1/10/25 Finally, an OSF closer to us!! It does feel like the Okd Spaghetti Factory vibe of the old location in Hollywood (sadly no longer in operation). It has that vintage feel.
We were quoted 25 minutes wait but actually seated by our lovely host in about 9, SCORE! Staff are friendly & welcoming. I was not able to explore as I originally planned because it felt a bit more cramped as it was very busy (too many patrons). It does feel like the Hollywood location in terms of the vintage decor. At the old Hollywood OSF, the Trolley is an original cab that was helicoptered in to fit inside the structure. You can tell it was very old & worn unlike the one here.
Our server, Aaron, was fairly attentive. He took our order & our food arrived shortly. For the first time, Hubby ordered something different, chicken piccata, but didn't read what it was served with, angel hair pasta with mizithra--which he particularly did not care for at all. Got my usual, hearty manager's special clam & mizithra (w/ browned butter, the aroma is heavenly & so delightfully appetizing).
I love their pesto dressing & I requested for a larger side of it, Aaron brought a small container of it. I am taking a note of that. Once our mains arrived, he asked if there was anything else, I requested for another loaf of their amazing sourdough bread, as the one previous was not as hot. Hubby had to get the attention of a busboy to bring us that bread.
Hubby loved the chicken piccata, I loved my usual dish-delicious! I usually order it as "hearty" so I plan for a second meal to-go. That second loaf was hot, enjoyed it immensely.
This location is in a plaza where Home Depot is, as well as Little Cesar's pizza, Auto Zone & other businesses.
It's looking like we found a winner! Hopefully we'll have a more attentive server when we visit next. Or maybe I just need to be more convincing or aggressive with my requests
