The Old Spaghetti Factory has been a landmark in Toronto for 40 years. Originally a blacksmith shop from 1898, the old warehouse was converted into a restaurant in 1971 with high ceilings, European stained glass windows and an 100 year old carousel. Many people happily recall their childhood memories while bringing their own kids to continue the tradition of wearing spaghetti. Adult meals include soup or salad, sourdough bread and spumoni ice cream for dessert. The prices are definitely reasonable for a belly stuffing family excursion. The kids menu runs for under $10 and kids will be delighted with their free ice cream.

- Family Friendly: "Bring your kid hungry. If they finish the first bowl of pasta, the second is free. Spaghetti and meatballs also come with a salad or veggies and dip, which they can suffer through in order to get to their ice cream at the end."
- Best for Family Friendly Because: Reliable food for a low price, with interesting artifacts to keep the kids focused on dinner.
