Spaghetti Warehouse

I went to the spaghetti warehouse over 15 years ago the 15 layer lasagne with sausage and side salad with the buttered bread with sangria was define. I cant wait for the experience again. See you soon.

Wow, so many bad reviews, and I don’t understand why!
Ever since I was little, Spaghetti Warehouse has been a staple for my family and I. I love the atmosphere, even though it isn’t the fanciest. It’s not every day that you can sit in a railroad car and eat some great Italian food!
The bread and butter are superb. Sweet, but not too sweet. And the bread is always warm. The servers have always been polite, as well as the hostesses.
I usually get the spaghetti and meatballs when I go. Now, on Wednesdays, you can get it for around $ 8, and that comes with the soup or salad, and bread. I LOVE their sauce and meatballs. Nothing too fancy, but I’m not a super fancy person.
I’ve gotten their wedding soup and I will say that I believe that’s something they can improve on. There just isn’t a lot of flavor in it. And sometimes the service here is kind of slow if you go during the day. But if you go later on in the evening or go during your lunch and say you need to get back to work, they’ll take care of you pretty quickly.
I will definitely keep going to Spaghetti Warehouse. I love the casual, relaxed atmosphere and I’ve never had a problem with their food. It’s a place I love to go and take friends to just for a nice dinner in a place where I don’t feel out of place in jeans.

This was my 1^st time having gone to this place and I most likely will not be back.
I ordered, the 2 full 4 course meals for $ 39.99 (came to $ 48.57 in the end) which by portions was REALLY huge. We got the following:
appetizer: spinach artichoke dip. Had 5 or so slices of garlic bread that were pretty good. The dip itself was kind of cold and I only took a few dips out of it. Was not what I expected. It had this sweet after taste and not the savory/​creamy taste Im used too.
I also got the Milestone soup. It was loaded with veggies and just a few macaroni noodles mixed in. I really enjoyed it though. BEST PART OF MY MEAL!!!
Dinner: I chose the Chicken Parmigiana. It was a nice size portion. The spaghetti noodles were good, and the sauce was a little much but I enjoyed it. The chicken on the other hand WAS NASTY! I was cutting into it and wondering why I was having a hard time with it. My first bite I said «this taste like vinegar». I cut another piece and it was super rubbery. I don’t know if any of you every had chicken where it was almost done and at the point where the texture is not quite right. Well that is how mine was. I looked down and the chicken almost looked transparent, because it was NOT done all the way! I called the manager over and he looked at it and shook his head. Sent it back and literally 10 mins later a new one came out. HOW?.. He then explained that they under cook their chicken to make it juicy and that next time I need to request that they make it well done. (I cannot make this up.) CHICKEN ALWAYS SHOULD BE WELL DONE!!! Everyone at my table looked confused after we processed what he said. I don’t know any place that will cook chicken that way. DISGUSTING! I cut into my new one and it was a little better, but at this point I was not in mood.
Dessert: cheesecake, i didn’t eat it, just gave it away.
My waitress Abrianna: she was nice simply because she bought us our food. Very dry. When I got the check, I had 5 receipts in the little folder things they give you. WHY? I see how my order added up and she broke it down into all these pieces of paper, for some odd reason, I appreciated it. The last receipt was for another $ 28. I’m like, well what was this for? I look at it and «coffee» and something else that I did not recognize, so we called her over and gave it to her. I prayed all the way home that I didnt pay for someone else food! Nothing on my bank statement is off so for now Im good. We shall see tomorrow.
Overall experience was just whatever. Like I said in the beginning, I most likely wont be back. I do hope others will enjoy this place on my behalf and walk away please.

We waited for 10 minutes, for seemingly no reason, as there were plenty of tables open. While we were waiting, I used the restroom, which smelled like an old mop and had numerous broken doors and unsanitary looking fixtures.
As far as our meal, the bread and garlic butter were good but that’s just about the only decent part of our meal. Our salads were drenched in dressing and covered with what tasted like average, store-​bought croutons. After placing our order, we waited nearly an hour for our food, which we had to ask about twice. My son’s macaroni and cheese was salty and cold. It tasted like under-​cooked noodles with alfredo sauce — and not something most kids would like. My mom’s food came out cold and congealed. The other dishes, while hot, were only slightly better than pasta I could’ve made at home.
I will say that our server, and the manager, were polite and friendly; however, based on the sub-​par experience and awful food, I won’t be returning.

The bread and butter are delicious! We got the malbec on the menu, which was also very good.
The salad that comes with the pasta dishes are not great, consisting of only iceberg lettuce, one tomato, one onion, and a few croutons. We ordered fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken and manicotti. The entrees were okay.
All in all, I wouldn’t go back to this restaurant.

Delicious food !! I always love coming here but I feel like the food has gotten better and the waitress Angelica was wonderful !

Sadly I have to give it two stars. This place used to be my favorite and it has simply gone down hill. They even switched to paper print out menus. They got rid of many of our old favorite dishes, like roasted garlic shrimp. The portions are smaller and the Alfredo was watery and gross. Tasted nothing like the original that I once knew. Our waitress was clueless and was slower than a snail. The fat troll of a manager kept walking past our table multiple times before he finally apologized for our «delayed greeting». We waited for re fills longer than we should have and so did another couple that sat across from us. I’ll probably still come back due to the sentimental value that this place holds in my heart, but they most definitely need to go back to their old ways or I can foresee this place running itself into the ground.

Went here after purchasing the Groupon. There was a little bit of a wait which is expected on Saturday night. We were seat at a table like we requested. We waited for 15 minutes before the waitress came over. She took our drink and food order at the same time. I ordered the broccoli and mushrooms and added a piece of salmon. My husband ordered the Trio. Our waitress. Abby, disappeared and we waited a long time for refills. When our food arrived, my salmon that was $ 5 more was burnt, I could only eat half of it. My husband said his Alfredo tasted like stuff you’d get out of a box. Needless to say, if we didn’t have the Groupon, we’d never go. And we’ll never be back.

The pasta is consistently overcooked. The service is not only poor, but the staff are rude. I will not visit this restaurant again. I’m not Italian, but I cook way better than this myself.

The service was nice. She was polite, and fixed the multitude of issues I had with the food. The salad was warm, the ravioli was cold, and the bread was harder than the croutons. The manager was also very kind, and made some adjustments to the check. I’d love to say that I’d return to this establishment, but there’s much room for improvement. Having worked in the service industry for some years, I try to give the benefit of the doubt, but in this case the service was the only pleasant part.

Generous portions and the ingredients are made fresh every day. The food is great for the price.

I wish it were possible to give this place 0 stars. I ate here twice, hated the food both times, and felt like I was in a bizzaro funhouse instead of a restaurant. They clearly thing that if they go for the most ridiculous décor they can imagine it will distract from their lousy food. They’re wrong.

The food is amazing! If you’re turned on by Traditional Italian, this is the restaurant for you. The lasagna and calamari are some of the best I ever had. I guarantee you will enjoy yourself.

What a great place to take your family! Not only is the décor fun but the food and prices wont make you frown either. Spicy Shrimp pasta was friggin awesome and the calamari was fantastic. They have really good prices, specials are more than affordable and the staff are attentative. We will def be coming back. Had a blast!

Yum. Delicious!
To start off, we were surprised and happy to find that there is FREE PARKING for the Spaghetti Warehouse right behind the building which is a rarity in Pittsburgh so it’s worth mentioning.
I’m not a wine drinker but I could make a whole meal of their sangria. The appetizer sampler is huge and amazing. The bread was warm and delicious. I got the pick 3 deal which was an appetizer, entrée and dessert and was a decent deal… could have used a little more sauce on my ravioli but I like things overly saucy. My friend got the Turin Trio which was the lasagna, fettucine alfredo and chicken parmesan. Amazing.
Cute kind of kitschy atmosphere with cool stained glass and a trolley car in the middle of the restaurant that you could sit in to eat. Reminded me a little of Buca di Beppo. Service was great and prices were not bad at all for all the food we got.

Recently I ate at Spaghetti Warehouse .
Breakdown:
Décor: nicely done, made me feel comfortable, «warehouse chique» I guess you could call it. (⁴⁄₅)
Service: waiters were kind and were on top of things (⁵⁄₅)
Food: it was pretty good, but not quite as good as other Italian restaurants I have been to. (⁴⁄₅)
Overall: nice place for a good meal at a fair price ! Would recommend for families or just a for group meals. In summary, great experience, if I ever happen to go to Pittsburgh again this restaurant would be on my places to eat !

I came here with a large group of about forty people. We were seated quickly in the restaurant, which looks nothing like a warehouse. The walls are covered in various decorations, and there’s a nice boisterous atmosphere.
We were served sourdough bread on wooden paddles, which also had cups of flavored butter. The bread was delicious – warm, crisp on the outside, and pillowy soft on the inside. The butter was a nice accompaniment. My friend got really excited when she realized we were coming here because she loved the bread, and she was super excited when we were served more.
Next, we had salad. The iceberg lettuce was really crisp and fresh. It also had tomatoes, onions, croutons, and dressing. It wasn’t bad.
I ordered the 15-​Layer Lasagne from the banquet menu (other choices included grilled chicken Caesar salad, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parmesan, and manicotti). It was served with a little Italian flag toothpick. I really enjoyed the lasagna, especially because the meat was so flavorful. I don’t eat lasagna much, but this was one of the best I’ve had.
Overall, service was curt and there was too much waiting for my liking, but I can’t provide an accurate representation because we were in a large group situation.
I had a good experience here and definitely wouldn’t mind returning!

Looks like it’s time to update another review of mine. I once said I had never had a bad experience at this place. Buuuut things have gone downhill a little at the Warehouse since then, so I suppose it’s time to update my original statement.
While the food here is still some of my favorite comfort food in the city (I certainly won’t pretend it’s genuine Italian), in the last couple of years things have really slowed down at the Warehouse. At my last visit they were so severely understaffed that I waited about 20 — 30 minutes to be seated, even though I remember seeing open tables during my wait. This isn’t to say that the staff didn’t do the best they could during that night — in fact the poor girl who handled my table was very clearly doing her best to rush from table to table without dropping anything. And a manager even came out to apologize and bring me drinks because our poor waitress was handling so many tables. So they definitely earned some goodwill back with that.
It helps that the food hasn’t let me down yet — it always comes out cooked well and seasoned well, and I always enjoy every bite. Sure, it’s probably not what Italian die-​hards are looking for, but it is a chain restaurant and it does a very good job once you consider that. I will continue to stop in for delicious glasses of sangria and huge portions of pasta and other «Italian» comfort foods — but only on days I’m not in a rush; and hopefully the trend of slower service and not calling in enough people to work won’t last forever.

I know it’s a chain restaurant, but I loved the food and the atmosphere. Maybe I love the kitchy?
We arrived before the dinner rush and were promplty seated and our waitress was at our table. She took our drink orders and then disappeared for a bit to let us look over the menus. When she arrived with our drinks we placed an appetizer order and she disappeared again. This time when she returned she was empty handed and took our orders for our entrees.
A little slide downhill here. A salad/​soup comes with the entrée. Weird thing is, we received our salads way before our appetizer, yeah, the thing we ordered first. While we were eating our salads the appetizer finally came out… wrong. What we had oredred was not what we recieved. All that wait and we don’t even get the right thing. We informed the waitress, and instead of taking it back, she just brought us what was missing. The food finally comes out, correctly this time. We munch away and then the manager pops up to inquire how we were doing. We say fine and ask for a box to put what we couldn’t finish.
Time to pay and it’s a bit of a cluster here because we asked to have the check split. Things showed up on reversed receipts, but all is good in the end. Will I come back here, yes, but will I remember it’s here, probably, but only if I drive by it again.

No, nope, uh uh, no way, please don’t call this an Italian restaurant. Overcooked, mushy noodles, watery tomato gravy, and meatballs that are too garlicky and over spiced. Can’t give this place anything lower than 1 star. Seriously, Olive Garden is a joke and I rate it higher than this place.
Again, my advice to any Italian food lover, find a good neighborhood, family owned restaurant and support a family and not a conglomerate.
