    I really wanted to love this restaurant specially because of all the good reviews and awards that it has but for me it was a 6 out of 10. Let me explain why, service was good not great we asked for wine twice and the first time she brought us water bottle and then the second time she only brought my partner his glass. The restaurant wasn’t crowded to say it was too loud or noisy just think she wasn’t paying attention. First plate was good second plate was ok she forgot to mention it had pieces of sardines :/ not my fav but I tried it. Third plate which is their famous pasta, looked different it was a green sauced pasta with no protein. Third plate was the Brussels sprouts I was expecting crispy but they were a little water downed. Lastly dessert was apple cake, it was good. The overall presentation is good it’s the old warehouse look with valet parking, nothing too special and prices were decent.

    As always; the best. I moved out of state, when I want the best LA has to offer; the Factory Kitchen is there, consistent like the old school restaurants down town restaurants. ie Rex Il Restaurante. The Tower, Chow chow in China town off the alley and a few others who are no longer with us. The service is comparable to Mexico City, like the good old days. Long live the Factory Kitchen.
