    My wife and I were able to split a lasagna platter and a salad. We each had plenty to eat for the price on one meal. The flavor, texture, and presentation of the food was very good.

    It wasn't near as good as previous visits, but it had been about a year since we've been there. It's obvious they are cutting menu items and food quality to help with costs. My examples are stale bread and no garlic butter, just plain butter. My meat spaghetti sauce tasted like it was just dumped out of a can and actually didn't have any meat in it. We probably won't be back unfortunately. It was always good to go to if you had something going on in downtown Dayton.

    We were there almost 2 hours and only got bread, salads and cold appetizers. We saw our waitress twice and never once were able to get our drinks refilled. We had to end up canceling our entrees because we had plans after dinner that we would’ve missed if we waited on our food. Easily the worst dinner experience we’ve ever had.

    This was our first time at spaghetti warehouse. The host asked us upon entering if it was ok that we were sat in the trolley. Of course that was fine with us! The environment was so much fun! Everyone seemed very happy. There was even a wedding rehearsal taking place in the back. Our food was great. The service on the other hand, not very good. Once she took our order it was like pulling teeth to get her to come back to the table. I did not get a refill until she brought the check. I had all of the dishes stacked for someone to grab as they walked by but no one ever did take them. We ordered a lot of food so I needed boxes to take some home. I figured at the least she would grab the dishes when she brought the boxes. I was wrong. There was not even room for her to set the boxes down so she just handed them to me and walked away. With those boxes she brought us the dessert we ordered to go. They were out of what my son ordered so she just took it upon herself to bring him something different instead of asking if that was ok. To put the left overs in the boxes I had to move the empty dishes to another table. Overall the food was great but if I go back and she walked up to take my order I would just leave. I did let the host know on my way out. I hate being that person but the problem can’t be fixed if they don’t know.

    We had not been in several months and reading some of the latest reviews, I had concerns. However, we were very pleasantly surprised. We were seated right away and our server was amazing. Very excellent service. My mom and I split the Ultimate Feast for Two, but I think it would have fed 4. Everything was delicious. The chicken parm was excellent. It looks like they have done a little updating since we were there last. Everything seemed clean. Our only “complaints” (if we can call them that) are that the bread was over baked and did not taste quite the same. Not as sourdoughy. The sangria also seemed a little water-downed. Otherwise, everything else was perfect.

    Server was good and considerate of our time constraints Husband ordered shrimp Alfredo, it came with the tails on it! Pretty gross to dig shrimp out of Alfredo sauce to remove tails. I had cheese ravioli. It was ok. The next morning, we both were sick. This restaurant has gone way down hill. Wouldn’t recommend unless you have a strong gut.

    10 of us were there for my sons birthday. I placed it on the reservation in advance, and they put us right next to another big birthday table. It was very loud an overwhelming when there are plenty of other spaces to place us, but we still enjoy the food and had a good time.

    A mainstay in Dayton for years. My sister and I always take our life long friends here for lunch when we visit from Atlanta. It's nostalgic. Our server was the best - he engaged with our friends (96 and 94 years old respectively) and gave them the attention our seniors deserve.

    The food was okay, the eggplant was cut too thick and not cooked well. Desserts weren’t available and then desserts to go weren’t correct. Very disappointing when arrived at home to find the incorrect dessert in the to go box. Italian wedding soup too light on meat.

    The service was absolutely amazing! Our server was the BEST we have EVER had! She was attentive, accurate, polite, caring and her customer service lasted throughout our meal! We were celebrating a birthday and she enlisted some of the most fun additional staff members to help make our birthday guy feel incredibly celebrated! I had tears in my eyes! It was fabulous! The food was delicious! I had the ravioli and I loved it! The blacked out chocolate cake was incredible! The seasonal Reese cake was a huge hit at our 6 top! I had a bite and most definitely is it good! The appetizers were served up hot and stayed hot and the bread kept on coming. Yes, I reviewed the food a bit mixed up. We were enjoying each other’s company so perfectly because the atmosphere and fantastic service allowed for us to just be us! Thank you so much for a perfect family dinner! We loved it!

    My daughters grading dinner for 15 family members, 6 from out of town. Service was worst I have ever had. Server had our table of 15 and a table of 12. Several of us ended up sick from the meal, Manicotti and Ravioli seemed to be the issue. Spent $420 on a meal that under normal circumstances would have been sent back and complained about. Sad.

    It was prom night so it was busy, which I understand. I think a waitress that knew she was going to get a 20% tip off a group of 8 knew she didn’t have to do anything. She barely visited our table and forgot our bread, which not too big of a deal, but still shows how much she cared about us. There just wasn’t very much care and you could tell, plus the food was average, nothing too exciting about the spaghetti (the wedding soup was good). If the service is good, I normally do tip 20% or more but I honestly would have only tipped 15% because of her neglecting us due to a group of teenagers and her guaranteed 20%
