Perfect spot to have lunch after my son had surgery at Doernbechers. It was close by, the service was great, and the food was yummy. They have a great selection for gluten free and it is right on the waterfront. The building is also really cool.
Consistently delicious food, fun atmosphere (river view!), excellent service, and reasonable prices. What's not to love?!
I attended a luncheon today for Regence BCBSO and would like to compliment your staff for the wonderful service they supplied. The staff was friendly, helpful, and worked very hard to please everyone. You should be very proud of them. Job well done staff. The food was excellent also. Thanks for an excellent day.
Not very good spaghetti sauce, again. Good service.
This is the best Old Spaghetti Factory. The location and building are amazing--they could easily turn it into a five-star fine dining establishment with exorbitant prices. Instead, they serve their standard fare of Italian food at prices similar to those of a gourmet burger joint. The food is basic, but still tastes good, and you get a large serving. And nothing beats finishing off your dining experience with Spumoni ice cream, that comes with every meal. I also highly recommend getting the bacon garlic cheese bread as an appetizer--yum!
This is my all time favorite place to go, I hadn't been there in 15 years due to a move out of state it was just as good as it was 15 years ago everything was just as nice and the service was great!
Yummm!!! We even drive out of the way and across a state to go to OSF!!!
Food has really gone down hill in the last several years since I was there last.
Unfortunately for the staff, my friend was very picky. They were patient and accommodating. The food? Really good
The downtown spot is literally their flagship location. Highly recommended
Everything was tasty with really friendly staff. Great service.
Spaghetti factory just knows how to do it. Food is always good and service is always with a smile. Family favorite place for sure
Great family restaurant, nice atmosphere and excellent service
Great food and outstanding service. There is always room in the parking lot. The dining is open yet still gives you a private feel and there is always great waterfront views
High class, great dining next to the river, the food is always outstanding! Must get a bit busy because they tend to forget small requests, no big deal though
Always love spending time there, good food, great service and Beautiful building.
Always great for a pasta dinner. Great bread with every meal. This location has great Willamette River views from most tables, looking out at Ross Island.
They made accommodations for my group of 10 to have a meeting in a private area. They cave us plenty of time to meet, then we ordered lunch. They did separate checks for us.
Nice setting, great atmosphere, food was fantastic.
We go at least annually for someone's birthday and always have a great time. There a favorite pasta for everyone, great bread and salads. They do a nice little birthday salute too. And spumoni for desserts. Very nice path along the river to walk off some of your dinner too.
Food OK, service OK. Clean and very over priced for portion sizes.
I ate here last night and enjoyed the 'Famous Lasagna' I would go back
Good place to eat. They have offer the same menu for the past several years. Maybe close to 20 now. It gets old after a while.
Went here for a birthday party. Loved the decor, location, and beautiful flower displays at the entrance. Service was good. Meal was okay. We'd go again for the setting!
I like this place a lot however it's no longer a good value and they took away my favorite dish the half spaghetti half raviolis.
Good food and a fair price. I love the pesto ranch and spumoni icecream.
A beautiful building. Decent Italian dishes. Meals include a small dish of ice cream at the end. Plenty of parking. The prices, though, are way under what you would expect. I'm not sure how they've managed to stay inflation-proof, but I like it.
Atmosphere was enchanting, however, the food could use some work..
Food was kind of expensive and not much I could eat because I'm allergic to chicken and don't like begging meals
Good prices and service, but the food always makes me ill
Wonderful food, wonderful view, wonderful prices...... What a Wonderful place to go to eat....Yum, Yum, Yum !!
Great food, called ahead for setting and was seated within 5 min of arrival.
Now that Tacoma and Seattle's OSF's are gone/moved, this is the only one I go to. It's a great restaurant with the same great Italian menu, consistently good food, and friendly service, at fair prices. I'm glad they haven't done away with this one!
Nostalgia at its best. Americana at its most beautiful. And in these uncertain times, who does not need Pasta!
The food is first class, the service was first class, and a river view... Could not ask for better...
Horrible service, bland food long wait. It really is a factory.
Went there for a going away Dinner. Service was great, food was just how I remembered it as a kid. Called in a reservation of 13 people no problems. I'd come back. It was a fun time. Drinks were good too! Nice view and saw a double rainbow.
My family has been going here to celebrate big events for years! The food is always wonderful, this location by the river is perfect, and the staff is always helpful and professional- even with our group of 15+!
Great atmosphere, I love the decor! That alone is worth the trip. With booths that have bedpost like seating and velvet chairs thru-out. I enjoyed clam sauce on pasta. It came with a salad and ice cream for dessert. Family atmosphere.
Not worth your time.
Poor service. We will not be back. We brought our son here after a visit to Doernbecker (having his blood checked. 2 years cancer free, a big night! We asked them to do something small. The manager said she would do a candle and maybe even have some staff sing.
They did NOTHING as in NOT A THING! Disappointing and clearly my fault for imposing.
The server was nothing special the food was good. The kids menu offered a good value. Issues with service included: we couldn't get a second loaf of bread (one loaf for 5 people), my wife and I had ice tea. 4 packets of sugar on the table when asking for more sugar the server brought 3 packets literally 3 packets (evidently some shortage of sugar packets exists here and I seem to use to much of it), getting a refill was challenging to the point that I received only one, water never arrived (we requested it twice).
The place was busy with no real wait to be seated. It was poor form for me to impose while they handled a moderate crowd they must have been completely overwhelmed though 1/4 of the place was still empty. Clearly my fault that I received such poor service as I did chose to take my family here. I won't return I suggest you avoid the place. The server received a mediocre tip as his actions demanded. I phoned the manager to thank her for doing nothing at all. she apologized in a normal mechanical fashion.
After posting a review on Yelp I was contacted by the so called general manager. He presumed to say he understood cause he has kids too. Clearly the same thing watching your son almost die to a disease and having children. He said he wanted to do something for me. I gave them my personal address and said I prefer a note from the owners acknowledging the issues at our visit. A month later and guess what, NOTHING just like the night of our dinner. They cannot even provide a simple note. What a horrible place. Why offer something to not deliver. Why say yes to people then do nothing. I assume this was to hide this poor treatment from the owners. I would be ashamed to call myself a manager working at this place. Support families with cancer and stay away. Support families and stay away. Support small local business that value your patronage and stay away from this corporate monster.
I love the place and I love the food specially pasta with clam sauce.
This Restaurant sits along the Beautiful Willamette River with gorgeous views! They serve some wonderful Italian dishes. I've enjoyed eating here for many, many years. Excellent service and quality food. I love the architecture of this restaurant inside and out. They also take reservations.
This is the one to go to, avoid the Hillsboro location.
Great food. Great prices and quality. Beautiful restaurant with a view. Favorite restaurant in Portland
Love the Old Spaghetti Factory, have always had a great meal
This is a wonderful establishment that I've been enjoying for over 30 years. Took my daughter to this location last weekend and we had a wonderful dinner with great foot, attentive and capable service all for around $50. We showed up on a Friday night, at 6:00; it was busy but and were seated immediately with a great view of the river! For the life of me, I cannot imagine why anyone would rate this restaurant lower than five stars. Keep up the great work folks!
Excellent service and high quality food at a good price. Best dinner deal I have had in a while .
The restaurant is next to the river and has beautiful view all around. The food are delicious and excellent services. I highly recommend this place.
Service could be better. Server didn't really come check on us. I had to chase her down for a refill.
The food is delicious and prices are very reasonable. There can be a wait during busy times. If with adults only, the bar is a great option. The full menu is available, and the cocktails are excellent.
Delivery never showed up. The delivery person back to get an explanation why it hadn't arrived and to maybe provide better directions if the person was lost. Told me there was nothing he could do and that he didn't care pretty much. Never again.
I give it 5 stars because they've been doing the same thing for so long they've perfected it.
Great place! The path outside along the river is beautiful!
Was my first time there. My wife and I Took our nephew there for his 5th birthday. they got us up in the trolley for dinner and they let us bring our own cake. Then came up brought him ice cream and sang happy birthday to him. They where super nice and friendly. Will be going back a lot more.
Beautiful restaurant with very good food and fair price.
Interesting and clever decor. Ask to be seated in the viewing room. Restaurant sits right on the Willamette River.
Coffee arrived luke warm. Entree appeared 2 minutes after we were served our soup. They offered to take our dinner back to stay under the warming lamps, but hey who wants that? So I couldn't enjoy my soup.
The knife they bring you to cut your bread is a cross between a butter knife and a steak knife. Extremely difficult to use on fresh bread. Best to just tear in apart like the Italians do.
The waitress tried her best, brought us fresh coffee an extra loaf of bread to take home and a soup container
Beautiful facility, window seating with lively river view, standard Spaghetti Factory fare.
Nice place! Also has gluten free options that are ok. Not the best gf food I ve eaten but it is always nice to find places that accommodate for food allergies.
Had a nice experience here. Service was excellent with reasonably priced menu items.
Great family friendly restaurant. Servers and staff are friendly and happy. And a balloon twister was going around making balloon creations for kids.
It was the fanciest place I ever eaten at. The food was good too.
Always good food and good service. A little expensive for what you get, but it's good.
