The Old Spaghetti Factory

This place is one of the worst I have EVER visited. You need a magnifying glass to find the chicken on the chicken fettuccine and when you find it the pieces are little cubes that are smaller than sugar cubes and very salty. The place smelled like SEWAGE how can they think anyone would want to dine there. This restaurant alone can make you change your mind of going to Chesterfield again. Do not waste your money nor gas.

ABSOLUTE WASTE OF MONEY! Everything was BLAND. Milkshake was not a shake at all, more like a smoothie that melted and separated the ice from the flavoring packet they used. Brown salad. Unseasoned noodles and chicken. Sauce tasted canned. Best part of the meal was the vanilla ice cream which still had chunks of ice in it from being freezer burnt. Very sad! Asked for utensils and did not recieve any which is now understandable since I should not have eaten the food at all.

Not a pleasant experience. To begin, we were sat directly by the kitchen. When I asked the “manager” to be moved elsewhere she lied and said the other table was reserved for 5:30. One hour passed no one ever sat there. Service was mediocre to say the least. Other tables stayed dirty for a while despite the restaurant not being busy. The online menu is NOT what is offered at the restaurant, not the mention, they only offer ONE lousy appetizer which is cheese bread. In addition, the menu advertised that all entrees come with warm bread. We ordered two entrees and received one bread. Don’t get me started on the Caesar salad that tasted like air. Atleast the water was good.

We came here to eat before going to the outlet mall. There was no line and plenty of space between tables. I had lasagna and my granddaughter had 1/2 mizithra & 1/2 meat sauce spaghetti. My wife had a salad & broccoli. I like the fresh baked bread and it all came out in a very timely manner. We choose 1 vanilla & 1 spumoni ice cream as dessert. Our waitress was great and we had 2 managers check on us. It was a good choice today

It's not overly complicated, but it's really good simple food. We had been before but tonight was even better. I love garlic sauces so I got the garlic mizithra, which I had never heard of. It's amazing. Very rich and the mizithra cheese is great, I'd never heard of it before. We got a breast of parmesan chicken to share and it was a great add-on for the price. It goes great with the mizithra when the seasonings in the chicken and marinara sauce meet the taste of the garlicky pasta. Caesar salad was very good as well, and the salad, bread and dessert are all included with a meal for no extra cost. Nobody does a value like that anymore. We got a half canteen of sangria, and it was good. Pretty simple but a good drink. Good price for 2 servings. We'll be back mainly for the value proposition.

As a chain restaurant, it offers all the obligatory Italian dishes but nothing extraordinary. Everything tastes good, and it's pretty fast unless it's peak dining time. The little trolley dining area is kind of fun, so knock yourself out there. Very pleasant ambiance, and the dinners come with salad and ice cream at a reasonable price. Overall it's pretty good food for a good value. It's tough to be a highly rated chain Italian restaurant in St. Louis when there are so many outstanding Italian restaurants on the Hill.

I understand Covid has a lot of business not rating many businesses to par, however, tonight was a true disappointment. The evening started with a 50 min wait to be seated. The “Caesar”salad came out as a bagged garden mix with Caesar dressing on it, and a few croutons. The garden salad can out with bagged garden mix and dressing nothing else on it. The spaghetti tasted bland. The service was mediocre. Was not worth the price or my time. My family and I will not be going back for a long while.
