Centro Mexican Kitchen

I don’t even know where to begin. The ambiance is excellent. From the fun and artsy decor to the open floor plan where the inside and outside patio are separated by an open bar. The staff have all been super friendly and knowledgeable. We are visiting from california to move our daughter into college and happened to walk by one day and we were drawn in immediately. We have now eaten here three times in one week…. It is THAT good. They have a great happy hour menu and their brunch and dinner match the same energy. Because we had been in three times their Chef named Jason personally, came out to meet us because he was moved by the fact that we loved the food so much. He took the time during a busy time in the restaurant to go over all of the things that we had ordered and even made us two special things that we had not ordered because he thought we would enjoy them, which we did immensely. We were lucky enough to be able to have the same server two days in a row, and her name is Lilly and she is a ray of sunshine and went above and beyond to make sure that we were taken care of. I am very confident that she treats every guest this way and makes you feel like you’re a VIP. The various things we ordered over the last few days were Pazole, Hamachi Crudo, Queso ( best we have ever had), Caesar salad, deviled eggs that were honestly the most creative and delicious ones I’ve ever had, cornbread with chorizo gravy ( 🤯 ) and Sopapillas with agave butter and quince jam ( non negotiable at the end of the meal 10000/10 ) please treat yourself to a meal here at least once!!!!

Outstanding everything! The location is ideal and the bar is both, inside and patio. Our server was on point and the others pitched in as a team, very helpful. We sat on the patio and ordered from the BEST happy hour we have found. The house margaritas tasted so fresh and $5 was a deal. The HH nachos and potato tacos were incredible, the flavors and high quality ingredients were popping. What a great place to chill and watch Pearl Street walk by, we can't wait to return!

My daughter and I had lunch here on a whim. We were told that we'd have a 15 minute wait for a table so we sat at the bar which turned out to be a blessing as Alex (P?) served us and made two amazing recommendations. The tacos were as good as anything I've eaten and the sampler of the salsas and queso was incredible. My daughter is a little fussier and had the cheese quesadillas which she loved. Can't wait to go back the next time I am in the area!

Our experience with Centro Mexican Kitchen is based on New Year's Eve and lousy service. The server we had was more concerned about closing down the restaurant than she was providing us service. We were a table of 6 with reservations at 6:00 pm. She greeted us right away and asked about our drink order. I requested water for the table. We were waiting for 2 others in our party, so when she brought our drinks for the 4 of us, the other 2 had now joined us. (no water from this first ask). The server then took the drink order for the 2 new people and I asked if she could bring us water again. 2 drinks were brought for our couple that joined late but no water was brought to the table. I asked a third time for water for the table. (about 20 minutes from being seated until the 3rd ask). The round of drinks definitely took awhile too but we figured it was New Year's Eve. In between all of this, we had not quite decided on food because we were catching up, so the server was super attentive about coming back to see if we were ready. However, it took about 30 min. to get water for our table (wasteful trips of checking on us if she wasn't bringing water). Our food order was placed and then expediters brought us our food. In the meantime, our drinks and water were low, but our server was busy clearing the tables that had been set but didn't have customers present. Clean napkins/ plates getting shuttled back to the kitchen area instead of checking in on us. The restaurant was not packed and what I could observe was the server chatting with the hostess, maybe dealing with 2 tables besides ours, and doing "closing" work. Bussers came to remove our plates and empty glasses. I finally went up to the bar and ordered another round. The bartender realized we had a table so sought our server out. The beers/ order was set at the bar (i.e. I could see the bartender lining up our order) but again, it took her 10 more minutes to deliver them to our table. She stated that somehow the order didn't go through. However, she had never taken the order (bc I had gone directly up to the bar). We were looking forward to having some cocktails/ beers with our meal AND for someone to look out for us especially when ALL water glasses were empty. They were never refilled once and we could never track our server down to request it. It seemed she was more pre-occupied on closing down duties than taking care of us. The food was great but obviously not because of the server.

Such delicious food and DREW was AMAZING. Took such good care of 18 of us. Great good humor, attentive, fun, warm. Best ever. One friend was gluten allergic and he brought her a special plate of gluten-free appetizers. We felt so well taken care of. Thank you.

The whole experience was perfect! Great drinks, food and amazing service. Lily our server had amazing recommendations and made it a great experience.

Delicious food - all 4 of usnliked our respective meals - and atmosphere. Not too loud. Drew was great. Super personable and great drinks. Malena was amazing. Great suggestions and just the right amount of attentiveness.

Jaken gave us a great booth and made our experience amazing! We felt like family! And Malachi made sure the drinks never ran out and was very attentive to our needs! We will definitely be back! Thank you to the AMAZING Chef!!!! Every bite was delicious, beautifully plated and the cornbread ice cream dessert 🤯who would have thought!!!! Would come back just for that!!!!!!

In all the years that I have been going to Centro, I had never been to weekend brunch before. I've had dinner the most, some lunches as well as Happy Hour. Recently I heard people talking about the brunch and given that the summer tourist season was over, we decided to try it when not as crazy busy as summer. It was cool and windy and still not empty but moderately occupied with birthday brunch nearby as well as random groups of customers. A little chilly and though walls on our favorite summer patio in place, we chose a cheerful indoor booth. The seating coverings looked brand new and the window onto Pearl was also nice. We both ordered the chilaquiles plate and it was a bit larger than we expected. In addition to the Chilaquilles, there was guac, crema, refried beans and a sunny side fried egg. Though I dove right in before my picture (sorry you can't see the whole thing) I did remember before it was too late to show you most. We had some hot drinks on a crispy cool day which was nice too. The price was right as they have a brunch happy hour menu if you order before noon. The staff, as always, was efficient and friendly. We will be back on a warmer day, sit outside, and try out another menu item.

We used to come here often and always enjoyed the whole experience: atmosphere, food, great service so when looking for a place to have our monthly dinner with friends I made a reservation for Centro. As always we were greeted with a warm welcome and friendly smile. We got seated right away and our server asked us what we wanted to drink. I usually get the coin margarita and opted for the house margarita this time. It was delicious. For appetizers we had the cauliflower and the veggie tostada and both were flavorful and fresh. Nicely balanced with spice. For dinner, 2 of us ordered the blackened shrimp that came with chorizo albóndigas and tomatillo and potatoes in a delicious sauce that was perfectly spicy and green tasting. However, there were only 5 small shrimp and one half of a chorizo meatball. It all tasted great but it was a little skimpy on the meat. We had potatoes and tomatillos to take home for breakfast the next day. The Birria burrito was flavorful and filled with meat! The au jus added great flavor and wasn't too salty. I didn't taste the plant based dish but my friend loved it. We will keep coming back though I may not order the shrimp again.

Add this to your list of places to eat in Colorado (they have one of the best Bloody Mary's)... Let me introduce you to Centro Mexican Kitchen in Boulder, Colorado. This fun & lively restaurant on Pearl Street creates fresh and festive Mexican cuisine for brunch, lunch, happy hour, & dinner. Centro serves Brunch & Brunch Happy Hour on Saturday & Sunday from 10am to 12pm. We arrived at Centro and were seated on their outdoor patio - it was lovely with plenty of shade. The staff were attentive and radiated positivity. General Manager, Melena and Server, Molly ensured we had everything we needed while we dined. New Brunch Happy Hour menu items include things like the 'Over the Top Bloody' (serves 1-2 people) for $30. This was hands down the biggest Bloody Mary I have ever seen, and it tasted as good as it looked. It was garnished to the hilt - I'm talking grilled shrimp topped with edible gold, several strips of bacon, vegetables, & flowers. The Bloody Mary was tangy, spicy, and satisfying, making it a brunch favorite. The Horchata Toast Crunch was made with Breckenridge Vodka, horchata, chai liqueur, whipped cream, & cinnamon crunch. We loved the creativity on this brunch cocktail and who doesn't like cinnamon toast crunch? The Tomato Gazpacho was made with cucumber, red pepper, fresno chile, green onion, olive oil, & sourdough croutons. The Centro Caesar Salad was made with romaine, heirloom cherry tomatoes, grana padano cheese, popped lentils, toasted pepitas, & crispy chickpeas. We loved this Caesar Salad - there was great texture variation and a good ratio of Caesar dressing to ingredients. The Skirt Steak Taco Board was served with fresh corn tortillas, green rice, cabbage pico slaw, Mexican street corn, & spicy macha salsa. The skirt steak was juicy, meaty and went well with the warm tortillas and cool slaw. The Mexican street corn was seasoned perfectly and I loved the cotija cheese & spices on it. The Queso Benedict was made with two poached eggs, tavern ham, sourdough toast, smothered with queso. The Chilaquiles - $14 on Brunch Happy Hour - were made with tortilla chips, suiza sauce, refried beans, cotija cheese, & fried sunny side up egg. The French Toast Flight - $9 on Brunch Happy Hour - was made with strawberry, horchata, and cinnamon apple French toast. We then had the option to 'Make it toasty!' for an additional $20 which paired matching shots with each of the French toast flavors.

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the service was good. Weekends they serve brunch until 3. I don't love brunch, but they also had tacos and non-egg dishes on the brunch menu. We were party of 8, and I think we all found the food unremarkable. I had the skirt steak taco board. It was overcooked, and bland. The corn (elote) was delicious. I feel like elote and a margarita is all I need in the future.

Food is not entirely the issue. The nickel-and-dime add-on fees ($3 for a small side of salsa!!!) and exceptionally poorly trained wait staff, however, are the issue. Started with house-made guacamole and chips ($11). Chips tasted fresh but are bland like packing material. Salt is cheap (unless you ask for it and Centro will attempt to charge ya). The guacamole itself has beautiful presentation but desperately needs some acid/citrus and a bit of salsa to bring some depth of flavor. Biria Dip w/ Consume ($14): Good value and flavor, both. There is a melted cheese sear on the outside, which is great for a "french dip" style sandwich to hold the consume but mine was slightly burnt which detracted from the otherwise rich flavors. Fish Taco ($19): Fish is well battered and cooked perfectly. It better be when Centro is part of the restaurant group that brought Denver-metro Jax and Tavern. The dish comes with elote corn which was tasty, a tasty slaw and a small pan of Mexican rice along with a chili oil ramekin and aoli. The rice overpowers the delicate fish, so skip it altogether. Fortunately, there are three generous "sticks" of fish, so on taco #2, rice omitted, the dish comes together. So for food alone on this visit, 3.5 stars. Lop off another 1.5 for the service. There is a simple rule in food hospitality, REMOVE EMPTY PLATES ASAP. Certainly NEVER bring the check without clearing the "regret" from the persons paying. I would not comment on this if it were only our table. However, I looked around at six other tables that sat down near the same time, each with varying servers and ALL of the tables received the same lazy service. Centro, you are already in a dangerous location next door to BarTaco. BarTaco is a consistent product that is currently putting Centro to shame. I'm just saying, if you are going to piss on somebody else's fence and claim to be better, you need to execute on that bravado.

Wow wow wow. I loved this place so much! Between great patio seating, wonderful service and amazing food, I will for sure be back here soon. My pals and I came here after a long hike nearby, and absolutely demolished a delicious brunch. I had the breakfast enchiladas, my friends had the tacos. They also had some yummy aquas frescas for NA drinkers! Parking in this area can be a bear, so just make sure to give yourself some extra time!

New menu items : Absolutely will be back for the Macha blackened shrimp and not pictured the Spring vegetable Mole 10/10 experience and flavor of food is immaculate . The shrimp meal is so wholesome and comforting with the potatoes and beans and chorizo like wow chefs kiss. Recommend 100% service is great and on top of it! As well the new Ranch Water is yummy and refreshing .

Yum! This place has such a great atmosphere and a large menu to choose. The margaritas have many flavors and easy to find something for everyone. The tacos are done a bit unique. They come as a platter so you get to build your own similar to fajitas. I tried the shrimp habanero mango tacos and they were very flavorful. It comes with rice and street corn. The street corn is awesome! Our server was very nice but we did feel we had to wait a bit longer than normal for her to come around. Overall it was a good dining experience!

Wow what a great experience today. We went to centro for the first time and I was happy to say I was not disappointed. The horchata was great and almost chocolate taste to it. The Baja fish tacos were amazing as well. Well seasoned but the rice was terrible it was very bland and I'm not sure what the flavoring was. The salsa trio was by far my favorite part. I really enjoyed the apricot salsa the most. 5/5 will be back

This may be one of the worst places we have ever eaten. We have been sicks for 2 days. My son had a hamburger that smelled fishy. He's been violently ill for 24 hrs. The guacamole was easily the worst I have ever had. Throwing a random chickpea on top doesn't make it fancy. The Queso was flavorless and was almost all cornstarch and grainy. We will never be back.

Such a good spot for food and drinks! Fresh apps and even better tacos. Love this spot for summer dinner -- staff was super friendly too!

The food was pretty ok, and the service was fine. The place is nice and lively, and the margaritas were pretty good! My problem is that everything was SOO expensive and the portions were a bit small :/ so if you are a large person like me, maybe this won't be your favorite place. But this place is always packed and lively so it's quite fun to go with friends!

Great margarita options, great salsa selections, great, cool ambiance . The apricot habanero salsa is unlike any salsa I've had before. The margarita flight is a must. Happy hour 3-5

Best steak I've had at a Mexican restaurant. Excellent sauce, fun presentation, and huge portions. The Mezcal Margarita, had a balanced smoky flavor, not overpowering complimented by a bit of grapefruit. We'll executed and balanced. The steak and shrimp enchiladas were good, but my friend envied my steak. For American style Mexican food in a mid-tier budget range, this is hard to beat. From a value perspective, the steak was an excellent value, but the enchiladas, which were the same price, were overpriced.

So good ate the skirt steak tacos and I loved it. Num num num this app makes me add 85 characters smh

We had the queso and potato wedges for a quick snack. I am a big margarita fan and I asked the waiter if the margs were house made and good. She said yes. Got a strawberry marg and it was horrible. I did not take more than two sips and left it on the table. The waiter never asked how it was or anything. Let me pay for it and never asked what was wrong with it. Really disappointed in the$12 margarita. I recommend rio or the garage sale vintage for a good marg. The queso was good but the potato wedges came with 5 wedges. Would not come back

Found this place while looking for another...rainy night in Boulder was perfect combination for some carnitas tacos.

I really enjoyed my night at Centro! We enjoyed the salsa taster/trio and nachos as an appetizer. The salsas were all tasty and the portion of nachos was large enough to split between 4-5 people. As an entree, I liked the steak tacos. Everything was flavorful and fresh. Service was also great! A food runner spilled some sauce on our table but it was dealt with very professionally, and they were super apologetic. Our server was also kind and had great recommendations for us. Bonus tip: sit outside for the best vibes!

Went here while town with some colleagues. We tried to go here the previous night but they had a private party. The evening was a bit rainy, so no outdoor seating, which was a bummer. Inside atmosphere was fun and nicely decorated. I had a blood orange margarita and the fish tacos. I can never pass those up. Margarita was fantastic. Colleagues both got Mexican beer, which they said was good. Fish tacos came on a giant board and was entirely too much food. They were delicious and I highly recommend them.

Everything was delicious. We had fish tacos and chicken enchiladas. Side of guacamole. They leave water pitchers on the table which makes that issue easy. Nice interior and location. I liked the table chips too.

Main motivation was a good margarita... lol but since it was also lunch time , we ordered lunch too. Chips and salsa were good and ate the whole basket. Started off with a peach margarita and at the recommendation of the server, a tamarind margarita. Both were delicious. Ordered the chicken enchilada and the salmon chop salad. Salad was crips and fresh and the sauce on the enchilada was excellent. Had an additional margarita with the mezcal and subbed the grapefruit for peach. Was good and smokey.... Have to like mezcal to enjoy this one. Fun place with family of friends. Nice covered and heated outdoor area was nice too

After a quick hike near Boulder we opted to stop in downtown Boulder for brunch. Due to UC parents weekend the town was packed. But Centro had plenty of seating when we arrived so, we opted to try it. No regrets!!! I had the breakfast enchiladas with green chilies and chorizo (which had a little kick). The enchiladas just the right amount and spice. Being that it was brunch, it was nice to have a few greens served on the side. My husband got the breakfast tacos that came out as a build your own board, which we were both surprised to find. He said they were pretty good (not the best he has had) but the potatoes were Unbelievable!!! Order a side of potatoes that were cooked to perfects with a crispy outside and soft inside. They were cooked with onions and peppers in oil or butter which gave them a flavor that needed to condiments to help the taste like standard breakfast potatoes.

Came here late on a Saturday for just margaritas and dessert. I must say, I am fairly disappointed in the "Tres Leches Cafe". It's definitely not the traditional tres leches cake. The fillings itself were somewhat dry and difficult to eat. The crust is definitely very dry and requires some force to get through it with a fork.

Food, yes. Nice spice level. Good portions, value. Service - god, no. Bad bartenders. Manager (Zach) took care of my $3 beer for me waiting 15 min for water or a second drink but charged me for my $15 Paloma. Such a nice vibe spoiled by incompetent staff

Weak. Boulder's "Mexican " food scene is not good. This spot makes it worse. Way over priced for the quality, surprisingly this place has been here for years.

Went as a small group for dinner. Good, safe bet. Everyone had a good meal. Couple of clunkers, but nothing too bad. Got the Mango Habernero Shrimp tacos. Festival Corn side was great. Tacos were good, but should have asked for flour tortillas. The corn ones were out of a bag, and no great shakes. Drink selection, not so much joy here. The hibiscus cider came in a can and tasted of it. They comp'd me and gave me a pinot nior on the house. (-hard pass on the cider btw)

Centro serves brunch until 2:30 on weekends which I wasn't expecting but was excited to find out. I got there right around 2:25 but my server was nice enough to give us the option for breakfast or lunch. They had some vegetarian options and are happy to make some modifications. I had the el admiral, which is kind of the basic breakfast: toast, potatoes, eggs, meat. I got avocado instead of meat and was surprised by how exotic it was! There was salsa, fingerling potatoes with some. Chilis and great overall flavor and quality of the food. We also got chips and salsa to start and the chips were amazing! The portion of salsa was a bit small though. Great Mexican breakfast!

We went for drinks and apps and had a great time. One recommendation - don't bring food before drinks - you will sell MORE DRINKS this way. I work in hospitality and saw the flaw - your bar was working too slow and you could have sold us double drinks if you had gotten drinks out before the apps... I usually will NOT order food w drinks but we were really hungry. Tell your servers and bar tenders 1- don't put on food orders till drinks are on the table 2 -bar tenders and managers - get drinks on the table so people order more drinks!

YUM. I got the soup and a side of rice and beans and was STUFFED. The chips and salsa at the beginning were so good I almost ruined my appetite. I highly suggest the food and sitting in the outdoor area.

We stopped in on our way from Estes Park to the airport, so I'm basing this review on only one visit, but I was very impressed with the food and service (thank you to our server, Lauren)! I had the chicken enchiladas with red sauce from the lunch menu and they were so delicious! The red sauce was so rich and complex and I was in heaven with the first bite. We also ordered the salsa sampler and all of those were fresh and delicious--my husband especially liked the apricot habanero salsa. It is located in the downtown Boulder area which is such a nice walkable area with plenty of restaurants and shopping.

Centro was good. You know in Boulder you're not going to get those dive Mexican joints that are great. Centro goes the complete opposite way and strives for a fancy upscale type of Mexican. The queso was okay, the Chicken Enchiladas were really tasty, the green rice was interesting and something different. Overall the food was good and I'd come back if I'm in the mood for fancy Mexican. I loved the outdoor sitting area as well. Overall a nice little Boulder spot for lunch/dinner!

We ordered The Hot and Spicy cucumber, Caesar salad, and Grilled chicken Thigh Asado. Everything tasted absolutely good, the chicken plate came with this smoky hot sauce that just topped everything!! The only negative thing I would have to say was that my tortillas were a lbit cold but since everything tasted SO good I didn't even cared.

My son and I enjoyed the lunch menu here. Market salad and taco&beyond...delicious. Best queso ever!! Service and ambiance were amazing!!

Centro is a clear case of focusing on presentation over good preparation. The food looks good, but tastes terrible. Every dish served to our party was nothing better than edible. The service was not much better and at the price Centro is charging you might as well find a decent restaurant that is worth paying the inflated Boulder prices. I had a country fried steak with chorizo country gravy and the "steak" was fried to the tenderness of a hockey puck and had about as much flavor as boiled shoe leather. The eggs were so heavily salted they were nearly inedible. I was served a coke that was so light it looked like dirty water, and when I brought it to the bartender's attention the only option I was given was to order a bottle of Mexican coke at an added cost to me. (Because changing the syrup bag would have been too hard with the sparsely filled restaurant clearly taking little of his time. TL:DR - Don't bother with Centro, expensive, bad food

Loved this place. Seems that their beer supplier is behind but the food and service were top shelf. My family has dietary restrictions and they were more than happy to accommodate. We ordered a salad and three taco boards. All the taco choices were delicious. The fish tacos were my favorite- very light and flakey. Great place and I would dine again next time I'm in Boulder

I enjoyed the food here. A bit basic, but there is passion. Our server, Jack, was especially attentive and really made the experience all the better. I super enjoyed the taco board and the chicken tortilla soup.

A great spot in Boulder, CO! The queso and nachos were delicious! I liked how they had an indoor and outdoor bar top. The service was very quick and friendly! Highly recommend!

I LOVE CENTRO!!! I've been a few times now with friends and with my family. Everyone I bring here always loves their food and the ambiance. I went last night close to closing (felt terrible about it) and the staff were incredibly kind, service was super fast, & the food was just as great as always. I usually get the Grilled Chicken Taco Board (so yummy & great size) but this time I tried the Birria Burrito. Absolutely insane 10/10!!! Always get the chips & Guacamole - so yummy & the guacamole is perfectly seasoned + I love the pico de gallo on top. I love Centro & highly recommend trying it out!

Centro never disappoints, delivering solid cocktails, great food with a friendly service in a pleasant atmosphere whether on the patio or inside. The coin margarita is not sweet, which I like, but my favorite is the passion marg just a little spicy with the right balance of sweetness (the jalapeno basil one is also very good). I highly recommend the salsa sampler with homemade chips and I especially love the apricot habanero, could eat it with a spoon! The Carne Asada is very good with big pieces of meat and to end the meal, the Tres Leches is spectacular!

The good: the food is fabulous. I had the Burria burrito. The meat inside is cooked perfectly, so soft and flavorful. The vegetables were crisp and had a delightful touch of citrus. It comes with stopping of consommé that is inspired. The rice was great too. My husband liked his salmon salad, and the salsa is fresh and crisp. However, the service was painfully slow. I ordered a side of street corn I never received, and I couldn't ask because the server never came back. We didn't get drink refills either. It took forever to get the check and we had to wander around the restaurant to track him down to pay. Good as the food is, we won't be back.

Everything was nice the only thing bad I have to say is our waiter Ashley D was a really bad waiter she was doing drugs and she wasn't present for most of our lunch

Great vibes and gas food:) our waitress was adorbs and super nice, and the service was 10/10.

Oh my, have lived here for over 4 years and never tried this place. Colorado has a lot of good Mexican food, so don't blame myself! We got lucky and got a table that just got cancelled in the outdoor seating facing Pearl street. Darn it the Master Blaster wasn't performing... because this would be the best seat to see him perform. Dinner & a show :) Had the friendliest server and we ordered below per his recommendation: 1) Mexican Hot toddy 2) queso with chorizo verde (appetizer) 3) Pork Al pastor tacos 4) goat milk tres leches Everything was pretty Epic! From the Mexican hot toddy with a subtle chocolate taste, to the perfectly moist goat tres leches which btw wasn't gamy at all like you would think goat milk would taste. Highly recommend this place for good Mexican food & fun vibes on Pearl street. Their the tacos boards are a safe bet if you are unsure on what to order. It came with this amazing unique corn cob ... it's a must try and hard to describe!

Centro Mexican Kitchen is one of my favorite places to eat in Boulder County, as it is a terrific mix of quality menu items, a unique food experience, great location, and exceptional customer service. It all starts with General Manager Bobby Mitchell, who could not be a more positive and pleasant representative of the restaurant. Kind, caring, and professional, this place reflects his high standards. I love their indoor/outdoor options, and consider them for lunch with their fun items served in a lunchbox. Their salsas and guacamole are incredible. This place really is darn good.

GROSS. I ordered the steak taco board and as soon as it was set in front of me, I could smell the steak was bad. Rancid. The steak and shrimp enchiladas and the kids chicken taquitos were also gross. The more we ate the worse it was. If you're thinking about coming here, just take your money and set it on fire instead. Woof. The service was also terrible and the restaurant was not busy. Food, service and ambiance are only checked because it wouldn't let me uncheck them.

If you want to feel your best self even while eating some dope food, go here and ask for Malena. I am sure the other servers are just as awesome but she took what could've been a normal dinner to a whole other level. In addition to great service, the food was good! Also, when they were out of certain foods, they communicated that and also gave us some guac and chips on the house. If I could be Malena's friend & have Centro's queso & beef salad weekly, I would be a happy human.

Didn't have our reservation though OpenTable had it? Very mediocre server, no personality, got forgotten (group of 7) Basically had not soda options except the bottled Coke and Mex. drinks. Came back to tell us didn't have two of the sodas we ordered??? Odd flavor in salsa flight (habanero awful, not just hot but strange flavor) Margarita marginal, not a great flavor and chuck full of ice. Beautiful mural, nice dishware but missing the essence of good food/service

Their menu is very overpriced. Overall quality of food is 3rd rate. Dishes tend to be over-spiced. Cheese dip is pretty good. You'd be better off at the two other Mexican restaurants within walking distance

The food was delicious and our waitress was very friendly and patient with us, as we met friends we hadn't seen in awhile. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.
