What People Are Saying

"I visited this restaurant after seeing it recommended in a food review, but unfortunately, my experience did not go as I had hoped. When I arrived, the restaurant was empty, and since I had a broken foot, I was hoping to sit at a booth or a regular table. However, I was only offered a seat at the bar, with the option of waiting 20 minutes to sit outside on the patio. I ordered a pizza, which is priced at a premium compared to other places in the area. After placing my order at the bar, I was left unattended for about 35 minutes until another staff member delivered my food. During this time, I did notice another server beginning her shift, setting up her station with care and using gloves, which I appreciated. When I was ready to leave, I asked for a box. My five remaining slices were placed in a styrofoam container stacked directly on top of each other, which made them stick together. I asked if they could be placed in a regular pizza box instead, but the slices were transferred by hand without gloves, which raised some concerns for me. When I asked about this, I was told he dose not ware gloves for boxing pizza and was directed to speak with a manager. After waiting for about 10 minutes without any response from management, I decided to leave. I truly wanted to enjoy my visit here, but unfortunately, the service left me feeling unwelcome. I hope this feedback helps the restaurant improve, as I believe the potential for a much better experience is there."

"This restaurant has real class. The food is phenomenal. We had the crab cakes as an appetizer. Not only were they amazing they were the size of an apple fritter. I chose Chicken Piccata and was glad I did. It was the best I’ve ever had. My wife ordered a small salad with salmon as an add on. The salad was not remotely close to being small. The salmon was literally the size of a 4x6 photo. She will have another meal from it. Steven was our server. He was very knowledgeable, attentive, and spoke to us like regulars. He is genuine and kind. The other food I saw being served looked delicious and was large portions. If you think they are pricey you’ll get what you paid for in quality and portion. Centro thank you and retain your talent."

"I had the cavatelli, my son had the bluecheese burger, and my friend had the rigatoni. All were excellent. The coffee was great. And the complimentary bread was good. It would have been better with a little marinara sauce. Service was a little slow, but it looked like they were a little understaffed. I have eaten their pizza in the past and I like it very much. I'm going back next week to try the pizza margarita."

"Amazing service and delicious food at a fantastic price. If we lived anywhere near Des Moines, I know this place would be one of my favorite restaurants."

"We got a large half cheese, half peperonni pizza. They put extra sauce on the plain cheese but not on the Peperoni side. Crust was crispy and very fresh tasting. Great tasting cheese, though the after taste was garlicy, so definately a garclic flavor to it. Overall, I'd rate it a 7.1 out of 10."
