I love the new interior! It's homey and cozy. It's the perfect place for dinner with my friends and family.
I highly recommend the Vietnamese Garlic Spaghetti with Shirmp, Spaghetti with Pesto and Angus Roast Beef Belly. For dessert, my favorite was the Keyline Pie. It was the perfect blend of sweet and tartness.
The service staff was friendly and attentive.
I would definitely go back again to try their other dishes, cakes and coffee.
New Interior was good and they put holy basil for each table. It smells so good� we even asked owner where he bought it. And we enjoyed their food it was worth it �better than before
i love the new and minimalist look of tosh. it was different from the dark interiors of the past concept. appropriate for those mornings tou'd want to start fresh � the food was as good and delicious. the coffee was also smooth and velvety.would definitely come back �
It's always a great food,pleasant ambieance and warm service in the New Tosh cafe. One of my like to order is the Vienamese Garlic spaghetti and mocha cafe. Food presentation is a 5 star hotel experience in a affordable price.
Serving was adequate. The taste and flavors were spot on. Service was excellent.�

I love the new interiors and I love the spaghetti with meatballs. Will definitely come back! ���
On the day I first ate at Brown's Gourmet, the experience was so bad I wanted to eat somewhere else immediately, so I ended up walking to TOSH Cafe, which served excellent cake and wonderfully tender roast beef belly to cheer me up and eliminate all traces of Brown's Gourmet from my mind, body, and soul. I really think, given the pleasant lighting and the delicious food, you get your money's worth here.
First time to dine here and I wasn't disappointed.
We ordered their Vietnamese style slow roasted pork belly with pineapple rice, pesto pasta with chicken, and a fudge brownie.
We enjoyed everything. The meats were cooked perfectly. My companion specifically loved the pineapple rice. Meanwhile, I have a major sweet tooth so I really loved the brownie—so chocolate-y and moist.
They have free WiFi and the ambience is cozy and inviting. Also, plus points for the pretty and spotless restroom.
Would I come back? Definitely! 😊
P.S. This branch is by the road. They have a limited number of parking slots.
Dining at Tosh Cafe in Katipunan feels like you're dining in a hip library. I enjoyed the ambience as I went there to finish my book. Outlets were available for gadgets, music was loud enough for conversations to be still heard. I ordered one of their all day breakfast - spinach omelette... Enjoyed it though the serving was wanting. I enjoyed the salted mocha on ice 😁 and their choc mouse had just the right sweetness. Prices may be a little steep given their servings but I would definitely go back to taste their pastas.
TOSH is Italian comfort food at a very affordable price. The variety of dishes in their menu is just right. Servings are also generous. Ambience is great! Well-lit, layout not too crowded, plugs everywhere for laptops, big clean restroom. Service is also very efficient. Everyone who works here seems nice.
Fail-safe orders: 4 cheese or margherita pizza, pomodoro, carbonara, pesto with chicken, angus roast beef belly and bacon (from the breakfast menu) + flat white. Yum.
We actually eat at the ayala feliz branch (which is not here is zomato). Food was great, service was very nice and price wise okay. We love the food we ordered except for the garlic pasta (food was swimming in grease/oil) but the croquettes are the best 😘😘.
Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken with Salsa Verde and Mashed Potato: 4/5 - I ordered this because I wanted something not too filling. The chicken and mashed potato tasted good, there was enough seasoning in them. Even the Salsa Verde was pretty ok. The salad was a bit underwhelming, though. I expected a “happier” version of the salad on the side.
But will definitely be back to try their other pasta dishes.

It's our first time here. Although the place wasn't that big, the ambiance doesn't give a cramped feeling. We came here for breakfast and chose Organic Bacon, Egg and Garlic Rice for me and Homemade Bangus Sardine, Egg and Rice for my wife. We specified that the egg should be over hard and they complied with our request. My wife enjoyed her breakfast saying that the sardines tasted delicious and didn't have the fishy taste. On the other hand, my bacon, although very crispy, did not have the saltiness that I had expected. All in all it was a delightful experience, the service being efficient. The reason for the less than perfect rating was that they have parking space for only two cars.
By the way, TOSH stands for The Old Spaghetti House. Does that mean their most popular item in the menu is TOSH bread? Just trying to be punny. :)
it’s been a while (years!) since i visited a tosh cafe. their name then was the old spaghetti house. surprised about the make over — the look, the brand, the menu. i loved the pancake! the cakes were good. and the pasta is still superb. looks like i will return and visit more tosh cafe than before. kudos!
You can really tell the improvement of The Old Spaghetti House dishes in the all new TOSH Cafe. I love the plating, the flavor, and the ambience of the place. Also great for students for studying. I love their new dishes, which you won’t find in other restaurants. Their coffee is perfect for a sleepy and lazy afternoon in Katipunan. Service is also great. Great job.
Great food. Try their vietnamese pasta with shrimp! Great service. The staff were friendly. Serving size could be improved. They also accommodated us despite our number. Since the place is newly renovated, the facilities are all new and clean. Lunch date here would be ideal.

As the name implies, the place looks really old with the dim light. I can barely see my spaghetti. Haha... :-) I was just exaggerating. But I would say they serve the best tasting Italian spaghetti in an affordable price. ;-) Good for me, I was invited to here for a lunch meeting.
If you eat here, you must get the Sun dried Tomato Pesto with Grilled Chicken! It's a best seller for a reason.
The tangyness of the red tomatoes as well as the saltiness of the Parmesan drizzled over the dish is a great play on the taste buds. You can see that they incorporate all components of the sun dried tomatoes into the dish - the oil that the tomatoes are preserved in as well as some of the spices that it's been preserved in.
They don't treat the chicken that they put on top of the pasta as an afterthought. Paying extra for the grilled chicken is definitely worth it. The chicken breast, I believe, is grilled whole to ensure that it cooks evenly. It is then sliced into long strips so you can sparingly eat it together with the pasta. Absolutely lovely!
Dinning in The Old Spaghetti House is always a pleasurable experience; the place is cozy, the food is good, and the price is affordable. I guess those are the main reasons for their long standing reputation as a good place to dine.
When we went here for lunch, we ordered the Bolognese pasta and the Chicken Picatta with garlic pasta. I love their Chicken Piccata. As for their Bolognese, it's simple and it's delicious. The serving size of both meals is good for 1-2 person.
We also ordered the Margherita pizza and Five cheese. It's a regular sized thin crusted pizza. Again, simple yet delicious.
The mozzarella sticks we ordered were served a bit cold. However, the salsa on the side is really good.
We will definitely go back.
I have always had good memories and experiences from this place. Never a bad dining experience and the food I ordered was always briefly served and with all that I expected from it. I always go for the carbonara or the pasta Alfredo because student budget. But every once in a while, I partake in their seafood pizza which I adore.
This branch has always provided one of the most consistent good dining experiences for me.

For those who wants to feel nostalgic and get the homey feeling of your mom cooking spaghetti for you, try TOSH (The Old Spaghetti House), an Italian-inspired restaurant catering mostly pasta and pizza. Don’t be deceived with its luxurious ambiance because this restaurant offers quality dishes in an affordable price. I remember eating here years ago but I think the prices doesn't much make huge changes.
Move over classic spaghetti, because TOSH has now more unique dishes to try. Sounds exciting? May I present to you their newest offerings:
Grilled Chicken, Apples and Almond Salad with Roasted Garlic Mayo. The combination of the chicken, apples, almonds and lettuce tastes so refreshing. Perfect before having the main course or have it just like that if you’re on a diet.
Ham and Cheese Croquette with Roasted Garlic Mayo. I love how the cheese bursts in my mouth as I took a bite. For me, I prefer eating it with gravy.
Cajun Seafood Fry with Thai Chili Mayo. This for me, is the best appetizer. Seafood covered with its tasty breading is really tender and worth giving a try.
Fried Wonton with Spinach-cheese Dip. Everything with cheese is delicious to me. The spinach-cheese dip is really perfect for the fried wonton.
After the appetizer, lets now move to their newest pasta dishes:
Penne Inasal Pasta. Penne pasta topped with Chicken Inasal. I like how the chicken is so tender and is really perfect for the penne pasta.
Chili Con Carne Pasta. Of all the pasta we’ve tried, this is my most favorite of all. I’m surprised to like this one mainly because I’m not a fan of spicy food. The sauce leaves a right amount of zesty taste after you finish off the pasta.
Breakfast Pasta. This one is really exceptional because of the egg on top of the pasta. Ideal way to start the day because it has bacon, spinach and mushroom. I love how the white sauce complements the egg perfectly.
Spaghetti Ramen with Seafood in Ham Broth. As you took a sip of the broth, you can really savor the combination taste of the ham and seafood. This one is another unique dish from TOSH, because they used spaghetti noodles instead of ramen noodles.
Half Roast Chicken. The chicken is so soft and has a mild flavor and aroma. Where’s the hot rice?
Cajun Grilled Chickem Jambalaya. What I like about TOSH is that their chicken is tender whether it’s for topping or the main course. Great combination of smoky chicken and flavored rice which apparently became my favorite flavored rice.
Angus Chuck Beef Strips.
Apparently the beef strips are hard to chew and ingest but the sauce is tasty and flavorful. This is also one of my favorite dishes at TOSH.
And and and.. may I present to you their newest Pizza flavors: Margheritta, Bleu Cheese and Arugulla, Seafood Pizza and the Pinoy Pizza.
After trying out all the dishes, why not try a couple of yummy cookies for dessert. My favorite part of every meal! TOSH Pantry has freshly baked cookies you must check out. Van Dough Artisan Cookies. Chewy and freshly baked cookies. You can really feel the chocolate bursting in your mouth. Feels so heavenly.
Although lighting can be quite dim at times, TOSH can be a place for date night with your special someone. The place looks like a secluded garden with servers. The menu is extensive. I specifically like the parmesan-crusted fish fillet. Their carbonara is a specialty as well. If you're dining with a group of sweet teeth, you will enjoy the dessert sampler!
Tip: This place a secluded area for special meetings. You can have it reserved, free of charge.
The Old Spaghetti House doesn't just serve good pasta and pizza or rice meals, they also have delicious desserts.
When I first tried their Turtle Pie for dessert, I was really pleased with it. It can be really sweet at times, but it's delicious especially the whipped cream and the chocolate bits. I think this dessert can be perfect with brewed coffee but I haven't tried it yet.
