'm a pig.
Worth going to for large parties or corporate stuff. Dates and intimate gatherings night better suited for a smaller setting.
