Delicious! We celebrated our 15th anniversary last night and it was perfect. Cozy, and comfy ambience. Good vibe. The service was outstanding! The food was top notch, and knowing they have Centro Bar next door to have a cocktail before dinner was lovely. Then we went back after dinner to listen to the live music for a night cap. Eccezionale! We'll be back.

Delicious except the Grey Goose dry was so small I had to order another. That one came with a bit more alcohol but very very skimpy. The evening was 10 except for that and made our Taco Tuesday + snowstorm memorable.

Zach is a resourceful & top notch server whose potential is limitless on several fronts. The head chef is quite the solid asset himself & properly accepted the challenge of making spontaneous homemade salmon-dipping sauce not on the menu that was a tantalizing alternative to tartar!

Cafe Centro never fails to disappoint. As a gluten free diner, they provide many tasty options and their waitstaff is knowledgable.

I absolutely love Centro Cafe! The staff is delightful and professional. I enjoy your wine list. I always get the same dish, the gnudi. While still good, there is no longer the salty, chewy chunks of pancetta in the dish. And I was very disappointed that espresso is no longer available, so no affogato. Still a great place!

There was only one small thing that I would note. I ordered the Pepe e Cacio and the scallops were perfect. However, the linguine and sauce had cooled off a bit…maybe as the scallops cooked? It was delicious, but would have preferred it warmer. Otherwise, the whole night great as usual.
