I can't say enough about how amazing this place is. Perfect for a date night, the decor and setup is very chill and the space is used wisely. Highly recommend the fried calamari. Nice selection of appetizers, entrees and can't wait to try the ice box cake. Come enjoy the vibes and whatever ur palette craves and check out the specials. Outdoor seating available.

Ate here a few years ago and was not impressed. Gave them another try today. Can appreciate the size of the wings but they were not really tasty. Something weird about them. Could not eat them all.

Central Bistro never disappoints. The steak nachos taste absolutely amazing. The cesar salad w/grilled chicken was excellent. The special today was orecchietta pasta with spicy sausage and broccoli rabe, which was fantastic.
