I've been here three times now, twice for work parties and once for lunch, and it always delivers. That consistency is exactly why this place stands out. Whether you're coming with a group or stopping in mid-day, the experience is smooth, welcoming, and dependable. It's an easy spot to get to, just off the freeway, and works perfectly for after-work gatherings or casual lunches. The bar is a major highlight. It's well set up, energetic, and often features live music that adds to the atmosphere without overwhelming the room. The crowd is a great mix of friendly locals and professionals, which makes the vibe relaxed and comfortable every time. Service has been solid on every visit, attentive, efficient, and genuinely friendly. Food and drinks arrive as expected, with no issues, which is especially important when you're hosting coworkers or clients. Overall, it's a reliable, enjoyable spot with a great bar scene and good energy. Easy five stars. read more

Spaghettini - Holiday party juice, a Ketel One Martini served "up" and dirty delivers every time. #CHEERS - Italian Near Me - Seal Beach, California

We had a fun filled evening with LA ABBA entertaining Friday at Spaghettini, con grazia. The music was all ABBA for two hours without break. The energy was palpable in a room with other fans, making for a fun evening of singing and swaying. We started with drinks and were served water and pillowy focaccia. My friend had the house wine, a Pinot Noir, which was delicious. I had the pineapple habanero margarita- a tasty number served with the flower like slice of dehydrated, pineapple. Beautiful presentation. We started with bruschetta (which I have at each visit). The halved cherry tomatoes are served with goat cheese, vinaigrette and slim slivers of basil. The toast is perfect and that it is slim crispy on the edges and still soft to bite into My friend had the pommodore, a light sauce married nicely with thin spaghettini. I was less impressed with my Bolognese. It was the most delicate Bolognese I've ever had; served with a very large rigatoni. It was too much pasta for sauce. Previously, I enjoyed their salmon, halibut and Chilean sea bass, expertly prepared. From my perspective if they can make fish this good I bet the pasta is incredible. So, I deleted a point for the Bolognese, BUT Two stars for service because JON took such good care of us. read more

I celebrated my birthday at Spaghettini and picked it mostly because it's close to Old Ranch Golf Course and had great reviews. We got there around 4PM for an early dinner and were seated in a comfy booth. By 5, the place started filling up -- definitely worth making a reservation. The ambiance was warm and homey, quiet enough for good conversation. Parking was easy, though the entrance was a little confusing -- one turn looked like it led straight to the freeway. The spaghetti with meatballs was hands-down my favorite, right next to the Ahi tower. The seafood pasta and tagliatelle al funghi were a bit bland, and the sweet corn risotto was on the salty side. But the desserts totally made up for it -- both the cheesecake and crème brûlée were amazing. So glad we didn't skip those! read more

I have not been here in awhile. Me and my crew had lunch here yesterday. I got the Spaghetti Seafood special, and it was delicious. Too bad it was a overcast day on the beach, but the view inside the place was still beautiful in Seal Beach. Nice waitress. Cindy is the best. I will be back often again. read more

I love that I can call Spaghettini one of our local establishments, we always have access to celebrate anything small or large. Our most recent visit was made extra special by our sweet server Vanessa, who really insured that everything was well taken care of and we were able to fully enjoy the great music. I got to try the mango seafood salad for the first time which I can't wait to go back for. Their wine and drink selection is always really fun and there's always something to fit the mood. My husband got his favorite, meatball and marinara, that is his hard-core go to. I've also been obsessed with the short rib and sweet corn risotto for years. Thank you for Vanessa making our anniversary extra memorable and we can't wait to see you again. read more

Straight out the gate this place deserves 5 stars for service I brought my friend here for her birthday. When I made the reservation I made them aware it was for a birthday They reached out to me the day before we came in and asked for the name of whose birthday it was because they wanted to make a card I absolutely love that they did this. I know this place gets packed and I love that it's such a busy place yet this establishment takes the time to do this. So, thank you to everyone here!! We were greeted right away, the atmosphere is really nice (it was both our first time here) on certain days they have live music and different specials We had the most amazing waiter, Roberto. He was absolutely so kind and kept asking whose birthday it was and how long have we been friends and him talking about his childhood best friends. He was very very easy to talk to and relatable, it was like talking to a friend. I love having waiters like him, He was genuine. The man walking around refilling our waters did an amazing job as well. Our cups were never empty He was so knowledgeable about the menu. He went above and beyond My girlfriend and I wanted to share a large steak and get a bunch of sides. The biggest they had on the menu was 18 ounces. (We saw ahead of time that they had bigger steaks when we searched the menu online) We asked if they had bigger and he informed us they JUST took the 32 oz steak off the menu and made it strictly a weekly special. (Saturday's special I believe) After knowing it was a dinner for my girlfriend's birthday AND we were talking about my upcoming surgery he immediately went to the kitchen and asked if they could pull some strings. Roberto and the rest of the staff came through. The steak was cooked perfectly!! It was juicy, it wasn't too salty and had the right amount of seasoning. (It was on the pricey side. But again, it was for a birthday and pre Surgery. I highly recommend this place for special occasions) Along with the steak we got the Mac and cheese and the scalloped potatoes. (Mac and cheese was absolutely delicious but I'd pass on the scalloped potatoes) They also brought out delicious bread to the table. We ordered drinks that Roberto recommended He recommended the- sitting pretty. Which was a fruity vodka based cocktail. And my girlfriend got a watermelon mint mocktail with no alcohol that he said was one of his favorites At the end they brought out a mini birthday cheesecake and we asked to add a scoop of ice cream. He also took our photo for us with our phone but he also brought out a camera. So they give you a birthday card and at the end they print a photo out and put it inside the card. It was such a perfect touch This was a bit of an older crowd, I noticed. So don't come here expecting a rowdy party. And a lot of people coming here for special occasions. It would be nice to have some wine here with girlfriends. Roberto was telling us all about their special wine menu. So I'll definitely have to come back for some wine and their steak P.S they have a private parking lot with a bunch of handicap spots up close which is a huge bonus read more

the tagliatelle mushroom with chicken was so delicious! portion sizes were a lot larger than expected when you're paying for higher prices. we were expecting to do attend the live music & do dinner, but they said it was a separate ticket so just be aware when you're getting a reservation! service was a little more assertive in getting us to try more dishes, but overall, nice spot to celebrate for a birthday or any celebration! read more

Spaghettini - Dining room decor! - Italian Near Me - Seal Beach, California

Spaghettini has been a staple spot in Seal Beach for eons. The layout is inviting for all: - large parties, family dinners, celebrations - private space can be reserved - bar style is sophisticated with open seating and efficient service Now, let me tell you what... We sat at a high-top in the lounge where we were serenaded by Mic Dangerously and his pal Alex Vo. These two will make you swoon. Check out these Studs on Wednesdays from 5-7:30pm. We ordered the fried calamari (fresh, not frozen ++++) and the bruschetta made from scratch. Add an espresso martini to the tasty apps and catchy tunes, can't celebrate hump day better than that. Shout out to Roberto for his excellent service! read more

I treated my parents to dinner here for their anniversary, and we enjoyed every moment of our evening at Spaghettini. I loved the restaurant's upscale vibe, classy interior design, and the dim romantic lighting that created a warm and cozy ambiance. Service was also exemplary.

Overall, it was a memorable dining experience, and I would definitely return for special occasions. Note: Parking in the lot is limited and difficult unless you valet ($10). ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh.

My best friend brought us to Spaghettinis for the first time last year....for Sunday brunch with DW3!!! It was so amazing we had decided to make reservations for our anniversary there this year. They had a dinner showing with a jazz fusion band called J-Rod and The 4 Korners. They were so, so good, we sat front and center. The band rocked the house out. We had sooooo much fun. We can't wait for them to come back next year. We had another couple with us and we all had such a great time. The outside was sooooo cutely decorated with a variety of pumpkins (which we found out were real and they did that every year). The hostesses are always so welcoming with a smile and accomadating. They have these in house Spaghettini candles that they sell and they are all so tantalizing to our smell senses. Jill was our server and she was as sweet as can be. She made sure to keep our drinks flowing and always served or delicious food hot with all the sides and more. She was polite and made sure to not reach over us. She was awesome and we will be asking for her section the next time we stop by. Let's start off with my drink, I had a Jameson sour that was perfect. It was a balanced mix of sweet, tart, and strong, with a smooth classic flavor of Irish whiskey at it's core topped off with a Luxardo cherry. Can I have another? The Mr. had a Pellegrino with lemon, lime and orange wedges. We had the saturday dinner special: 32oz Porterhouse for Two, medium well, the steak was grilled to perfectioin and perfectly seasoned and so tender, it literally melted in your mouth (we also asked for fresh horseradish and creamed, both equally delectable). It was accompanied with char-grilled asparagus and house side salad. We added two 7oz Austrailian lobster tails which were seared to perfection which highlighted it's sweet and briny ocean flavor along with melted lemon butter. We also added a wedge salad which came with crisp lettuce, even crispier applewood smoked bacon chunks, thick sliced sweet heirloom tomatoes, slices of red onions and incredibly pungent blue cheese. Yuuuuuummmmmmmy!! For dessert we had the Tahitian vanilla butter cake which was warm and sooooooooooooo incredibly moist. The vanilla bean ice cream was so rich and creamy. The house whipped cream was slightly sweet with the tart slices of strawberry and sweet black berries were the perfect end to our awesome anniversary dinner. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK FOR SOME MORE DINNERS AND A SHOW!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL TONIGHT!!! Pictures to come with another review. read more

We usually don't go out to eat on Valentine's Day, it's just always packed, prefixe menus, long waits and not the best service due to a packed house. I've been wanting to come to Spaghettini for years on the weekend for the live music, of course inquiring for a reservation as late as I did, 7 days prior, was not a possibility. I thought let me check on a late lunch early dinner and boom 3 pm it was. It was a lovely day out, sat in the patio our server was nice and friendly. Started off with lobster bisque, deeeeelicious with generous amount of lobster. Followed with a 9 oz of Kim Crawford sauv blanc and pot roast and scalloped potatoes, it was ok. My partner had the steak and lobster dish with mash potatoes. He said it was very good but still hungry + overpriced... steak could have been at least an 8oz, it was only a 6oz piece for $150 anddd ohhh I almost forgot server convinced me to have the butter cake, and I'm sorry it was toooo much, too sweet, I really enjoy the butter cake from CPK much better. Perhaps we chose the wrong dishes, just expected much more. read more

We had not been to Spaghettini in about 15 years, and we are so happy we went back! The pastas were flavorful and delish! I had the capellini, and my sister and aunt had the spaghetti with meatballs and the food was perfect! The chocolate mousse was a great dessert. My sister had the perfect pear martini, and I had the mango martini- both great choices. Shout out to our server Roberto and the bus man Alfredo who were attentive and took great care of us. It's also a fun ambiance. If you have a chance, check this place out. read more

Once upon a time, this Faerie Queen was invited to a Happy Hour meeting here. What a wonderful place! The space itself is large and comfortable. There is a touch of elegance here that makes this restaurant stand out. The appetizers are delicious. I enjoyed the deconstructed bruschetta, Brussels sprouts, and pizza. We also enjoyed the wine. Our meeting went well and we ended up sitting and relaxing while enjoying the nosh. We are already planning our return for the next meeting. It is important to note there is live music here, a lovely restaurant, and a venue for special events. When we left, I wondered, what took me so long to get here? The end. read more

Spaghettiini never disappoints, but this visit was especially memorable thanks to our incredible server, Jill. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make our evening special. Her knowledge of the menu, perfect timing, and genuine friendliness made us feel so well taken care of. The restaurant also has such an incredible ambiance--lively yet elegant, with the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing dinner out. For dinner, I had the sea bass, which was absolutely delicious--perfectly cooked and full of flavor. My husband ordered the 8 oz. filet, which was tender and cooked exactly as requested. We shared the Italian chopped salad, fresh and flavorful, and finished with the cheesecake, which was rich, creamy, and the perfect ending. What truly made the night stand out, though, was Jill. She anticipated everything we needed before we even had to ask and made the whole experience feel effortless and welcoming. Service like hers is rare and so appreciated. We'll definitely be back--and will be asking for Jill! read more

It's been some time since we were last there, but we were celebrating a special anniversary and what better place than Spaghattini's to do so. I ordered the wild mushrooms, chicken and roasted garlic, Caesar salad, Ahi Tower, and my wife ordered the Chilean Seabass. For dessert, we share an espresso with vanilla bean ice cream. It has a name, but I forget. Service was great. Food came out right away. I drink a lot of water so it was nice that there was a bus boy always there every time my glass went empty to fill it with water. My wife loved the Chilean Seabass. My pasta was good. The Ahi Tuna was excellent. The ice cream was different and interesting. It was my birthday and I'm in the rewards club so they took off $50 from my bill. Sweet! read more

Well, it's finally time to update that last review, after an off experience prior to my last visit, things have changed for me in a positive aspect. Patrick, the general manager reached out to me and personally made sure that I was taken care of for the off night that I had there. I've been back multiple times since that experience and it's time to let you know that everything since then has been great. The service is never an issue here as all of the servers are great. The bus boys are amazing and I guarantee you you will have a positive experience when dining with them. Going back to what I'm used to the food.
