We ordered spaghetti. We did not get spaghetti. What we got was undercooked pasta that was still a tad bit too hard. Toppings were correct at least. And overall tasted decent.

Así que fui a comer pan de ajo y espagueti a la bolonesa y estaba bastante lleno y lleno (una buena señal). Pedí un plato de spag con un poco de queso encima). y quería un poco de queso pan de ajo. El pan de ajo se había agotado (solo eran las 12:10 pm y no había relleno en la bolonesa (que me cobraron 20 p). Hay un caos en el diseño de la tienda en el que la caja está a la izquierda lado y el punto de recogida es el mostrador a la derecha, pero esto es difícil de entender al entrar en la tienda.

I know this was a harsh score, given the pasta was fresh and really tasty (couldn’t fault it in fact) but the price was mental. I had half what you’d get in a Coco large, and paid more. The garlic bread was disappointing too - hard as rock, no seasoning and didn’t taste of garlic. I want to support small businesses, but can’t afford to pay £7.10 for that kind of portion size!

Solía venir aquí con bastante frecuencia, probablemente una vez por semana. El personal era amable y, aunque la comida no era extraordinaria, la comida estaba bien.Entonces, un día, una nueva persona me estaba sirviendo. Era algo mayor que el resto del personal y el estado de ánimo parecía algo hundido en general. Supongo que la nueva persona era el gerente.Ese día me cobraron un poco más, pero lo que realmente me sorprendió fue el tamaño de la porción. Era la mitad de lo que normalmente recibía. Le pregunté al geezer si eso era correcto, una porción tan pequeña que era prácticamente la mitad de lo que normalmente tenía. Dijo que sí y que no habría extra.Devolví mi comida, pedí que me devolvieran el dinero y nunca volví.Esa es la manera de enojar a tus leales clientes.No se vaya, muévalos de hambre, pronto se abrirá un lugar nuevo y mejor.

I work in Orega next to City Point and I am regular customer of Spagbowl. I’m there at least once a week and I loved their pasta- till now. I have ordered Salmon Farfalle today cause that is my favourite. Was busy I understand that however in my bowl was barely any salmon and no sign of creamy sauce.!!!Meal was so dry as all I had it was just pasta with barely any salmon bits..!!!! £6.99 for bowl of plain pasta.??? I am very disappointed. I should probably come back and return it but my break was about to end.!! Not sure if I will be back. I understand that this place is popular and busy however if you set standards - follow them.!!!

I was arranging catering for our work trip to London. We had all day meetings and lunch from noon-1pm. I requested they deliver at noon. Day of they said they would be there at 12:15pm. OK fine. I informed them I was down in the lobby waiting. At 12:30pm they emailed me saying they were 10 minutes away. At 12:55pm they finally showed up to deliver. I had 20 people waiting an hour for lunch and they ended up having to eat it during other presentations. This was unacceptable to me. The food though wasn't bad. I over ordered because I had no clue about portions. I would say make sure to have them deliver your food BEFORE you think you need it.

Trabajo en CityPoint frente a este lugar y soy un gran amante de la pasta, así que imaginé que esto sería el paraíso del almuerzo para mí. Pedí carbonara hace dos o tres años, que sabía solo a pasta y no un toque de carbonara. No regresé por bastante tiempo. Mi próxima visita (una promoción de CityPoint) Pedí boloñesa de espaguetis - esto estuvo bien, si no te importa mucha y mucha pasta y muy poco como complemento. Pero de nuevo, fue tan impresionante que no regresé. Hasta hoy. Volví a ordenar la carbonara en el apagado, la posibilidad de que mi primera vez fuera un golpe de suerte desafortunado. Se sacó algo de un recipiente grande a una pequeña sartén, se calentó durante un par de minutos y se me presentó. Pedí queso extra y me cobraron 40 p. Adicionales. Llegué a mi escritorio 2 minutos después para encontrar una pasta tibia, dura y completamente insípida. No "pancetta crujiente" - pero una carne grasa de alguna descripción. Era solo incomible y se fue directo a la papelera. 6. 20 para eso? Y eso fue una porción "pequeña". Arrancar. No volveré a hacer la 4ª visita.

I used to come here once a week, but today was the last time. The staff changed and is nowhere as friendly as they have been. They hiked the prices and made the portions smaller. When I asked what's going on, I was told that this is the right size of portion. The container was half full. The guy who said that this was right was a guy in a suit who I never saw there before. Sorry, you really lost a customer today, man in suit. Btw, the food is okay. The prices used to be, but smaller portions and higher prices don't combine...

There is a wide choice of tasty sauces and the pasta is added at the moment so I can have my favourite combination (eg penne bolognese). It is better than Coco di mama however not at the same level as Savure (which is also more expensive). Overall Spagbowl is a good take-away

I occasionally meet friends in the city and as it was particularly hot and the bars were crowded so we opted for a takeaway pasta and pasta salad from Spagbowl.Service was fast and the food was amazing! The most difficult thing was to decide what we wanted to eat :) I was torn between the penne arrabbiata and a mini pizza but went for the pasta option. My friend had the chicken pesto salad. We found some space on some nearby grass and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch and catch up.

I work near the Citypoint building in which Spagbowl is located and it's becoming my firm favourite lunch spot. I usually go for the carbonara and garlic bread - sooo nice and just like a taste of Italy at my small London desk! Very competitively priced as I'm finding salad bars seemed to be increasing their prices on the regular. Couldn't recommend it more and was shocked by other reviews that didn't praise it!

These guys buy their pasta from Tesco (or probably worse, if it's possible), they overcook it, add a store-bought sauce on it and happily hand it to you for 7 pounds. How are places like this allowed to exist is beyond me. Pity I can't rate this zero.

I bought a voucher for here whilst on a city break with my family. Spagbowl itself is a small eatery in the business district of Moorgate. We had spaghetti bolognese, garlic bread and soft drinks, we had the regular size portions which are huge, tasty authentic Italian style. The staff were attentive and very friendly. The only down point for us was seating, there is a small stool area which was occupied, and no seating outside, although this is a minor issue and would not stop me from recommending this establishment to anyone. I wish my office in Liverpool would have a spagbowl nearby.

I eat here once a week at least. Home cooked pasta just like your mum makes. Love it. Bit pricey at around £5 for regular and over £6 for large. But to be honest the regular portion is filling. The large is over kill. Will be back for sure. Garlic bread is great too.

You have to love this place, if only for the sheer mountain of food you get for your money. It's a monstrous (and delicious) bowl of spaghetti, covered in a well-stewed bolognese sauce. The only issue is that there's very limited space - about three seats - so if you don't have a desk near by, you might struggle to eat.

We were looking for somewhere warm and friendly, chances a walk-in. Staff were warm and friendly, and had a really lovely meal. Extensive wine list with lots of really good options by the glass and without getting into silly money plenty on offer by the bottle with a few very special ones on offer. Couldn’t fault the place and from the warmth of the service, I wouldn’t want to! Perfect place for a really enjoyable Italian meal with traditional Italian hospitality.

Overhyped “authentic” Italian food with low quality ingredients and poor cooking Extremely poor and horrific service from the owner/ manager I presume. Very rude, unfriendly and showed racist behaviour towards my foreign friends. That cocky old Italian man should be ashamed for his actions and it is difficult to believe such service can be up to standard in the industry. I don’t care if the restaurant has history or what so ever. The fact is that they are below average and worse than loads of other Italian restaurants in the area. Disappointing experience and do NOT recommend
