The Old Spaghetti Factory

Frommer's Review

With its ornate Victorian elegance, you'd never guess that this restaurant was once a warehouse. Where boxes and bags were stacked, diners now sit surrounded by burnished wood. There's stained and beveled glass all around, antiques everywhere, and plush seating in the waiting area. The front of the restaurant is a large and very elegant bar. Now if they'd just do something about that trolley car someone parked in the middle of the dining room. A complete meal -- including a salad, bread, spumoni ice cream, and a beverage -- will cost you less than a cocktail in many restaurants. A great spot to bring the family, this is one of the cheapest places to get a meal in The District.
