Yes! That OG Vince's spaghetti hits really good, like, really good... not quite as good as mine, ha! But it brings back special memories for someone very important in my life. When she requested dinner here in memory of her best friend, I was more than happy to oblige. The menu is simple, and honestly, that's all that matters. The service is always great, and portions are generous enough for leftovers. I've been thinking about trying the to-go dinner since it's half the price...wondering if the portion size is smaller, but I might just give it a shot anyway. Vince's always has that comforting, nostalgic vibe, and it's a spot I'll keep coming back to. Support small business y'all! Ps lol didnt even take a pic of the spaghetti, I was that excited! read more

This place has been around forever. I know all my friends love this place and I've been here a couple times. It's been a while so I brought my nephew back here again yesterday. Overall, it was just OK, I really don't get the hype. So sorry. The salad is basic lettuce with a little bit of carrots. The minestrone soup was OK. And I thought the spaghetti was just OK as well like I said it's a popular location so it is worth a try. read more

Nostalgic, delicious, and I will never stop coming here! Their spaghetti sauce is unlike any i've ever tasted and it will always be a place my family loves to go have dinner and to buy sauce! It's not fancy, it can sometimes be rushed, but the food is always good. read more

Vince's Spaghetti is so nostalgic for me. It brings me back to my childhood days going with my family. So many wonderful memories. It hasn't changed either. The food and service are always great. We always get their Spaghetti with Meat Sauce. It's so hearty, meaty, and filling. They give you such generous portions, too. My kids eat it up. And you have to try their cheese bread, but their garlic bread is also really yummy. Of course for dessert, no question, you have to get their Spumoni. My kids' favorite flavor in the Spumoni was no surprise, chocolate. If you want good Italian food at a reasonable price, come here. read more

A classic family owned restaurant in Ontario which had its unique Italian family style setup. A wonderful limited selection of Italian pasta dishes that are very comforting and delicious. You can pick from there classic Spaghetti with rich meat sauce or Mastaccioli. You're better off ordering the full meal that includes soup, salad, garlic or cheese bread and pasta. The servings are very generous. I get the half order and still have left overs to take home and it tastes just as delicious reheated!! The service is great and fast. The restaurant is so large, seating for all party sizes. So if you're in the mood for classic Italian comfort food, Vince's is the way to go!! They also have a second newer location in Rancho Cucamonga, which is nice but prefer the classic vibes!!! read more

I'm 71 years old and I started coming here as a child. I lived nearby for decades and ate here regularly. I moved away about 33 years ago but return every time I'm anywhere near. There is something magical about a place that really hasn't changed much over the decades. They still have the original 1 cent gum machine I got SQUARE green gum out as a little kid. I cannot resist putting a penny in it every time I visit. (:-) And this was the first place my parents treated me to Junior Mints that are still available on the check out counter. They offer what I call TASTE SENSATIONS that I simply cannot find anywhere else. Things like garlic bread dipped in THEIR house Italian salad dressing. And again...garlic bread dipped in their famous meat sauce. I used to order the meatball sandwich MADE on GARLIC BREAD and dip THAT in the dressing but I realized I was happiest with just a cup of meat sauce. Yes the spaghetti is great if you are a big pasta person but I'm more of a garlic bread person so the garlic bread, I use to scoop up meat sauce, is MY THING...and yes I frequently dip the bread in the dressing before I scoop up the meat sauce. (:-) I LOVE Vinces Spaghetti. I will return here every chance I get. And YES as big as the place is, it can still get packed. If you're in a rush, call and ask if they still take reservations. CLOSED WEDNESDAYS! If you find this review helpful please VOTE! read more

Well, what do I say? This place has been here for over 75 years. And that's just a little bit surprising. At $24 a plate, I was a bit underwhelmed. The meat sauce was runny (ew) but the spaghetti itself was alright. The garlic bread was toasted just fine but it had almost no garlic butter at all. The drinks are $4 and no refills? Disappointed. Not saying go to Olive Garden. Maybe...cook this meal at your house. $60 with tip for two average plates of pasta. read more

Shared the spaghetti lunch with meat sauce special with my mom at the restaurant and ordered 2 spaghetti with meat sauce to go and 2 meatballs. I do give the spaghetti 4.3 stars. But the meatballs for almost 4 dollars I would've thought they would've been bigger, but when I got home and I looked at them, they look like they would be size for a sandwich. If I order them again, it would be only because my family enjoyed them. I didn't care. read more

Horrible service, waited 20 min to find out they gave our food to someone else. Get it together MANAGEMENT!!!

Vince's Spaghetti in Ontario has, for over 50 years, has been a favorite spaghetti restaurant for us. Today, it was majorly disappointing. We arrived at about 1:30 pm (1/2 hour before its lunch closing) and our spaghetti was almost tasteless and very mediocre. The sauce was extremely watery to the point of almost being tasteless. Never go there 1/2 hour to 1 hour before closing and expect the finest. We didn't finish what we ordered because we were so unimpressed. AND we felt hurried out by our server. read more

Food is pretty good everything was cooked to perfection and the service isn't to bad 30 min wait is a little much our server was really sweet and on top of everything yes read more

It's sad to see the once great Vince's take a serious turn downward. Now I understand why the restaurant was half empty on a Saturday evening. I have been to this location dozens of times over the last 5 decades. Something has been off the last few times I've been here. The quality has not kept up with ever increasing prices. I get the feeling, this icon of a restaurant has lost its heart. read more

Our go to when we're craving spaghetti. The spaghetti with meat sauce and an order of cheese bread always make our tummy's happy. The place is always packed and there's always a lot of people waiting to be seated. Service is always done right. The servers are so nice and take great care of their customers. Food comes out quick. We have never waited long, after ordering, to get our delicious plates of spaghetti. read more

Nostalgia comes to mind when we visited this spot. This place was recommended to us by a parent we met at a sporting event. She used to live in the neighborhood and still comes to eat here when she's around. This restaurant is definitely old school, from the outside facade to the interior decor it looks like little has changed. It originally opened in 1945 and from the looks of things continue to draw in customers. The lighting is a little dark but not too bad. The main menu is simple, spaghetti, lasagna, and a couple of sandwiches, sides, and beverages including alcohol. The way I can describe the spaghetti sauce is classic Americana. There's a lot of ground beef and I think just the right amount of dark tomato sauce. The lasagna was also great. I felt like it had the perfect mix of the sauce, the pasta, and the filling. You can also tell that they didn't use the same sauce as the spaghetti even though they looked the same the difference was subtle. Lastly make sure to bring your appetite because their serving size is enough to fill you up 3 times over. Our server was extremely nice, she came by and would check on us often. If you are ever in the neighborhood AND VERY HUNGRY stop by and this neighborhood landmark and enjoy a plate or of some classic home cooked pasta. read more

I'm sorry but I really can't understand why this restaurant is so popular. I experienced poor parking and twenty minute wait for seating on a Saturday night. Our waitress was the highlight of the evening, after being seated in banquet room type area. In my opinion, the bland meat sauce spaghetti and garlic bread along with a salad swimming in Italian dressing was a disaster, especially for the price. This was the second time I've ate at Vince's over the years and neither time was it my choice. I will, kindly, decline any more invitations to dine there. read more

I have been coming here since I was a baby and this is and will always be my childhood favorite restaurant ever. The food i always will get is the Vince's full dinner the spaghetti and I always love how they make it. The meat sauce is always the best especially on a nice toasted cheese bread and the salad is my favorite I mean cmon. I love the service here everytime I come in and everyone is always so nice and the way this restaurant looks let's me know I'm gonna eat really good because they dont mess around with their food! Amazing place to come and will always be back. read more

This restaurant used to be a favorite of ours, which makes this experience especially disappointing. From the moment we arrived, service felt off. The hostess barely acknowledged us and told us to "just go sit at the booth on the left." No greeting, no kids menus, no explanation. Another couple came in after us and was treated the same way, seated in the booth next to ours. Despite arriving after us, that couple had their drink order taken and delivered before we were even greeted by a server. We were left sitting and waiting, unsure if anyone was aware we were there. When our waitress finally came by, it was clear she wasn't the problem , she was overwhelmed and ended up being given at least three additional tables. Meanwhile, the manager and at least five other employees were standing around, which made the lack of organization and leadership very noticeable. If you are craving their food I would suggest doing a takeout order or visiting another location. read more

My kids love the spaghetti, great fast service. Always call I. My orders and they are ready.

I went there for dinner last night with family and once again good experience. I've been there since the early 80's, worked briefly there with my Mom. It wasn't too busy on a Friday night dine in or take out. We were seated and served drinks right away. Didn't wait very long to order our food, most of the party ordered lasagna with meat sauce while I had Vince's dinner with meat ball and lite meat sauce. I added the provolone cheese. Server was very busy but attentive with not long wait bringing food and refill. Everything was very good as usual. I usually like to eat there for lunch cause the half order is more portions and filling. read more

I'm shocked to see that I haven't posted a review here before as Vince's Spaghetti has been a constant staple in my life since childhood. There's no place like it and it's my #1 restaurant recommendation in this area. The food quality, price, taste, and value is unmatched - they don't have a massive menu, but what they do have on the menu, they do RIGHT. I have so many fond memories at this restaurant (graduation parties, birthday parties, date nights, etc.) and even more memories of Vince's to-go meals at family gatherings and other hosted events. Naturally, Vince's Spaghetti was my requested first meal back home after delivering my daughter. I used her 2-day old name as the "name on the order" and couldn't NOT share the news with the employee who took our pick-up order over the phone. To our surprise, the restaurant treated us to two complimentary desserts to celebrate the occasion and this new mommy enjoyed each bite! We will forever be grateful for this gesture (see pictures) and Vince's has a new fan as of March 2, 2024. read more

We came for a large family meal and were not disappointed. Grandma has been coming since she was a kid! Large portions and super tasty. We got spaghetti with and without meat sauce, meatballs, french dip sandwiches, soups, salads, and huge garlic and cheese french bread rolls. Everything tasted great. We even got huge containers of soup to take home!!! Highly recommend! Thank you Crysta for taking such good care of us! read more

I find it interesting that DoorDash did not post my previous negative review of this restaurant (on DoorDash reviews for this restaurant). There was nothing crude or inappropriate about the review. I called the restaurant. I was on hold for over 10 minutes to speak with the manager. I was told by Allie that they acknowledged my preferences but they were "slammed" the evening in question. That is no excuse for bad service. A quality restaurant performs well under all circumstances. Vince's and DD customer service is less than mediocre at best. I will be sharing this experience with friends that travel to this area, order meals using DoorDash and other delivery services, and that also dine out. Avoid Vince's at all costs! I'm over it with Vince's. Bye, bye. read more

I usually love this place and have never had a bad experience--until tonight. We came in as a party of 15 for dinner, and the host at the front was unbelievably rude, treating us like we were an inconvenience rather than paying customers. It honestly felt like they were doing us a favor by even acknowledging us, as if we were getting dinner for free. I was this close to walking out. Thankfully, our waitress Krista was absolutely amazing and completely turned things around. She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. If it weren't for her, this visit would've been a total loss. Management really needs to address how guests are greeted at the door--it sets the tone for the whole evening. read more

The food is actually so bomb and delicious, and genuinely some of the best homemade spaghetti there is. The restaurant has a nice, italian style ambiance. The service when I went to sit down was good, and our waiter was really nice. I absolutely recommend Vince's spaghetti 10 times out of 10. I always get the spaghetti with meat sauce, and the portion lasts me daysss! read more

Can't believe I haven't wrote a review here since I been here a hundred times! You cannot beat old fashioned spaghetti! Menu is simple, solid, salad, pasta. Menu isn't extensive so it should take a long time to order. I believe spaghetti, lasagna, or manicotti. The prices are amazing for the amount you get. If I lived closer, I would come more often. Place is usually busy. Don't forget to add a meatball! And ask for light dressing cuz they drench it a little too much read more

Vince's Spaghetti - Full Order Pasta Dinner - Italian Near Me - Ontario, California

Food is okay. Interesting flavor of meat sauce, kinda sweet which I liked but they didn't give much. They had a good deal of Pasta, Salad, Soup, and Bread for $25! The Bread was super yummy. Service wise was meh too, I felt rushed despite it not being busy. Inside is intimate vibes and it's relaxing. I liked it a lot. Will I come back here again? Maybe if I am in the area and crave Italian. But not impressed enough to make it my go to. read more

Vince's Spaghetti - Spaghetti with Meat Sauce 7/10 - Italian Near Me - Ontario, California

Vince's is a little family owned restaurant with a simple menu and large portions! We used to come here when we lived in SoCal, now we come here every time we vacation here. Food: 4.5/5 We really enjoy the food the food here. The pasta we have got every time is a 5/5. The soup is really good as well. The salad is ok, but it is very simple and mine was slightly over dressed. The portions are very large. The dinner comes standard with a "Half" portion and it is so filling for one person. Atmosphere: 4/5 I really like the atmosphere here. It may not be for everyone but, I like the dim lighting large dining room areas and the overall feel. It definitely is a comfort feel for me and it has a classic old school family restaurant vibe. Vince's has been here since 1945 and their outside sign has the classic nostalgic feel. Cool little piece of info: The original house that the owner live/lived on is right next door in the parking area. Customer Service: 4/5 Our service this trip was pretty good. Our waitress was quick and polite. She also recommended a good beer. The only reason I'm docking a point is because I was charged for the wrong dish on one of the meals, but I just paid it. At Vinces, you pay the bill at the front desk area. So, after I received my bill, I didn't see my server anymore. In the past though I have also got good service. Price: 5/5 I think it is priced well for the amount of food you get. The "Vince's Dinner" is around $20 and includes a soup, salad, garlic or cheese bread and a half portion of pasta. The beers and wine are very reasonably priced. Parking: 5/5 There is a large parking lot with a ton of parking! Vince's to me is just a cool, nostalgic, classic family Italian restaurant. I have personal ties to this restaurant so it always has a special place for me. If you are in or near the Ontario area of SoCal, it is definitely worth a trip out to try it out! I consider it a local gem! read more

The wife and I went here for dinner Saturday night a little after 5 pm. Parking lot was full, but no wait inside got seated right away. Took a bit for a server to come by. I guess our server had a large party also. Another server brought our drinks took our order and brought out our soup and salad. Then the regular waitress brought our dinner out. Mine was cold except for the middle, even the meatball was cold. Took most of it home heated it up tonight for dinner added some meatballs and made some cheese toast. It was pretty good read more

I absolutely love this place..! I've been coming for 30+ years and still the same flavor. Service is always fast weather you dine in or take out. The ambience is classic diner style. Place looks out dated but, I tell you the food is absolutely a staple in this area for years. The sauce is one of a kind flavor hitting the pallet in all the right spots, blending with the homemade style pasta , a flavor you go bananas for. I tell you this is definitely a flavor to enjoy each and every time. So grab an extra shirt and dive in on this delicious food, will leave you wanting more. And it reheats perfectly, tastes better the next day . Yum and yum read more

My husband and I were so very disappointed in Vince's last night. Our family was seated and ignored by our waitress for over 10 minutes last night and they were not busy at all. She finally said after us waiting so long that she'd be right with us. After nearly another 10 minutes went by we said forget it and decided to leave. When the host asked if everything was alright we said no and that the waitress needs to be more attentive to customers. It was a special family dinner for his birthday, but it wasn't ruined thankfully because the next place we went to more than made up for it with delicious food and service. We've been coming here for over 30 years and I've never been more disappointed in this location. read more

1st and last time I eat here. The worst meal I've had in YEARS. First off the salad was absolutely drenched in Italian dressing to the point it was swimming in it. The Lasagna was hands down the worst I've ever had. Any frozen lasagna from the store would be better I had 2 bites and knew something was off and in fear of getting sick did not eat anymore. The only savior was the cheese bread was edible. Restaurant was dirty,dinky and service was meh. Do not waste your money at $25 a plate you're better off anywhere but here. read more

Vince's spaghetti is such a classic simple spot. It is one of the only places around so cal that specializes in a few simple items and that's it. As simple as it may be, their spaghetti with meatballs can cure my sickness. I've also gotten their masta however you spell it and their French dip which is heavenly in itself. Their spumoni and carrot cake are also so good. The main thing though is the waitress. Everyone has always been super nice but the lady we had today (Saturday night) was fantastic. She had her hair done up all nice and high and had almost a Jersey accent? Super super sweet lady. She was very busy with all the tables but you can tell she was doing her best. Love this place, and super cheap food in this economy! read more
