I have been there before. This time I ate at the bar. I had to shout to the bartender to notice me. 1/2 hour and not even the Menu. I ordered the Cesar Salad and the pork shop. There was no chicken, no branzino, no red meat in the Menu…it was only 7:15 PM…shrimp,scallops or pork shop…the Cesar salad, after 40 minutes, I had to asked for it. It never came. The pork shop was good, but to much arugula over it. The pegaito was delicious…

La Central is one of our favorite restaurants to go for dinner. Being a Monday, many restaurants are closed for business so La Central is always an excellent option. Delicious food, excellent service and a great ambiance. Will keep coming back.
