Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Whisk flour into the butter and garlic; cook until mixture is bubbling and golden, about 1 minute. Gradually pour in milk, whisking constantly. Bring mixture to a simmer; stir in cream cheese, 2/3 c. mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Let simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 2 - 3 minutes. Fold in artichoke hearts and spinach; add lemon juice and red pepper flakes, if using; season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
Spread a thin layer of prepared sauce onto the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish. Lay ravioli in a single layer in the bottom of the baking dish; top with half of the prepared sauce; repeat. Top with remaining cheese. Bake 30 minutes, until sauce is bubbling and ravioli are tender.
If wanting the top to be golden, broil on high for 2 - 3 minutes.
Serve, garnished with parsley.
