Wow! The Spaghetti Shack had the BEST spaghetti in a bucket I’ve ever had!!!! We had quite the party with us and the bucket and more came out very timely. We had a bucket of original spaghetti with pink sauce, 2 meatballs, breaded chicken, mozzarella, and much much more. The lady working was really awesome and patient with our wild group! Signing the wall was a great signature touch. Outside they had benches, horseshoes, and tether ball! We sat, ate, played, and had a blast of a time! I wouldn’t call this the Spaghetti Shack, I would call this the SPAGHETTI HOME!!

Ok so in last few weeks I kept hearing around town how the spaghetti shack has new owners and the place is now great once again. So I went in because I miss eating the spaghetti and meatballs. I gotta say, the hospitality from the new owners is what won me all over again! It now has a Ma and Pop kinda feeling and they made me feel welcomed there, like as though I was a long time old buddy with them..lol. I ordered up my ole fav plate w meatballs and I wasn't disappointed. Food was great! I am Making the shack my favorite place to go eat again! Thanks to the new owners! Love your new style all around, in and out!

This location has recently changed ownership to Paul and Tammy. The hospitality of this new ownership team is remarkable from new seating inside the restaurant to the enhanced taste of their spaghetti sauce. [Future seating plans for inside the restaurant are forthcoming]! From the first bite of their spaghetti and meatball special accented with a larger portion of mouth watering garlic bread, every single bite thereafter was more than delicious! I will even go so far as to rate this meal a 9 out of 10, and I'll say that the spaghetti sauce is the BEST in this area of The White Mountains! I enjoyed my dining experience and I will be back! I highly recommend this restaurant! Best of luck to you, Tammy and Paul! 🙏☀️😁🙋‍♀️

Let me just say the people here are fantastic. This guy I think is the owner definitely made my day. So I had a little certificate I got from my mom who got from her boss and apparently it's really old he said that he hasn't seen that in a while. I love spaghetti I'm a huge pasta Italian fanatic. So for me to get these was already golden enough. So I'm on my lunch break and I thought heck why not go get some spaghetti. I walked in and already the energy was just calming and relaxing and I showed them the certificate and they got me my food. It was super quick and a super friendly interaction. In the back I heard him ask if it was a meatball meal and it wasn't it's just a regular noodle and sauce meal. And I said oh that's okay I don't really like meatballs anyways I'm not really big fan of

Stopped by today to get some spaghetti & meatballs to go. I loved the meatballs. They were tender, juicy, moist and tasty. Also, liked the pasta and sauce. Although, we felt that the sauce was too thick. Maybe needed more water or something. But, it did taste really good to me. My dad did not like the sauce. He did eat both of the meatballs (with gusto) and some of the pasta, though. For the record, he is kind of picky since he was a chef for 30 years in Hawaii before he retired. He worked for many years (25 I think) at the Sheraton Moana Surfrider Hotel in Waikiki. Also, specialized in Italian cuisine working at an Italian restaurant for 5 years. I was a little bit upset with him for not finishing his meal. :-( Let me tell ya somethin' about meh, I really don't like wasting food and espec
