   The food was delicious and imaginative, especially the artichoke salad and the white bolognese. The homemade pasta was perfection. But the portions were small, especially for such high prices. I left hungry. I am happy and and willing to pay high prices for an excellent meal, but when the restaurant is stingy with portions, I resent it. Our waiter, however, was excellent. I think his name was Matt. He was tall, with a shaved head, and is a former chef.

   Great dining experience! Everything was perfectly prepared and was delicious. High end area at City Center and highly recommend. Plan on visiting again very soon and will also shop at the Mercato.

   I have dined here several times as I really like it. This time was not good. Our grilled octopus and the simply grilled fish of the day (halibut) were fishy and old. The octopus and beans appetizer was much smaller than on the last visit. The beans were not cooked correctly and not as flavorful. The artichoke 4 ways and Cremino dessert were bright spots of fresh creativity. Our server was great. But old seafood - never again!

   We dined outside with perfect weather. Our little dog Keeper came along. The food was outstanding. My husband had the black cod I had a chicken marsala with whole wheat wide noodle. We had the best bread plate with olive oil for dipping. We can’t wait to go back . Now I know why Centrolina is the best. Edie

   We had a lovely and delicious dinner at Centrolina. The food was scrumptious; the server was attentive; and everyone was welcoming. My husband and I have a lot of food allergies, and the server guided us, and Chef accommodated us. Our friends who were visiting are Italian, and it is very hard to meet their standards. This exceeded their very high expectations.

   For some reason extra slow service at each course. Forgot one of my orders, so it came out too late to fully enjoy. Particularly loud outside due to some work being done in alley, but servers and wait staff offered little apologies to diners.

    The food was excellent but we were unpleasantly surprised at the 5% surcharge when we received the check. It made an already pricey meal more expensive. Frankly the cost of the meal should have already factored in “operational costs” for the sake of transparency.
