Review Summary

Overall, L'usine de Spaghetti in the Old Port comes across as a bustling, family friendly Italian spot with a warm, nostalgic atmosphere, a generous salad bar and free bread that many diners praise, and a menu focused on comforting pastas and hearty mains that deliver big portions for good value. Reviewers consistently highlight the variety of pasta sauces and dishes, from lobster pasta and fettuccine to meatballs and braised beef ravioli, with several noting standout flavors and pasta cooked to al dente. The open bar concept and wine selection add to the welcoming vibe, and service is often described as attentive and efficient, though a few visits mention slower rounds or dishes that lack seasoning. Lines can form on busy nights, but wait times are often short when arriving early, and guests frequently mention returning for the atmosphere as much as the food. While some entries warn that portions can feel uneven and a few dishes miss the mark, the consensus is that the restaurant offers a memorable pasta focused experience with charm and value.

Pâtes sans goût & non frais. Intéressant concept, bar à salade à volonté, par contre les salades avaient un goût fades. La bière dispendieuse au prix de 11$ le verre. Le service correct, mais froid. On a attendu longtemps avant que la nourriture arrive. Bref, je n'y retournerai pas.

Vous trouverez forcément votre bonheur gustatif avec un large choix de pâte & une belle carte des vins. Ne prenant pas de réservation, il est possible que vous fassiez un peu la queue pour obtenir une table. Mais le service étant au rendez-vous, l'attente ne sera pas longue, & en vaut le détour. Nous nous sommes vraiment régalés & les portions sont généreuses. Le petit + : si vous prenez un verre de vin, ils vous le feront goûter avant de vous servir. Allez y sans hésiter.

Ce restaurant était l'un de nos préférés dans le secteur du Vieux Port à Montréal & nous l'avions recommandé à plusieurs de nos amis. Mais lors de nos deux dernières visites, nous avons été très déçu de la qualité de la nourriture. Aujourd'hui erreur dans notre commande, spaghetti à la viande sauce à l'eau & au goût d'une sauce en canne. Bière sans alccool 8 $ sur le menu & soudainement 10 $ sur la facture. Petit conseil, si vous allez manger à ce restaurant, éviter la table pour deux à l'arrière du restaurant car la banquette n'est pas confortable & vous devrez subir un bruit de compresseur pour la durée de votre repas.

BEST PASTA! We ordered the house classic spaghetti (forgot to get a pic) & prosciutto blue cheese linguini. Uber delicious & filling. Food loses 1 star because the included AYCE salad bar is mid. Makes the price of the pasta less justifiable. Cozy atmosphere, great for a date. Nice staff & reasonably fast service. Overall would definitely reccommend!!!

My wife & I love this spot! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is so much fun & the staff is always so friendly. We had the bruschetta, the meat ball spaghetti & the braised beef pasta! Great place to stop by if you're in the Old Port.

Waited 15min for a table, delighted we did. Self-serve salad bar a big plus. Entrees were absolutely delicious. We left stuffed.

Service, atmosphere & salad bar good but food is not very good! Complementary bread was dry & tasted like frozen bread. Overall, I think the price for what we got was good considering it was in the middle of old montreal. It felt like it was a place for tourists! The main dishes were too salty & felt like I could have made them at home. Mushroom risotto: not a lot of mushrooms, oily & lacked flavour. Lobster pasta: nothing amazing The sauce lacked character. Lamb chops & pesto pasta: nice lamb chops & pasta was pretty good. Would recommend out of all the dishes. Salad bar: fresh salad & side dishes!

We tried the Bruschetta, Penne Arrabiata, & the meatball. Loved everything that came. The tomatoes on the bruschetta & in the arrabiata is simply scrumptious! The complimentary breads were really fragrant too, I didn't think I would like onions on bread, but turns out I do! The place was charming & nice atmosphere too.

This family run restaurant in Old Montreal has been a favorite of mine for years! I hadn't been there since before Covid & was thrilled to know it survived! It was absolutely wonderful. The salad bar was still there & the pasta dishes were as delicious as always. The prices are great. The restaurant is in a beautiful old building. Don't miss this place!!!

We ordered lamb shank & duck confit. It was seriously incredible. We're thinking of coming again before our vacation is done. Would recommend coming here!
