    I have been to 7 in the United States. Most in Fresno California my home town. Was at the opening day at Rancho Mirage. I have also eaten in the Vancouver Canada location. Great Memories.

      Sounds like you are making it a mission to eat at all of them. Thanks for watching.

      My man! I’m also a Central Valley man and I love the Fresno one! It’s still there by Shaw Ave. and still good after all those years. Go Dogs 😁

    Use to eat at the Fullerton location - and it was always packed with customers. Good food!
    Thanks for another walk down memory lane. 👏🏻

    Yes! The boy looooves trains, so we are at Fullerton station on a frequent basis. He naturally gravitates toward the OSF right there (in the old Santa Fe building). He loves the experience of sitting in an old modified coach and eating his pasta while the thunder of freight and Amtrak or Metrolink trains go by. Pretty interesting to find out about the history of the brand. Thanks for producing this video.

      thanks for sharing your memories. Also, have you been to the Travel Town Train museum in Los Angeles? Lots of nice history there.

      @@EricCProductions76 What a great museum! We are there if not at Fullerton. Even had his birthday party there. Maybe an idea for a future video?

    I was to the one in TORONTO (I think that that is in a newer building though) and the one in NASHVILLE, in the mid 2010's. Sadly... it was completely destroyed in the Christmas day bombing in NASHVILLE in 2020. But you have to love the sign...at 4:35...the letters are made to look like noodles! Very creative. Good posting, BTW.

    I heard of this place though I've never been to one. But there was a place in Buffalo called The Macaroni Company and it looked very similar to the Spaghetti Factory. It was in a really old building that I think used to be some kind of warehouse, and the decor looked just the same with all that old-timey looking stuff and old photographs on the wall and antique lights. It closed about 10 years ago and I think it became The Cheesecake Factory or whatever it's called, and then a nightclub. It's just weird that they were so similar

    Watching in 2023. One of my parents' first dates was The OSF in Spokane, WA. Next March they will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary; there must be something magical in the mizithra!
    I've been to the Newport Beach, San Diego, Fullerton, Sacramento, San Marcos, Phoenix, Denver and Honolulu locations.

    I so remember eating in the trolley car at their Fullerton location. Good times as a kid. Your channel has me thinking of all the old restaurants I used to go to in OC. How about videos on Fuddruckers and Po' Folks?

    Thank You for sharing this video! I only knew the OSF location in my hometown Hamburg / Germany. It was a huge success in the mid- 80´s, with long waiting lines. This despite the fact that there where several other italian restaurants close by. It was located in Poststrasse 20, 20354 Hamburg, Germany in a red brick building (building still there). A quite fancy place with expensive fashion stores, must have been expensive to rent even back in the 80´s. I still miss it, had many nice evenings there together with my friends.

    I’ve heard of this place I’ve never been there before though, but I do love spaghetti 🍝😊. AWSOME video dude, also can you do the videos of Harris Teeter Grocery Stores, and also the defunct Bi Lo Grocery Store which closed in 2021.

    When is the OSF going to build another location in Hollywood? I missed that location. The only one nearby is Duarte's.

    We never had these out here in NY, but we did have Spaghetti *Warehouse* when I was a kid. I'll try and hit up the OSF next time I'm out west.

    So I assume that this is different from the Spaghetti Warehouse, which has very similar theming.

    It might have helped if the spaghetti didn't taste like it came out of can!
    Seriously, if you are going to make spaghetti your trademark, then it better be special.
    Throw in there marginal service and dark, weird seating arrangements and why go?
    I can make better with a stock tomato sauce and lots of other goodies.
