Excellent Italian restaurant in old Montreal with excellent service. The food & wine was wonderful. We enjoyed the wild boar macaroni & the beef ravioli. Glad we stopped by!

The salad bar is a nice touch, though somewhat limited. The bread quality wasn't great, with the onion bun being the only standout. As for the pasta, both the pesto & ragu were comforting & filling. Overall, a nice spot near Bonsecours Market in Old Montreal.

Some excellent pasta to enjoy near Old Port in montreal. I had grabbed their lobster pasta & was very satisfied with my choice. Decadent & buttery it was quite scrumptious. The service & atmosphere are also both excellent as well. Would reccomend.

The food was great.

Our second time here decided to try different dishes. I usually have the same thing when I find a dish i like. I tried a different dish, & it was delicious. But had to have the mushrooms garlic & herbs, it's our favorite. Great atmosphere & relaxed feel.
If you are in old Montreal & craving for pasta. I recommend this place.

Food was mediocre at best. Bread brought to us was stale & cold. Salad bar was not a draw with all the flu & viruses around. Basically it's just a tourist grade restaurant.

This is an awesome location in Old Montreal! Our waitress was friendly & helpful. The food is solid, & there are several vegetarian options. Bottles of wine are reasonably priced, & the salad bar is a unique feature! The lighting, decor, & music are all thoughtfully designed & create a beautiful setting. Our party of five walked in ~5PM & was seated immediately without a reservation. There was a line on our way out, so larger groups may benefit from making a reservation.

Nous avons visité L'Usine du Spaghetti à Montréal en famille (deux adultes, deux enfants). Malheureusement, notre expérience a été plutôt décevante. Mon mari a choisi une des assiettes du jour, la joue de boeuf. Le goût était bon, mais la pièce de viande était froide. J'ai pris le spaghetti à la sauce tomate : la sauce était savoureuse, mais les pâtes manquaient de sel, rendant le plat très fade. De plus, les spaghettis n'étaient pas des pâtes fraîches, mais des pâtes standard qu'on trouve en grande surface. Mes enfants ont pris le spaghetti à la sauce bolognaise. La sauce contenait beaucoup trop d'origan séché, ce qui en masquait le goût & n'a pas plu à mes enfants. C'est pourtant un plat qu'ils aiment habituellement & qui est assez standard. Côté dessert, ils étaient bons, mais cela ne suffit pas pour compenser notre déception globale. Pour un restaurant portant le nom "L'Usine du Spaghetti", nous nous attendions à une meilleure maîtrise des sauces & des pâtes.
