I love La Spaghettata!
It’s great if you want a cheap and cheerful meal that tastes nice! The vegetarian lasagna is lovely and the garlic bread with tomato is fab! There’s a help yourself salad bar too. (my favourite part of the meal is getting my bowl of salad with the lovely dressing!)
If you are going for something to eat before a good night out, then La Spaghettata is the place to go, provided you go early, the queue can get ridiculous. (more…)
If you’re looking for a cheap (arguably microwaved), pseudo-Italian eatery, La Spaghettata is for you. Obviously subjective, but for me ‘eating out’ should be a chilled-out, mellow and personal experience. At La Spaghettata, you are treated to an extremely limited menu of anglo-italian food (confusingly enough, food cooked by Italians to cater for the common British perception of what Italian food is supposed to taste like), a MILE long queue - yes it is popular, but cheap stodge so what do you expect.

I was looking for a quick bite to eat and decided to try Pizza Express in Durham, a rather large chain of restaurants, up and down the country, boasting over 300 across the UK. It was lunch time and it was quite busy with say 10 tables filled.
When me and my partner first entered the restaurant there was no-one to greet us, and we got the feeling that everyone was looking at us, this was a shame as it does make you feel quite uncomfterable. A chirpy young lady soon showed us to our seats, a stupidly small table which was no bigger than 3 foot wide. (more…)
