                   SPAGHETTI WAREHOUSE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   Basis of Presentation

     In the  opinion of  management,  the  accompanying  condensed  consolidated
     financial   statements  contain  all  adjustments   necessary  for  a  fair
     presentation of the consolidated  financial  position as of October 4, 1998
     and the  consolidated  results of operations and cash flows for the 14-week
     period ended  October 4, 1998 and the 13-week  period ended  September  28,
     1997.  Operating  results for the 14-week  period ended October 4, 1998 are
     not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fisca
     year.

2.   Accounting Policies

     During the interim periods the Company follows the accounting  policies set
     forth in its consolidated  financial  statements in its Annual Report (Form
     10-K)  (File  No.  1-10291).  Reference  should  be made to such  financial
     statements  for  information  on  such  accounting   policies  and  further
     financial details.

3.   New Accounting Pronouncements

     In March 1997,  the  Financial Accounting  Standard  Board ("FASB")  issued
     Statement No. 128  ("SFAS No. 128"),  "Earnings per Share."  This statement
     establishes new standards  for computing and  presenting earnings per share
     ("EPS").  SFAS No.  128 is effective  for  financial statements  issued for
     periods ending after December 15, 1997.  As a result, the Company's EPS for
     fiscal 1998 was  calculated under SFAS  No. 128.  However,  the adoption of
     this   FASB  Statement  had   no  effect  on   the   Company's   previously
     reported EPS.

     In June 1997, the FASB issued  Statement No. 130 ("SFAS No. 130"), "Report-
     ing Comprehensive Income."   SFAS No. 130 establishes new rules for the re-
     porting and  display  of comprehensive  income  and its  components  in the
     financial  statements.   The  Company  adopted  SFAS  No. 130  in the first
     quarter of fiscal 1999.

     In April 1998,  the American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants
     issued Statement of Position  98-5 ("SOP 98-5"), "Reporting of the Costs of
     Start-up Activities." SOP 98-5 is effective for financial statements issued
     for years beginning after December 15, 1998; therefore, the Company will be
     required to implement  its provisions by  the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
     At that time, the Company will  be required to change the  method currently
     used to account  for pre-opening costs.  The application of  SOP  98-5 will
     result in pre-opening costs on the  Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as
     of the date  of adoption, net  of related tax  effects,  being  charged  to
     operations as the  cumulative effect of  a change in  accounting principle.
     Under the new requirements for accounting for pre-opening costs, the subse-
     quent costs of start-up activities will be expensed as incurred.

                                     - 6 -

<PAGE>

     In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Account-
     ing for  Derivative Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities."  SFAS  No.  133
     establishes accounting and  reporting standards for  derivative instruments
     and hedging activities.  SFAS No. 133  is effective for the Company's first
     quarter financial statements  in fiscal 2000.  The Company is currently not
     involved in derivative  instruments or hedging  activities and,  therefore,
     will measure the impact of this statement as it becomes necessary.

     The Company does not expect that the adoption of the above  standards  will
     have a significant impact on its  consolidated results of operation, finan-
     cial position or cash flows.

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

     Difference in Length of Fiscal Quarters
     ---------------------------------------

     The Company  reports on a fiscal year that ends on the Sunday  nearest July
1.  Accordingly,  the current fiscal year will end July 4, 1999.  Management has
chosen to add the  additional  week to the first  quarter,  thereby  making it a
14-week  period  ending on  October  4, 1998.  The first  quarter  last year was
comprised  of the 13-week  period ended  September  28,  1997.  The  comparative
discussions  below compare the current  14-week period to the prior year 13-week
period.

                                     - 7 -

Revenues
- - --------

     Revenues increased $1.6 million, or 10.2%, during the quarter ended October
4, 1998 in comparison to the same quarter in the preceding  year.  This increase
is  attributable  in  part to the  incremental  sales  of the two new  Spaghetti
Warehouse  Italian Grill ("Italian Grill") units located in Mesquite and Irving,
Texas,  as well as the  incremental  sales resulting from the additional week in
fiscal  1999.  These  increases  were  partially  offset  by a 3.0%  decline  in
same-store sales (stores open the full quarter in both fiscal years).

     First  quarter  same-store  sales in the  Company's  traditional  Spaghetti
Warehouse  units  declined 5.5% while the Company's  repositioned  Italian Grill
units  same-store sales declined 1.6% from the  corresponding  period last year.
The  decline in  overall  same-store  sales was the result of a 2.8%  decline in
customer counts coupled with a 0.2% check average decrease.

     Management   believes  that  same-store  customer  counts  were  negatively
affected  by the  continued  growth of  casual  dining  competitors  and by some
temporary  store  closures  this year as a result of severe  weather  in certain
markets.  The  decrease in check  averages is  partially  attributed  to various
operational initiatives instituted during the first quarter of fiscal 1999 aimed
at improving long-term customer counts. These initiatives included the promotion
of low-priced  spaghetti entrees in the current quarter,  the  implementation of
new menus focused on value and a test of reduced-price menus in selected units.

Costs and Expenses
- - ------------------

     Cost of Sales
     -------------

     Cost of sales as a percentage  of total  revenues was 27.5% for the current
quarter as compared to 25.3% for the same quarter last year. The current quarter
increase  is largely  attributable  to the  conversion,  over the past year,  of
eleven  existing units to the Italian Grill format since these units have higher
cost of sales as a percentage of revenues than traditional units.  Additionally,
various  initiatives  to upgrade food quality  instituted in the first  quarter,
including  changes in certain  suppliers,  recipes and a change in bread service
procedures,  also  contributed  to  the  increase  in the  cost  of  sales  as a
percentage  of total  revenues  in the current  quarter.  Due to the higher food
costs  associated with the Italian Grill,  management  anticipates  that current
year  percentages  will  continue  to exceed  those of prior  periods due to the
increased number of Italian Grill units.

     Operating Expenses
     ------------------

     Operating  expenses as a percentage  of total  revenues  were 57.5% for the
current  quarter  as  compared  to 54.7% for the same  quarter  last  year.  The
increase in operating  expenses as a percentage of revenues was  attributable to
increases in hourly labor costs,  repair and maintenance costs, direct costs and
marketing  expenses.  Some  of  the  increase  in  labor  and  direct  costs  is
attributable  to the  conversion  of two  units to the  Grill  format  this year
compared to one last year. Additionally,  the fixed nature of certain management
labor and  occupancy  costs  relative to the decline in same-store  sales,  also
contributed  to the  increase in  operating  expenses as a  percentage  of total
revenues.  These  increases were somewhat  offset by reductions in  unemployment
taxes  and  insurance   costs  in   comparison   to  prior  year.

     General and Administrative Expenses (G&A)
     -----------------------------------------

     G&A expenses as a percentage  of total  revenues  were 8.3% for the current
quarter as compared to 8.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 1998.  This decrease
is primarily  attributable  to a reduction in corporate  employee  costs.  These
decreases were partially offset by increases in legal fees over the same quarter
last year and current quarter costs associated with the auction process involved
in the solicitation of bids for the Company.

     Depreciation and Amortization (D&A)
     -----------------------------------

     D&A as a percentage of total  revenues was 5.5% for the current  quarter as
compared to 5.8% for the same  quarter  last year.  Certain  information  system
equipment items becoming fully  depreciated  contributed to the decline from the
same period in the prior year.  This decline was  partially  offset by increased
depreciation  expense and pre-opening cost amortization for the two new units in
Mesquite and Irving, Texas.

Net Interest Expense
- - --------------------

     Net interest  expense  decreased  from $89,145  during the first quarter of
fiscal 1998 to $85,059 during the current quarter.  This decline is attributable
to the decreased  average debt outstanding under the Company's credit facilities
in comparison to the same quarter last year.

Income Taxes
- - ------------

     The  Company's  effective  tax rate in the  current  quarter  was  15.2% as
compared  to 35.3% in the same  quarter  last year.  The  decline in the current
quarter's  effective  tax  rate  is  attributable  to  a  higher  proportion  of
consolidated  pre-tax earnings generated by the Company's Canadian operations in
fiscal 1999 as compared to fiscal 1998.  These Canadian  earnings are taxed at a
lower rate than the U.S.  statutory rate thereby reducing the Company's  overall
effective tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

     The Company's  working capital deficit  increased from $3.5 million at June
28,  1998 to $3.7  million  on  October  4,  1998.  The  increase  is  primarily
attributable  to an increase in the amount of current  debt  outstanding  in the
current year as compared to the prior year.  The Company is currently  operating
with a working capital deficit, which is common in the restaurant industry since
restaurant  companies do not normally require  significant  investment in either
accounts receivable or inventory.

     Net cash  provided by  operating  activities  was $0.5  million  during the
current  quarter as compared to $1.1  million  during the same period last year.
This decrease is  attributable  to the decline in net income in the current year
as compared to the prior year.

     Long-term debt outstanding on October 4, 1998 consisted of amounts borrowed
under the Company's existing bank credit facility including a $5.0 million fixed
rate term loan and $1.4 million  borrowed  against its floating  rate  revolving
credit facility. The Company had an additional $3.6 million available under this
revolving credit facility on October 4, 1998.

     Capital  expenditures  were $1.6 million for the quarter  ended  October 4,
1998 as compared to $0.8  million  for the same period last year.  Current  year
expenditures  relate  primarily  to the purchase of the Corpus  Christi,  Texas,
unit, the conversion of two traditional  Spaghetti Warehouse  restaurants to the
Italian Grill format and the normal purchase of replacement restaurant equipment
and decor.

     The Company  plans to complete  construction  of its Corpus  Christi  unit,
convert  certain  additional  units to the Italian Grill format,  open up to one
additional new Italian Grill unit and to continue to make necessary replacements
and upgrades to existing  restaurants and information systems during the next 12
months. Total planned capital  expenditures  relating to all projects during the
next 12 months  are  approximately  $3.0  million.  Cash  flow from  operations,
current cash balances and amounts available under the Company's revolving credit
facility are expected to be sufficient to fund planned capital  expenditures and
payment of required term loan maturities for the next 12 months.

Year 2000 Compliance
- - --------------------

     In the past, a number of computer  software programs were written using two
digits  rather  than  four  to  determine  the  applicable  year.  As a  result,
date-sensitive  computer  software  may  recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000.  This could result in major  system  failures or
miscalculations,  and is generally  referred to as the "Year 2000"  problem.  An
extensive review of the Company's  information  systems has been completed and a
comprehensive program is currently in process to modify or replace those systems
that are not Year 2000 compliant.  Management  believes that all Company systems
are compliant,  or will be compliant by June 1999.  Additional validation of the
Company's systems will be conducted through testing throughout 1999.

     In addition to the assessment of in-house systems, the Company is currently
assessing the readiness of its vendors for the Year 2000 issue. To determine the
status of third parties,  letters inquiring as to their readiness have been sent
to  substantially  all  of the  Company's  vendors.  The  Company  is  currently
assessing the vendors'  responses and prioritizing them in order of significance
to the business of the Company. Contingency plans will be developed in the event
that  business-critical  vendors d not  provide the  Company  with  satisfactory
evidence of their  readiness to handle Year 2000 issues.  The Company intends to
make every reasonable effort to assess the Year 2000 readiness of these critical
partners and to create action plans to address the identified risks.

     The  Company  anticipates  that it will  have  substantially  completed  an
assessment of the Year 2000 compliance status of all information  technology and
non-information  technology by December 31, 1998, and will then address the Year
2000 compliance of such equipment.

     All maintenance and modification costs will be expensed as incurred,  while
the cost of new software, if material, is being capitalized and depreciated over
its  expected  useful  life.  The  Company  expects  to  incur  total  costs  of
approximately  $275,000  related  to  the  replacement  and  remediation  of the
Company's systems. Of these costs,  approximately $216,000  was incurred through


                                     - 10 -




<PAGE>

October 4, 1998, with the remaining  $59,000 to be incurred during the remainder
of fiscal 1999 and in fiscal 2000.  All  estimated  costs have been budgeted and
are expected to be funded by cash flows from operations.

     The Company does not believe the costs related to the Year 2000  compliance
project  will be material to its  financial  position or results of  operations.
However,  the cost of the  project  and the date on which the  Company  plans to
complete the Year 2000  modifications  are based on management's best estimates,
which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events including the
continued availability of certain resources,  third party modification plan, and
other factors. Unanticipated failures by critical vendors as well as the failure
by the  Company to execute  its own  remediation  efforts  could have a material
adverse effect on the cost of the project and its completion  date. As a result,
there can be no assurance that these forward-looking  estimates will be achieved
and the actual cost and vendor  compliance  could differ  materially  from those
plans, resulting in material financial risk.
