Cafe Central Reviews
Just had my favorite Esterhausi and it was old, it crumbled, the marzipan was dry. The pastry broke into pieces. The staff very confidently expressed their opinion that it was ok as it was not made of dough. This pastry has been my favorite since childhood and I know the ingredients and the expected texture. Very disappointed with the unprofessional attitude of the staff.
This restaurant made me sick 🤢 no more third chance to this third world
Unsophisticated fast food. We dine here on December 27,2025 and when I got home it made me feel so
Sick for days that cheap spaghetti with cheap fake caviar on it. JFC! No offense, People who comes and dine here are born with pallet. That’s why the food don’t make them sick because they’re all use eating garbage.
Took my parents & husband & a few friends there for a nice dinner recently. The food was very good however our dining experience was taken to the next level (excellent !) due to our server Nicholas who without a doubt made our evening most enjoyable!
My parents are already talking about the next time they come to town that they wish to go back to Cafe Central!!
