We enjoyed gilled red snapper, pasta, and broccolini along with beautiful cocktails and perfect wine pairings. Most of all, we were lucky to get a quiet table in the back, which enabled conversation. A memorable evening!

It was good overall! But as a long time customer, I was disappointed that our server did not ask if it was a special occasion, which it was and I circled it on OpenTable.

The pasta is outstanding. The service is personal and caring. The manager gave me a terrific wine suggestion.

While I'm no restaurant aficionado I would rank this as one of the top DMV restaurants. Excellent food, service and atmosphere.

Outstanding food. The fish I had was not particularly elaborate, but the flavors were terrific.

Centrolina was wonderful as always. I also love that I can read the menu item and still be surprised (in a very good way) by what comes to the table - inventive, creative, artistic!

Love the environment and service and starters but the entree we ordered was just flavorless. We got the pastas and it’s just buttery and that’s it. It was not satisfying to eat and worth the price we paid for.

Great experience. Food (butternut squash soup, swordfish, scallop bianca, plum tart) was outstanding. Highly recommended.

Sean

Always great cocktails and delicious food. Amy does a great job with her staff and food preparations.

We waited over 20 minutes after we were seated to be acknowledged, then another 15 to get our drinks. Overall the service wasn't great. Our server didn't seem to like how we looked, so gave most of his attention to his other tables. The food was okay, but certainly not worth the price.

Good food and service but very small portions with moderately high prices. I'm sure after spending $130 for 2 people, I'll be going to Taco Bell afterwards...

Small portions and higher prices. The food was good, but honestly, it didn’t feel much different from getting fresh ravioli from the grocery store’s refrigerated section. Service was friendly, though there’s a 5% surcharge that isn’t a tip but is said to help subsidize staff wages. Our waiter seemed a bit annoyed when we left a 15% tip because of that, which was disappointing.

My branzino was cooked perfectly.
Setting next to me were 2 women on an endless call on speaking phone. I moved to another table and they were still so loud. I told the server and her comment was a shrug.
Most restaurants that you have a $75 lunch bill would ask the people to not be on their speakerphone or to go outside

Although the food was good, I won’t go back
