Mosaica at The Chocolate Factory Description
Mosaica @ The Factory was the first baby of John Mountain. In 2000 when it opened in a disused chocolate factory in Wood Green many people thought that it was destined for complete failure. However, after a year of next to no customers the word began to spread and now Mosaica is probably one of the most successful North London restaurants, a testament to that are the many superb reviews that it has received from publications like Time Out and The Evening Standard.
The food is honest and straightforward. In true John Mountain style there are no microwaves and there are no sauces or products on the menu that have not been made by the chefs. They don't buy in anything; if they can't make it themselves it doesn't go on the menu. All breads, pastas, ice-creams etc are homemade and are some of the best you will find.
Likely candidates for the menu will be Ribeye Steak with garlic mash and fine beans, seared scallops, lamb shank, asparagus and parmesan salad, sea bass, the list is endless. As with Mosaica @ The Lock the menu changes constantly, practically everyday, allowing the chefs to use the most seasonal fresh ingredients they can find.
Does it all sound too good to be true? Why not go and put them to the test - you are unlikely be disappointed!
Your Reviews of Mosaica at The Chocolate Factory
Dave (28 October 2009)
As you enter the car park, it feels like you are in the wrong place, but enter the restaurant and you could be anywhere, don’t get me wrong but its done out nicely, very comfortable, but it is an old factory, just painted the walls, I like that though gives you a feel of what it used to be like. As we walked in the lady greeted me with 'Hello David', I thought god how does she know our name, we must be the only ones there tonight! But it was packed, nice touch that was. The chef-owner took the time to go through the whole menu while explaining the history of the place, a bit about himself and talked about us, he was a very likeable chap, we ended feeling like we were around friends for dinner, For starters I had the huge prawn and it was very tasty. For mains roasted pork with creamy mash and red cabbage, worked well and tasted so good. Overall it was a very nice experience and I would recommend it to everyone to try once. If I lived in the area I'd definitely go back, but as there are so many other places to try, that I'll probably give it a while.

I ate in Mosaica a few weeks ago and found the food to be sub standard. When I approached the manager a few days later with a complaint, I received a rude response. Well lucky for him - I won't be going back!
