The Old Spaghetti Factory (Downtown Edmonton) in Edmonton

Went here for a company Christmas party. It was okay. Food was okay

Simply the best. Excellent food, service and value. Couldnt be better.

An excellent space to stop in for lunch or supper, the quality of the food is great!

Great place, really good value.

Always enjoyable Fair pricing

What i thought was going to be a Italian Restaurant, turned out to be less than expected. I found that the food was very under seasoned or bland, the bread was warm and delicious, but as for the apps and dinner not so much, I was going for more of a romantic night for a birthday dinner ended up feeling like I was at Dennys. The reviews and photos steered my thoughts in thinking it was more in that direction but ended up upset about the overall experience, staff was polite and nice but did get the drinks wrong a few times but corrected them. I dont think I would come back unfortunately. Wheelchair accessibility: No lots of stairs

Excellent service and food!

Great food and and Alex was a great server Kid-friendliness: Had a birthday for a 3 year old in the street car she loved it. Food : 4/5 |

We never received our drinks. This is a minor issue and one I would normally overlook, if it werent for the 18% Autogratuity. I truly believe that a gratuity should be optional and given freely based on the quality of service, and it ruins an otherwise relatively positive experience when a forced gratuity is charged despite service being lackluster. If it is not optional, then it needs to be rolled in to the price of the meal. I would also question the ethics behind the surprise forced gratuity considering (a) its not mentioned anywhere on their website which is what we were required to order from, and (b) the phrase Its All Included is mentioned seven separate times. Clearly not. Edit: in response to your response, there isnt much more detail to provide. Probably the easiest way to prevent future surprises is to add information about the 18% Autogratuity to your website. I still disagree with it, but at least if its advertised properly no one can complain about it.

I have been to many Old Spaghetti Factorys in Alberta and 1 in BC - Micheal was our server this evening, amazing service, no wonder he has been doing this for so many years!

The prices are great!! So much value for your money. Loved it!

Always love going to this location. Even at their busiest time, their service is still up to par. Great food to boot

Fun to go to. Food and atmosphere were great.

Very exceptional service, multiple times. The management team definitely goes above and beyond to make sure their customers are satisfied.

Greay place to eat, reasonably prices

Dietary restrictions: Good Gluten-free Menu! Food

The Best Restaurant in Edmonton! The waiter Michael is so nice & the Italian food is Delicious. The inside is really nice lots of antique things & there s a streetcar inside that you can eat in amazing restaurant 5 Stars!

Served us raw chicken, apologized and offered to take care of our bill when we showed the staff. Later brought us the bill and told us it was only a small part that was raw.

Ive been coming here for over 24 years now. Started off with dates with my girl to family meals. Every time is an amazing time. Stewart was our server this evening, and he was incredible. Couldnt have had a better evening. Kid-friendliness: Stewart was awesome with our children. Highly recommend.

Great food. Great service. I recommend the steak and the ribs. Both were amazing.

The food is really outstanding, and the service is excellent!

We always eat there when we are in town.

Good food with big portions. Downtown location close to all of the events. I would recommend.

We are customers of many years and always have the Penne with chicken for lunch. We were disappointed to see today that there was barely any chicken in the dish which was small cubes and taste processed. Hopefully you will return to the chicken used before. Thanks.

AMAZING SERVICE went for my moms bday and the lady taking our order was very nice, got our food pretty quickly Parking: free parking in the evenings

Very good on busy day

This place is amazing and we love Michael! If you need somewhere to go for cheap and good vibes highly recommend!

Good food, fair prices. The service was amazing, but took quite some time (not blaming the server here). Love their its all included thing, you get a salad or a soup and a nice scoop of ice cream.

Stefan is such a good waiter! The food was amazing and he was went above and beyond to make sure I left happy! I think others should take note of how he takes care of his customers! I like to tip generously and it s so nice when people give you a reason to:) Vegetarian options: The french onion soup, and the spaghetti with impossible meatballs are the main things I order. So yummy:)

Great fun, we sat on the Trolly with our grandson

My oh my what a find! My kid finally lived out into his own apartment and I could see an old heritage building from his balcony that had the old spaghetti factory logo on the side of the large brick building. We just happened to be hungry! What a gem for the atmosphere here, very one of a kind! The food was cooked well and the portions are perfect. Service was decent enough although our server didnt bring us everything we were supposed to get in the all included menu such as all of our bread and when we asked for another he said ok and just never brought another one back with him. And with our spumoni ice cream we were supposed to get coffee and we didnt. So that aspect could use some improvement on the service side. But all in all, great experience and love the location itself. And where else are you going to go for a 3 course steak dinner for 26 bucks ??? Was worth every penny. 3 ppl are, and had a couple drinks and it was 82 dollars before tip, thats great value!

My favorite spaghetti place I always come here for a nice budget dinner

Cant wait to go back again

Rave to Braden for being an amazing server! Great meal! Will be returning soon!

Great place to bring the family. Friendly staff good service and great food.

Long time patron, worked there in the 80s. Had a large party family event. So well taken care of. Thanks.

Wow!! Great location, great food and atmosphere

Great customer service... ordered 2 different kinds of pasta was it was OK... Clam chowder was tasty.. Service

Food was amazing! Lunch specials are also great! Great food, good price, right amount of portion, and was served very quick! Food

The staff aim to please. We requested the train car and they made it happen. My kids who are 11 and 14 loved the vintage atmosphere and the novelty of our seating. There was a mix-up and it took a long time to place our order but they made it right! There was a sincere apology and complimentary drinks. Thank you for looking after us! Well be back. Kid-friendliness: Fun, vintage atmosphere. Great selection of non-alcoholic fancy drinks. Ice cream included.

my favourite place to eat in the entire city. delicious. great service.

I love this place, great food combined with great service is a winner for me

Sara was a wonderful server! Very attentive and always smiling! Thank you for such amazing service!

Old Spaghetti factory gets 5 stars. Ive lived downtown since 2021 and Old spaghetti factory has become a standard I love to visit a few times a month. Today I went to 2 fast food restaurants downtown Wayback Burgers and Seoul Fried Chicken both places failed to serve me. As soon as I walked into Old Spaghetti factory I was greeted and told a 15 minute wait for a table. I was seated well before 15 minutes and instantly served by a wonderful waiter. Bread came quickly. Drink came quickly also. I put in my order for clam chowder and Chicken Parmigiana and from my point of view there was little to no wait for the food and it came out delicious. Lots of restaurants downtown should take notes from Old Spaghetti factory for wonderful service and the efficiency of getting food to the customer. Tonight was busier because of the Metallica concert and it still didnt phase the staff. Thank you for saving my dinner experience tonight! I will certainly be back!

Grandsons 15th birthday dinner, 7 people in attendance. The service...excellent, the food..more than excellent , the atmosphere was just perfect and relaxing. This place always knocks it out of the park.

Service is always great, even when the place is slammed. Sound carries a lot in the old building so if you dont do well with a lot of background noise best to go on a slow night. Always delicious and great value.

Adorable, awesome building and atmosphere. Its in the old Boardwalk Building. They have an Old Bus inside! SERIOUSLY! This place is too COO! The food is very Good. My favourite is the Burnt Butter and Mizratha Cheese (I think that is the spelling) Spaghetti. Love this stuff. It comes with coffee, salad or soup, and a dessert. Prices are unbelievably low. Only caution, book reservations on a game night or event night at Rogers. Otherwise, you may not get parking or even in. This place is awesome and has been around for a long time. If you havent been, its time to go. It is worth the experience of very nice and interesting ambiance and good people. Wheelchair accessibility: No, it is not. There are a bunch of stairs at the entrance. I am not aware of any other entrance into the building. Before attempting to go to the restaurant, maybe call ahead and, confirm this while making your reservation

I loved it, they was a good services and the food was exellente, good place for familly, i realy liked it

Friendly & very attentive service. Food is always great!

All the staff were super friendly and helpful, Adrien was especially good as our server and I promised him I would leave a 5 star review. If youre his boss, send him his flowers on Slack! Ive dined at much more exclusive places which can learn a lot from how well this place operates. Our food was brought promptly and well timed, everything was delicious and the cheesecake was to die for. Highly recommended

My favourite restaurant! The amount of food, the price and the service is all un matched!

Anyone who comes here knows what they usually get - after all, it is one of the branches of the famous chain: a delicious Italian meal including a starter (salad or minestrone), dessert in the form of a scoop of ice cream and tea or coffee to finish. The whole thing is served in a rustic atmosphere and at a great price/performance ratio. Gladly again.

I found them to be quite receptive for takeout orders. They are very pleasant.

Its a great atmosphere with good food and friendly service. Good choice for the family and meals are reasonably priced. Serving sizes have shrunk over the years, but still reasonable. Parking: $7.50 to $11.50 to park nearby.

Many years between visits, and good to see the decor hasnt changed, different staff, and the food is still tasty! Definitely recomend the spaghetti and meatballs, with provolone and parmesian cheeses! As well, the bread loaf was warm, melting the creamed garlic butter, and the minestrone soup and Caesar salad were fantastic! Our server was friendly, professional and respectful of the fact that me and my son havent been there in a while! Will definitely be back next time Im in Edmonton! Parking: Strip of free 2 hour parking in front of restaurant Kid-friendliness: What kid doesnt like spaghetti?

Awesome Birthday!

Just as always a great family restaurant. Been going there forever Kid-friendliness: Just a great place for families. They do really well in accommodating familiez with small children Food : 5/5 |

Kid-friendliness: Good Food

Fettuccine con Pollo, marry me. I have such fond memories over the last two decades of coming here with friends and family. This location is the best, hands down.

Our host was too good shoutout to Ken !!! Food was really good..

Great, great service!

Food and service great as always.

Delicious The spaghetti is a bit bland, but its still worth eating. Onion soup is delicious

Always good... Hunters chicken is my favorite.

First time there very lovely dining

Give 5 stars because they keep the reasonable price in the post-pandemic inflation era. The foods are always good.

I thought it was super tasty and cool. Like the last visit, great

Amazing. Beat cheesecake around

One of my all time favourite places to go as a child, and still is to this day. Recently went there with some family for my graduation and the food us exactly the same as if I was eating it 12 years ago. Definitely one of the best places to.est downtown Edmonton. Kid-friendliness: They have many dishes that are suited towards children, I mean Ive eaten here as a child and definitely loved it.

Very good!

Amazing is the only word comes in my mind

Came here for a team dinner, everyone enjoyed their meals! Servers were great to take care of our large group. We enjoyed the course style meal and the dessert was delicious.

I havent been to the Old Spaghetti Factory in YEARS. The familiarity felt so good. The service was delightful, the food was so good, and fair prices. Still a nice treat to get the spumoni ice cream for dessert. I missed you Old Spaghetti Factory.

This is my favorite place for a celebration dinner or a nice time out especially for a great price! I love the decor and atmosphere. My favorite dishes are the chicken penne, marscapone mushroom ravioli, and the mizithra spaghetti. Everything is good! I just love how everything is included with dinner especially the spumoni ice cream. Been here so many times and cant wait to be back!

I sure miss this restaurant. This was a good one. Boston pizza was a good one. Sad we no longer have these to enjoy. Y all should make it good like it once was

Very reasonably priced meals & beverages. For the price, the food is really pretty good. Really great value! - on par with other restaurants of this franchise. The service was great!

Everything was great again. Only problem we should have made a reservation as we have done in the past we had to wait for 40 minutes as we only arrived in Edmonton that evening. Having said that, it indicates how good the restaurant and staff are.

We usually go to the old spaghetti factory every couple of months. This location is not the easiest to get to being downtown, but this is expected. The food is always great. I got the chicken parm and it was cooked perfectly. My wife got the steak, and it was cooked to her specifications. I am an absolute glutton for the bread and garlic spread. Love that these meals come with starters and deserts.

Had a nice meal after the hockey game.

Good food withan excellent price point still

I love The Old Spaghetti Factory, the food is delicious, the staff are awesome, and the atmosphere is great. I will return, again and again. If I am going to spend my hard earned money, on a meal, it will be here. Love It!!!!!

Quick service during lunchtime

my gyatt damn noodles were sticken together in a big ball of clump and they were super hard and uncooked yuck i am not satisfied with this munch it was indeed not buss

Lovely food & ambience & staff. Worth eating here

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options Kid-friendliness: Kids menu comes with crayons. Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair friendly.

My partner and I needed a spot for dinner after arriving from Calgary. When most other places were closed, the Old Spaghetti Factory came through! We enjoyed great service and tasty food that didnt break the bank. It was the end of the day, so it was also wonderfully quiet in the restaurant.

Easy to access downtown location, fast service and overall a good dinning experience.

Been coming here for years. Staff is wonderful and its a great value for a 3 course meal. Its always a solid choice!

Very friendly staff. Excellent food as always Food

Very good food as always, service was awesome, the atmosphere was nice and quiet the new waitress did a great job in greeting my. Even though I had never met her till today, the way she approached me and called me a friend was a nice experience. I have never been approached like that before.. so awesome. Im glad to have eaten here everything was kept topped up. Highly recommend this place.

Great food and friendly service :)

Was excited to try restaurant. Manicotti tasted like it was microwaved and the sauce wasn t enjoyable. Was refunded and most likely will never return

Last few order have been great despite Skip the Dishes service. Please consider a delivery partner other than Skip the Dishes as their service is horrid. Your food is good:)

As for me, its a wonderful place with a very cozy atmosphere. Weve ordered pasta with mushrooms and onion French soup. And also we had spaghetti with meatballs and salad from the kids menu. Everything was really delicious and we liked this place. Kid-friendliness: There is a kids menu with colouring pages and different quizzes + crayons are added, too). Its a good way to entertain your kid in the beginning )

Was a good experience didn t enjoy being seated where we were but get experience and was a great value for the price

We went here tonight for my husbands birthday. Our server was Micheal and he was incredible. He was very kind and fast and really really amazing at his job. 10/10 recommend this restaurant!!

Good for a relaxing time out. Great service

The food was very bland

Everything was almost OK - but nothing more than that. I was not asked if I want more bread, and I had to ask bread. The meat ball were too tough. The ice cream desert was very small. Still for this price for dinner and a fair service Ill let it go with 4 stars; I wish there was a 3.5 option. Vegetarian options: Its all included with meat balls is a vegetarian option.

When we arrived there were a few empty tables while they said wait 45 min So rude and unethical On the other hand people were blocking the entrance was extremely rude as well Service : 1/5

I m writing this review sitting in the restaurant, and have had an unbelievably experience in the best way. The bread was fresh and we had multiple servings, the starters were warm and very good. I definitely recommend the French onion soup, the mains were great. Any issues we had were dealt with fast and efficiently. The management and services named Sara was phenomenal!

Favorite place to eat downtown!

Just the best downtown for 50 years, food pricing the Old Spagoo never disappoints thanks Kelvin and staff

Its still one of my favorite places to go for my birthday! Ive been going since I was about 10 years old to this downtown location. Growing up, it was such a treat, and visiting again to celebrate with family hasnt changed in 35-plus years. Traditionally, I ordered the same thing, the lasagna, but this time, I changed it up and had the Manicotti - and wasnt disappointed at all. Was so good. Also tried the clam chowder soup for a change of pace. So good! I still bring home a portion of my main course, because after you fill up on bread, enjoy the included soup, and save room for ice cream (which is included in your meal as well) I am too full to ever finish my meal. Had a lovely time again, in such a pleasant atmosphere and of course as always the service was exceptional. whether its with friends or family, celebrating an occasion, or in choosing a quiet and quaint place for date night, I highly recommend this place still.

Good food reasonable price. The place is rustic looking, but very well maintained. My wife and I both commented on how clean the place was. Carpet was older but spotless.

Had outstanding service from a very nice gentleman(unfortunately cannot remember his name). I had the butter and cheese pasta and cannot recommend it enough; it s delicious. My only complaint is that I had made a reservation, and while there were many other available tables, we were seated at the table right where the servers put the dirty dishes. There was the constant noise of clanging dishes and it was hard to ignore. Other than that, we had a great time.

The food wasnt good at all but the price wasnt bad. I like the decoration and atmosphere.

It was excellent. The insistence on leaving the table while we drank our last beer and wine deducted one star. I am a fan of Old Spaghetti Factory in all its provinces. My dish is chicken alfredo mascarpone cheese ravioli, super recommended

Love this place! Never a disappointment, and server Michael has always been the bestest . Price, food and value is always great and I will continue to go there as often as I can

We had an incredible experience at this restaurant. They were able to accommodate our party of 40 people on a very busy Friday night. On arrival the area was all set up for us and servers ready!! The service was friendly, efficient and attentive to our needs. They were very experienced with team meals and worked so hard to meet every need and ask. Calvin the manager was so great and really knows how to lead his team. We were all very impressed with every detail. Well done Calvin and team. Next time we are in Edmonton, everyone has already requested that we go back!

Upon entering, you are greeted with freshly baked bread, setting a delightful and unique tone as you await your main course. The food itself does not disappoint; I opted for the meatballs, finding the accompanying spaghetti and sauce to be truly delectable. Additionally, the staffs kindness and politeness further enhanced the dining experience.

Such a great experience. My only real complaint is that that I feel as the spaghetti with meatballs could use an additional two meatballs.

Cozy and very affordable place to dine. So love the steak.

Delious food close to Rexal stadium

Told them we were celebrating our anniversary and they surprised us with cake for our dessert. Loved the ambience and the staff. Food was amazing as always.

This was my the 1st visit here for my wife and I and everything was so much better than we anticipated. Every aspect of our visit was extraordinary. Our waitress was on spot with the service even given how busy it was on an Oilers game night. The food was simply outstanding. Steak was cooked to perfection. The salad, calamari, sweet potato fries and the fresh baked bread was all outstanding. Highly recommend this establishment and also recommend a reservation if you are visiting on a game night.

We had a fantastic dinner there! Great value and service for a lot price. The portion sizes even looked bigger than the West Edmonton mall location

Parking is not ideal. However food is absolutely delicious.

This has been a family place since my children were small, especially the one downtown. There may be more authentic Italian around, but it s reasonable, and the atmosphere bustling and cheery. If you re going downtown make sure there isn t an Oilers game on. Parking can be tough then.

Absolutly love the browned butter spaghetti with mizithra cheese , as well as the bam bam shrimp are to die for

Came down after an Oilers game, and got sat down right away, our food came so fast, that we didn t have time to talk about the whole game lol, definitely the shortest restaurant visit I ve ever done, that s not a bad thing, it was just really fast getting our food.

Good place for food

Old Spaghetti Factory is always a win for hearty, good food for a very reasonable price. The bread was delicious as usual. Both my partner and I opted for the French onion soup to start and it was nothing to complain about. My partner had the Chicken Compollo and I had Linguine with Clams. We both had leftovers. We thought our dishes were fine, but did notice the recipes had changed since our last visit. We both got large portions of dessert that we could not finish. It was my partners birthday and they gave us a gift card for our next visit! We will definitely be back.

Handled our group of 16 with no issue, waiter was very patient with the 8 kids as well. Food is always good and you know what you get every single time you go.

Good food, love the fresh bread. The waiter was polite patient and fast. The prices were very reasonable. There were 8 of us. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free items on menue

Yummy! Great service.

Was perfect. Food is delcious.

Couldnt get to go to the restaurant. Not accessible with the street closures and i already deal with mobility issues.

I love OSF and Ive been a patron of this restaurant chain since 2002 or so. Its my all-time favourite place to have a nice sit down dinner at. Their food and service are fantastic and that they have complimentary bread and an appetizer always ensures youll never feel like your money wasnt worth it. Plus that scoop of spumoni at the end, amazing!!

Because of the pushy 2h limit it wasnt as enjoyable for an expensive occasion...

Yesterday, me and my family celebrated our Valentine s Day here and everything was fantastic. Beautiful place to eat, delicious food and excellent service. Kudos to our server May who is super nice, patient and did an amazing job! She s one of our favorite server!!! Thank you OSF for making our valentine s extra special and memorable!! Me and my family will surely be back. One of our favorite restaurant now here in downtown!

Food is great bang for your buck. It s not crazy authentic or flavourful but it is warm and comforting. The French onion soup is a little salty so I would get the salad or minestrone next time. The fettuccine con pollo was nice. The service was really great and made the experience that much better! Shoutout to the servers!

Our family had a small birthday party dinner for me and my father here. It was great. Parking wasnt easy to find, I suggest the parkade across the street to save time and make things simple.

Absolutely a gem of a restaurant! Incredible service, amazing food, and so quick! Great idea for a nice evening, or pasta craving, or both.

We popped in on December 23. The restaurant was very busy, but they werent anticipating so many customers. Despite only having one server for the whole restaurant, the service was amazing, as was the food. We will definitely be back simply because our experience was so perfect!

I picked up the tab. Plus a $30 Tip. Then i got ripped off by them making me pay twice.. An to top it off it took almost a half hr to try settle things. Manager told me things got corrected. But my bank account says it wasnt. Dont go here if if you dont want to get ripped off Food

Really great place to eat! The meal includes

We had a small group lunch and it was surprisingly good and great value. I have been working downtown for over 8 years but never had a chance to visit this restaurant. Great atmosphere! The lunch portion is bigger than what I expected. I order the classic spaghetti with meatballs. Comes with bread, soup or salad, and ice cream. Would definitely revisit.

The Old Spaghetti Factory offers good food at a great price! Meals include salad or soup, bread and ice cream and with pasta dishes under $20 you can feed the family without breaking the bank. Perfectly situated in the Edmonton Ice District, The Old Spaghetti Factory is the perfect dining location with the family before the night out. Highly Recommended!!!

This place on 103rd has been open for over 50 years. Our server has worked here for over 30. Exceptional value and clean and a place I dine at with special friends! Its all included!!!!

Its still fun

Very friendly staff (one helped me charge my dying phone), reasonable priced food with good portions, and good quality and delicious. Wheelchair accessibility: There are stairs at the entrance. Doesnt seem accessible for wheelchairs.

Classic staple of great food and good prices. Ive gone to old spaghetti factories around the world and they all deliver the same high quality good and service. The atmosphere inside is always delightful if you like vintage decor and curiosities. Their fettuccine Alfredo is my favorite, but any dish here will not disappoint Kid-friendliness: A great place for families as they have kid menu options available

Perfect vibe and excellent services made me feel comfortable and relaxed, love the soups.

Just awesome everything

We took our daughter out for her birthday to this amazing restaurant, we were able to find vegan options. The staff was amazing and the food was fantastic. We will definitely be back, this place is so charming.

They have some great gluten free options and take it fairly seriously.

Parking kinda tuff to get. but great place to eat downtown

Going there for 30 years. Good service good food

Came here more out of necessity than by choice. Unfortunately, it was disappointing. Although the service and atmosphere were nice, the food was barely passable.

Great steak, perfectly medium rare, every time. I dont know better value for the money.

Good food. Reasonably priced. Wasnt to busy on a Thursday with a hockey game that night.

One of the best Restaurant in Edmonton. Very delicious & everyone is very friendly. Love it here!

Michael was an attentive server. The food was great at a reasonable price. Excellent pre-game choice before the record breaking win-streak was continued against the Kraken! Food : 5/5

Great value and good service. Atmosphere hasnt changed since 1970. Like stepping back in time. Try to get seated in tram car for unique experience.

Excellent service, antique but cozy atmosphere and wonderful food!

We reserved a lunch meeting for staff & some clients. The food & atmosphere was great. Our server Emma was AMAZING! We really appreciated her attention to our table! Thank you for a wonderful experience Emma!

Love the Old Spaghetti Factory in Edmonton. Food and service are always awesome. Sherilyn provides spectacular service. Efficient and friendly!

Very busy during hockey game nights, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Our waiter went above and beyond, he noticed that one of our group had an problem with his meal before he even had a chance to bring it up. The meal was corrected cheerfully. I saw the very busy staff serving everyone very well. The food was very good, and is an exceptional value for the money. Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp located in the rear of the building. Go up to the hostess or call before going and they can direct you to where it is at

Have loved the Spag since high school a few decades ago. Food still tastes awesome. The downtown location is still better than wem location. Staff were really great, we were a large group and each order was already separated for each person from the start. All our food items came at the same time. Impressed. I realized after that the gentleman who seated us was Kelvin, I knew him as an acquaintance back a few decades, should have said hi, but I wasnt fully sure it was him. So if he sees it, hi to Kelvin

Just an incredible establishment.
