Such a great brunch!! I’ve never had such good scrambled eggs with the Uova al Tartufo. It was incredible! We got the parfait as well which was light and delicious. The French toast was a bit small. I would have preferred either three piece of the small bread slices or larger piece, it wasn’t enough for the price compared to a lot of other good quality brunches in the city that offer better portion sizes without lacking quality. That is the only thing making the a 4 star instead of 5.

Shocked at the poor reviews I see here, felt the need to speak up. My wife and I go to Bar Centrale at least once a month for brunch, dinner, drinks, as a couple, with other friends. I have brought many out of town business guests here too. Food is great, never had the same glass of wine twice, service is exceptional and the place has a great vibe. Who wrote these negative reviews? Can't believe it.

Thought we'd try this place out for a Friday morning breakfast.
In short, 1st and last visit. Saw our waiter twice, once when he took our order and 2nd when he brought the bill. Had to wait for hot water refills, wanted to order more coffee and there was pretty much ZERO service. Finally asked someone who looked like an employee to get more hot water and to get the bill.
Food was OK, I wish they would mention on the menu that the item I ordered was cold. Menu did not state as such.
No idea if they were under-staffed or our waiter was just clueless. This is why people question 20% tipping, for what exactly?

Such a shit, got a order and they say they didn't allow drivers to deliver on bike, even it was 1 km. You dont have filter in order to give orders for cars only then we have to cancel it.

Popular brunch spot! The seats are a little cramped but the food and atmosphere are excellent. I love the poached eggs with meatballs, yum!

There's street parking & a lot across from this location..so parking shouldn't be an issue.Food was decent! The server was great at suggesting which wine to try out. Very nice ambiance also!

Located in Rosedale / Summerhill on Yonge, Café Centrale is on the ground floor just under Terroni. A long narrow strip with lots of a window, some small banquets and a few bar seats, Centrale is a small cozy local joint.We enjoyed a breakfast of Yogurt Granola (good...nothing special), Avocado Toast (also good), French Toast (very good but a small portion for the cost), and Scrambled Eggs with Tartufo (also good).Meanwhile, if you just want a coffee and pastry to go there are number of options and quite a few patrons were in and out picking something up to go. Overall the service was attentive and friendly with the meal coming relatively quickly. Enjoy!

My husband and I had a wonderful early dinner here. The specialty cocktails were excellent as were the mains. I had pasta olio and pepe and my husband had the gnocchi. The bread was also delicious.
The food is wonderful. But the owners are picky about who can deliver their food, no bikes, or scooters only cars can deliver. They would add cheese to a dish they believe isn’t worth of the addition. They won’t cut your pizza. People have brought their own pizza cutter from home. I’ve visited Italy more than once and they will say this dish is meant not to have cheese but will serve you the cheese if that’s your preference. As they still want the paying customers. But not these guys. But their food is great so as long as you can accept their picking opinions then it’s worth it. But don’t good if u expect them to cater to your tastes or needs as they won’t. They won’t remove items from a dish. They won’t add items to a dish. The dish comes how they plan it to come. This’s why I only gave a 3 as they aren’t customer friendly.
