Les avis sur L'usine de Spaghetti soulignent des portions copieuses et des pâtes savoureuses avec une variété de sauces, un buffet de salade à volonté et du pain offert, le tout dans une ambiance chaleureuse et un cadre du Vieux Montréal apprécié pour son caractère nostalgique; le service est majoritairement attentif et sympathique, souvent loué lors de réunions de famille ou entre amis. Des remarques ponctuelles évoquent des temps d'attente en période d'affluence, des incohérences dans certaines assiettes et des plats manquant parfois d'assaisonnement; malgré cela, l'ensemble des critiques reste favorable et beaucoup recommandent l'endroit pour l'expérience italienne accessible, le cadre et la qualité des desserts et des vins.
This is such a cute restaurant & the decor is absolutely amazing. I got the smoked meat pasta & it was AMAZING like genuinely I would eat that everyday for the rest of my life. I also got an apple martini & it was delicious we were a little disappointed by the salad bar because we thought it would be build your own salad but it's just premade salads but they're still really good. The garlic butter for the bread is also amazing. It's cold so it doesn't spread well & the bread is nothing special but the taste of the butter makes it all worth it.
L'Usine de Spaghetti is superb! The nostalgic feel of the dining area added to the quality of our experience. The salad bar & entrees were among the best in our dining experiences which includes Europe.

The all you can eat salad bar & tasty pasta were the best things about this place! Service & atmosphere were great. We got the linguine & veg spaghetti for our main meals.
Atmosphere is nice but I feel compelled to WARN people about the food. The meatball tasted like they put a big chunk of meat into a ball with ABSOLUTELY NO SEASONING. So dry & awful. & the meat sauce, equally as awful & again, no seasoning.
My son got the fettuccine alfredo & since that sauce only has 3 ingredients, they SHOULD be nailing it. BUT they didn't put enough parmigiana so it wasn't salty enough. AGAIN, ABSOLUTELY NO FLAVOUR.
The bread basket was dry, day old bread that crumbled apart because it was so dry. & the accompanying butter wasn't soft so it was hard to put the two together.
Now to the most BIZARRE salad bar EVER. Huge chunks of kale, the most challenging'lettuce' to chew while raw. & that's it, no normal lettuce. Why not some Romano? Then there's the coleslaw with WAY TOO MUCH MAYO? At an Italian restaurant? The ONE edible thing was the potato salad, but again, at an Italian restaurant? This salad bar needs a serious re-think.
Hubby got the chicken parmesan & it was SO DRY, NO SEASONING & caked on mozzarella, which was the only good part. But I can get a cheap slice of pizza if I want a slab of cooked mozzarella.
Not sure HOW this restaurant is getting decent reviews. It seems impossible to me! Literally the WORST Italian restaurant I've EVER experienced. & we had to pay a steep price for REALLY bad food. I'm sad because we work so hard for our money.
Love the menu concept that was named after places in Montreal. Came here twice so we've got to try several dishes here & we love them all. Free salad bar & bread as appetizers both for lunch & dinner. The staffs were also amazing. Lovely space to visit if you come to Old Port (small note that it's first come first serve, they don't take reservations)
We stopped into this darling little Italian place for lunch while on a visit from California. We were absolutely delighted with our whole experience - the cheerful service, the lovely ambience, & the delicious food! We enjoyed the salad bar (definitely have the potato salad, it was very good) & bread. The onion roll was our favorite. My husband had the spaghetti & meatballs & absolutely LOVED it. The meatballs were fantastic!! I thoroughly enjoyed the tortellini with rosé sauce. The tortellini was very light, the filling was creamy, & the beautifully balanced sauce was the perfect blend of red & white. Honestly, we ate here on the second to last day of our 6 day trip & our only disappointment was that we didn't find it on day 1 or 2 so we could have gone back for more! Next time we are in Montreal you will definitely be on our list!
The food was pretty average! Nothing special! We got Salad bar which was a total disappointment & Alfredo chicken which felt short of our lowest expectations! This is a place that we will never try again!

After a boat ride in Montreal Port, we decided to check this place out & I'm so glad we did. The food was amazing & the atmosphere was beautiful. I did appreciate the salad bar as well. Definitely will be back
It's been so long since I've been to this part of Montreal. This was a recommendation from a friend, & it was a long shot because it was a super busy evening. Line went super fast though, & I got their traditional spaghetti & meatballs. Hands down best pasta I've ever had, & I've been to Italy. The salad bar was so good too! & the wait staff were all wearing these hilarious T-shirts with pasta puns, & even though it was super busy they all seemed to be enjoying themselves & were wonderful workers.
Delicious food, server was very kind & attentive. Waited for almost 40 mins for a large table for 7 people but it is worthy. No reservation needed first come first serve. Complimentary salad bar available
Lovely atmosphere, friendly & fast service, & good food. Waited ~ half an hour for a table & it was well worth it! The salad bar & unlimited bread w/ garlic butter was what sold it for us 😅 we got four different pastas & they were all delicious. Cocktails are a bit pricey but otherwise the menu is affordable! Would absolutely recommend!

Been coming here for years & they simply never disappoint.
Amazing value (+ free salad bar)
So many different pasta options
Great location in heart of Old Port
Underrated dessert
We ate good pasta, it even came with a self-serve salad bar. A good restaurant to try in the Old Port if you are visiting Montréal! The duck in my pasta was delicious
Nice rustic atmosphere. On-the-house salad bar & the variety bread basket with garlic butter is a sumptuous addition to their delicious entrees we tried the ravioli, penne, tortellini for lunch & they even custom made a sauted vegable entree for someone who was a vegetarian.
Do not forget to order their desserts - the chocolate cake was a bliss!

A delightful experience all around! We came in looking for reasonably priced pasta, & were surprised with an all-you-can-eat salad bar included with the main. 100% worth the price for what was included. The portions were generous & the water crisp.
My favorite place in the Old Port! It's affordable & the food is just amazing. I love everything in their menu, they have a good variety of flavors for everyone. Pasta lovers, you will be served. However, you can to come either early or late, if not you will wait in line for a long time. It is worth it? I would say, definitely! They also have unlimited salad bar, which is amazing if you need your veggies doses haha! I totally recommend!
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.
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.
