In Short – Whimsical antiques and decorative items--velvet armchairs, vintage-looking fringed lamps and booths made from iron bedsteads--fill the dining room. The OSF Classics menu offers spaghetti with a choice of mushroom sauce, rich meat sauce, browned butter and feta-like mizithra cheese sauce, and more. Other popular favorites are the baked lasagna--layers of noodles, tomato sauce and four kinds of cheese--and the fettuccine Alfredo. Meals include a green salad, fresh-baked bread and ice cream.

Editor's Tips

Know Before You Go:
The kids' menu includes smaller-portioned versions of spaghetti dishes, as well as macaroni and cheese and grilled cheese.
Look Good:
Watching your waistline? Ask your server about the low-carb pasta option.

RUDE! RUDE! RUDE!

by bikermike68 at Citysearch

First...the parking sucks! Had a carry out order and walked into the place and was greeted by 2 very rude people. I had to ask for my order and then I didn't even get a "thank you." The food has went down hill too. I won't be back!! I will go to Cincinnati if I want Spaghetti Factory!! The restaurant in Louisville needs to give their employees some classes on being friendly......CLOWNS!!!!!

Great Everything

by bikerjan at Citysearch

My boyfriend was hesitant about this place because he doesn't especially like spaghetti, and when we arrived, the wait was 30-45 minutes. We were about to walk out when the hostess said that if we went upstairs and found a table we could seat immediately. Well, we found a table right off. First suggestion, if you don't want to wait, go upstairs. The atmosphere is just as nice and you get to eat right away.

Our waiter, Cory, was fabulous. Very friendly and courteous. The food was AWESOME!! I had the Jumbo Crab Ravioli with Alfredo Sauce. The pasta was fresh and the filling was fabulous. The Alfredo was creamy and cheesy and perfect. The price was right and my boyfriend really liked the spaghetti and his spinach ravioli. I would suggest this restaurant to anyone.

Food is terrible

by cmclin2 at Citysearch

Great location and cute lamps, but the bottom line is the food is terrible. I've been several times and tried different menu items each time and have not been impressed once with the food. I would never go to OSF by choice.

One of Louisville's Bargains

by luavulman at Citysearch

There must be reviewers on here with personal axes to grind who trash this establishment. The food is good, the atmosphere is pretty and fun, the prices are cheap. The only problem is that they don't take reservations and the wait for a table will make you rush to get to the strat of the play up the street. Louisville has some great bargain places among the many overpriced places, and the OSF is a gem.

STAY AWAY

by KSulzer at Citysearch

Would never reccommend this place.

Management is a joke and it shows internally.

Tried to make reservations for a birthday dinenr for 18 people this past Saturday for the following Friday. Called at 2:00, 3:00 & 6:00 and was told each time that the manager would call me right back. Finally after recalling at 7:00 "Pat" the so called managed picked up the phone after 15 minutes on hold. You could tell he was put out. Said he didn't have time for me he was in the middle of dinner..

Ditto's you can thank this clown for the 18 person reservation you now have for Friday.

STAY CLEAR OF THIS PLACE!!!!!

  • Pros: None that I see
  • Cons: Poor Service & Poor Management
