The Old Spaghetti Factory has a rating of 4.3 out of 5 based on over 4007 reviews on Google
Such a cool experience with a trolly inside a well preserved restaurant building with so much flair! The Food is delicious! The sauces had confidence and the spaghetti was cooked perfectly no sogg at alll! Sharing plates! Dessert was immaculate. A traditional spaghetti dinner with class. Very romantic too
Amazing atmosphere with unique and stunning surrounds! Old shoe factory reclaimed for a great restaurant. Aside from the architectural feast, the food and service are outstanding!! Ordered the Jumbo Lobster and Crab Ravioli and ordered the zero-proof Tropical Dreamsicle. Delicious!! They were accommodating to both gluten allergies (I don't have) but also offer smaller portion menus for any anyone like seniors, kids, or bariatric patients with NO HASSLE!
Excellent restaurant! This is our 2nd time eating here and it did not disappoint. Just as good as we remembered it 4 years ago. We travel to Indianapolis time to time for trade shows and when we knew we were coming back to Indy, we knew we had to eat here one night. The Chicken Parmesan was perfection. Not many can keep the crisp while adding the sauce and cheese topping, they nailed it! My wife absolutely loved the lasagna. Great flavor and perfect portion. Hopefully we'll have another reason to come to town again to have another meal here.
Simple pasta, cozy vibes. The Old Spaghetti Factory delivers exactly what you expect: a no-frills, pasta-focused menu that’s comforting and consistent. It’s not trying to reinvent Italian food—just solid classics, reasonably priced, and served in generous portions. A few years ago, I had their spaghetti and meatballs and it was exactly what I hoped for—simple, satisfying, and well-executed. More recently, I tried the garlic shrimp fettuccine, but it felt a bit plain and lacked personality. Not bad, just lacking punch if you know what I mean. The ambiance stands out: warm lighting, old-world decor, and those famously low ceilings create an intimate, almost vintage dining experience. It can feel a bit cramped during peak hours, but that’s part of the charm. A great spot if you're craving straightforward pasta in a setting that feels like a step back in time.
Wonderful restaurant! Food, service, atmosphere... this place had it all in spades! I'm definitely going to come here again if I'm ever in town!
This was my favorite restaurant during a recent 1-week trip to Indy. I started with the minestrone, which was some of the best I've ever had. My entree was the Pot Pourri, which is spaghetti with a sampling of four amazing sauces (my favorite was their famous mizithra cheese and brown butter), and I ended the meal with a delicious scoop of spumoni. I've only ever seen spumoni sliced, so the scoop was interesting presentation, but it was so good that I'd have taken it any way they chose to serve it. I can't wait to come back or visit other OSFs when I travel.
This was my first time at the Old Spaghetti Factory, and I'm so happy we chose to go here. I had never been to any of their locations so I was excited when we walked in and saw the interior. Such a neat place. The food was really good, good size portions and good prices! We had the spinach/cheese tortellini, mushroom ravioli, and lasagna. Each was part of the 3 course meal, so it came with soup/salad, the entree, bread, and a small serving of spamoni. It was very filling so of course we brought the leftovers home (hotel). I would highly recommend this place!
