Factory Tamal is a cozy and reasonably priced restaurant located near the busy Manhattan Bridge area, providing a tranquil haven for diners. This small space features just two two-person tables, one four-person table, and a counter with two bar stools, making it an intimate setting. The restaurant is on the same street where the Velvet Underground recorded their first demos. Standout menu items include the Tamal (Verde), the Salsa Verde Chicken, and the Rajas con Queso, all praised for their authenticity and deliciousness. Customers also enjoy the vegetable torta and the chipotle chicken tortilla soup. The owners, who are from Puebla, Mexico, are noted for their hospitality, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. With hand-ground authentic masa for the tamales and a focus on quality ingredients, Factory Tamal is an ideal spot for a friend date, a date date, or a solo adventure, especially with its convenient location near the Metrograph Movie theater. However, it can get busy due to limited seating, making it a good choice for a quick snack or light meal.
