Today's SceneStop brings us to The Old Spaghetti Factory in Newport Beach, CA. In the the 1990s this place was a hardcore hangout of the highest order.

However, it wasn't limited to hardcore bands. You might have some pasta with members of BIG DRILL CAR sitting a few tables away. The singer of your favorite band might be your server. Some straight-edge roadie mighteven be tending the upstairs bar. You might park feet from the water with your car packed in like a sardine around other cars.

Step back into a time machine as myself, David "Doc"/"PowerPlay" Robinson, and his lovely family accompanied me on this journey back to this 90s treasure. Thank you to Doc's son for shooting portions of this. I believe your name is Justin, but I am not 100% sure.

The best part of this Scenestop?

The food was every bit as good as we remembered it
