   The pizza is still a bit raw and still can taste the raw flour. Spaghetti is still very good.

   Took over 40 minutes before someone took our order, although once the order had been taken the food arrived reasonably soon after that. Parking is almost non-existent so be aware.

   This was our second time at Factory 51 and unfortunately the experience wasn't as good! We ordered the calamari fritte, baby cos lettuce and goats cheese salad, the white sausage pizza and panfried gnocchi with pancetta and lemon. The calamari was pretty good! Really tender and the sauce was great. But, even with the lemon, it was really salty and some bites made us wince a little. The baby cos salad was a total miss to be honest, and I am usually a fan of goats cheese. It was really lacking flavour and cohesion. The gnocchi itself was pretty good, but the sauce/rest of it let us down. Maybe, we chose the wrong gnocchi dish, but we couldn't taste any of the truffle oil mentioned, and it was just a little too dry, with the pancetta a little too dark for our liking. The pizza crust was as great as last time! But were the toppings just a little scarce? I understand that Italian pizzas aren't packed like Aussie pizzas are, but even so, it just made it really lacking, especially on white pizzas. It was more like eating bread than anything. It's great bread! But we were hoping for a pizza. Again maybe it was a poor menu choice again. We might try other Italian restaurants after this experience. But last time was great! The grilled calamari salad they used to have was amazing! Too bad it was changed out. Side note: Waitresses are always so bright and cheerful and try their best to make it a great experience. Kudos to them, they're the best! We were served by a girl with blonde space buns.

   Factory 51 never disappoints. The food is the best Italian food available in Brisbane. Always fresh, full of flavour and exciting. A beautiful restaurant to visit and enjoy a night out.

   Everyone was very attentive and when one of the people in my party was running late I ordered her drink and they delayed the arrival of the drink until she arrived so it would be nice and fresh. They made sure to fill out glasses with water each time they were low. The baked Brie and braised lamb gnocchi were excellent and decent portion size. Would love to try a less meaty gnocchi next time as there were so many great options it was hard to choose this time.
