Celebrate at Spaghetti Warehouse

One of Columbus’ busiest restaurant weekends of the year is coming soon, and it feels SO good that things are finally (slowly) starting to get back to normal! If you’re like me, you’ve experienced this “busiest restaurant weekend in Columbus” one of two ways: A) You’ve dined for an Ohio State graduation or Mothers Day celebration sometime in the past or B) You’re in the service industry and you’ve worked it. I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing them both 😉 I won’t dive into the latter, but if you’re someone who’s looking for a dining out option for Mother’s Day or a graduation celebration this coming weekend, I have the perfect place for you, and that’s Spaghetti Warehouse!

Recently, I had the the opportunity to dine at Spaghetti Warehouse downtown. They’re such a “hidden” gem! This old warehouse on West Broad (right on the other side of the Scioto River downtown behind COSI). The location is PERFECT for graduation or Mothers Day – not only is there a ton of seating inside, but the parking lot is huge. I remember when I graduated from college (years ago… let’s not talk about that) and having to drive all the way to Easton for dinner because there wasn’t anywhere downtown that had enough space for parking for my family. Crazy! Even better, if you celebrate your graduation at Spaghetti Warehouse in the months of May or June, you will be gifted a free limited-edition SW graduation cup. (Limited to one cup per table, dine in only. While supplies last.)

Spaghetti Warehouse offers a menu big enough that there’s something for everyone, but I couldn’t NOT order the 15-Layer Lasagna. It takes 3 days to prepare and comes with your choice of a side salad or soup. I barely even ate half of this bad boy, but you know I had room for appetizers and dessert.

We were so impressed with the Toasted Ravioli – Crispy, breaded ravioli filled with 4 cheeses. Served with fresh tomato sauce and ranch dressing for dipping. I could have eaten those as my meal alone!

If lasagna isn’t you style, we also tried and enjoyed the Four Cheese Manicotti – 4 pasta tubes stuffed with a blend of Italian cheeses and topped with fresh tomato and Alfredo sauces. Served with famous sourdough bread and choice of side. Next time I go, I’m 100% trying the Double Down Chicken Parmigiana. It’s a double stack of chicken Parmigiana with layers of house-made Alfredo sauce, melted mozzarella, fresh tomato sauce, more melted mozzarella and finished with crispy pepperoni. All this atop a mound of spaghetti with your choice of sauce. INSANE, right??

We couldn’t end the meal by leaving without dessert. That’s just a sin in my book! Spaghetti Warehouse currently has a partnership with The Cheesecake Factory for desserts. We tried the Godiva Double Chocolate Cheesecake and OMG. The Godiva Cheesecake is baked with chunks of milk chocolate topped with rich chocolate mousse, chocolate ganache, and chocolate whipped cream. I’m not usually a big fan of chocolate cheesecake, but this sweetness hit the spot after a savory meal of red sauces and cheese.

It has likely been awhile since you’ve had the opportunity (or ability) to get the family together for a dine-out meal, and that’s a celebration in itself. Spaghetti Warehouse has the perfect festive atmosphere that’s great for getting together with your family or friends.

Not planning on celebrating Mother’s Day or a graduation next weekend? There’s still a great special that Spaghetti Warehouse is running this week to honor teachers for National Teacher Appreciation Week.  From May 3 through May 7, teachers that visit Spaghetti Warehouse in Columbus will receive a FREE Lasagna or Spaghetti and Meatball entrée.  Simply tell the staff you are a teacher to receive the free entrée. Limited to one entrée per table, dine in only.
