Food: Bland taste, redundant sauce
The Spaghetti Bender's food cuisine doesn't win any awards for creativity - the menu is often criticized as unoriginal and monotonous. Despite a bland taste and a repetitive sauce job, praise is fairly consistent for its portions - they are generously large and greatly satisfy hunger. However, food freshness seems to walk a fine line that teeters between average to high quality.

Okay Quality
Food can be average, but freshly cooked with good ingredient quality.
Bad Variety
Hit or miss dishes; food sometimes covered in same redundant sauce.

Vibe: Romantic vibe, limited drinks
The atmosphere at this establishment more than makes up for its culinary shortcomings. A very positive eclectic blend of cozy and romantic ambiance permeates through the restaurant. The entertainment is considered quality, and it earns high marks for its suitability for date night. However, the drinks selection is noticeably lacking, with no cocktails on offer and a limited range of beers.

Bad Drinks
Limited beer selection and no cocktails available, disappointing some patrons.
