We opted to eat outside which was pleasant even though there's a busy road nearby.
The food was good.
Pasta with clams was tasty with many large clams in the shell and a good white cause.
The fish of the day was very good.
Our Russian waitress was very pleasant and after she steered me towards the limoncello sorbet I liked her a lot.
Not cheap but worth it!
I've been to Cafe Centro probably more than 20 times, mostly because I live down the street and I know I can take my coworkers there for a good dinner. Â I find they have great salads, a decent wine selection, and satisfying dinners. They'll customize your order however you like... substitute a sauce or add meat, etc. without any trouble. Â
I think it's great that I have a place just outside my neighborhood that serves real food... not cheap, heavy Italian like most of the places out there. They don't claim to be the hottest thing around and their food is not really "special" per se... just fresh. I appreciate the comfortable but elegant atmosphere. Â You can sit outside with your dog, be seen near the piano, or hear the ridiculous conversations of the neatly-dressed patrons up front.
