The food was fantastic. We order five meatballs and the medium bucket. There were 3 of us and we had leftovers to take home. The garlic bread is amazing, the marinara was very tasty and the pasta was cooked to perfection. Also very friendly atmosphere and very clean place.The taste of the marinara took me back 40 years ago when I was a kid growing up in Cuba. For dessert we had tiramisu. The tiramisu was good but it needed more of the coffee flavor. We live in Lemars but we’ll definitely drive the 72 miles for the best spaghetti meal around this area.

This place is amazing. I never thought a place called spaghetti by the bucket would be so delicious, but it is. The staff was very friendly as well.

Did spaghetti and meatballs with cheese bread The meatballs were good, but the marinara sauce didn't do it for me, It was watery and under-seasoned. 4 of us split a family bucket, and yea, we were going through the spice rack trying to find anything to give it some character. Cheese bread: I mean we drove home with it, but it was soggy by the time we got home.
Very small Chinese buffet, small selection, the sweet and sour soup is good.

Worth stopping in. The sphagetti is delicious. The meatballs were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The pizza is top notch. The caramel gelato is unreal. Great beer selection and the staff, both front and back of house, were very friendly and outgoing. Do yourself a favor and stop in
Parking: If the front is full there is ample parking space in the back

Very friendly and helpful if it is your first time. We tried different sauces and the meat balls, and everything tasted great. The garlic bread is good and generous portions. We took home enough for supper.Not fancy, but clean and comfortable.We plan to try the pizza next time.
Kid-friendliness: They let our granddaughter try the sauce before she decided what to get.

Great place to eat! We’ve had it a couple times, once we took it home to eat and it was still delicious. This time we dined in and the service was excellent. The kids commented on how good it was many many times!

have had spaghetti, flatbread pizza and my favorite meatball sub. all good and well made with good ingredients. an oasis of good food in good food starved spencer iowa.
On a Sunday, this place was staffed by a single, incredibly overworked employee. They are undoubtedly underpaid. It's not right. Business owners like this can go straight to hell.
Amazing meatball sub and a really cool atmosphere. It is connected to axaholics next door with a bar. Great place to take the family.

Had the small bucket with 3 meat bals which was plenty and the meatballs are fantastic the sauce is very good and the garlic bread is delicious could've probably eaten a whole loaf would definitely recommend this for dinner absolutely will come back again
Owner is slowly adding new dishes, making sure the taste is correct with the best ingredients.Curbside, and drive thru service. Large portions, and willing to mix sauces.
