Mex Factory em Lisboa

Mex Factory was recommended to us by a friend as was a visit to LX Factory. We were not disappointed. We were pleasantly greeted and seated in a clean, bright room. We started with a drink (sparkling water and a beer). The beer selection was limited but ok. My wife and I shared a chicken Burrito and shrimp Tacos. Both portion sizes were more than expected and we did not have room for desert. The total bill came to €30 which we thought was very reasonable. A tip of 5% was suggested but not required and we were happy to have it added on as service was excellent. Would recommend a visit to Mex Factory and LX Factory while in Lisboa.

Os tacos só têm um sabor dominante, o do abacate. Ou seja, pedimos tac os de diferentes sabores e parece que acabamos a comer tudo igual. O filete de peixe nos tacos era super seco. Os funcionários são muito simpáticos.

Fellow Mexican food lover friends pointed us in this direction, we made our reservation and arrived hungry with great anticipation. Surprisingly, the absence of fresh ingredients (stale chips, anemic tomatoes, dry chicken and rice) and unwillingness to accommodate a basic food sensitivity, crowned with largely flat service provided an unexpected disappointing experience. When we requested that the rice be left out of one of the burritos, our server very politely but flatly twice refused to even ask the kitchen staff. We were made to understand that whatever goes into the burritos is already pre-mixed? On the positive side, the guacamole was fresh and delicious. Plus the space is immaculate, and the decor and artwork here are fun, colorful and interesting. To round things out we used a 30% discount offer that popped up. Otherwise, if in search of fresh, authentic Mexican food, steer clear, and be thankful that there are plenty of other dining choices in the way cool LX Factory area.

Siamo stati a Lisbona per una vacanza di pochi giorni. Avevamo letto di questo posto particolare dove c’erano diversi ristoranti riuniti in un unico luogo. Abbiamo scelto il Mexfactory. Arredamento del locale davvero molto carino. Il cibo era molto buono.
