La Fabrica Central Restaurant: what do users think?
Wakanene “Sebastian” Kamau: The bouncer at the door tonight (a friday night) is racist. I was asked to take off my durag which i assumed was just to check for security reasons and when i went to put it back on I was told I wouldn’t be allowed in with it on. I then asked if I could wear another head wrap, i was told i would only be able to wear a hat with a cuff (like a beanie). All the while another member of the staff was wearing a headwrap. One of the most bigoted experiences i’ve had by a professional establishment in boston. I would STRONGLY advise that you do not go.
Rodrigo Ipince: Rude staff, misleading information. I've given this place too many chances, and every time they disappoint.Service: 1/5 …More
Tamires Cacheto: The worst nightclub I ever have been, very unsafe unless you are on VIP, security is only on that side of the robe.
Maricruz Vargas: Iba a un evento de latinx students y había comprado un boleto previamente. Cuando llegué me negaron la entrada a pesar de que ya había pagado y no me explicaron por qué. Después de eso me dijeron que si me formaba otra vez podía entrar, pero entonces me volvieron a rechazar sin decir por qué. Un lugar que rechaza a la gente arbitrariamente aunque se dicen incluyentes.
L Y: For the club:-Cover charge $25 cash only-Coat check $5 cash only-DJ has limited song choices, played the same song 4 times in a span of 2 hours-Latino music played-Lines are long-Cops hired to work security litter constantly-Bathroom attendant is superb, very professional, hands you a paper towel every time, mints available-Hard to get a drink because bartenders ignore you
Jaye Aster Broder: I went here for an evening birthday. Late at night on weekends there can be a high cover to enter. la Fab can make a lot of cocktails. It’s a bit pricey to get a basic tequila soda. The food looks good but I haven’t tried it. It is possible to reserve parts of it for celebrations.

Molleda Choung: My second time here and the food is consistently AMAZING! The staff/ managers and the owner Dennis are super friendly. The night club also had really good music. Would highly recommend !Parking: Parking is very difficult to find here which is normal anywhere in Boston.
Sarom: I had my birthday here and everything from the food to the service was amazing. We ordered mojitos, ceviche, chicharron, salmon tirradito, seared ribeye steak, fried red snapper, crab mofongo, octopus, and they were all phenomenal. So full of flavor!All my friends had a great experience. It’s a very fun vibe & the staff was very attentive. Management and the owner was very accommodating as they helped us transition from dinner to the nightclub as well. Definitely come here if you’re looking for a great time.
My Chi Tran: The food was amazing and vibe was on point! The owner took care of us girls and we had a blast. I definitely recommend this place if you wanna have good food and a good time.
Carlos Mario Osorio: Terrible place. Terrible personnel. Disrespectful an aggressive bouncers. The longest and most unnecessary queue. They feel so empowered because of the demand they have. Don’t go to La Fabrica, everybody deserves a good deal. They don’t know it at all! if possible i would choose no stars!
Maria Ana: the staff in general sucks! they are not kind at all, from the entrance to the safeguards they are absolutely impolite, they don’t have any sense of customer service and kindness. The cover is expensive and still they charge you 5 per jacket and 10 per bag, that’s an excess. As latin my expectations were high about this place: based on my experiencie I DONT RECOMMEND to spend neither your time not your money on this place.

alex k: I've been here many times for a night out.It can get very crowded. Music is great!Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
MAICO JACINTO: La Fábrica was one of our favorite places until last night, we had a reservation for 7 pm, food was ok but I think the chuleta kan kan it’s overpriced. I do understand that you want people moving because you have other reservations to take care of but it bothers having people coming to your table every 5 minutes to try to take the plates out of the table when are still working on it. Definitely it will take a little while before giving another try to the restaurant
M R: Amazing food and service.. you will not regret it.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Chicken Chicharron Mofongo, Shrimp Mofongo Parking space Difficult to find parking Parking options Parking is unavailable …More
Lydia Chew: This is a great spot for both food and for nightlife. As popular as this place is, it's not very big (particularly in the front), so it's essentially reservation-only to eat here. Dinner also gets you in with no cover - otherwise, there's a $10 cover for the front lounge and $30 for the nightclub in the back.They have decent food and good drinks, so expect to spend. The service is also pretty classy and on par with the rest of the experience. For a group of 5, we ordered the salmon tiradito ($18), chicken roll ($20), lomo saltado ($25), and beef empanada ($6 for 1 large empanada), as well as plenty of drinks. All the orders came out quite quickly, which was great because I was definitely hungry. As with most restaurants of this caliber, the quantity of each dish is relatively small. We were still hungry, so we ordered another appetizer of avocado tostones ($20 for 3 pieces). All of the food was really good, though a bit pricey.After dinner, you can stick around to listen to the live band. There's always an eclectic crowd here that's diverse in both ages and ethnicities. It's a Latin-music spot though, so even when the DJ comes on, expect to hear a lot of Bad Bunny. It's a great weekend spot where you can dance the night away!
Bolivar Barreto: So I supported this place because it have one of the most amazing chef in the Hispanic Cuisine Giovanna Huyke I hear that she quit, Now this place is dead to me, no more support from me and you see her absence in the food quiality.Food: 3/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Alexis Soto Guerrero: Food: 2/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5More
Valentino Salazar: Worst Spanish place in Boston! They should train their staff what customer service is!Don’t spend your hard earned money here! Many nicer places in Cambridge/Boston area!
boston lifestyle: Worst experience in Boston ! Don’t go! Way more nicer restaurants in Boston ! I think this place doesn’t have a manager! This place is run by bouncers outside

S PJ: First time eating Puerto Rican cuisineI really liked the paella but it did not compare to a Spanish paellaThe other dishes were not my favorite from taste and presentation perspective but I have no comparison to say if they were tasting as supposed to or notThe breaded chicken was nice but the fries were not
ingrid oliveira: my partner and I really enjoyed the platanutres con guacamole it was so delicious! the calamares weren’t that great and the lettuce served no purpose. i got the mofongo sampler (i’d never had mofongo before) and i enjoyed it. it was a bit heavy for me so i ended up switching with my partner who got the churrasco con chimichurri — the steak was delicious! rice and beans were ok. overall a good puerto rican restaurant with simple food!
allen lopez: Delicious authentic puertorican dishes. Will definitely be returning here. As for parking, be prepared for at least 5-10 min walk as all the street parking is for residents only. But there are a few parking garages in the area.Food: 4/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5Recommended dishes Mofongo with Pork, Churrasco Con Salsa Chimichurri Parking space Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options Paid parking garage …More

Y Ortega: I ordered chicken chicharron and it had bones it was fried chicken not chicharron. The pasteles and alcapurrias had way to much achiote and had a bad taste because of it. I was extremely disappointed it was the first time having terrible puerto rican food. Never gain I do not recommend this place

Arthur Rufus: I waited before posting, just to be sure I wouldn't say something out of spite. My wife got sick from eating something. She thought it was the rice, but I think it was the bacalao since I didn't eat that with her. Either way, that was unpleasant. I enjoy Dominican/Puerto Rican food but this was not one of those times. I've made better dishes myself. The vibe was a typical Caribbean dive that might see in Wash Hgts in NYC.

Ananias Lima: Excelente 💕
Lourdes Apolaya: La comida boricua la debe cocinar o confeccionar nuestra gente boricua 🇵🇷. Jamás otro tipo de persona pq nunca va a tener él sabor que nosotros le damos. Lamentablemente cocinan sólo Salvadoreños es mala imitación de comida puertortiqueña . Sin sabor alguno, arroz sólo color, carnes igual costillas llenas en exceso de barbecue. Es como si yo fuera Salvadoreña o Guatemalteca cocinanando ese tipo de comida. Dirigido a la dueña gracias.🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷 ( Era clienta fija del negocio pero yo se cuando un boricua cocina no lo tienes sólo salvadoreños‼️ Esa comida no tiene sabor y por lo tanto no gusta lo lamento mucho. Nadie me contó e gastado mucho en comida para nada. Dios te bendiga.
