The Old Spaghetti Factory closed in Tukwila so when we moved to Gig Harbor, I was happy to find this Old Spaghetti Factory in Tacoma. The food, the service, the atmosphere, and the experience were all as good as I remembered. Over the years, I think I have been to 10 Old Spaghetti Factory restaurants in different cities and the experience is consistently good.
September 2025
Warm and inviting atmosphere. It's a very cozy place! The prices weren't exorbitant or outrageous. My son and his wife hosted their wedding rehearsal dinner in the banquet room and the staff was exceptional. The food was fantastically flavorful and it came in a large portion.
August 2025
This place is amazing and the servers are always so nice! This is definitely our go to restaurant for affordable, delicious food in a fine dining, family friendly place! Definitely not Olive Garden in the best of ways!
