La Fabrica Central

We had a wonderful experience.
The food and service were great - and a band perfect added much to the atmosphere.
We will visit again soon.

Great service and food. Had a great time there, and definitely recommend this place.

As a native of Puerto Rico and passionate about food, I really know what true Puertorrican cooking is. This is my first time in this restaurant and I am happy to recommend it wholeheartedly. There is no other Puertorrican/latino restaurant in the Boston area that comes close to it, in authenticity and quality of the food. Their mofongo is the real one!  Before my mother passed away, she gave me one of Chef Giovanna Huyke's cooking books. And I was not disappointed. Can't understand why it took me this long to go and try it but I will be back... again and again!

Great place! Coming back! The food was good, we had a reservation!

The bold flavors and creative dishes at La Fabrica brought me back to dine on another business trip to Cambridge. It did not disappoint. From the cocktails to the food to the service - it is all exceptional. Highly recommended.

Had a pretty authentic feel. Good was very good. Great location for small, light hearted, business dinners or friend gatherings.

Was very disappointed fish had a weird stinky smell the meat inside the fish was tough I had this fish before from here and it never smelled or tasted like that.

Great food

The food portions were big. We ordered a fried fish the was nice, but unevenly seasoned. That's the only reason for 4 starts.

First time trying this restaurant. Food and service were excellent!

The food was excellent, the churrasco was superb and the mofongo with ropa vieja very flavorful. And Mario’s service at the back bar was awesome as usual. The whole experience was great

Overall the place was good did not like the fact that you were seated closely to other people so they could hear your conversations and you could hear there’s also the pork chop was $30 and it was fried too much very hard and dry

Table setup was sloppy. Server took a long time to take our orders and forgot my drink order.

It is lively, loud and fun. The servers are attentive and helpful but not hovering.
The food is delicious!!!

Everything was awesome but I felt that the waiter was rushing us. We wanted to take our time, have a drink the. Order apps and then dinner. He was rushing us and wanted to bring everything out quickly.

I loved everything it was excellent! The food was perfect and the service was perfect! Definitely will be eating there again!

They need more menu items. The parking is tough around the area

Everything was fabulous!

I love la fabrica!!!! I Would definetly recommend La Fabrica...when ever a friend or co-worker is looking for a splace to go...i always recommend la fabrica.
The owner Dennis is doing an AWESOME job.!!!! Keep up the good work.

This restaurant was great. Small but, great. The food was wonderful as well as the service and their drinks. I had made a reservation to celebrate Valentine's day with my husband. We arrived at the location at 4:10 but didn't make it to the restaurant until 4:39 looking for a place to park. Given the fact that space is limited the sitting arrangement is to close to each other and had a hard time reading the menu due to the lighting. The couple next to us had their flashlight on. Would only visit again around the area.

Thanks La Fabrica for making my Valentine's Day the best of all. I never regret choosing La Fabrica for my special celebrations.
My best

La Fabrica Central - the food reminded me of home!

There was live music, great food and we had a really good time. The ceviche was very tasty, the octopus salad needed some more dressing but was very fresh. I tried the roast chicken and it was so flavorful with spices. My husband tried the lobster in creole sauce and it was outstanding! We will be back.

Absolutely best food I’ve had so far in Boston

Had a great time

Everything was perfect and the food was seasoned perfectly. Love the restaurant and ambiance.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at La Fabrica. The food is delicious - fresh & unique with nostalgic flavor pairings. The cocktails are delicious and the staff courteous.

Great atmosphere. People were having fun here and that was what we were looking for. It was very noisy and busy once the line for the nightclub started to queue up. The food was ok. Not my favorites menu. Our waitress was friendly and attentive.

The food was fine. There were no real complaints. But I had much higher expectations. I got the 'Puerto Rican Lasagna' which was okay. I have actually had a similar dish when I was in Puerto Rico and it was absolutely delicious. I've never seen it anywhere else so I was excited to see it on this menu. It was underwhelming. And it's pretty expensive overall too.

The food and service was on point. We will definitely be going back to try other menu items and enjoy the live music.

Fantastic vibe and atmosphere, lively and fun crowd

The food is amazing! The staff is lovely and so hard working. The atmosphere was wonderful. Very much looking forward to going back.

Quiet Sunday evening at Fabrica Central yielded fine food: great appetizer platter for 4, very good chicken & snapper, & excellent mofongo w/ exceptional creole sauce!!!

I went with my family a group of 10 and made reservations prior. There were only 2 waiters and only one could take the orders. Drinks were disgusting. Food was very bland in flavor. We had churrasco, chuleta cancan, half roasted chicken, chicharron de pollo. All of these were very bland in flavor its like they ran out of salt in the whole restaurant. The mayo ketchup sauce for the appetizers and their beans had more flavor then all the meals put together. I don’t mind paying almost 30 dollars for a plate of food if i enjoy it but EVERYONE in the group Disliked their food except for 1. The one person who liked their food had the fried snapper fish which was pretty good. 1 positive was the chefs courtesy towards our group. Chef sent free apps while we waited. But again, empanada filling was bland the mayo ketchup had more flavor than anything else. Waiter kept forgetting our orders besides the fact that he was “writing them down” and in the end forgot 2 of the orders and two of the people in our table had to wait for their food even longer. Overall not a happy consumer and will not be going back

Wonderful first visit for all of us. Can’t wait to go back! The sea bass ceviche was unbelievably fresh. Later crowd on a Friday...Seemed like a great place for a date.

A fantastic Puerto-Rican restaurant: perfectly seasoned, inventive yet classic dishes, great selection, wonderful ambiance, and prompt and attentive service. Wonderful for dates, family dinners, and special occasions.

Nice restaurant. Edgar was very kind and helped us in the choice

Overall a very authentic Latin cuisine experience. Food was very good but not necessarily exceptional, menu has limited options but covers most tastes. Prices are good but cocktails leave some room for improvement at that price range. Music and ambiance was one of the best parts of the night.

Best place to dance in Cambridge, food was good that night (not the case every time I came), although a little expensive for the quantity. It is however absurd to make customer pay for the cover to access the club when they already had diner (cover is 15-20$ per person + 4$ per item at the cloakroom). Really nice place, but expensive night if you want to eat, drink and dance.

The food was very authentic, and we enjoyed the upscale ambiance. We also had a great time salsa dancing.
