“ Food.. comfort... nothing else needs to be said. I had their meatball sub. It was amazing. Loop ”
“ The food is fantastic the servings are great and customer service is 5 Star. Thanks Gary ”
“ Definitely order ahead. Tasty! Actually took it on a picnic. Don't think I've ever had spaghetti on a picnic before! ”
“ I visited here once, not long after they opened. It's good for 'fast food spaghetti'. Good portions, average taste. But nothing beats homemade! ”
“ By the Bucket has become a family favorite. I think its more for the fact that you can literally by spaghetti by the bucket, so niche. Our goto is bucket of spaghetti with meat sauce. Sometimes we are fancy and toss in some meatballs too. We also get a side of garlic bread too! The spaghetti is cooked perfectly, its not mushy or soft which is what I was worried about. The meat sauce is good, I just toss in some chili peppers to make it spicy. Also have picked up a side salad too. Every time I have gone service has friendly and great! If not in the mood to cook dinner and not interest in fast burgers or burritos, go give By The Bucket a try! ”
“ I was skeptical at first for something so easily made at home. We had the middle bucket with garlic bread. Loaded up on some meatballs (Monday is 4 =5 meatballs). Also had some salad to top it off. Everything was incredibly amazing and we are glad to have stoped to give it a try. The meatballs were so tasty. We will be back as it's close to home. ”
