I've had better in a microwave meal when I was a child. I saw the food others were getting as I hoped my Pasta with Cheese would come out fast were all slop in a container. Maybe their food tasted better but I highly doubt it. You have to order on a tablet despite the number of workers in the back standing around doing nothing. Meals take FOREVER even thou I'm positive they are just reheating most of the food based on the taste. The food hall is fine but subpar for what I expected from the outside. The cleaning staff are the best at customer service and friendliness. Possible one of the worst places in Victoria.

The spaghetti allo scoglio was amazing from the presentation to the flavour, everything was top notch. Service was also great the staff are really friendly!

FOOD Chicken Alfredo Ravioli ($22.75) Ravioli by itself might have been boring or tasteless but with chicken already? Yum! Comes with bread, soup, and salad also. Roasted Garlic Chicken ($24.25) Comes with spaghetti and tomatoes and it's great! Also comes with bread, soup, and salad. Child's Meatball Spaghetti ($8.25) Comes with a drink and it's filling for small children! Tiramisu ($7.95) A reasonable size for the price - the taste was pretty decent! === 3. SERVICE It was pretty good, from reservation to service in English, to speed of service! === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's better sitting outside when weather permits - with uncovered patio works well for dinners generally speaking but it's also clean and decent indoors as well. The environment just looks intentionally wooden and a little older inside. Baby strollers and wheelchairs have no problem fitting in. Parking is a little uusual in that it's based on your luck with street parking or parkade parking a few buildings over.

Being fans of the American version of the restaurant, we had to try it while visiting Victoria. We…read morewalked in at lunch and ordered our favorite - mizithra on spaghetti along with two Italian cream sodas. This dish never, ever disappoints. So, SO good. Note to Americans who are used to getting the soda in a special collectable glass. They do not have those here. Just the yummy soda itself. Service was good and it came out faster than some of the other Old Spaghetti Factory's I've been at. Clean and of course that great atmosphere. Great location too, within walking distance of the ferry terminal, the Royal BC Museum and many hotels in the area.

Had the brownie for dessert which was also delicious and much larger than I was expecting. Service was excellent, our server was very knowledgeable and tried to make the experience as authentic as possible for us, however keep in mind we went at a slower time. Ambiance is very average, but the restaurant is nice inside and well kept. We went around 2pm so it was very quite but I could see this being a popular spot for dinner due to the lack of restaurants in that area. Overall would recommend and will definitely go again!

Most dishes we ordered ranged from great to amazing. Great wine. The steak with polenta and grilled portobello mushroom ("Manzo"), the boar ragu (off the features menu), and the hazelnut gelato were our favorites and I would definitely order those again. The only item we didn't like was the crispy broccoli appetizer (turned to dust in our mouths). It was a wonderful experience and we will absolutely be back. Highly recommend it.

All of it was awesome, especially the fettuccini! There seemed to be some sort of issue with our reservation when we arrived which caused a 5 minute delay which did not bother us at all.

This place is AMAZING! I have been here twice on different trips up to Victoria (my favorite place…read moreever!) and each time the service was wonderful, the food is amazing (but so hard to finish, almost too yummy, def get a box) and the matre D is the sweetest man in the world.
