" A hidden gem! Some people might overlook The Old Spaghetti Factory for more modern spots, but it has its unique charm. I loved the history behind the decor, and the food was pretty solid overall. I have to recommend the spumoni ice cream that comes with the meal—it's a lovely addition. I'll definitely be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every visit is a delightful throwback. The Old Spaghetti Factory has consistency in its menu, and I appreciate that! I tried the ravioli this time, and it was scrumptious! The portion sizes are more than enough. The ambiance is what keeps bringing me back, but a touch of creativity in the menu wouldn't hurt. All in all, a solid choice! I will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner with friends at The Old Spaghetti Factory last weekend, and it was a robust experience. The atmosphere, filled with vintage charm, set the mood beautifully. I had the fettuccine Alfredo, and it was delicious and creamy. The freshness of each ingredient definitely stood out. The wait time for food was reasonable, but I noticed the place could get crowded. I would recommend making reservations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dining experience at The Old Spaghetti Factory was decent but left something to be desired. The decor is genuinely charming, and the three-course setup is quite inviting. However, the marinara sauce I had lacked a punch and tasted a bit too sweet for my liking. Service was good, but I do think some minor tweaks in the dishes could heighten the overall flavor profiles. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to The Old Spaghetti Factory many times, and while I enjoy the ambiance, the food quality can be a mixed bag. I've had amazing pasta and a few disappointing meals. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, making up for any food inconsistencies I've experienced in the past. Overall, it's still a fun place to dine. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Old Spaghetti Factory has a uniqueness that I adore. However, the food did not live up to the setting entirely. My pasta was slightly overcooked, which knocked its score down. The good news was that the complementary bread was fresh and warm. A notable aspect was how friendly the staff were, and I appreciated their attentiveness. Next time I'm hoping for a bit more flavor from my dish. " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to celebrate my son's 10th birthday at The Old Spaghetti Factory, and we had a great time! The interior decor made a lasting impression on us all. Everybody enjoyed their meals—I had the meat sauce spaghetti, which was flavorful. My nephew was in heaven with the dessert. Finally, the servers were professional and loved interacting with the kids, which was heartwarming. " (*Curated Review*)
