    What a fantastic experience! The restaurant has such a comfortable vibe. All that’s missing is a hearth and a roaring fire. The service was excellent! The food was amazing! We started with the full charcuterie, which was delicious. All of our meals were so flavorful and beautifully presented. Shrimp and grits, lamb shank, short ribs, and fried chicken. The pumpkin spice crème brûlée was a great way to end the meal. We cannot wait to come back for another great experience!

    My two granddaughters and I had a very good experience at spaghetti warehouse. We were on our way to see the Nutcracker and we wanted to try the spaghetti warehouse. Food was delicious. Everything was a OK. Towards the end of the evening though it did get pretty loud. But the open ceilings I can understand there would be a lot of noise. But we had a wonderful time.
