This was a great restaurant to hang out in after a long day at the convention center. We’ll lit and lots of tables.

The food was decent, service was efficient. The building is really cool and there’s a loft bar/lounge that is probably the most interesting thing about this location.

This is our 1st time at Old Spaghetti Factory and we loved it! The entire atmosphere is intimate with an old luxury vibes. Now let’s get to the food. My wife’s had the pasta with wine cream sauce and marinara with mushrooms. I enjoyed the classic lasagna which was delicious! They offer a 3 course soup salad option, entree and a scoop of ice cream for dessert. Jessie was professional and brought our meal out to us in style and fashion! This restaurant is located in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter so there are tons of other places to check out

Good value, simple concept meal. I had never heard of this chain until I visited here and only stumbled across it without looking. Very busy and reservations are advised but they do accept walk-ins, however you’ll likely be waiting for a time especially at busy times. A busy place is a good sign somewhere is good. Being very critical, it is basic pasta after all but for a downtown major place the prices are exceptional value. I do recommend this place. Restrooms are clean and seating is spread out across different levels, with some seating having small booths and others with open plan tables. Located moments from a street car stop with links straight to Santa Fe Depot. Great for families for being very child friendly, with drawing menus and good for adults too.

I really enjoyed the venue. It was a really nice place to eat dinner. The food was simple and not really that flavourful, but it was fine for the price. Everything comes as a three course meal, which I found odd. I really didn’t want a soup, but in the end it was ok. I had the meat balls which were nice, but the sauce was quite plain. My colleague had the ravioli, that looked good.

All around great experience. Food was spectacular, we were seated right away (we went for lunch) and the staff was attentive for the most part. Got a little more hectic as it got closer to the dinner rush.

First off the food was awesome! Took 20 minutes but ok. We had a reservation and still waited 20 minutes. Between the salad and the meal took 20 minutes. Overall we spent 2 hours here. Expensive but worth it if you just want the experience.
